Web Service Object

The NWLink IPX performance object consists of counters that measure datagram transmission to and from computers using the IPX protocol.

Note Image

Note

This object only reports valid data for counters that monitor datagrams and packets; for frame-related counters, the object tends to report zero values. In addition, connection-related data is not likely to be useful because IPX is a connectionless protocol.

Counter Name

Description

Counter Type

Bytes Total/sec

Shows the total rate at which bytes are sent to or received from the network by the protocol, but only counts the bytes in frames which carry data. This is the sum of the values of Frame Bytes/sec and Datagram Bytes/sec.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Connection Session Timeouts

Shows the number of connections that were dropped due to a session time out. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connections Canceled

Shows the number of connections that were canceled. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connections No Retries

Shows the total number of connections that were successfully made on the first try. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connections Open

Shows the number of connections currently open for this protocol. This counter shows the current count only and does not accumulate over time.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Connections With Retries

Shows the total count of connections that were made after retrying the attempt. A retry occurs when the first connection attempt failed. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Datagram Bytes Received/sec

Shows the rate at which datagram bytes are received by the computer.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Datagram Bytes Sent/sec

Shows the rate at which datagram bytes are sent from the computer.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Datagram Bytes/sec

Shows the rate at which datagram bytes are processed by the computer. This counter is the sum of the values of Datagram Bytes Received/sec and Datagram Bytes Sent/sec.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Datagrams Received/sec

Shows the rate at which datagrams are received by the computer.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Datagrams Sent/sec

Shows the rate at which datagrams are sent from the computer.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Datagrams/sec

Shows the rate at which datagrams are processed by the computer. This counter shows the sum of the values of Datagrams Received/sec and Datagrams Sent/sec.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Disconnects Local

Shows the number of session disconnections that were initiated by the local computer. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Disconnects Remote

Shows the number of session disconnections that were initiated by the remote computer. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Expirations Ack

Shows the count of T2 timer expirations.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Expirations Response

Shows the count of T1 timer expirations.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Failures Adapter

Shows the number of connections that were dropped due to an adapter failure. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Failures Link

Shows the number of connections that were dropped due to a link failure. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Failures No Listen

Shows the number of connections that were rejected because the remote computer was not listening for connection requests.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Failures Not Found

Shows the number of connection attempts that failed because the remote computer could not be found. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Failures Resource Local

Shows the number of connections that failed because of resource problems or shortages on the local computer. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Failures Resource Remote

Shows the number of connections that failed because of resource problems or shortages on the remote computer. This number is cumulative and shows a running total.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Frame Bytes Received/sec

Shows the rate at which data bytes are received by the computer. This counter only shows the frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Frame Bytes Rejected/sec

Shows the rate at which data bytes are rejected. This counter only shows the bytes in frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Frame Bytes Re-Sent/sec

Shows the rate at which data bytes are re-sent by the computer. This counter only shows the bytes in frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Frame Bytes Sent/sec

shows the rate at which data bytes are sent by the computer. This counter only shows the bytes in frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Frame Bytes/sec

Shows the rate at which data bytes are processed by the computer. This counter is the sum of Frame Bytes Sent/sec and Frame Bytes Received/sec. This counter only shows the bytes in frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_BULK_COUNT

Frames Received/sec

Shows the rate at which data frames are received by the computer. This counter only shows the frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Frames Rejected/sec

Shows the rate at which data frames are rejected. This counter only shows the frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Frames Re-Sent/sec

Shows the rate at which data frames are re-sent by the computer. This counter only shows the frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Frames Sent/sec

Shows the rate at which data frames are sent by the computer. This counter only shows the frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Frames/sec

Shows the rate at which data frames are processed by the computer. This counter is the sum of the values of Frames Received/sec and Frames Sent/sec. This counter only shows the frames that carry data.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packets Received/sec

Shows the rate at which packets are received by the computer. This counter shows all packets processed (control as well as data packets).

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packets Sent/sec

shows the rate at which packets are sent by the computer. This counter shows all packets sent by the computer (control as well as data packets).

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Packets/sec

Shows the rate at which packets are processed by the computer. This count is the sum of the values of Packets Sent/sec and Packets Received/sec. This counter includes all packets processed (control as well as data packets).

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Piggyback Ack Queued/sec

Shows the rate at which piggyback acknowledgments are queued.

PERF_COUNTER_COUNTER

Piggyback Ack Timeouts

Shows the number of times that a piggyback acknowledgment could not be sent because there was no outgoing packet to the remote computer on which to piggyback. If no outgoing packet is sent within the time-out period, then an acknowledgment packet is sent and this counter is incremented.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Window Send Average

Shows the average number of data bytes that were sent before waiting for an acknowledgment from the remote computer.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Window Send Maximum

Shows the maximum number of data bytes that are sent before waiting for an acknowledgment from the remote computer.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT
