Hi,

I am runnign MX version 7 and I am getting this error message in application log "cfperfmon_mx.dll library is not
aligned on an 8-byte boundary ".
I am using sitescope to monitor some of the services that is running on that server and that is giving me problem now.

I would be appreciated if someone can help me.

    Sorry about that. The following is the link to the article:

    [L= [L=http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;249138]]http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;249138] [L=http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;249138]http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;249138

    I somehow got the period at the end of the link to be part of the url and that's why it didn't work. Even though the article is for Win 2K and XP it should work for Windows 2003 as well.

    Ted,

    Can you give the Microsoft KB article number to cross reference with our LAN service team.
    Thanks

    It's a benign message. See Microsoft article http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;249138.

    Per the article you'll want to edit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib with

    0x01 - Do not test for data buffer alignment errors. Suppresses 1016 event.

    Make sure you back up the registry key before editing.
