Hi guys, wish someone could help me on this one - I have
been informed by SAP Basis consultant that my Windows 2000
server performance counters for processors and logical
disks has been missing. In sap R/3, the sapOscol function
is being use to trigger a call to windows API
RegQueryValueEx function to collect performance data at
the OS level. According to him when sapOsCol triggered
windows API RegQueryValueEx it will look for
HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA registry key to obtain the
information but in my case this registry key is either
missing or corrupted. Did anyone know how can I fix this
problem? thanks in advance....

You can Add/Remove them by regedit, but it's much easier to use exctrlst.exe
(Extensible Counter Listing Tool) from the resource kit to enable/ disable
the counters.

Thank for the advice, but unfortunately both technotes
830076 and 315043 doesn't help at all. I'm looking at note
300956 which describe how to rebuild performance counter
library value manually. But it seems very complicated to
me. Any better way?
