Directory Replication Inbound view

To display this view, enable the Directory Replication Inbound Group in the Replication section of the Metrics Management dashboard. When this collection group is enabled, this view is added to the Replication navigation tab in the Active Directory Explorer dashboard.

 
Table 29. Directory Replication Inbound view
Description

This view displays additional inbound replication metrics for the selected DC which are gathered when the Directory Replication Inbound collection group is enabled.

Data displayed

DRA Inbound Bytes Compressed. This graph charts the following metrics:

•
DRA Inbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, After Compression). Shows the compressed size (in bytes) of inbound compressed replication data (size after compression from DSAs in other sites).
•
DRA Inbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, Before Compression). Shows the original size (in bytes) of inbound compressed replication data.
 

DRA Inbound Bytes Compressed/sec. This graph charts the following metrics:

•
DRA Inbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, After Compression)/sec. Shows the compressed size (in bytes) of inbound compressed replication data per second.
•
DRA Inbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, Before Compression)/sec. Shows the original size (in bytes) of inbound compressed replication data per second.
 

DRA Inbound Bytes Not Compressed (Within Site)/sec. This graph charts the number of bytes replicated in that were not compressed at the source (from DSAs in the same site) per second. It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Inbound Bytes Not Compressed (Within Site). This graph charts the number of bytes replicated in that were not compressed at the source (from DSAs in the same site). It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Inbound Full Sync Objects Remaining. This graph charts the number of objects remaining until the full sync completes. It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Inbound Link Value Updates Remaining in Packet. This graph charts the number of link value updates received in the current directory replication update packet that have not yet been applied to the local server. It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Inbound Properties Applied/sec. This counter shows the number of properties that are updated due to the incoming property winning the reconciliation logic that determines the final value to be replicated.

 

DRA Inbound Properties Filtered/sec. This counter shows the number of property changes that are received during the replication that have not yet been seen.

 

DRA Inbound Properties Total/sec. This counter shows the total number of object properties received from inbound replication partners.

 

DRA Inbound Values (DNs only)/sec. This counter shows the number of object property values received from inbound replication partners that are Distinguished Names (DNs) that reference other objects.

Directory Replication Outbound view

To display this view, enable the Directory Replication Outbound Group in the Replication section of the Metrics Management dashboard. When this collection group is enabled, this view is added to the Replication navigation tab in the Active Directory Explorer dashboard.

 
Table 30. Directory Replication Inbound view
Description

This view displays additional outbound replication metrics for the selected DC which are gathered when the Directory Replication Outbound collection group is enabled.

Data displayed

DRA Outbound Bytes Compressed. This graph charts the following metrics:

•
DRA Outbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, After Compression). Shows the compressed size (in bytes) of outbound compressed replication data (size after compression from DSAs in other sites).
•
DRA Outbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, Before Compression). Shows the original size (in bytes) of outbound compressed replication data (size before compression from DSAs in others sites).
 

DRA Outbound Bytes Compressed/sec. This graph charts the following metrics:

•
DRA Outbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, After Compression)/sec. Shows the compressed size (in bytes) of outbound compressed replication data per second.
•
DRA Outbound Bytes Compressed (Between Sites, Before Compression)/sec. Shows the original size (in bytes) of outbound compressed replication data per second.
 

DRA Outbound Bytes Not Compressed (Within Site)/sec. This graph charts the number of bytes replicated out that were not compressed (that is, from DSAs in the same site) per second. It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Outbound Bytes Not Compressed (Within Site). This graph charts the number of bytes replicated out that were not compressed (that is, from DSAs in the same site). It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Outbound Bytes Total Since Boot. This graph charts the total number of bytes replicated out. It includes the number of uncompressed bytes (never compressed) and compressed bytes (after compression). It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

 

DRA Outbound Properties and Values. This graph charts the following metrics:

•
DRA Outbound Properties/sec. Shows the number of properties replicated out per second.
•
DRA Outbound Values (DNs only)/sec. Shows the number of object property values containing Distinguished Names (DNs) sent to outbound replication partners per second.

Directory Replication Sync view

To display this view, enable the Directory Replication Sync Group in the Replication section of the Metrics Management dashboard. When this collection group is enabled, this view is added to the Replication navigation tab in the Active Directory Explorer dashboard.

 
Table 31. Directory Replication Sync view
Description

This view displays additional replication synchronization metrics for the selected DC which are gathered when the Directory Replication Sync collection group is enabled.

Data displayed

DRA Pending Replication Operations. This counter shows the total number of replication operations on the directory that are queued for the selected server but not yet performed.

 

DRA Sync Failures on Schema Mismatch. This counter shows the number of sync requests made to the neighbors that failed because their schema are out of sync.

 

DRA Sync Requests Successful. This counter shows the number of sync requests made to the neighbors that successfully returned.

 

DRA Threads Getting NC Changes. This graph charts the following metrics:

•
DRA Threads Getting NC Changes. Shows the number of threads on the selected server that are currently attempting to acquire changes from another server.
•
DRA Threads Getting NC Changes Holding Semaphore. Shows the number of threads on the selected server that are currently attempting to acquire changes from another server and hold a semaphore required to get these changes.
 

DRA Sync Requests Made. This graph charts the number of directory synchronization requests made to the neighbors. It provides a comparison against the computed average for the specified time interval.

Directory Replication USN view

To display this view, enable the Directory Replication USN Group in the Replication section of the Metrics Management dashboard. When this collection group is enabled, this view is added to the Replication navigation tab for the selected DC in the Active Directory Explorer dashboard.

 
Table 32. Directory Replication USN view
Description

This view displays additional metrics about the DRA highest USNs for the selected DC which are gathered when the Directory Replication USN collection group is enabled.

•
DRA Highest USN Committed (High part). Shows the high-order 32 bits of the highest USN committed on the DSA.
•
DRA Highest USN Committed (Low part). Shows the low-order 32 bits of the highest USN committed on the DSA.
