Duplicating Hosts

When you duplicate a host, Performance Explorer creates a new host node in the Monitor tree and adds all measures that are specified for the selected host.

Select a host (a top-level node) in the Monitor tree. This host will be duplicated.
On the Real-Time Monitoring tab, in the Host group, click Duplicate.
Specify the Hostname of the new host and an Alias and click Next. The alias will display as name of the new host in the Monitor tree. Depending on the specified data source, fields with various connection parameters appear. These fields are automatically populated with the original values.
If there are configurable attributes for the specified data source, a Change Attributes button appears.
Enter the credentials of the host and click Finish. The measures are checked to confirm validity. If invalid measures are discovered, you have the option of changing the connection parameters or ignoring the measures.
Note: It is not possible to duplicate or rename invalid measures.

Note: Measures are grouped into measure groups when they use the same data source and connection parameters. For example: If you have PerfMon measures with different credentials, you have different measure groups.
