Where can I find MetricsAPI docs?

I can't seem to locate the Metrics API documentation, can someone please link me (am I just blind?)

"Added: Metrics API: Provide Metrics about internal resources used by OpenAccess. - OpenAccess used in application or web server scenarios has to provide information about the performance and scalability of the system. The amounts of database connection, parallel context instances, and transaction have to be available. When used, an example web page will show the usage and how to interpret the numbers."

Hello Steve,

 Thanks for pointing this to us. This topic is not prepared in or documentation yet but it will be there by Service Pack 1 of the current release.

All the best,

Hi Steve,
new History(context).GetDatabaseMetrics(null,null,-100)
gives you the last 100 entries.
After you have enabled it in the backend configuration:

bc.Runtime.MetricCapacity = 3600;
bc.Runtime.MetricInterval = 1000; // 1 per second

Kind regards,

Thank Jan!  Looks slick

Question on enabling though...Which tracing option is the one to turn it on (in a web context)...

Is it toggleable at all in webconfig setting perhaps?  So I can have a page to check stats, but only turn it on live when I see something wrong.

Hi Steve,
If you use the scope it is, if you use the context you might want to read such settings from the web.config by yourself and generate the backend configuration object accordingly.
