## Project Description

Ever have a performance problem, but don't know what performance counters to collect or how to analyze them?

The PAL (Performance Analysis of Logs) tool is a powerful tool that reads in a performance monitor counter log and analyzes it using known thresholds.

## Features

 - Thresholds files for most of the major Microsoft products such as IIS, MOSS, SQL Server, BizTalk, Exchange, and Active Directory.

 - An easy to use GUI interface which makes creating batch files for the PAL.ps1 script.

 - A GUI editor for creating or editing your own threshold files.

 - Creates an HTML based report for ease of copy/pasting into other applications.

 - Analyzes performance counter logs for thresholds using thresholds that change their criteria based on the computer's role or hardware specs.

 

 ## Requirements

 The current stable release version requires the Microsoft .NET 4.7.2 framework feature to be enabled on the Windows device.

## How to download

If you wish to install the PAL tool, then download `PAL_Setup`. It contains the Microsoft installer files. Right-click and go to Properties of the zip file, select Unblock, and then click OK. Extract the zip file to a new, empty folder, and then run Setup.

If you just want to run it without installation, then download `PAL_FlatFile`. Right-click and go to Properties of the zip file, select Unblock, and then click OK. Extract the zip file to a new, empty folder, and then run PALWizard.exe to use the tool.

Both files can be downloaded from the [releases section](https://github.com/clinthuffman/PAL/releases)

## How to use

Run PALWizard.exe to use the PAL Wizard tool. Otherwise, use PAL.ps1 directly.
