ExchangeMetrics: Message Sizes

Use the Message Sizes page to configure message size frames for which to return summary metrics by server. It is a wizard page for the category of:

  • Message Size Statistics Custom.

Exchange Metrics Data Collector Wizard Message Sizes page

Configure the message size frames you want using the following options:

  • Frame name – Name the configured message size parameters. Enter a name manually, or let a default populate when you set query limits.
  • Start – Specify the lower limit of the message sizes (in MB)
  • End – Specify the upper limit of the message sizes (in MB)

For example, a Start value of 1 and an End value of 2 returns messages between 1 and 2 megabytes.

  • Infinite – Select the checkbox to remove the End value from the scan. For example, a Start value of 5 with the Infinite checkbox selected retrieves all messages which are 5 megabytes or larger.

After you configure the frame, click Add. The configured message size frame will appear in the list. You can configure multiple frames. Select a frame and click Replace to modify an existing frame. Use Remove to delete an existing frame.
