Run Performance Monitor remotely

Share on:
  • Add Firewall rule Performance Logs and Alerts from the predefined rule list.
  • From client, run the Performance Monitor as the remote user Eg: runas /netonly /user:remote_machine\username "mmc perfmon.msc"
  • Add the user connecting to user groups "Performance Log users" and/or "Performance Monitor Users".

In perfmon, don't directly connect to remote computer, go to add new performance counter and type in the ip/host in "Select counters from computer".

Tip: Run first mmc (start it with the user as above) and Add snapin-module. Then you are able to Save as... to save the counter-setup.
