Lifecycle Services Customization analysis

An automated tool that validates the customer’s model files against Microsoft Dynamics AX best-practice rules for tables, classes, forms, and enums. It then generates reports, including a summary report display on the site, a detailed Microsoft Excel report that lists all issues, and a developer report that the developer can load in the Microsoft Dynamics AX development environment.

For more information, see: Customization analysis

Lifecycle Services Upgrade analysis

A tool that helps users plan a full-version upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 from Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 or Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009, or a minor version or in-place upgrades from one version of AX 2012 to another.

Trace Parser

Microsoft Dynamics AX Trace Parser consolidates information from multiple sources, such as remote procedure calls (RPCs) and Microsoft SQL Server, to provide an integrated view of application performance at run time. For more information, see:

Performance analyzer (DynamicsPerf)

DynamicsPerf can be used to collect information from Microsoft Dynamics AX and Microsoft SQL Server. It consists of a database and a collection of scripts that are used to collect information from SQL Server and Microsoft Dynamics AX. Based on this information, you can find issues such as expensive queries, locking/blocking, and, after you gain some experience, inefficient code or business processes. For more information, see:

Systems Center Operations Manager Management Packs

The Management Pack for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 can be used to monitor your core system. It can automatically discover the servers in your environment, monitor server availability, and find setup best practice violations. For more information, see: System Center Monitoring Pack for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

The Management Pack for Microsoft Dynamics AX Retail 2012 R3 automatically discovers the Retail components in your environment, and monitors the configuration and availability of those components. It provides early warnings that an operator can use to proactively identify issues that can affect the availability of the Microsoft Dynamics AX Retail system.

Lifecycle Services System diagnostic service

The System diagnostic service helps administrators monitor and understand the health of one or more Microsoft Dynamics AX environments. It can be configured to: discover on-premises Microsoft Dynamics AX environments, collect data from the environments that were discovered, run rules on the collected data, report rule violations on a dashboard, and provide reports. For more information, see:System diagnostic service

Microsoft Visual Studio Profiling Tools

The Visual Studio Profiling Tools help you identify performance issues in source code and compare the performance of possible solutions. For more information, see:
