Adding counters
Beginning in Windows Server 2012, you can determine when a DCS runs, so you can schedule
regular performance monitoring. To schedule a DCS to run as a scheduled job, you have to
configure the DCS.
The DCS can be set as a scheduled task during initial creation or after it is created by right-
clicking on the DCS and selecting Properties to open the Properties dialog box for the DCS.
Click the Schedule tab and click Add to add a schedule to the DCS, as shown in Figure 1-13.
NOTE
MANAGING PERMISSIONS AND RIGHTS REQUIRED
To allow a scheduled DCS to run, it must be scheduled to run as a user with Log On As A
Batch User rights. Members of the Performance Log Users and Administrators groups have
this permission, or it can be assigned directly to a specified account by using a GPO.
