Post subject: How to automatically start performance logging?
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>win2000>general (more info?)

I am monitoring certain performance counters on a number of servers. I
want it to start and stop at particular times on a regular schedule. In
Server 2008, there is a fully functional scheduler built in to Performance
Logs properties, so no problem there. In Server 2003 and Server 2000 the
scheduler is essentially one-time-only or manual start. In Server 2003
(and XP) there is a command-line tool "logman.exe" that will effect manual
control, so the problem is solved there by setting up a scheduled task.
But I'm stuck with one Server 2000 system. I tried copying logman.exe
from 2003 to the 2000, but that doesn't work.

Anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't see tha answer to my specific
need there. However, I re-read the docs on logman.exe which runs on
W2K3, W2K8 and WXP. It is possible to start logging on another computer
with command with
logman start collectionname -s computername
so I can run a scheduled task on a Server 2003 system to initiate
logging on the Server 2000 system.
