Performance Monitor

  • When I attempt to start a counter log in Performance Monitor, I get an error message. The message in the application log is as follows:

    The service was unable to add the counter '\\cbi1nt18\System\Processor Queue Length' to the Daily Log log or alert. This log or alert will continue, but data for that counter will not be collected. To collect data from a remote computer, the Performance Logs and Alerts service must run under an account that has access to the remote system.

    I checked to make sure I had rights, and I do.

    Thanks for your help!

  • Look in COntrol Panel and Services at Performance Logs and Alerts and see what account the serivice is LogOnAs under. Most likely it is LocalSystem, you need to change this on the box you run it from to an account with access to the remote server.
