Client Service For NetWare Object

The Client Service For NetWare performance object consists of counters that measure packet transmission rates, logons, and connections.

Bytes Total/sec

Bytes Total/sec is the rate the Redirector is processing data bytes. This includes all application and file data in addition to protocol information such as packet headers.

Detail Level: Novice
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

File Data Operations/sec

File Data Operations/sec is the rate the Redirector is processing data operations. One operation includes (hopefully) many bytes. We say hopefully here because each operation has overhead. You can determine the efficiency of this path by dividing the Bytes/sec by this counter to determine the average number of bytes transferred/operation.

Detail Level: Novice
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packets/sec

Packets/sec is the rate the Redirector is processing data packets. One packet includes (hopefully) many bytes. We say hopefully here because each packet has protocol overhead. You can determine the efficiency of this path by dividing the Bytes/sec by this counter to determine the average number of bytes transferred/packet. You can also divide this counter by Operations/sec to determine the average number of packets per operation, another measure of efficiency.

Detail Level: Novice
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Bytes Received/sec

Bytes Received/sec is the rate of bytes coming in to the Redirector from the network. It includes all application data as well as network protocol information (such as packet headers.)

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Packets Received/sec

Packets Received/sec is the rate at which the Redirector is receiving packets (also called SMBs or Server Message Blocks). Network transmissions are divided into packets. The average number of bytes received in a packet can be obtained by dividing Bytes Received/sec by this counter. Some packets received might not contain incoming data, for example an acknowledgment to a write made by the Redirector would count as an incoming packet.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Bytes Transmitted/sec

Bytes Transmitted/sec is the rate at which bytes are leaving the Redirector to the network. It includes all application data as well as network protocol information (such as packet headers and the like.)

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Packets Transmitted/sec

Packets Transmitted/sec is the rate at which the Redirector is sending packets (also called SMBs or Server Message Blocks). Network transmissions are divided into packets. The average number of bytes transmitted in a packet can be obtained by dividing Bytes Transmitted/sec by this counter.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

File Read Operations/sec

File Read Operations/sec is the rate at which applications are asking the Redirector for data. Each call to a file system or similar Application Program Interface (API) call counts as one operation.

Detail Level: Novice
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Read Operations Random/sec

Read Operations Random/sec counts the rate at which, on a file-by-file basis, reads are made that are not sequential. If a read is made using a particular file handle, and then is followed by another read that is not immediately the contiguous next byte, this counter is incremented by one.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Read Packets/sec

Read Packets/sec is the rate at which read packets are being placed on the network. Each time a single packet is sent with a request to read data remotely, this counter is incremented by one.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

File Write Operations/sec

File Write Operations/sec is the rate at which applications are sending data to the Redirector. Each call to a file system or similar Application Program Interface (API) call counts as one operation.

Detail Level: Novice
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Write Operations Random/sec

Write Operations Random/sec is the rate at which, on a file-by-file basis, writes are made that are not sequential. If a write is made using a particular file handle, and then is followed by another write that is not immediately the next contiguous byte, this counter is incremented by one.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Write Packets/sec

Write Packets/sec is the rate at which writes are being sent to the network. Each time a single packet is sent with a request to write remote data, this counter is incremented by one.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Server Sessions

Server Sessions counts the total number of security objects the Redirector has managed. For example, a logon to a server followed by a network access to the same server will establish one connection, but two sessions.

Detail Level: Novice
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Server Reconnects

Server Reconnects counts the number of times your Redirector has had to reconnect to a server in order to complete a new active request. You can be disconnected by the Server if you remain inactive for too long. Locally even if all your remote files are closed, the Redirector will keep your connections intact for (nominally) ten minutes. Such inactive connections are called Dormant Connections. Reconnecting is expensive in time.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connect NetWare 2.x

Connect NetWare 2.x counts connections to NetWare 2.x servers.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connect NetWare 3.x

Connect NetWare 3.x counts connections to NetWare 3.x servers.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connect NetWare 4.x]

Connect NetWare 4.x counts connections to NetWare 4.x servers.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Server Disconnects

Server Disconnects counts the number of times a Server has disconnected your Redirector. See also Server Reconnects.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Packet Burst Read NCP Count/sec

Packet Burst Read NCP Count/sec is the rate of NetWare Core Protocol requests for Packet Burst Read. Packet Burst is a windowing protocol that improves performance.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packet Burst Read Timeouts/sec

Packet Burst Read Timeouts/sec is the rate the NetWare Service needs to retransmit a Burst Read Request because the NetWare server took too long to respond.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packet Burst Write NCP Count/sec

Packet Burst Write NCP Count/sec is the rate of NetWare Core Protocol requests for Packet Burst Write. Packet Burst is a windowing protocol that improves performance.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packet Burst Write Timeouts/sec

Packet Burst Write Timeouts/sec is the rate the NetWare Service needs to retransmit a Burst Write Request because the NetWare server took too long to respond.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packet Burst IO/sec

Packet Burst IO/sec is the sum of Packet Burst Read NCPs/sec and Packet Burst Write NCPs/sec.

Detail Level: Advanced
Counter Type: PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER
