Monitoring of the performance of the network share

Was asked to monitor the performance of a drive mapped from a network share in Windows. We would like to have an idea of how long it takes to open/close/save a file on this share to different locations. As I know the Infrastructure Officer cannot monitor readers mounted remotely. I thought I could use Foglight Transaction Recorder and CitraTest to do. If someone else tried to do this? Or someone has used other methods or can think of ways to do this?

Thank you

Kris

Hi antoniusfirst,

No you don't misunderstand the question. We have a license for Citratest, so it wouldn't be a problem, but I agree that it is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I like your idea of using perl or python to do that, because it would probably be more flexible and adaptable. In fact I have been informed that the question seems to particularly affect Excel files, but some quick research on Google reveals that I have options here with perl or python too.

Thanks for the comments, it was very helpful.

See you soon

Kris

  • Unable to connect to the network share after the Microsoft Account

    I am running Windows 8 Pro and if I setup with a local account, I can access my server to NetApp files very well. As soon as I switch to a Microsoft Account, I can't connect to file shares. I get "the specified server cannot perform the requested operation."

    How can I use my Microsoft Account and still access the network share?

    Also, I have a laptop running Windows 8, connected to the same network that can access the share file very well. I already tried a "system refresh" and complete a reinstall.

    Any suggestion?

    If you map a drive to the share and select Connect using different credentials and enter your local account information it works?

  • Windows XP sp3 can not access the network shares on vista after installing sp2

    I have a xp sp3 computer and another currently running vista Home premium sp2. Previously, I was able to access the network share on the xp computer before vista computer I installed sp1. Both computers were able to ping between them without problem.

    I've upgraded to sp2 because I had problems with windows media center, missing records. Upgrade of these issues fixed, but this means that roll back to sp1 is not an option for me to get operational network.

    Please do not post a standard answer on the network configuration. I am familiar with the standards requirements to share files between xp and vista and everything is set up correctly.  Like I said everything was working fine before the installation of sp2.

    If it is a known problem that is still not resolved, I'd appreciate knowing that information as well.

  • Windows 7 loses access to the network share when unplug wired connection

    With my laptop Windows 7 Pro (64-bit SP1;) docked and thus have wired network (within a domain), I can access shares network very well. A wireless connection is active at the same time. When I detach, Windows Explorer and Office applications get upset some of the time. In addition, this is the case when I anchor. He didn't there has no problem opening a file on the network share when I'm rooted or not anchored, but the transition is not well. Windows launches the error code 0 x 80070035, Windows cannot access , the network path was not found. When it is connected to our wireless network, the machine name is altered by an additional letter. The latter has led to a problem that had to be cleared up by a patch installed by my system administrator, but the problem persisted.

    I understand that Windows 7 should be smart enough to pass interfaces for network access, having a preference for a wiring if it is available (perhaps even the connection data rate). Maybe it's too much to expect that the operating system could make this transition, but it seemed that my Vista laptop has done very well. Any suggestions are welcome.

    Thank you.

  • Disk utility can not create large image of drive (60 GB) on the network share

    Disc Utiity (Versie 15.0 (1511.3)):

    I am creating a disc from a hard disk image. I want to save the image on a Synology DS414 network share.

    The share is accessible a there is no active disk quota.

    I copied a large file via Finder (384 MB) to the \\partagereseau that works.

    When I try to record a copy of disk sharing (60 GB), I get the following message:

    Unsatisfactory area is available on "(null)" to create the NAME of diskimage. Choose another volume with at least 60 GB of available space and continue.

    Summary: I can create large files on the share, but the disc utilities cannot?

    Greetings Wim

    384 MB is nowadays is no longer considered to be a file of "big."

    You don't mention how much space is actually available on the Synology but for arguments sake, we will assume that more than 60 GB of space is available.

    So in theory it should be possible to create a disk image of 60 GB (no doubt), there is enough space available. As you say there is no set of storage quotas and I'm happy to believe that. I think that the issue could be more to do with the maximum allowed size of the file, remember that I mentioned that 384 is actually not much, although some systems have a limit of 4 GB for a single file, for example FAT32 file systems have such a limit. In theory the FAT32 limit should not apply here because almost all including Synology NAS servers actually use Linux as the underlying software and so use Ext3 or Ext4 as file system, not FAT32. Same Ext2 a fortiori Ext3 or Ext4 allowing individuals will produce up to 2 TB of size which is clearly much larger than 60 GB.

    Still it could be related to that question even if it is necessary as an unnecessary and artificial limit may be for example to ensure compatible with other systems using FAT32.

    If you have enough space on the Mac, you could create and try to copy on the Synology, however another approach which is probably better all around is to create a "sparsebundle disk image. It's a disc image, but another type and will work around this problem because it is in fact made up of lots of all small files attached together. As that user do you see this as image a big drive, but the computer sees it as a folder full of files much smaller.

  • Machine on the network share, snapshot at the opening?

    Hello

    I'm new on this, so apologies if I receive the wrong terminology.

    I need to put some infrastructure in place to a Profiler configuration for applications in Citrix flow (although this info is probably not important to do this).

    What I need is the following.

    User turns on the workstation, and then tries to start a machine 2008R2 on a network share. A snapshot is then created, and the user is working on this snapshot. When you are finished, the user stops the machine and the snapshot is destroyed, leaving a pristine environment for the next user.

    Is this possible? Is it possible to do it with a minimal amount of information provided by the user (scripts can help?).

    Thanks in advance.

    install the virtual machine until you get the required state.
    then setall VMDK tononpersistent

    This creates a snapshot too which is automatically deleted when the virtual machine stops - not necessary at all to script

  • Problem backup files of MS Office 2007 to the network share on non-persistent pool

    I use ThinApp to load MS Office 2007 in a non-persistent pool. Whenever I try to save an Office file to a network share start installation of the application. It takes a lot of time. Any ideas on that?

    Thank you

    Sheph003

    Are you sure that the last-born is a factor here?  It seems more that you have not properly packaged.  Have you tried the same operation of the master image?  To avoid problems, the best way to package the ThinApp is using the same basic build vm that you use for your link clones but without all the apps still installed i.e. windows Basic.

    For example I have 2 images - 1 is Windows XP only, the 2nd is a progression of this image with installed software that becomes the parent.  Thinapps are packed on a copy of the image 1 running on VM Workstation.  I know that my image of parent and ThinApp image have the same windows build due to the process, I followed.

    I don't see what last-born can have no effect on your problem?

  • Intermittent permission problems on the Documents directed to the network share folder.

    Everyone knows this intermittent problem before?   We have Vista workstations where each employee is allocated storage (disks Home) on a network drive (on a NetApp storage device).  Each employee Documents folder is redirected to a folder dedicated to this place.

    The vast majority of employees is having no problems with this configuration, but we recently did not have a low percentage of employees who are starting to have problems with strange permission on this network through their Documents folder drive.

    First of all, NTFS permissions have been confirmed as correct on the respective folder of each (each has been granted full control).   In each case, random, users encounter intermittent "access denied" errors when you try to save files (Word documents, Excel, files jpg even spreadsheets) on their own drive of home.  Typically, the problem occurs independently to know if they are trying to save the docs within an application (Word, Excel, etc.) and manually via a Windows Explorer window.

    For example, a user could save an Excel file in a subfolder in the folder root documents, but a few moments later could not save a jpg file in the same folder.  It has been verified that it has full control over both the folder root of Documents as the subfolder containing the documents.

    Another user can save files Word and Excel in its Documents, but then failed to open their shortly after (access denied).   It has been verified that he has full control of both the root folder of Documents than the subfolder containing the documents.

    NTFS permissions are well positioned, but yet, we have still some weird permission issues.   Y at - he recommended registry entries to check as we redirect Documents to a network drive?

  • File adapter to query the network share?

    Is this possible?
    I tried something like '\\fileserver\shared' by specifying in the physical path of the file adapter for files of polling, but it doesn't seem to work.
    (Yes, it's in the Windows environment)

    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    It works but you must make sure that the user who starts SOA Suite has the correct privileges, it becomes a little complicated in windows you have the notion of areas and it's security configuration. SOA is usually started by a local user. I usually make the share accessible to all who. The test manually.

    The other thing, it is because of java case-sensitive. It is usually the root of the problem.

  • How to know the username of an account on a network share

    When I access a network share from another computer with windows Explorer, it tries to connect with identification information (current account & password or the credentials previously stored or depends on the settings of the remote computer as a guest), if not, it prompts for username & password (depending on certain parameters again). My problem is when I access a network share, I want to know my credentials (username) on the network computer.

    Is there any command or no way to definitely know what username I connect to a network share with windows Explorer?

    Original title: account in the network share

    Hi Aoikonomou,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    If I understand you correctly, you want to know the credentials of your system when you connect to a network share. I wish to inform you that all the names of login and passwords are supported by Credential Manager. By saving your credentials, Windows can automatically log in to websites or other computers. Credentials are stored in special files called vaults on your computer. Windows and programs (such as web browsers) can safely give the credentials in the vaults to other computers and websites.

    To know your Windows credentials, you can read the following steps to open the Manager of credentials:

    1. Press the Windows key + X.
    2. Click on Control Panel.
    3. Type "Credential"" " in the search bar and select credentials manager. "
    4. Click Windows credentials.
    5. You will be able to see the user names and password (hidden).

    In order to store passwords for automatic connection, see the following article:

    Store passwords, certificates, and other credentials for automatic logon
