    Hi,

    It seems that the error you're encountering during the installation of the Service Manager Data Warehouse is related to the performance counters for the SDK.

    Here are some steps and considerations that might help resolve this issue:

    • Ensure that all prerequisites for the installation are met. This includes verifying that the necessary components and configurations are in place. You can refer to the System Center Service Manager system requirements for detailed information.
    • Make sure that the account used for the installation has the necessary permissions. This includes administrative rights on the server and appropriate permissions on the SQL Server.
    • Review the installation logs for more detailed error messages. The logs can provide specific information about what went wrong during the installation process. You can find the logs in the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft System Center\Service Manager\Log directory.
