Performance counters

Applies to: SQL Server Analysis Services Azure Analysis Services Fabric/Power BI Premium

By using Performance Monitor, you can monitor the performance of an Analysis Services instance with performance counters.

Azure Analysis Services uses Azure Metrics Explorer in the portal. To learn more, see Monitor Azure Analysis Services server metrics.

Performance Monitor is a Microsoft Management Control (MMC) snap-in that tracks resource usage. You can start the MMC snap-in by typing in PerfMon at the command prompt or from Control Panel by clicking Administrative Tools, then Performance Monitor. Performance Monitor lets you track server and process performance and activity by using predefined objects and counters, and monitor events by using user-defined counters. Performance Monitor collects counts instead of data about the events, for example, memory usage, number of active transactions, or CPU activity. You can also set thresholds on specific counters to generate alerts that notify operators.

Performance Monitor can monitor remote and local instances of SQL Server Analysis Services or SQL Server. For more information, see Using Performance Monitor.

To see the description of any counter that can be used with SQL Server SQL Server Analysis Services, in Performance Monitor, open the Add Counters dialog box, select a performance object, and then click Show Description. The most important counters are CPU usage, memory usage, disk IO rate. It is recommended you start with these important counters, and move to more detailed counters when you have a better idea of what else could be improved through monitoring. For more information about which counters to include, see the SQL Server 2008 R2 Operations Guide.

Counters are grouped so you can more easily find related counters.
