How to check load on windows server by using C# coding?

Question

I have 6 windows servers, those are working on different locations.

i need to check load on each server from one Server by using C# coding.

Thanks in advance.

Checking for available physical memory. Like, if See Task manager in that performance tab we can observe CPU and Memory graphs and also values are displaying i need to get that Memory Value. — Rajesh PV, Jan 21 '11 at 06:28

why does it have to be C#? Wouldn't WMI or Powershell be more appropriate? — David Heffernan, Jan 21 '11 at 07:35
System load is VERY vague. On most DB systems hard-disk IO is a bottleneck. Using memory load/proc % is completely useless unless you track IO load too. — CodingBarfield, Jan 21 '11 at 08:16

I guess you can use the PerformanceCounter class from the System.Diagnostics namespace. It has the following constructor:

public PerformanceCounter(
    string categoryName,
    string counterName,
    string instanceName,
    string machineName
)

You can see a simple example on this page.
