How do i find out that file name?

 

i've tried lodctr.exe /S:savedfile and then lodctr.exe /R:savedfile.

I guess the above just saves and reloads the current working counters you have and doesn't actually reset all the standard system ones.

 

 

perfmon counters are a big mystery to me. I've never really grasped where they are located and which file does what and where to change a setting.

 

There is the stuff under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\windows NT\CurrentVerison\Perflib and things like "lastcounter" and "lasthelp" values but i'm not sure what they do exactly.

 

Restoring the .dat files from i386 on the windows disc doesn't seem to do much either.

 

 

 

thanks

sorry. I should've mentioned that I tried that.

The mem,processor,etc counters don't show up in exctrlst.exe either

 

thanks

Hello,,

Did you try to use "exctrlst.exe" that is available in the win2k rkit ?
Here a lin for download
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/exct
rlst-o.asp

This will list for u all perfmon counters availables in you box, and
sometimes counters are just present but hidden or not available.
exctrlst.exe will help u unhide the counters u need.

I have a couple of servers that have lost some key perfmon counters like
memory,processor,process,etc.

How can I get these back?

I don't think just running lodctr /R seems to do anything.

I read on some newsgroup about copying the perfc009.dat and perfh009.dat
from the win2k cd back to system32 but there is little elaboration so
i'm afraid to try this.

Does anyone have any insight on how to restore these?
Thank you
