Hi All, first post - please go easy on me.
We're using SolarWinds to monitor the status of our Virtualisation platform as well as the performance of various applications. We use SQL Server and IIS (amongst other technologies) and we love the fact that AppInsights for IIS/SQL Server tells us what's going on (we've been able to tune some aspects of our operation in response to some of those views). Now to the problem - some components in SolarWinds just don't work for us - RPC's an insecure protocol (it's also locked down by IT policy, no, it cannot be opened up) and I've created new monitors for some applications using WMI in its place. That's fine for some cases, but it means that we have problems with some of the AppInsight monitors as they appear to use RPC for Performance Monitor Counters. Is there a way I can change this to use WMI instead of RPC? Or is it possible to use some system wide default (e.g. use WMI and avoid RPC all together) for all performance monitors?
Thanks in advance.
