PBServer Monitor Object
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
The PBServer Monitor performance object monitors activity on the phone book server. Phone Book Service is a comprehensive phone book management system, and is a component of Connection Point Services. Phone Book Service provides a central location for uploading and distributing access numbers for both public and private networks. A few of the counters, such as Error Hits, can be used to detect errors.
These counter objects do not show up in System Monitor until the service has been started. The service starts when a phone book is requested.
Counter Name | Description | Counter Type |
---|---|---|
Delta Upgrade Hits |
Shows the total number of updated (delta) phone book files that have been successfully downloaded to the Connection Manager client. |
|
Delta Upgrade Hits/sec |
Shows the rate, in incidents per second, at which updated (delta) phone book files were successfully downloaded to the Connection Manager client. |
|
Error Hits |
Shows the total number of requests that could not be satisfied by the Phone Book Service. This could be due to a problem with the client or due to corruption in the service database. For example, the client is looking for the wrong phone book. To investigate the cause, review the Web Service log for Windows ServerĀ 2003 family verbose logging. Connection Manager requests appear in the log as Get requests to the Pbserver.dll. Also check for the PB= value in the log; this will be name of phone book. Research this name; try to find the name in the database (Pbserver.mdb). It may be necessary to repost the phone book using administrative tools. |
