[rrd-users] Re: NT Monitoring?

[Mohan, Ross]

remstats...hmm...did i see that on www.wtcs.org?

My thing is getting the data from the Perf service's CSV
automagically into a round robin database and spewing out
gifs. Again, I'm a newbie, so i realize these are routine
questions......

thanks for your thoughts!

Ross

I have done this using my remstats package with an NT-specific server
running on a NT box.  I have yet to find completely satisfactory ways
of getting the information I want.  The perfcounters are very
interesting-looking, but for at least half of them, I can't figure
out how to interpret them, making them not very useful.  Some of them
do have good information though.  I've also run various programs from
the NT Resource Kit from the server.  This works, but due to
expensive process-creation on NT doesn't scale very well.  Also, some
of the programs are *very* slow sometimes.
