APM Data Transfer Health

Microsoft.SystemCenter.Apm.Infrastructure.DataTransferService.Monitor (UnitMonitor)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The instance state becomes unhealthy when an error is detected on the Management Server when it is performing Data Transfer, Aggregation, and Grooming activities related to APM Events on the Operations and/or Data Warehouse databases.

Causes

Typically, this depends on availability of the database, its load, and general load on the system. It could be a transient condition in which the monitor will reset to healthy state after one hour.

Resolutions

Verify that the Operations and Data Warehouse Databases are up and running. If this happens frequently, consider reducing the amount of data collected by APM by tuning or adjusting thresholds.
