Performance monitoring with perfmon
The Windows perfmon utility can be used to collect performance statistics for Virtual SSAS instances
based on the performance counters installed with SQL Server. Virtual SSAS instances are monitored
in the same manner as stand-alone SSAS instances or instances installed on a MSCS cluster. You must
have the appropriate permissions to access the target server (via a physical or virtual hostname).
When connected, you can select the desired counters to monitor.
Also note the following:
• Remote Registry Service must be running on the target node.
• You must have remote registry access right to browse the counter.
• Be sure to use the 64-bit version of perfmon to monitor 64-bit instances.

and drop” on the Applications tab to move the Virtual SSAS from the current primary node to another
node, or you can select the Rehost option using either of these methods:
• On the Applications tab, right-click the Virtual SSAS (in the Name column) and then select Rehost.
(Or use drag and drop.)
• On the Servers or Virtual Hosts tab, locate the Virtual SSAS, right-click, and select Rehost.
When the Rehost option is selected, the following dialog appears:
