Good Knowledge Is Good2Use

For the presentation/program layer, use the Server object counters if you monitor a server, or the Redirector object counters if you monitor a client computer. Exchange 2000, as well as some program-layer processes such as Web servers, has its own object counters that you use to monitor transmissions across this layer.

The Redirector object counters collect data about requests transmitted by the Workstation service. The Server object counters collect data about requests received and interpreted by the Server service. At a minimum, you should include the Total Bytes Per Second counter for both the Redirector object (for client computers that you monitor) and the Server object (for server computers).

Each of these objects provides several other counters that you might want to monitor if you suspect problems with either the Workstation or Server services:

Redirector\Current Commands
Redirector\Network Errors/sec
Redirector\Reads Denied/sec
Redirector\Writes Denied/sec
Redirector\Server Sessions Hung
Server\Sessions Errored Out
Server\Work Item Shortages
Server\Pool Paged Peak
Server\Nonpaged Pool Failures

The Sessions Errored Out counter reports automatic disconnections and sessions that end because of an error. For more accurate values for sessions that end because of an error, obtain the value for sessions timed out and reduce the Sessions Errored Out value by that amount.
