Active Directory Performance Monitoring
Easily monitor the performance of your Active Directory environment and other critical applications
-
Diagnose domain controller performance issues
Monitor the domain controller to track failed login attempts, account lockouts, and changes in audit policies.
-
Help prevent replication services from failing
Prevent failure of replication and other directory services, such as inter-site messaging and DNS services.
-
Monitor LDAP sessions
Monitor LDAP client sessions and processes to troubleshoot and resolve issues faster to save time.
-
Monitor multiple platforms from a single interface
Along with Active Directory, monitor and get performance issue alerts for physical and virtual environments.

Diagnose domain controller performance issues
Monitoring domain controllers will let you know whether the CPU usage has reached its threshold, a user account is locked, or if a login issue is present. Active Directory performance monitoring from SolarWinds® Server & Application Monitor (SAM) gives insight into Active Directory issues related to:
- User account: Account creation, password change and reset attempts, disabled and deleted user accounts
- Security policy: Domain and system policy changes, data recovery
- System: Firewall settings and other system changes, currently running services
Monitor LDAP sessions
Monitor LDAP sessions
Monitoring the NTDS object counter will indicate the number of clients connected to an LDAP session. Server & Application Monitor’s Active Directory monitoring software provides insight into monitoring LDAP sessions. The number of clients connected can significantly impact the server load. Therefore, monitoring the NTDS object counters helps ensure there is never a server overload connected to a specific LDAP session. In addition, SolarWinds SAM provides insight into LDAP statistics, such as LDAP active threads, bind time, client sessions, successful binds/sec, and searches/sec.

Help prevent replication services from failing
Directory services such as replication are critical to maintaining high availability of Active Directory servers. Server & Application Monitor notifies you when your directory servers fail to replicate, which prevents end-users from accessing various folders and files. Server & Application Monitor also provides detailed performance statistics related to directory services such as distributed file system, DFS replication, intersite messaging, DNS client, Windows time, RPC, server and workstation services, Active Directory domain services, web services, and more.

Automatic application discovery and dependency mapping.
-
Unified server and application monitoring across private, public, and hybrid cloud environments.
-
Built-in templates provide best practices
Domain controller stops working when NTDS files run out of disk space, resulting in user authentication and access failure.
User files and folders can get locked if they are not replicated with the file server using the service.
User accounts get locked if the PDC emulator is unavailable in the domain, or if replication fails between domain controllers.
