Hi,

I ran the following from a front end server to determine active connections...

Get-Counter –Counter "\LS:SIP – 01 – Peers(*)\SIP – 000 – Connections Active" | Select-Object –ExpandProperty CounterSamples | Where-Object {$_.InstanceName –eq "clients"}

and received the following error...

Get-Counter : The specified object was not found on the computer.

At line:1 char:12

+ Get-Counter <<<< -Counter "\LS:SIP - 01 - Peers(*)\SIP - 000 - Connections A

ctive" | Select-Object -ExpandProperty CounterSamples | Where-Object {$_.Instan

ceName -eq "clients"}

+ CategoryInfo : InvalidResult: (:) [Get-Counter], Exception

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CounterApiError,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Ge

tCounterCommand

Thanks.
