Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Current_conns |
The number of TCP connections currently established by clients to the Microsoft RDS server. |
Number |
This measure directly indicates the loading on the Microsoft RDS server from clients. Typically one connection is established per active session to the Microsoft RDS server. |
| New_conns_added |
The number of new TCP connections initiated by clients to the Microsoft RDS server during the last measurement period. |
Number |
Tracking the new connections over time can provide an indication of when
clients login to the Microsoft RDS server. A spurt of connections and disconnections may be indicative of sporadic failures of the Microsoft RDS server. |
| Old_conns_removed |
The number of TCP connections that were removed because the clients may
have disconnected from the Microsoft RDS server during the last measurement period. |
Number |
A large number of sudden connection drops may be early warning indicators of problems with the Microsoft RDS server. |
| Avg_conn_duration |
This measure reports the average duration of connections that are currently
established to the Microsoft RDS server. The duration of a connection is measured from its start time to the current time. The accuracy of this
measurement is limited by the frequency at which this test is run. |
Mins |
This value can provide an indicator of how long clients stay connected to a
Microsoft RDS server. This information together with the number of simultaneous clients can be useful for capacity planning in Terminal
server environments (i.e., how to size the Microsoft RDS server). |
