Debug-VirtualMachineQueueOperation

Debugs VMQ/VMMQ traffic.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Debug-VirtualMachineQueueOperation
    [[-HostName] <String>]
    [[-MgmtIp] <String>]
    [[-Creds] <PSCredential>]
    [-VMName] <String>
    [-VMNetworkAdapterName] <String>
    [[-SampleCount] <UInt32>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Debug-VirtualMachineQueueOperation cmdlet analyzes virtual machine queue (VMQ) and VMMQ traffic. You can use this cmdlet to identify whether VMQ/VMMQ is degrading throughput or is contributing to high utilization on some cores.

Examples

Example 1: Debug VMMQ on a remote computer

PS C:\> $Cred = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Debug-VirtualMachineQueueOperation -HostName "NCHost.corp.com" -MgmtIp "10.123.176.108" -Creds $Cred -VMName "MuxVM" -VMNetworkAdapterName "Ethernet"

The first command gets the credentials for the current user, and then stores them in the $Cred variable.

The second command gets debug information for VMMQ on a remote computer.

Example 2: Debug VMMQ on the local host

PS C:\> $Cred = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Debug-VirtualMachineQueueOperation -VMName "MuxVM" -VMNetworkAdapterName "Ethernet" -SampleCount 90

The first command gets the credentials for the current user, and then stores them in the $Cred variable.

The second command gets debug information for VMMQ on the local host.

Parameters

-Creds

Specifies the credentials to use to connect to a remote host.
