object to database files.
Follow these steps:
- Expand Configuration and Service for the
system from which performance data is being collected.
- Select Collection Services.
- Right-click the management collection object from which you want
to export data to the database files.
- You can first select Properties to display
the characteristics of the data in the collection object. On the Data properties
page, you can see the categories of data collected in this collection object
as well as the intervals at which they were collected. You can use this information
in selecting the data that you want to export. When you have reviewed this
information, click OK.
- Right-click the management collection object again and select Create
Database Files. Complete the fields using the online help.

After you convert the data in the database files, you can use the
