Check two or more performance counters

I have done a script that will check two performance counters and generate an alert if both are over threshold values. It simple to add more performance counters and change the threshold values. I have test it on Windows Server 2003 and Window XP 32bit. Its fairly basic, but it will show you a way to generate an alert based on two or more performance counters.

strComputer = “.”
Set objWMIService = GetObject(“winmgmts:” _
& “{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\” & strComputer & “\root\cimv2”)
set objRefresher = CreateObject(“WbemScripting.SWbemRefresher”)
Set colItems = objRefresher.AddEnum _
(objWMIService, “Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_System”).objectSet
objRefresher.Refresh
For i = 1 to 2
For Each objItem in colItems

strProc = objItem.Processes
strCPUQL = objItem.ProcessorQueueLength

If strProc > 40 AND strCPUQL > 0 Then
Const EVENT_WARNING = 2
Set objShell = CreateObject(“Wscript.Shell”)
objShell.LogEvent 2, “Number of processer: ” & strProc & “. Processor Queue Lenght: ” & strCPUQL
End If
objRefresher.Refresh
Next
Next

1. Create a new script and paste the script source
2. Create a new event rule to run the script every X minute as respond
3. Create a new event rule to collect event ID 2 and event type of Warning
4. Commit configuration change
