Is there any way to get this value based on it's average?

(APM 4.2)

Is there any way to monitor this WMI component and get it's value as an 'average', much like it does when using PerfMon?

The average in the Windows Performance Counter is calculated data and not stored in WMI or as a Windows Performance Counter object. SAM also calculates this average as depicted in by the blue line in the chart below.

Here's my challenge...

I need to monitor & alert on a WMI metric SYSTEM: Processor Queue Length for anytime it's average goes over the value of 10 within a period of 1minute 40seconds (the time there may be flexible).

This is an Exchange monitoring metric given to us from MSFT support. Can you elaborate on where this blue line correlates to using it in an alert also? Thanks.

Very similar to the Windows Performance Monitor, the average in SAM is a calculated value and not stored in the database. It's calculated on the fly for those chart resources. You could certainly create a custom SQL alert in the Advanced Alert Manager to perform the same function based on the parameters you've specified.
