Useful Operational Insights Search Query Collection

[Edited October 27th 2014 - System Center Advisor is now a part of the new Microsoft Azure Operational Insights - Click to learn more]

This is a living document that will be periodically updated to collect useful, well-known, or sample queries to use in the Search experience in Microsoft Azure Operational Insights .

I dump new useful searches here as I come up with or stumble into them. Will keep this post periodically updated, so check it from time to time or subscribe to it.

These are some of the queries I use in my own workspace’s dashboard

My Dashboard in System Center Advisor

I hope this will provide useful examples to learn from… but reminder the full query language reference is published here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=394544 when you don’t understand why a given search magically works (or doesn’t) in your environment Smile

They are grouped by broad categories that generally map to the Intelligence Pack that produces a specific ‘Type’ of data. We also have documentation on the Types we use in various intelligence packs and the meaning of their fields here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn884648.aspx

 

General Exploration Queries

Which Management Group is generating the most data points?
* | Measure count() by ManagementGroupName

Distribution of data Types
* | Measure count() by Type

List all Computers
ObjectName!="Advisor Metrics" ObjectName!=ManagedSpace | measure max(SourceSystem) by Computer | Sort Computer

List all Computers with their most recent data's timestamp
ObjectName!="Advisor Metrics" ObjectName!=ManagedSpace | measure max(TimeGenerated) by Computer | Sort Computer

List all Computers whose last reported data is older than 4 hours
ObjectName!="Advisor Metrics" ObjectName!=ManagedSpace ObjectName!="Advisor Metrics" ObjectName!=ManagedSpace | Measure Max(TimeGenerated) as LastData by Computer | Where LastData<NOW-4HOURS | Sort Computer

Note – the ObjectName!= filters in the three queries above is just a workaround to filter out some performance data whose target object in SCOM is NOT a ‘Computer’, hence will have a improper value in that field.

Note#2 – if you see ‘duplicate’ computer names (the NETBIOS name and the FQDN for the same machine listed as distinct computer), this might be due to IIS Logs – see post here where I describe the issue with the ‘Computer’ field https://blogs.technet.com/b/momteam/archive/2014/09/19/iis-log-format-requirements-in-system-center-advisor.aspx . If you know you have *other* data for that computer for sure – not just IIS logs - you can then easily filter those out (another workaround) and the last query above now becomes

Type!=W3CIISLog ObjectName!="Advisor Metrics" ObjectName!=ManagedSpace ObjectName!="Advisor Metrics" ObjectName!=ManagedSpace | Measure Max(TimeGenerated) as LastData by Computer | Where LastData<NOW-4HOURS | Sort Computer

 

Alert Management

Note – if you have been using System Center Advisor Preview, Type=Alert used to be wired to the alerts generated by Advisor Configuration Assessment scenario. With the introduction of ‘Alert Management’ Intelligence pack, which pulls up your Operations Manager Alerts into Operational Insights search, we have re-used Type=Alert for these ‘real’ and ‘reactive’ alerts, and have renamed the Advisor ‘legacy’ alerts (Configuration Assessment Alerts) to Type=ConfigurationAlert. You might need no update your saved searches.

Alerts raised during the past 1 day grouped by their severity
Type=Alert TimeRaised>NOW-1DAY | measure count() as Count by AlertSeverity

Alerts raised during the past 1 day sorted by their repeat count value
Type=Alert TimeRaised>NOW-1DAY | sort RepeatCount desc

Alerts raised during the past 24 hours which are now closed
Type=Alert TimeRaised>NOW-24HOUR AlertState=closed

Last Modified time for Alerts raised during the past 24 hours which are now closed
Type=Alert TimeRaised>NOW-24HOUR AlertState=closed | measure Max(TimeLastModified) by AlertName

Critical alerts raised during the past 24 hours
Type=Alert AlertSeverity=error TimeRaised>NOW-24HOUR

Critical alerts raised during the past 24 hours which are still active
Type=Alert AlertSeverity=error TimeRaised>NOW-24HOUR AlertState!=closed

Sources with active alerts raised during the past 24 hours
Type=Alert AlertState!=closed TimeRaised>NOW-24HOUR | measure count() as Count by SourceDisplayName

Warning alerts raised during the past 24 hours
Type=Alert AlertSeverity=warning TimeRaised>NOW-24HOUR

 

Capacity (Aggregated Performance Data)

All performance data
Type=PerfHourly

Average CPU utilization by Top 5 machines
* Type=PerfHourly CounterName="% Processor Time" InstanceName="_Total" | Measure avg(SampleValue) as AVGCPU by Computer | Sort AVGCPU desc | Top 5

Max CPU time used by HyperV by machine
Type=PerfHourly CounterName="% Total Run Time" InstanceName="_Total"  ObjectName="Hyper-V Hypervisor Logical Processor" | Measure max(Max) as MAXCPU by Computer | Where MAXCPU>0

CPU Utilization by VM/Virtual Core
Type=PerfHourly ObjectName="Hyper-V Hypervisor Virtual Processor" CounterName="% Guest Run Time" NOT(InstanceName="_Total") | Measure Avg(SampleValue) by InstanceName

Memory Utilization by VM/Virtual Core

Top Hosts with Highest Core Utilization
CounterName="% Core Utilization" Type=PerfHourly | Measure Avg(SampleValue) by Computer 

Top Hosts with Highest Memory Utilization
CounterName="% Memory Utilization" Type=PerfHourly | Measure Avg(SampleValue) by Computer 

Top Hosts with Inefficient VMs
CounterName="NumberVMOverUtilized" or CounterName="NumberVMIdle" or CounterName="NumberVMPoweredOff" Type=PerfHourly | Measure Avg(SampleValue) by Computer 

Top Hosts by Utilization (mathematical average of CPU and Memory usage counters)
CounterName="% Core Utilization" or CounterName="% Memory Utilization" Type=PerfHourly | Measure Avg(SampleValue) as CombinedCPUMemAvg by Computer

Configuration Assessment (Legacy Advisor Scenario)
NOTE: For the legacy Advisor Configuration Assessment scenario, in addition to the old Silverlight screens, some data is also indexed in the new Search feature for exploration purposes. Records of Type=ConfigurationObject are indexed and updated every time an object is discovered (or re-discovered) by Advisor Configuration Assessment. There are also records of Type=ConfigurationObjectProperties that represent the properties of those objects. These are only inserted in the index when their VALUE has CHANGED since the previous known value Advisor had discovered till the previous discovery. This is somewhat similar to ‘Change Tracking’ Intelligence Pack, but less sophisticated. Also records of Type=ConfigrationAlert are indexed once those Configuration Assessment Alerts are fired (each time, even if it is a ‘repeat’ i.e. because the HealthService has restarted) on Advisor agents by Advisor Configuration Assessment Alert Rules you are not ignoring.

All 'Advisor Managed' Computers that have reported Configuration Assessment data
