I am trying to give some statistics to my manager about the production sql server which is going to be live soon. As a team member, I was asked to find if there is any performance problem in sql server. So I am using performance monitor and sql profiler to identify any bottlenecks in sql server. I have scheduled the performance monitor for 9 hrs and captured the log(and also captured the sql queries) when the system was tested by the testing team by some testing tools. Since I am using the performance monitor for the first time, I am finding hard time to understand the statistics(graph). I need some help to understand the log which I captured thru perfmon to identify any sql server hardware bottlenecks. Please let me know if you need more details. Mohammed, Thanks for the url which is very useful. Thanks,
Bala
