Performance Monitor has no SQL Server Objects

  • Greetings,

    I am trying to monitor a SQL Server running Windows 2000 Advanced Server and SQL Server 2000 Enterprise with Performance Monitor however, the SQL Server Performance Objects are missing. Has anyone seen this before?

    Thanks.

  • There are a few ways they can disappear but let's start with the simplest possibility. They may have been unreged from server some how.

    Open up a command prompt and move to the Binn folder where the Sqlctr80.dll binary can be found (old dos CD stuff, default is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Binn).

    Now run

    regsvr32 sqlctr80.dll

    then check to see if returned. If this does not work check the Event Viewer logs to see if any messages, also let me know if this is a clustered server, or multi-version server (SQL 7 and 2000 on same box).

  • Antares, Thanks for the idea. I will try that tonight after I stop services. I attempted once while the services were running and received an error stating that the file "may be in memory" aka in use. I'll repost tomorrow with details of either success or failure.

    Thanks again.

  • Antares was right on with this one. Attempting to register the dll didn't work as normal but replacing the dll and restarting did do the trick. Sorry for the delay in getting back on this one.

    Thanks for the help!
