Getting % cpu used in win2k

quozl

HI guys,
is there any way to get the %cpu used from the commandline in windows2k server? I want to run a program on a unix box that will regularily telnet to a load of 2k servers, check how much cpu is being used and update the main database.
Or I can do it the other way around with processes on the win2k reporting to the unix box. But either way, how can I get %cpu used in win2k, in a format useable for a simple c program. ANything similar to PS, or checking the /proc directory?

Taskman?

Not sure but performance monitor (perfmon.exe) will log to a text file which u can tell the unix box to parse at whatever intervals.

Taskman wont do it. its gui only
I'll have a look at the performance logger. I thought you had to be logged in to have it running. Thanks for the suggestion,

Shouldn't that be:

"Getting % cpu wasted in win2k"

for full diagnostics best bet would be to use SNMP and MRTG..
