Monitoring Notification Services Performance and Activity

When notification applications are running, it is important to monitor their status and performance. You must make sure that events are arriving and that notifications are being generated and distributed. Monitoring performance enables you to observe application status and to determine whether the current system configuration is adequate for the volume of events and notifications being processed.

Microsoft SQL Server Notification Services provides performance objects that report on the status of components, applications, and instances, and performance reports that help you analyze the current and historical performance of your instances and applications. You also can use SQL Server utilities to monitor the databases used by Notification Services.
