Windows 2000 System Monitor
The Windows 2000 System Monitor (Windows NT Performance Monitor) is a tool for monitoring resource usage on a computer running Microsoft® Windows NT® or Microsoft Windows® 2000. Users can set up charts that present resource usage data in graphical form. The Windows System Monitor has many different counters, each of which measures some resource on the computer.
The Windows System Monitor is extensible so server applications can add their own performance counters. Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000 adds counters to Windows System Monitor to track items such as:
- SQL Server I/O.
- SQL Server memory usage.
- SQL Server user connections.
- SQL Server locking.
- Replication activity.
