Hello!
I try to get memory working set for some process, but get error below:
Code: Select all
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nt -H 10.251.36.83 -p 5666 -s asdf4321 -v COUNTER -l "\\Process(some_process)\\Working Set","WS: %.f"
NSClient - ERROR: Invalid return from command: check_pdh
I'm sure that I use right process name. Also I can find this process with Process Monitor on local machine.
Are there any ways of monitoring hidden processes?
Thank you in advance!

Can you show us a screenshot of an actual performance counter existing for this process? Not all processes will have counters to monitor.
This document should help you out -

Are you just trying to monitor if a process is running?
