Capacity Management # Counter Potential Bottleneck
Condition
Action
1 % Processor Time Persistently greater than 75%
· Upgrade processor, Add additional processors, Add additional servers
2 Disk-Average Disk Queue Length Gradually increasing · Upgrade to faster disks, Increase number of disks, Implement data striping, Move some data to alternative servers
3 Disk-% Idle Time Persistently less than 90% · Increase number of disks, Move some data to alternative disks or servers
4 Disk-% Free Space Persistently less than 30% · Increase number of disks, Move some data to alternative disks or servers
5 Memory- Available Mbytes Less than 2 GB on WFE server · Add memory, Remove unnecessary services,
6 Memory- Cache Faults/Sec Persistently greater than 1 • Add Memory, Increase Cache size Move some data to alternative disks or servers
7 Memory- Pages/Sec Persistently greater than 10
• Add Memory
8 Paging File % Used Greater than 50% • Add Memory
9 Paging File %Used Peak Greater than 75% • Add Memory
10 Network Interface Card- Total Bytes/Sec Persistently greater than 40% of capacity
• Upgrade NICs,· Investigate further (outgoing traffic, incoming traffic, and memory buffers)
11 Process(w3wp and owstimer.exe) -Working Set greater than 80% of total memory
• Add Memory
12 Process(w3wp and owstimer.exe) -%Processor
Time
Persistently Greater than 75%
• Upgrade processor, Add additional processors, Add additional servers
13 Application Pool Recycles Several per day · Verify application pool settings, Ensure application pools are not set to
automatically recycle unnecessarily
14 ASP.net- Requests Queued Persistently Large numbers (100s)
Add WFEs servers
15 Request Wait Time Persistent delays Add WFE servers
16 Request Rejected Greater than 0 Add WFE servers
14
Performance Optimization
1 ms Latency between SQL and SP
20 ms latency to retrieve the first byte
stretched Farms !!
15
Performance Optimization (2)
Minimal and optimal CPU requirements for SharePoint and SQL servers
Minimal and optimal memory requirements for SharePoint and SQL servers (minimal 12GB SharePoint Server; 16GB SQL server, but depends on the deployment size
16
Performance Optimization (3)
Create a SQL alias cliconfg.exe
Disable loopback check
Latest OS updates
SP Service Packs
Use Hardware Load Balancers
17
Performance Optimization (4) Log Files on different than primary (system) disk
Use naming convention for service accounts, services and database names
Disable unused Windows services (eg.: Spooler, AudisoSrv, tabletInput, WerSvc)
WarmUp Scripts
18
Performance Optimization (5)
Set Quotas on Web Applications
Compression
Caching
Avoid Long Backup Jobs
Code Check
