Monitoring for SharePoint Applications

Most of time your SharePoint Front-end is already discovered by the IIS management pack. To be able to monitor SharePoint application monitoring, will use the .NET Application Performance Monitoring template. Then, the APM agent will collect and analyze data to monitor performance. The agent will:

• Collect relevant SharePoint method parameters from SharePoint servers, API calls and Web Part calls containing Application Diagnostics Events,
• Track the execution times for the slowest calls to collect names of slow web parts and their locations in the pages.

Prerequisites

We must install:

• Operations Manager Web Console
• Import the IIS 7.0 management pack (Microsoft.Windows.InternetInformationServices.2008.mp)
• Import the Operations Manager APM Web IIS 7 management pack (Microsoft.SystemCenter.Apm.Web.IIS7.mp).
• Deploy Agents on Front-end servers

Reports

• Resources Utilization
• The raw performance data about the site can be seen at the URL: http://localhost/AppDiagnostics/ on the SCOM server.
• Graph for Performance data
• All of the available APM performance data can be viewed if we create a pivot view, filter on the "Operations Manager APM Library", and break this down by the available counters. This will be shown in a SCOM Performance Cube.
