Determine When to Switch to Log Distribution Services v2

- On the machine where you have LogRhythm installed, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Performance Monitor.
Alternatively, open a command line and type perfmon. - Under Monitoring Tools, click Performance Monitor.
- Press Ctrl + G until the graph type changes to a report.
- Right-click the report, and then click Add Counters.
- Under available counters, expand LogRhythm Mediator: LDS.
- Select #Logs Dropped, and then click Add.
- Select #Processing Errors, and then click Add.
- Click OK.
