Windows DNS perf stats

[wiseguy_pt]

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has come up with DNS stats for the following counters:
Recursive Queries/sec
Recursive Query Failure/sec
Recursive TimeOuts/sec
Total Query Received/sec
Total Response Sent/sec

I pm'd you these as well, but thought I'd post them for general use as well. Sorry I don't have time to create data templates...you can use my previous DNS data template as a reference as far as data item type (counter, etc). Run these from command line to see what all is returned...and custom build your data template to use the items you want.

Here's some more info for you "advanced" people

If you copy one of the scripts attached above, and find the line where it says

my $computers = $wmi->ExecQuery("SELECT $properties FROM $Win32_Class Where CollectionId='#'");

...you can change the # to any one of the following numbers and it will get you:
1 - Time Stats
2 - Query and Response Stats
4 - Query Stats
8 - Recursion Stats
16 - Master Stats
32 - Secondary Stats
64 - WINS Referral Stats
256 - Packet Dynamic Update Stats
512 - Security Stats
1024 - DS Integration Stats
2048 - Internal Dynamic Update Stats
65536 - Memory Stats
131072 - Timeout Stats
262144 - Database Stats
524288 - Record Stats
1048576 - Packet Memory Usage Stats
2097152 - Nbstat Memory Usage Stats
4194304 - Error Stats
8388608 - Query

I have no idea what most of them are, or why there at two "query" sections, but thought I'd provide this for any of you who might want some VERY detailed information on your W2K3 DNS

[wiseguy_pt]

There are 2 query sections for UDP and TCP queries

for reference take a look at

Again, thanx for the help, time and info...

DevilSun, do you have time now to create the graph templates? It's been almost a year...
