Creating a Data Collector Set From the Template

  • Article

Business Central provides a Data Collector Set template that includes the Business Central performance counters and additional performance counters for monitoring components, such as memory, physical disks, and SQL Server. You use the template to create user-defined Data Collection Sets for monitoring all Business Central Server instances on the computer that is running Business Central Server.

The Business Central data collector set template is an XML file that has the name DataCollectorSet.xml and is installed with Business Central Server. By default, the template is located in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\NNN\Service folder.

Data that is collected by a data collector set is stored in a log file that you can view in Performance Monitor.

For more general information about Data Collector Sets, see Creating Data Collector Sets.
