My knowledge may be a bit off here, but if I remember correctly you can run the PerfMon on another workstation and the server should be fine. You do not want to run the PerfMon on the server(s) in question though as that will increase your overhead. Especially, if you are collecting data so often (every 15 seconds seems excessive to me personally).
Anyway, that is my two cents.

I've been asked to gather the Processor/Memory/MSExchangeIS/Logical Disk/Physical Disk data every fifteen seconds, on EVERY option under each of those categories. By my count, that's 214 different items to monitor. Does the increased item count make much of a difference on the taxing of the server? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Crowley [MVP] Sent: Friday, June 08, 2007 7:20 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Performance Monitor I don't know that your system would notice that kind of monitoring interval, but what are you really going to do with all that data? Further, the counters you have listed don't change fast enough to make a 15-second interval any more useful than a 15-minute interval.

I've been asked to gather Processor/Memory/MSExchangeiS/Logical Disk/Physical Disk data every 15 seconds for one week. Is that extreme?
