Monitor Caches

NCache provides you with GUI-based tools as well as PowerShell cmdlets to monitor your Pub/Sub Messaging caches. This section will give you an overview of how to use these tools to monitor your data in a Pub/Sub Messaging cache. First, run the test stress tool and then monitor Pub/Sub 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.

Using 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.
