If you are using the Splunk 5.0 Universal Forwarder, then the method of configuring perfmon has changed which is incompatible with the current plug-ins. Read the following: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0/Data/Real-timeWindowsperformancemonitoring

Once you have done that, you will be able to convert the perfmon.conf to inputs.conf and that should fix the perfmon issue.

Now that you have perfmon data, take a look at the other data. Please post a list of source types that you are getting data for within the msexchange index.
