Hi Guys, Having issues with Nagios sending notifications because sometimes it receives a negative value for CPU usage using the WMI plugin.

Still getting the same error on a different box and different network. Running NagiosXI 2011r1.5 with the WMI plugin. Running the command manually from the cmdline spits out the original error. Any suggestions or updates?

This is a big problem!!!
