Bling.ps1 (a functional proof of concept for PAL v2.0)

  • Artykuł

Work on PAL v2.0 (PowerShell version) is coming along nicely. While working on it, I created a functional proof of concept PowerShell script called Bling.ps1 which will read a performance monitor log (BLG or CSV) and will create graphical charts for all of the counters in it. PAL v1.x only creates charts and stats for performance counters named in the threshold files, so this is a new feature. Oh, and BLING stands for BLg INto imaGes. :-)
