Microsoft.Windows.Server.6.2.OperatingSystem.MemoryPagesOutputPerSec.Collection (Rule)

Collects the performance counter Memory\Pages Output/sec

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This rule collects performance data for the Memory\Pages Output/sec performance counter.

Pages Output/sec is the rate at which pages are written to disk to free up space in physical memory. Pages are written back to disk only if they are changed in physical memory, so they are likely to hold data, not code.
