An agent deployment is underway and questions are growing about the Solarwinds agents in terms of consumption on each server. How can we put together a report that shows us the average consumption on each server since day one?
You could create an Application Template with a Windows Service Monitor component monitor to monitor the agent service then apply the template to all nodes with an agent polling method. I believe the Net service name is 'SolarWindsAgent64'. From there, it will collect the CPU and memory utilisation, and some others, of that service once it is applied to all nodes with an assigned agent.
After that you can create a report either through a SWQL query or using the Dynamic Query Builder. I can help with this part if required.Component Monitor configuration may look something like this:
