I have CPU utilization on my Additional Polling engines(even primary at times) with jobengineworker2 processes being the top contributor(s). In SolarWinds.APM.Probes_[PID].log, I see the below entries fill up:
2018-03-27 08:34:49,574 [317] [A(null)] [C(null)] WARN SolarWinds.APM.Common.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounters - Initialization of performance counters SolarWinds: SAM Jobs(_Total) failed

I have rebuilt the performance counters on affected polling engines per Performance counters are not working or missing in PerfMon - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support , but that did not help. I do not have many unknowns in my environment too, if that is a suspicion.
If anyone else has seen this too, please help.
