Hi, I have a php site about to go live (With Flex on the UI side) and was wondering what my options are for monitoring. I'm looking for some form of api which is the equivalent to .NET performance counters/ASP.NET health monitoring. Ideally, I would like to get stuff like requests queued/responses served in ms, and related stats so I c...
Hi ... It seems like something like this should exist, but I have never heard of it and would find such a utility to be incredibly useful. Many times, I develop applications that have a database backed - SQL Server or Oracle. During development, end users of the app are encouraged to test the site - I can verify this by looking for entr...
My office is cursed with a very unreliable network. From time to time things just seem to stop working - the servers are all fine. We think the fault lies in the wires and routers between our computers. My team looks after a large number of Windows servers and workstations. Each PC runs a number of distributed applications, hence any c...
I am writing somewhat of a proxy program in Java. Here's how it works: The browser will be connected to the program. Any requests by the browser will be first be printed out to standard out, then forwarded to the server. The server then returns a response, which is also printed to standard out, then forwarded back to the browser. My ...
We develop a web app that manages files and resources for different users to download throughout the day on a web server with very limited upstream bandwidth. Is there any way to monitor in real time how much upstream bandwidth is being taken up by individual connections to IIS (7.0)? Ideally we'd like way to see a list of each activ...
Hello all, I use to be on a shared host and I could use there standard tools to look at bandwidth graph. I now have my sites running on a dedicated server and I have no idea whats going on :P sigh I have installed webmin on my Fedora core 10 machine and I would like to monitor bandwidth. I was about to setup the bandwidth module and i...
I'm looking to monitor the end user experience of our website and link that with timing information already logged on the server side. My assumption is that this will require javascript to to capture time stamps at the start of request (window.onbeforeunload) and at the end of loading (window.onload). Basically this - "Measuring Web appl...
Part 1: In a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 failover scenario, how can the databases be queried to determine which server is the master and which server is the slave? I'm looking for something more elegant than attempting to query on the server and see which one throws an exception. Part 2: Is there a way to monitor and determine when the ...
Suppose I have a file, urls.txt, that contains a list of URLs I'm monitoring. My monitoring script edits that file occasionally, say, to indicate whether each URL is reachable. I'd like to also manually edit that file, to add to or change the list of URLs. How can I allow that such that I don't have to think about it when manually edi...
Our Operations department is getting twitchy about too many monitoring tools so are there any tools that can handle SNMP, JMX and TIBCO Hawk all in one application? ...
Are there SQL commands that I could use to extract performance monitoring data from MS SQL 2005, such as: transactions per second page reads/writes connections (@@CONNECTIONS gives the total, but what about current) physical reads locks and blocks other counters that might be interesting? ...
I would like to be able to measure network traffic and limit it. I'm looking for something that lets me know between two calls how much data has been sent and received. Also, I would like to be able to limit network traffic (in & out) for my app. Something like the NetLimiter software (great app!) but which I can control from my code. ...
What would be the best way to expose information from an ASP.NET webservice to SCOM or WMI? I'm interested in basically exposing performance information so the service can be monitored: ie. get a metric of calls processed per hour, total calls per day, etc. EDIT: This would have to run under standard ASP.NET permissions ...
Hey all, I am just wondering if its possible to trace MySQL queries on my linux server as they happen? For example I'd love to set up some sort of listener, then request a web page and view all of the queries the engine executed, or just view all of the queries being run on a production server. Are there tools to do this? Thank you, ...
I would like to set up a SQL Server 2008 Alert to notify me when any procedure executes for 1 second or longer (just an example). Any ideas? EDIT: Okay, it seems this is not possible. But, just to nudge you in another direction, I know that there are statistics tables in the master database which hold compilation counts, number of cal...
1st of all: I'm not programmer, neither Linux guru, just have to work with Linux, Oracle, shell scripts. My current task is to monitor a table in Oracle (tool: sqlplus), and if it contains a certain row, then watch a linux directory for a growing tmp file, and log its attributes (e.g. ls -l), in every 5 second. The most important part...
In order to control costs, we are trying to determine if we have purchased more Crystal Enterprise CALs than we need. We can see the current number of concurrent users by going to the Central Management Console and going to Settings > Metrics. However, it has no high water mark or other way to show what the normal peak for total open con...

I'm looking for a cross-platform file monitoring python package? I know it is possible to monitor files on windows usung pywin32, and there are packages working on Linux/Unix but does anyone know about a cross-platform one? ...
What good tools can I use to monitor IIS. What is included seems to be not as useful as I'd like. I realize I can add performance counters; those don't tell me very much; it's just a collections of properties that are plugged into a generic graphing tool. I have problems with old legacy applications hanging and various and sundry other ...
