Monitor Caches

NCache provides you with GUI-based tools as well as PowerShell cmdlets to monitor your Distributed Lucene with Persistence caches. This section will give you an overview of how to use these tools to monitor your data in a Distributed Lucene with Persistence cache. First, run the test stress tool and then monitor Distributed Lucene Counters through the following ways.

Using NCache Statistics

• Launch NCache Management Center by browsing http://localhost:8251 or <server-ip>:8251 on Windows and Linux.

• From the left navigation bar, click on Clustered Caches.

• Select the cache by checking the checkbox against the cache name.

  • Method 1: Click on the ... button against the cache name. Click on Show Statistics from the options.

    

  • Method 2: Click on from the toolbar.

• A statistic window will pop open showing the cache statistics.

Using PerfMon Tool

Follow the steps given below to monitor the NCache counters through the PerfMon tool:

• Press WINDOWS + R keys on the keyboard or type PerfMon in Windows search bar.

• PerfMon tool opens up. Click on the Performance Monitor under Monitoring Tools.

• Click on + button. This opens the Add Counters popup window. By default, it shows Performance Counter categories on the local system. If a cache is running on a different computer, type the computer name or IP.

• Scroll up in the Performance Categories window to find 'NCache'. Select NCache Distributed Lucene.

• Click on the down arrowhead icon to expand the NCache category. All of its counters are listed under it. Select the required Pub/Sub counters from this list.
