perfmon counter using check_ncpa for Microsoft exchange

[Keystone]

Hello,

i am trying to use Check_ncpa.py to collect the performance counters for ms exchange,

./check_ncpa.py -H server-t 'token' -P 5693 -M 'windowscounters/MSExchangeIS/RPC Averaged Latency'
OK: \MSExchangeIS\RPC Averaged Latency was 0 c | '\MSExchangeIS\RPC Averaged Latency'=0c;;;

i always get 0c as a result for any MSExchange while other counters work

./check_ncpa.py -H server-t 'token' -P 5693 -M 'windowscounters/Memory/Available MBytes'
OK: \Memory\Available MBytes was 92087.00 Available MBytes | '\Memory\Available MBytes'=92087.00;;;

We have 2.1.6 of NCPA installed on the server.

So the questions is ,
can NCPA read MSExchange related performance counters? if not what are my options out of box? Or create a powershell script to get the counter value and read it in nagios

What version of Exchange?

Do those counters actually exist?

Code: Select all

TypePerf.exe –q > counters1.txt

OR

Powershell (as admin):

Code: Select all

get-counter > counters2.txt

Thank you,

You can close this. we were able to find the right counter for 2013 exchange and the check_ncpa was able to get the values.

Thanks
