I have configured a Data Collector Set in Performance Monitor. There, I gave it a schedule so it start every day at 8:00 AM and record for 16 hours. That works mostly ok: the Data Collector Set does start at 8:00 AM every day and stop around midnight.

There's just one problem: If I reboot the computer in the middle of the day, the Data Collector Set does not get started automatically.

This all points to Performance Monitor's scheduler design being stupid.

There is no built-in way to tell Performance Monitor something like "just make sure this data collector set runs between 8:00 AM and 12:00 AM".

I'm sure this is a valid use case for a lot of people. What's the proper way to solve this?

Binding a trigger (like "At startup") to your data collector set seems like the way to go from what I've read. You can check http://blogs.technet.com/b/jeff_stokes/archive/2011/11/16/how-to-sustain-your-data-collector-set-through-a-reboot.aspx for a detailed instructions set.
