I've decided to watch our Exchange Servers by specifically adding the Free System Page Table Entries counter into APM. I've got quite a bunch of experience acting as a script kiddie with WMI Scripting and VBScript, so I went that route for pulling the data.
I'm trying to change the warning and critical thresholds though. This statistic is supposed to be large (big is good here). How do I change the warning and critical thresholds (or my code if absolutly necessary) to handle alerting on a statistic as it falls and not increases?
My code follows:
===================================================
strComputer = wscript.arguments(0)
strUser = wscript.arguments(1)
strPassword = wscript.arguments(2)
Set objSWbemLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
Set objWMIService = objSWbemLocator.ConnectServer (strComputer, "root\cimv2", strUser, strPassword)
Set colFSTE = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Memory")
For Each objFSTE in colFSTE
intValue = objFSTE.FreeSystemPageTableEntries
WScript.Echo "Statistic:" & intValue
Next
===================================================
