Very disconcerting when you look in the CMC and the server doesn't respond. You can't even see active users logged onto the box although active processes tab does display. All returns to normal after a few minutes. Wondering if this explains our sluggish performance that sporadically happens. ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Carl Stalhood Sent: 04 January 2007 21:30 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Perflib errors I see these kinds of errors a lot so I just ignore them.

There may be a problem with this extensible counter or the service it is collecting data from or the system may have been very busy when this call was attempted. or The timeout waiting for the performance data collection function "TermService" in the "C:\WINNT\system32\perfts.dll" Library to finish has expired. There may be a problem with this extensible counter or the service it is collecting data from or the system may have been very busy when this call was attempted. We run Metaframe XPe FR3 on Windows 2000 Sp4 and use RM on HP tin. We think we get all these errors because we have too many things running on the boxes monitoring performance. E.g. the OS, RM HP management agents and NETIQ. Boxes appear to show no information in the CMC but if you wait 10 mins or so the box is fine. Whilst in this state the above event log messages occur. Anyone have any ideas? We were thinking about disabling the HP Management agent (just the Performance monitor on) but can't work out how to automate this. Thanks Malcolm
