Our Production MOSS 2007 environment has been experiencing performance issues throughout most of the morning. How could I do a high level check to see if we are seeing any evidence of a performance issue on the web/app and/or database tiers. Yashwanth

hi the good tool to start investigation in case of performance issues is Windows Performance Monitor (see Perfmon ). It has many counters including ASP.Net requests per second, disk ussage, etc. Another option is to use some watch dog server application, e.g. Nagios .Blog - http://sadomovalex.blogspot.com CAML via C# - http://camlex.codeplex.com

Yashwanth You can use perfmon and use its counters to monitor the health of the process, for ASP.NET you can use the following counters to measure the performance of a web app. This MSDN article will be helpful in monitoring the health using Perfmon ASP.NET\ Requests Queued ASP.NET Applications\ Requests In Application Queue ASP.NET\ Requests Rejected ASP.NET\ Requests Wait Time ASP.NET\Requests Current ASP.NET Applications\Requests Executing ASP.NET Applications\ Requests Timed Out for a Web Farm wide health monitoring, you should use Microsoft System Center operations manager along with the Management Pack.Aravind http://aravindrises.blogspot.com

Thanks Aravind I've scheduled perfmon with the counters you mentioned Hope I'll find some clue to resolve the performance issue...Yashwanth

Found one more tool for performance monitoring Sharepoint Performance monitor from Idera. Hope it helps.Aravind http://aravindrises.blogspot.com

Aravind, We are using Idera on SP2010 servers.. As of now we do not have Idera on MOSS2007 servers.. We are facin performance issues on MOSS2007 serversYashwanth

Is there a version of Idero for SP 2007. If not I'll remove the posts involving it as off-topic.

@Mike You can use Idera SharePoint Diagnostic Manager for SharePoint 2010, MOSS2007 SP1 and WSS 3.0 SP1 Just my 2 cents. Moderator Note: Thanks. The posts stay then.
