I am looking for the same thing. We are
having more and more applications bagging against the directory. I hate nothing
more then a 2am call “I think AD is Slow”. I know there are a few Tool$
that do LDAP query response time tracking very well. I’m look for FREE. Did
I miss the suggestions? I’m looking for a command or script that
I can point at DC’s and it give me LDAP query time (with a given query)
and even maybe a average? If anyone has seen this please let me know. Thanks! From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks everyone for the suggestions
– even the shameless plugs from Gil… J You know… at first all we had to
worry about was Exchange. It has some fail safes (that don’t always
work) for unresponsive or slow responding domain controllers. Here
lately, we’re connecting anything with a pulse requiring authentication
to Active Directory. Unfortunately, a lot of the applications don’t
have any legitimate failsafe (timeouts, etc). So basically, I’m
just looking for a way to measure a simple ldap query to determine how
responsive a server is or has been – to assist in troubleshooting and CYA
of course. Again thanks all… From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eric Fleischman So a few ideas have been floated out on
this thread. I can float a few myself if you can answer a question first: what
is your goal? Common goals I’ve heard of:
Or do you have another goal? ~Eric From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On
Behalf Of joe One way to do this is set up
"stations" that on some frequency will send ldap queries to your DCs.
You will then simply record the time it took to process the query. Obviously do
something that is consistent (rootdse or specific attribs from the default
context) so your times don't deviate based on amount of information
returned. This gives you data you can track long term for how fast or slow a
given DC is. If you exceed some average you define as bad, you alert on it.
This could warn you of network issues (say a virus is eating up more and more bandwidth)
or your DC is getting overloaded or hurting. joe From:

found a clever way to monitor and alert on this stuff? J Counters maybe? |
