Use the counter element to define a counter.

Usage

<counter
  id = "Integer"
  symbol = "String"
  uri = "String"
  name = "String"
  description = "String"
  type = "String"
  baseID = "Integer"
  detailLevel = "String"
  defaultScale = " Integer"
  aggregate = "String"
  perfTimeID = "Integer"
  perfFreqID = "Integer"

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
aggregate	String	No	The aggregation function to apply if the instances attribute of counterSet is globalAggregate, multipleAggregate, or globalAggregateHistory. The following are the possible aggregation functions that you can apply: max The maximum counter value is returned. min The minimum counter value is returned. avg The average counter value is returned. sum The sum of the counter values is returned. undefined Do not aggregate this counter.
baseID	Integer	No	The identifier of another counter within the same counter set, whose value is used to calculate this counter's value. The following counter types require a base counter. PERF_AVERAGE_TIMER Requires the PERF_AVERAGE_BASE base counter. PERF_AVERAGE_BULK Requires the PERF_AVERAGE_BASE base counter. PERF_COUNTER_MULTI_TIMER_INV Requires the PERF_COUNTER_MULTI_BASE base counter. PERF_LARGE_RAW_FRACTION Requires the PERF_LARGE_RAW_BASE base counter. PERF_PRECISION_100NS_TIMER Requires the PERF_LARGE_RAW_BASE base counter. PERF_RAW_FRACTION Requires the PERF_RAW_BASE base counter. PERF_SAMPLE_FRACTION Requires the PERF_SAMPLE_BASE base counter.
defaultScale	Integer	No	The scale factor to apply to the counter value (factor * counter value). The default is zero if no scale is applied. Valid values range from -10 to 10 (0.0000000001 - 1000000000). If this value is zero, the scale value is 1; if this value is 1, the scale value is 10; if this value is –1, the scale value is .10; and so on.
description	String	No	A short description of the counter. You do not have to specify this attribute if the counter includes the noDisplay attribute.
detailLevel	String	Yes	Specifies the target audience for the counter details. Possible values are: standard Display details about the counter that a typical user would understand. advanced Display details about the counter that an advanced user would understand.
id	Integer	Yes	A unique number that identifies the counter within the counter set.
name	String	No	The name of the counter. Must be less than 1,024 characters. The name is case-sensitive. You do not have to specify this attribute if the counter includes the noDisplay attribute.
perfFreqID	Integer	No	The identifier of another counter within the same counter set, whose frequency value is used to calculate this counter's value. The following counter types require a frequency. The PERF_COUNTER_LARGE_RAWCOUNT counter type contains the time stamp value. PERF_COUNTER_OBJECT_TIME_QUEUELEN_TYPE PERF_ELAPSED_TIME PERF_OBJ_TIME_TIMER PERF_PRECISION_OBJECT_TIMER
perfTimeID	Integer	No	The identifier of another counter within the same counter set, whose time stamp value is used to calculate this counter's value. The following counter types require a time stamp. The PERF_COUNTER_LARGE_RAWCOUNT counter type contains the time stamp value. PERF_COUNTER_OBJECT_TIME_QUEUELEN_TYPE PERF_ELAPSED_TIME PERF_OBJ_TIME_TIMER PERF_PRECISION_OBJECT_TIMER
symbol	String	No	A symbolic name that identifies the counter. The CTRPP tool creates a constant that you can use when calling functions that require a counter identifier (for example, PerfIncrementULongCounterValue). The name of the constant is the symbolic name. Windows 7: Not supported
type	String	Yes	The name of the counter type. For a list of possible counter types, see Counter Types in the Windows 2003 Deployment Guide. The name is case-sensitive—use lowercase.
uri	String	Yes	A unique uniform resource identifier that lets users retrieve counter values from any location.

Child Elements

Element	Description
counterAttributes	Groups one or more attributes that specifies how the counter data is retrieved from the counter and how it is displayed in a consumer application.

Parent Elements

Element	Description
counterSet	Counter set to which this counter belongs.

counterSet

Counter set to which this counter belongs.

Remarks

To provide backwards-compatibility, each counter in the counter set should specify the same perfFreqID and perfTimeID values.
