SharePointDiagnosticsTool-1

The tool is fairly simple to setup and out of the box requires very little configuration, though if you’re interested in configuring it to meet a specific case where specific traffic is being filtered or merged, the configuration guide is available at:

The more interesting information from my perspective that provides for quick and simple analysis of a farm are the solutions and timer job definitions information that can quickly be glanced at.

SharePointDiagnosticsTool-2

Lastly though, this tool also brings together trends that show up in the monitoring metrics with a little bit of graphing capability using the aforementioned .net 3.5 Microsoft Charts plugin.  Granted, what you see below isn’t all that interesting, but that’s also because there’s not much configured or utilized in this dev farm…yet.

SharePointDiagnosticsTool-3

Props to the SharePoint Product Team for developing this tool as a part of the upgraded toolkit suite!  Stay tuned in for future updates and to see some pretty data streaming through the Trends section.
