Playing with Perfmon Stats files - Relog

I used the windows RELOG utility today for the first time.

The relog utility allows you to perform actions on windows perfmon log files.
The tool is really quite handy and just saved me a heap of what i thought would be manual work.

RELOG /? - from the command line will get you all the switches

Basic command syntax

RELOG "input.file" -C "list of counters required" -F CSV -o "output.file"

I was using today the following command to change my BLG file to a CSV file and to only show me the Disk Q length counter.

RELOG "mycounters.BLG" -C "\\myserver\PhysicalDisk(_Total)\Avg. Disk Queue Length"
-F CSV -o "output.txt"
