Windows issues

Defect ID

Known Issue

FDOC-4057

Collecting Logical Disk metrics from Windows Vista®, Windows Server® 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2 may be affected by a Microsoft® defect.
Workaround: A hotfix is available on Microsoft's Web site, at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/961435/en-us.

FDOC-2771

In order for the WindowsAgent to have access to query WMI to collect OS and database metrics, the agent must have permission to access both DCOM and WMI.
On Windows Server® 2003, only users in the Local Administrators group on the monitored host have the required permissions.

IC-2856

Some Windows® processes report very large memory for virtual bytes performance counters (these are products marked with the large address space awareness flag, including Chkdsk.exe and Lsass.exe). The value is reported as such by Microsoft Windows on some 64-bit systems. This is a known 3rd-party issue; the values reported are as expected.

IC-594

Some base values are not updated when using the Win32_PerfRawData_PerfDisk_LogicalDisk WMI class to calculate performance data in Windows Vista® or in Windows Server® 2008, because this class does not contain the PercentDiskTime_Base metric.

Workaround: A hotfix is available on Microsoft® Web site, at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/961435/en-us.

    def type = topSrv.getType("PowerVMVirtualManager");
    def stringType = type.getProperty("longName").getValueType();

    if(type.findProperty("host")){
       def shell = topSrv.beginUpdate(type);
       shell.addProperty("hmcName", null, stringType, false, false, false, "default", null);
       topSrv.endUpdate(shell);  

       def objects = #!PowerVMVirtualManager#.topologyObjects;  
       if(objects){
          def shells = []
          objects.each{object ->
             def objShell = topSrv.getObjectShell(object);
             objShell.set("hmcName", object.host.name);

             topSrv.mergeData(objShell);
          }
       }

       def tmp = topSrv.beginUpdate(type);
       tmp.removeProperty("hmcName");
       topSrv.endUpdate(tmp);

       topSrv.addProperty(type , "hmcName", null, "String", false, false, true, null);

       tmp = topSrv.beginUpdate(type);
       tmp.removeProperty("host");
