Monitoring vnet data gateway service and statistics

Hi All.

 

I was wondering if it is possible to monitor the vnet data gateway service for downtime and performance statistics. We are experiencing performance issues when refreshing reports and the vnet data gateway is one area that requires further investigation.

 

I just was not sure if it is possible to interrogate the vnet data gateway from powershell or have access to some form of dashboard with performance statistics.

    Hi, mrflinstone 

    You can download logs directly from the Power BI service. Go to the Manage connections and gateways page, select the Virtual network data gateways tab, and then locate the VNet data gateway. You can download diagnostic logs, which include system counters, mashup logs, and query execution reports. You can check the following link:

    You can use PowerShell to retrieve performance statistics. First, use Connect to an Azure subscription. Connect-AzAccount can then retrieve the data gateway resource group and name to get the necessary performance data.

    Azure Monitor can be used to collect and aggregate metrics and logs from your VNet data gateway. This service provides a comprehensive view of availability, performance, and resiliency and can notify you of any issues. You can refer to this link:

      Any ideas on why my $performanceStats would be empty? I'm an admin on the gateway etc...
