Web App Service - PerformanceCollectorModule, added counters not displaying #122

I’m unable to get “Add PerformanceCounter” to work for our deployed Web App Services.

  1. I’ve added the SDK to my .Net (4.6.1) project via VS2017
  2. Installed https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.PerfCounterCollector/
  3. Added a list of counters in ApplicationInsights.config Example list: Add PerformanceCounter="\Process(??APP_WIN32_PROC??)\Handle Count" ReportAs="Process handle count" Add PerformanceCounter="\Process(??APP_WIN32_PROC??)\% Processor Time" ReportAs="Processor Time" Add PerformanceCounter="\Process(??APP_WIN32_PROC??)\% Process CPU" ReportAs="Process CPU" Add PerformanceCounter=".NET CLR Exceptions(??APP_CLR_PROC??)# of Exceps Thrown / sec" ReportAs="CLR Exceps per sec" Add PerformanceCounter="\Process(??APP_WIN32_PROC??)\Private Bytes" ReportAs="Private Bytes" Add PerformanceCounter="\Process(??APP_WIN32_PROC??)\IO Data Bytes/sec" ReportAs="IO Data Bytes"
  4. Deployed the service.

After following the above steps, the added counters don’t appear on the Metrics Explorer blade.

I do see some of the default counters populating; Server Requests, Server Response Time, Failed Requests, etc…

Server counters "\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time " and "\Memory\Available Bytes" don't populate and remain gray with ---

Any thoughts as to why I can’t get system level and custom counters to load?
