Which Object to Add to Data Collector Set for Monitoring Custom Applications on Server1?

Question

You have a server named Server1 that runs the Remote Desktop Session Host role service. Server1 has five custom applications installed.

Users who sign in to Server1 report that the server is slow. Task Manager shows that the average CPU usage on Server1 is above 90 percent. You suspect that a custom application on Server1 is consuming excessive processor capacity.

You plan to create a Data Collector Set in Performance Monitor to gather performance statistics from Server1.

You need to view the resources used by each of the five applications.

Which object should you add to the Data Collector Set?

The correct answer for this question is C. Process.

When creating a Data Collector Set in Performance Monitor, you have the option to add various performance objects that collect data related to different aspects of the system. In this scenario, you want to view the resources used by each of the five custom applications installed on Server1.

The "Process" object in Performance Monitor is used to collect data related to the performance of individual processes running on a system. By adding the "Process" object to the Data Collector Set, you will be able to view detailed performance statistics for each of the custom applications running on Server1, such as CPU usage, memory usage, disk usage, and network usage.

Alternatively, if you were only interested in viewing the overall CPU usage on the server, you could add the "Processor" object to the Data Collector Set. However, this would not give you the granularity you need to identify which application(s) are consuming excessive processor capacity.

Adding the "Processor information" or "Processor performance" objects would also not provide the specific information needed to identify the resource usage of individual processes. "Processor information" provides details about the processor architecture and configuration, while "Processor performance" provides overall performance statistics for the processor, such as utilization and interrupts.

In conclusion, to view the resources used by each of the five custom applications on Server1, you should add the "Process" object to the Data Collector Set in Performance Monitor.
