  • 1.  windows perfmon counters

    Posted Nov 26, 2008 12:59 AM
    I'd like to know if it's possible to monitor specific permon counters and how I could do that?

    I already looked at http://support.hyperic.com/display/hypcomm/Windows+Plugin .
    I want to access counters that are not related to a process.
    Some examples :
    - Memory; Pages/sec, Pages Reads/sec

    Any help or example would be really appreciated!

    Thanks.

    Ben,

    you might already know, that metrics collection is based on the SIGAR framework and all metrics are displayed on the website you mentioned.
    But maybe there's a way to use perfmon, write the output to a file and use a Script Plugin :
