SampleType Enumeration

In This Topic

The method of data collection done by the metric

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Enum SampleType 
   Inherits System.Enum

public enum SampleType : System.Enum

Members

Member	Value	Description
Event	1	Metric values are isolated events with additional information.
Sampled	0	Metric values are contiguous samples of the measured value

Remarks

Metrics are either sampled or event oriented. Sampled metrics are well defined for all time between the start and end of the metric, meaning they have a value. This value's accuracy compared to reality is dependent on the frequency of sampling (the Sample Interval). For example, all Windows performance counter metrics are sampled metrics. Event metrics are undefined between occurrences. For example, an IIS server log represents a set of event metric values - each one is an event that has additional information worth tracking, but the value is undefined between events.
