Background:
I am using NPM 9.1 SP5 & APM 2.5
Problem:
I am using a WMI query to get some disk IO statistics for my Windows hosts. One example is:
SELECT CurrentDiskQueueLength FROM Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfDisk_PhysicalDisk WHERE Name='_Total'
This query works great on 2003 systems. Win32_PerfFormattedData is not available in Windows 2000, so i tried using this query instead:
SELECT CurrentDiskQueueLength FROM Win32_PerfRawData_PerfDisk_PhysicalDisk WHERE Name='_Total'
I can now collect statistics on 2000 & 2003 systems, but the numbers are HUGE. I realize that the Raw data keeps adding up over time. How can i make this data useful in APM?
Thanks!
