I want to set up Perfmon counter logs to log to a csv file. Then at the end
of each day I want to schedule a SQL DTS package to import the data from the
csv file to a reporting database. My problem is that I don't see any way to
schedule the perfmon counter to restart each day? It seems that you can only
schedule it to start/stop one time but I see no way to set up a recurring
daily start/stop at which time the older data would be purged so that the
counter log would not grow uncontrolled. Are there any command line options
which could be configured to start and stop counter logs on a schedule?
 
What you need is logman.exe which doesn't exist in Windows 2000.

You know I actually am running 2003 on the servers in question so I looked at
logman.exe and my problem is solved, it does exactly what I needed. Thanks
for the help.
