Metrics: CPU & MEMORY Usage not working

[Iantidon]

Hi,

Please help fix why my METRICS doesn't show CPU and MEMORY usage.

Disk Usage is working fine. It's just the CPU and Memory.

Thanks,

How did you add the CPU & Memory services? Are you using custom plugins or you ran one of our "default" wizards?

The metrics component is somewhat limited. It would only show you the metrics monitored "by default" if you used our wizards. For the CPU and Memory Usage in particular, I believe, it would only show the checks added by the Windows Server (or Desktop) Monitoring Wizard. Having said that, a new version of the Metrics component is in the works. The new version of the component will fix this issue. I don't have an ETA, but expect to see it in the next major release of XI.

Hi,

I used the wizard "Windows WMI"

Windows WMI metrics don't support the metrics component. You'll have to use the Windows Server wizard (check_nt method) of monitoring those metrics.

Similarly, today, SNMP checks through Linux don't land in the metrics component, only NRPE checks.

As lmiltchev said, updates to the Metrics component that should allow greater support are in the works, but not here yet.
