  2. Diagnostics: Single Server vs. the Cloud Single Server Cloud Dynamic Environment Multi-instance, elastic capacity Distributed transactions Local Access Infeasible Many nodes Distributed, scaled-out data Service Upgrades • Static Environment • Single well-known instance • Traceable local transactions • Local Access Feasible • All in one TS session • Data & tools co-located • In-Place Changes

  3. Windows Azure Diagnostics • SDK component providing distributed monitoring & data collection for cloud apps • Support Standard Diagnostics APIs • Cloud-Friendly • Manage multiple role instances centrally • Scalable • Built on Windows Azure Storage & used by scale-out Windows Azure platform components • Developer In Control • What to collect & when to collect it

  9. Activate Windows Azure Diagnostics Generate Data Enable Local Buffering Transfer to Windows Azure Storage How-To

  10. Sample: Activate WA Diagnostics • // This is done for you automatically by • // Windows Azure Tools for Visual Studio • // Add a reference to Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics • usingMicrosoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics; • // Activate diagnostics in the role's OnStart() method • publicoverrideboolOnStart() • { • // Use the connection string contained in the • // application configuration setting named • // "DiagnosticsConnectionString” • // If the value of this setting is • // "UseDevelopmentStorage=true" then will use dev stg • DiagnosticMonitor.Start("DiagnosticsConnectionString"); • ... • }

  11. Sample: Web.Config Changes • <!– • This is automatically inserted by VS.The listener routes • System.Diagnostics.Trace messages to • Windows Azure Diagnostics. • --> • <system.diagnostics> • <trace> • <listeners> • <addtype="Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics.DiagnosticMonitorTraceListener, Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" name="AzureDiagnostics"> • <filtertype="" /> • </add> • </listeners> • </trace> • </system.diagnostics>

  12. Sample: Generate Diagnostics Data • stringmyRoleInstanceName = • RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.Id; • // Trace with standard .Net tracing APIs • System.Diagnostics.Trace.TraceInformation( • "Informational trace from " + myRoleInstanceName); • // Capture full crash dumps • CrashDumps.EnableCollection(true); • // Capture mini crash dumps • CrashDumps.EnableCollection(false);

  13. Sample: Enable Local Data Buffering • // Managed traces, IIS logs, failed request logs, • // crashdumps and WA diags internal logs are buffered • // in local storage by default. Other data sources must be • // added explicitly • DiagnosticMonitorConfigurationdiagConfig = • DiagnosticMonitor.GetDefaultInitialConfiguration(); • // Add performance counter monitoring • PerformanceCounterConfigurationprocTimeConfig = new • PerformanceCounterConfiguration(); • // Run typeperf.exe /q to query for counter names • procTimeConfig.CounterSpecifier = • @"\Processor(*)\% Processor Time"; • procTimeConfig.SampleRate = System.TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1.0); • diagConfig.PerformanceCounters.DataSources.Add(procTimeConfig); • // Continued on next slide...

  14. Sample: Enable Local Data Buffering • // Continued from previous slide... • // Add event collection from the Windows Event Log • // Syntax: <Channel>!<xpath query> • // http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd996910(VS.85).aspx • diagConfig.WindowsEventLog.DataSources.Add("System!*"); • // Restart diagnostics with this custom local buffering • // configuration • DiagnosticMonitor.Start( • "DiagnosticsConnectionString", • diagConfig);

  15. Sample: Web.Config Changes • <!-- • You can optionally enable IIS failed request tracing. • This has some performance overhead • A service upgrade is required to toggle this setting. • --> • <system.webServer> • <tracing> • <traceFailedRequests> • <addpath="*"> • <traceAreas> • <addprovider="ASP"verbosity="Verbose" /> • <addprovider="ASPNET" • areas="Infrastructure,Module,Page,AppService" • verbosity="Verbose" /> • <addprovider="ISAPI Extension"verbosity="Verbose"/> • <addprovider="WWW Server"verbosity="Verbose"/> • </traceAreas> • <failureDefinitionsstatusCodes="200-599"/> • </add> • </traceFailedRequests> • </tracing> • </system.webServer>

  16. Sample: Scheduled Data Transfer • // Start off with the default initial configuration • DiagnosticMonitorConfiguration dc = • DiagnosticMonitor.GetDefaultInitialConfiguration(); • dc.WindowsEventLog.DataSources.Add("Application!*"); • dc.WindowsEventLog.ScheduledTransferPeriod = • System.TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5.0); • DiagnosticMonitor.Start("DiagnosticsConnectionString", dc);

  17. Sample: On-Demand Data Transfer • // On-Demand transfer of buffered files. • // This code can live in the role, or on the desktop, • // or even in another service. • varddm = newDeploymentDiagnosticManager( • storageAccount, • deploymentID); • varridm = ddm.GetRoleInstanceDiagnosticManager( • roleName, • roleInstanceName); • vardataBuffersToTransfer = DataBufferName.Logs; • OnDemandTransferOptionstransferOptions = • newOnDemandTransferOptions(); • transferOptions.From = DateTime.MinValue; • transferOptions.To = DateTime.UtcNow; • transferOptions.LogLevelFilter = LogLevel.Critical; • GuidrequestID = ridm.BeginOnDemandTransfer( • dataBuffersToTransfer, • transferOptions);

  18. Storage Considerations • Standard WA Storage costs apply for transactions, storage & bandwidth • Data Retention • Local buffers are aged out by the Diagnostic Monitor according to configurable quotas • You control data retention for data in table/blob storage • Query Performance on Tabular Data • Partitioned by high-order bits of the tick count • Query by time is efficient • Filter by verbosity level at transfer time

  19. Feature Summary • Local data buffering • Configurable trace, perf counter, Windows event log, IIS log & file buffering • Local buffer quota management • Query & modify config from the cloud or from the desktop per role instance • Transfer to WA Storage • Scheduled & on-demand • Filter by data type, verbosity & time range • Transfer completion notification • Query & modify from the cloud and from the desktop per role instance • Under the hood • Role runs in Performance Log Users group • Coming Soon: IIS Logs generated in role’s local data directory

  20. Common Diagnostic Tasks • Performance measurement • Resource usage • Troubleshooting and debugging • Problem detection • Quality of Service Metrics • Capacity planning • Traffic analysis (users, views, peak times) • Billing • Auditing
