If you'd like to follow along with this tutorial, please be sure you have the following prerequisites in place. These tasks are what you're primarily going to learn in this article. You can create perfmon templates from existing data collector sets and can be imported. Once you have that template, you can then easily transfer that data collector set to other machines. Templates, stored as XML, allow you to capture all of the parameters needed to query performance counters and to create data collections. It is these data collector sets or groups of parameters that define what to log and when is how you can save time with templates. Perfmon captures data from parameters set in data collector sets which control things like the log directory, log schedules, and any stop conditions. If not, you risk negatively affecting the performance of your servers! Only capture the data you need via performance monitoring. Once the attributes are set, perfmon captures data into one of several formats: binary log, SQL, Data Source Name (DSN), or CSV. Windows Performance Monitor ( perfmon) is a native Windows tool for administrators to specify attributes like performance counters, event tracing for Windows events, and system configuration items. How Templates Work in Windows Performance Monitoring In this article, you’ll learn how to do Windows Performance Monitoring by building XML performance monitoring templates to save yourself valuable time.
