I should mention that this is a short-term project so I have a mandate to
spend as little money as possible.  OpenView, PerfMan and other enterprise
monitoring utilities are therefore out.

Subject: perfmon to log


Is there a way to write the perfmon data to a text file periodically (every
fifteen minutes for two weeks, ideally), specifically the Logical Disk
data--Disk writes/sec, disk write bytes/sec?

I've tried using perfmon's native log format but when I choose Data From
that log file, I see the Logical Disk group category but the subcategory box
is empty.  One possible reason is that *some* but not all of the servers I'm
trying to collect data from do not have diskperf turned on.  Obviously that
needs to be addressed, but does one bad apple in a perfmon session spoil the
whole session?  I can't get data on any of the servers, not even the ones
with diskperf set correctly.
