using logman/perfmon to collect windows servers information

Hello,
I saw your latest presentation on loadui and had a suggest on integrating perfmon stats for windows servers.
Instead of the working with WMI via soapUI, does it make sense to use logman ?

via logman you can define what counters need to be monitored. MS provides a schema to use for perfmon stats so all the stats are written to a MS SQL.
of if logman is used to collect data to MS SQL server, soapUI/loadui can incorproate servers stats by just querying the database rather than figuring out WMI.

We are currently using to logman/JMeter/psexec to achieve this. we do the following
1. Via hudson, we remotely start logman on the some set of servers,
2. logman starts writing defined metrics to MS SQL Server,
3. hudson then starts JMeter,
4. Jmeter stops at some time
5. Hudson stops logman via psexec
6. Hudson+groovy+some scripts mine data from Jmeter/MS SQL server to generate reports.


Thanks
