WCF "Service" Performance Counters Naming

70 views Asked by At

I'm only interested in Service Performance Counters at the moment and for the life of me, I cannot figure out what is the naming pattern for these.

According to WCF Performance Counters, the pattern is

ServiceName@ServiceBaseAddress

yet I see all kinds of, pardon my French, crap:

  • AsiaService@http:||asiaservice.aeroclub.int:8004|
  • PricingSchemeService@|Services|v2|PricingSchemeService.svc
  • [email protected]|CompanyProfilesService.svc
  • PersonalProfilesService@341|PersonalProfilesService.svc
  • PersonalProfilesService@882|PersonalProfilesService.svc

Now, the first one is more-or-less clear: stuff after @ is indeed a base address (uglied-up, though -- I think perf counter names are not allowed to have slashes in them) of a self-hosted WCF service.

Second one is IIS-hosted and the "base address" is indeed relative URL to the service.

Third baffles me to no end. 09.1 does not look like anything: it is not a part of a relative URL, it is not a PID, nor it is a port number.

Two last ones are completely bonkers. There are indeed two instances of PersonalProfilesService.svc hosted under different URLs, yet perf counter names make no mention of said URLs and contain unidentifiable digits after @. These are again not PIDs, not port numbers, not URLs.

Help me maintain my sanity and pretty please, point to a document where all of this is described.

Oh nevermind. Answered here. In my particular situation, the third service is hosted under a longish URL ending with ../v0.1/CompanyProfilesService.svc, hence the .1 part; the two extra digits are hash value of the original string. Ditto for the last two services.
