Tables CounterData, CounterDetails and DisplayToId should have been created. You can validate that the script worked by checking your PerfmonDB database. $AllArgs = '-f', 'SQL', '-o', $sqlDSNconection) $sqlDSNconection = "SQL:Perfmon_DSN!logfile"

$sourceBlg = "C:LogsDataCollection_Combined.blg"
#PERFMON EXE CODE#
To do this you can run relog.exe from PowerShell as shown on the code below. blg file into the SQL database thru your DNS connection. Step 3: Use relog.exe to load the combined, or single. Preferably chose NT Authentication and change the default database to PerfmonDB, keep all other defaults Name: Perfmon_DSN, Description: Perfmon, Server: ) Select SQL Server (not native client) and type the connection configuration details (e.g. Run odbcad32.exe, go to the System DSN tab and click on 'Add' to add a new Source To create the ODBC-System DNS connection: Step 2: Create a SQL Server ODBC- System DSN source named Perfmon_DSN that points to your SQL Server and Database Note: SQL Express editions do not work since it you would need to create the ODBC connection thru the SQL Native client (to localDB) and that will create problems with relog.exe since it won't recognize the DSN source. For this example I'm using SQL Server 2016, I have also successfully loaded Perfmon data to a SQL 2012 database. Step 1: You will need to create a new database in SQL (e.g. $combinedFile = "C:LogsDataCollection_Combined.blg" For this you can use relog.exe, it's important to point out that you can use relog.exe from the Command Prompt console, or you can use a PowerShell script as follows for easier editing of the attributes and local paths: blg file for easier handling, or you can chose to keep them separate. blg files, you can join them together into a single. Optionally: Once you have one or several. Once created you need to run the Data Collection for an given amount of time (e.g.

Prerequisite: Create a PERFMON log file (.blg) by running a trace in a server, to do this you need to create a Perfmon Data Collection Set, there are a few templates by default or you can create or lookup a specific template. , although We have updated it by using PowerShell to provide better maintainability and Pivot charts on Excel 2016: We have based this information on a 2012 blog-post by Prashant Kumar blg files into a SQL Database and then pull data from the SQL Database into an Excel pivot chart.
#PERFMON EXE HOW TO#
In the following steps, We will show you how to load the PERFMON. for a report, then you probably need something better that PERFMON charts. However, if what you need is to create nice-looking charts, overlay counters, pie charts, etc. blg file, dragging the various counters to the chart and doing actions like comparisons, looking for threshold violations, etc. The analysis can be done directly on PERFMON by loading the. Usually, in such scenario, Customer gets someone who does have access to run a Perform Data Collection while the Performance test is running and then send us the. Without the access, a Visual Studio Load Test will not be able to collect performance metrics from the target servers.

We came across a scenario where a customer needs to run a Performance Test of an Application but due to security policies, customer is not able to provide Server-Level access to the Servers where the Application is hosted.
