Description
Create an in-memory object for PerfCounterDataSource.
Examples
Example 1: creates a PerfCounterDataSource with Microsoft-InsightsMetrics
New-AzPerfCounterDataSourceObject -CounterSpecifier "\\Processor(_Total)\\% Processor Time" -Name perfCounter01 -SamplingFrequencyInSecond 60 -Stream Microsoft-InsightsMetrics
CounterSpecifier Name SamplingFrequencyInSecond Stream
---------------- ---- ------------------------- ------
{\\Processor(_Total)\\% Processor Time} perfCounter01 60 {Microsoft-InsightsMetrics}
This command creates a PerfCounterDataSource with Microsoft-InsightsMetrics.
Example 2: Create a PerfCounterDataSource with Microsoft-Perf
New-AzPerfCounterDataSourceObject -CounterSpecifier "\\Processor(_Total)\\% Processor Time","\\Memory\\Committed Bytes","\\LogicalDisk(_Total)\\Free Megabytes","\\PhysicalDisk(_Total)\\Avg. Disk Queue Length" -Name cloudTeamCoreCounters -SamplingFrequencyInSecond 15 -Stream Microsoft-Perf
CounterSpecifier Name SamplingFrequencyInSecond Stream
---------------- ---- ------------------------- ------
{\\Processor(_Total)\\% Processor Time, \\Memory\\Committed Bytes, \\LogicalDisk(_Total)\\Free Megabytes, \\PhysicalDisk(_Total)\\Avg. Disk Queue Length} cloudTeamCoreCounters 15 {Microsoft-Perf}
This command creates a PerfCounterDataSource with Microsoft-Perf.
Parameters
-CounterSpecifier
A list of specifier names of the performance counters you want to collect. Use a wildcard (*) to collect a counter for all instances. To get a list of performance counters on Windows, run the command 'typeperf'.
