Performance Monitor corrupted

At a customer site, I was setting up performance monitoring using PerfMon on several servers, when I at one server encountered the following prolem…
NO performance counter “names” – just numbers…

Running just one tiny command solved the problem

%systemdrive%\windows\system32

lodctr.exe /r

observe that I use a “r” and not “R” as documented

Quest QMX are not inserting data in SCOM Datawarehouse by default

I was at a customer, who wanted to generate performance report - and some of these performance reports was regarding VMware, which is monitored using Quest QMX.
But I found no perf data regarding the VMware.

It turned out, that a stiny little checkmark was missing in the QMX Configuration Tool:
g_boolWriteOpsMgrPerfMetricsToDWDB (OpsMgrGlobalVariables)
