The document provides an overview of monitoring tools and techniques for Windows Server 2008 network infrastructure, focusing on performance monitoring, event logs, and establishing performance baselines. It includes demonstrations on creating data collector sets, configuring alerts, and creating custom views for event logs. Additionally, a lab scenario is presented to practice these monitoring techniques, emphasizing the importance of performance baselines and event subscriptions for server health assessment.

- 1. Module 14 Monitoring Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Servers
- 2. Module Overview • Monitoring Tools • Using Performance Monitor • Monitoring Event Logs
- 3. Lesson 1: Monitoring Tools • What Is Performance Monitor? • What Is Resource Monitor? • What Is Reliability Monitor? • What Is Event Viewer?
- 4. What Is Performance Monitor?
- 5. What Is Resource Monitor?
- 6. What Is Reliability Monitor?
- 7. What Is Event Viewer?
- 8. Lesson 2: Using Performance Monitor • Why Use a Baseline? • What Are Data Collector Sets? • Demonstration: How to Capture Counter Data with a Data Collector Set • Demonstration: How to Configure an Alert • Demonstration: How to View Performance Monitor Reports • Monitoring Network Infrastructure Services
- 9. Why Use a Baseline? Establishing a baseline for comparative purposes enables you to: • Interpret performance trends • Perform capacity planning • Identify bottlenecks Calculating performance baselines for your server environment allows you to more accurately interpret real-time monitoring information
- 10. What Are Data Collector Sets? Data Collector Sets can contain the following types of data collectors: • Performance counters • Event trace data • System configuration information Data Collector Sets enable you to gather performance- related and other system statistics for analysis
- 11. Demonstration: How to Capture Counter Data with a Data Collector Set This demonstration shows how to: • Create a data collector set • Create a disk load on the server • Analyze the resulting data in a report
- 12. Demonstration: How to Configure an Alert This demonstration shows how to: • Create a data collector set with an alert counter • Generate a load on the server to exceed configured threshold • Examine event log for resulting event
- 13. Demonstration: How to View Performance Monitor Reports This demonstration shows how to: • View a performance report
- 14. Monitoring Network Infrastructure Services Intranet Internet DHCP Server DNS Server Active Directory Perimeter Network
- 15. Lesson 3: Monitoring Event Logs • What Is a Custom View? • Demonstration: How to Create a Custom View • What Are Event Subscriptions? • Demonstration: How to Configure an Event Subscription
- 16. What Is a Custom View?
- 17. Demonstration: How to Create a Custom View This demonstration shows how to: • View Server Roles custom views • Create a custom view
- 18. What Are Event Subscriptions? Event Subscriptions allow you to collect event logs from multiple computers and store them locally
- 19. Demonstration: How to Configure an Event Subscription This demonstration shows how to: • Configure the source computer • Configure the collector computer • Create and view the subscribed log
- 20. Lab: Monitoring Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Servers • Exercise 1: Establishing a Performance Baseline • Exercise 2: Identifying the Source of a Performance Problem • Exercise 3: Centralizing Events Logs Estimated time: 60 minutes Logon information Virtual machines 6421B-NYC-DC1 6421B-NYC-SVR1 User name ContosoAdministrator Password Pa$$w0rd
- 21. Lab Scenario Having recently deployed some new servers, it is important to establish a performance baseline with a typical load for these new servers. You are tasked with undertaking this project. In addition, to make the process of performance monitoring easier, you decide to implement a subscribed log for the new servers so that you can efficiently determine server health.
- 22. Lab Review • During the lab, you collected data in a data collector set. What is the advantage of collecting data in this way?
- 23. Module Review and Takeaways • Review Questions • Tools
