Hi Andreas
OK, sorry it took so long, but we have now had an opportunity to
scale these agentless wmi monitors up in volume in actual production
environments (plural).
At one location we are running over 1,000 of these monitors on the
same proxy server. The proxy is a server class dual proc 2.8 GHz
box - nothing special.
Nagios is running with an average plugin execution time of 2 seconds
and the proxy server has less than 5% CPU load. Not too shabby.
The best part is that this is all handled by setting up a domain
account for the scripts to authenticate with. So none of the remote
windows servers had to be touched to configure this. No agents,
no local accounts, nothing.
Scripts we currently have either posted on Nagios Exchange or working
in house and destined to be GPL'd after shakedown are include:
cpu
mem
swap
disk
process
service
More scripts are on the way.
If you have a lot of Windows servers to monitor, this is really
the easiest way to get it done.
