MSExchangeIS perl sample code
The foundations for Manageability in Windows is Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI; formerly WBEM) and WMI extensions for Windows Driver Model (WDM).
ActiveXperts Network Monitor provides the ability to build monitor check routines based on WMI. ActiveXperts has collected more than a hundred WMI samples. You can use these samples as a base for new check routines you can write yourself. The MSExchangeIS WMI class can be used in ActiveXperts Network Monitor to monitor your servers.
Description
For this object, monitor the following counters:
- User Count - This displays the number of people currently using the Information Store (not the number of connections). It is impossible to properly judge the performance of a server running Exchange unless you know how many people are using it.
- RPC Requests - This shows the number of client requests currently being processed by the store. You should expect this figure to be fairly small, typically below 25. If it is consistently higher than this, your server is overloaded.
