Hi all, Looking for best practice here. I know that there are multiple ways to do logging and exception handling in asp.net, for example, using enterprise library, log4net or even post sharp for AOP style logging. However, I haven't seen that many logging/exception handling articles related to health monitoring and performance counter...
I have just discovered ASP.Net Health Monitoring - it looks awesome. I have been developing ASP.Net apps for years, and have even taken the Microsoft certs and have never seen it before. I can't believe it is so hidden. It must be one of the best kept secrets of .Net... anyway, I digress. Here is my question: I would like to use ASP.Net...

Does anyone know if I can turn on/off the monitoring and have it watch properly through code (possibly in my global.asax file on application ...
I want to create a Dashboard on each server to show it's health and the results of some daily processing. I plan to hook up shell scripts and Python programs to collect the data. Instead of writing a web-based interface, I thought it would be good to use a python based web dashboard that could render the results in various business user...
I have a Linux daemon that forks a few children and monitors them for crashes (restarting as needed). It will be great if the parent could monitor the memory usage of child processes - to detect memory leaks and restart child processes when the go beyond a certain size. How can I do this? ...
hi guys, I need a final answer to the following question! :-) I was wondering if you can enable Health Monitoring for WCF Web services. I'm hosting a number of services in IIS and configured it to send the team email notification when any exceptions are thrown.

Hi, I'm using custom healthmonitoring events in ASP.NET We recently moved to a new server with default High Trust Permissions. Literature says that healthmonitoring and custom events should work under Medium or higher trust (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb398933.aspx). Problem is - it doesn't. In less than full trust I get a...
I've been looking at JMX for monitoring application and system metrics (partially because MBeans can accessed by various tools such as JConsole). It would seem like the classes included with JMX would be useful for things like notification when metrics have exceeded thresholds. But I'm not sure they fit with the way I want to measure the...

Currently we have many applications, where each application has its own error notification and reporting mechanism, so we clearly have many problems: Lack of consistent error monitoring across different systems/applications: different GUIs, interfaces, different messages, etc. Different approaches for error notification per application...
I've got my e-mail health monitoring working fine (removed here) but when I try to get it into SQL Server it fails. When I run the stored procedure (aspnet_WebEvent_LogEvent) manualy it works OK. But no...
Hi, I am interested in the idea of using Tweets/SMS/Identica or other short text status update systems to track Observations of Daily Living (or ODLs). The basic notion is that you send status updates to Twitter or Identi.ca or perhaps just an SMS message or whatever in a format that can be later mined to show patterns. You could us...
Our server operations team has asked the web development team (ASP.NET) to provide a URL in our application, which the load balancer can ping to perform health checks. What should be executed on this page? I think we should attempt a database connection to ensure connectivity between the web and database. Anything else? ...
