Creating a performance trace
To create a performance trace, follow these steps:
- In the left-hand pane of the Statistical Console, select the top-level node Performance Trace
.
- Right click to bring up the popup menu. Select New Perfmon Trace. The Choose the Perfmon Agent Host
dialog box opens.

- Select the host to be used and click OK
- The Agent Controller must be running on the machine specified in Connect to this host:
- If the performance objects are required for the machine on which Hyades
is actually running (i.e. localhost), you do not need to change any information in the dialog box.
- If the performance objects from a remote machine are required,
select Connect to remote registry and type the name or IP address of the remote machine.
Note : use the Perfmon format for specifying the remote machine, i.e. preceed the host name or IP address
with double backslashes, e.g. "\\192.168.1.23" or "\\smithy".
A new node appears in the left-hand pane of the Statistical console.
