How much RAM a process needs

Post by Guenter Matthaeus »

Hi folks,
our company bought a java based application (USU Valuemation) for Asset management. For calculating hov much servers we have to install for production, I have to measure how much RAM the process javaw.exe takes in use. There is one process jawav.exe for each user connecting to the server. The count of the number of instances (poor english) and the reporting is not a problem.
This test will go over 1 week on 2 dedicated servers.
I need something like in natural language" Today there have been 6 Users connected, and the amount of RAM was between 128 and 350 MB for each connection.
I hope all understand what I mean. :roll:

"Today there have been 6 Users connected" can be easily monitored by "Process" test.
Amount of RAM can be checked by Performance Counter test. But I am afraid you will need to create several test items, one item for each "possible" instance of the process:
1) \\TOSHIBA2\Process(process_name)\Working Set
2) \\TOSHIBA2\Process(process_name#1)\Working Set
3) \\TOSHIBA2\Process(process_name#2)\Working Set
4) \\TOSHIBA2\Process(process_name#3)\Working Set
5) \\TOSHIBA2\Process(process_name#4)\Working Set
....
These items will display amount of memory when 5 instances started. If just 3 instances started, items 1,2,3 will display amount of memory but items 4,5, will have Unknown status.

Regards
Alex
