How to get NServiceBUS performance Counter to Work??

Question

Hi

I've setup NServiceBus to run in production profile. I've also executed the runner.exe which "reinstalls" the performance counter "critical time" under NServicebus. But when I run my application and tries to enable the counter in perfmon, I get an "no instance" under the NServicebus critical timer. Any help one this one? Thanks.

Answer 1

You need to open up perfmon after the NServiceBus process is already running otherwise it doesn't pick up the instance.

Answer 2

I got this to work by using the NServiceBus.PerformanceCounters profile when installing my service. If you use the NServiceBus.Production profile, it does not set up the counter. To get the behaviour of both, pass both profiles along on the install(http://nservicebus.com/Profiles.aspx).
