Constructor

PerfCounterDataSource(*, streams: List[str | _models.KnownPerfCounterDataSourceStreams] | None = None, sampling_frequency_in_seconds: int | None = None, counter_specifiers: List[str] | None = None, transform_kql: str | None = None, name: str | None = None, **kwargs: Any)

Keyword-Only Parameters

Name Description
streams

Default value: None
sampling_frequency_in_seconds
int

The number of seconds between consecutive counter measurements (samples).

Default value: None
counter_specifiers

A list of specifier names of the performance counters you want to collect. Use a wildcard (*) to collect a counter for all instances. To get a list of performance counters on Windows, run the command 'typeperf'.

Default value: None
transform_kql
str

The KQL query to transform the data source.

Default value: None
name
str

A friendly name for the data source. This name should be unique across all data sources (regardless of type) within the data collection rule.
