  • 아티클

UPDATE :

MBV is deprecated. and is now replaced by BizTalk Health Monitor (aka BHM)

BHM is a complete MMC Snap-in reusing  the same health check engine and architecture than MBV, but its query/rule repository is updated frequently to detect all recent BizTalk issues.
BHM can be included in the BizTalk console, provides a rich UI, is fully customizable, and embed a new version of famous Terminator tool as remediation component.

See the BHM blog for all info on this powerfull BizTalk Health Check application :

https://blogs.msdn.com/b/biztalkhealthmonitor/archive/2014/06/26/overview-of-biztalk-health-monitor-bhm.aspx

Download here BHM :

Feel feel to let your feedbacks or post your questions on the BHM blog

    Hi Jukka, Thanks for this sugestion but I just would like to understand it better, as currently in the BizTalk Console of BizTak 2006 you can see in the "Resources" node all assembly resources per Application. Is it what you want or do you want to have a larger view not specific to assemblies ? thanks JP

    Hello, realy sorry to reply so late to your demand but I was quite busy these past days MBV  can be used on any types of servers and not only on BizTalk Servers, so the best in your case would be for example to run MBV on a server belonging to the same doamin than your bizTalk group but using .NET > 1.x.If you do not have a such server in your BizTalk domain, I can try to put the hand on old version  but I just need to rememebr where I could save such build ;-) I keep you informed as soon I have one Thanks !

    Hi Peter, All the repository of MBV tool is currently emdbeded in the dll provided with the tool  and encoded and is not exposed in a .XML file (even if MBV supports to load an XML repository file). It is was choice util now to not expose the queries (SQL, WMI, VBS,etc...) because we did not want to have these queries used elsewhere  outside the scope of the tool. If you have specific demand for some queries let me know and I can send them to you on demand if there is nothing "internal " inisde and if they are not sensitive. Now nothing prevent you to run SQL profiler to see SQL queries;-) but I'm sure you wil understand that MS can not be responsible of the impact if the tool queries would be executed outside the tool as we can not validate how they will be used. Thanks JP

I'll send you a video clip of any administrator course that includes a demo of this tool in our online classes at www.biztalktrainers.com

    Hi Lex, sorry to reply only now, I was quite busy in my job and did not look at MBV blog recently. The rule checkintg for MarkLog table is located in the Query "MsgBox Tables Size sorted by Custom order"  in the query category  titled "Important". In MBV gui just select this query in the list and then select the tab "Query Rules" in the right pane of MBV and you will see this rule; to see its details just press the "Show rules Details". let me know if you have any issue to locate it and thanks to use MBV; I really hope that it help you to keep a healthy BizTalk System ! ;-) JP

    Hi Jean-Pierre, I wanted to write an article about how to get rid of records in the MarkLog table(s) and wanted to use MessageBoxViewer to show a warning in case you have too many records. I am using v1.10 but I can't find the query which checks the MarkLog table(s). Is the query still there? I have 150.000+ records in the MarkLog table of my BizTalkMgmtDb. Hope to hear from you! Best regards, Lex

    Hi Mike, your remark make sens but I remember that I already tried this initally and I met some errors;but let me some time this week to investigate that; I already had this remark before and I understand the need. FYI, this script is comming directly from known Biztalk architect Lee Graber; he reused known 'sp_who' that he modified to help our suport teams to troubleshoot BizTalk Locking situations in the MsgBox.

    It would be nice if the viewer would report Biztalk Application for each artifact. Even better if the artifacts could be grouped under Applications. We have a BTS group with tens of Applications and hundreds of ports and orchestrations. We are planning a migration to a HA environment and need to analyze/report which adapters and hosts an application needs.

    Hi JP In the section "Most CPU Queries (SQL 2K5 only)", MBV shows the entire sp text. This makes it quite cumbersome to read. Could you show only the names of the sprocs? Thanks, Manuel

    Does this version of MBV run also on X64 platform ?

    Ok, launched the current version on X64 - it launches OK.

  • Anonymous
    July 02, 2009
    Hi Tskika, Yes it is running ok on x64 Some important info however :

  1. As MBV is 32 bits, some queries of REGISTRY type will look ONLY in the 32 bit portion of the registry of a x64 (limitation of .NET) ! so if some reg entries of your 32 registry have different values (ex for MSDTC) than the x64, some results can be wrong in the report. I will workaround that in a futur release by creating .VBS queries to access regkeys in VBS scripts instead of doing that in C#.
  2. Remember anwyay that you can run MBV on any server and not only BT Server. When runnin on a non-BT server, you just have to specify manually the BizTalk Mgmt db location.

    Hi JP, MBV gives me the warning below on my BizTalk servers and SQL Server: MSDTC Settings on Server Maybe Not configured correctly (Current flags : 'NetworkDtcAccess'=0-'NetworkDtcAccessInbound'=0-'NetworkDtcAccessOutbound'=0-) ! However, I know MSDTC is working. DTCPing, DTCTester and BizTalk 2009 SQL adapter all works fine.  May be the registry settings on the servers are different than what MBV expected due to 64-bit OS? BizTalk Server ============== OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64-bit BizTalk: BizTalk 2009 Enterprise (3.8.368.0) SQL Server ============= OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64-bit SQL: SQL Server 2008 Enterprise 64-bit

    I am a DBA and need to provide permissions for our Biz Talk admins to have the ability to run the BizTalk MessageBox viewer but it appears they need permission to drop/recreate a few tables. Is this true? What are the permissions that should be granted to a user of the BizTalk MessageBox Viewer tool?

    I am looking for an older version of MessageBox Viewer, to use with BizTalk Server 2004 SP1. The current version (11) requires .NET Framework 2.0, which is not available in our environment. Please direct me to the URL where I can download an older version that uses .NET Framework 1.1 from.

    Hi JP, Our application now has the issue with MsgBox growing at an exponential rate and eating up the drive space. This is due to the constant failure of the  sql job MessageBox_Message_ManageRefCountLog_BizTalkMsgBoxDb. We tried running MBV tool downloaded above (MsgBoxViewer12.zip) and it gives error messages asking to have .NET Framework 2.0 installed for the tool to run. Our BizTalk Server uses MS BizTalk Server 2004 with SP2 on Windows Server 2003 on .NET 1.1 Framework. Can we get the tool to run in our BizTalk Servers to resolve this issue? Thanks, Siva B
