Windows Server 2012 data deduplication and volume monitoring

Hello,

I enabled the data deduplication feature on a 2012 Windows server but I've noticed the volume monitoring is no longer working correctly:

Windows shows 186GB free on the E: volume since dedup has been running:

SolarWinds is only showing 13.9GB available:

And here you can see where I enabled dedup in Windows. The graph suddenly goes to 0%:

The server is being monitored via SNMP.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is this a SolarWinds issue or is it SNMP on the Windows server that doesn't understand dedup?

Thanks.

Oops. I've just found that for some reason the volume wasn't selected under the node. I've selected the volume and will wait for it to collect data and see if it's working as expected.

This is probably a false alarm

So yeah, false alarm. Sorry! Everything is working as expected.
