Metrics that do not have generally accepted thresholds for alarms are configured as trend alarms. The significance of trends is dependent on the environment and default settings may generate many meaningless alarms in a busy environment, while failing to fire at all in a smaller environment. Workaround: We recommended that the administrator allow the agent to collect values over an adequate period of time to observe normal performance and then adjust trend alarms to fire at suitable thresholds. |
n/a | In some circumstances, DCs on Windows Server 2012/2012 R2 systems may experience high CPU usage when monitored by the Active Directory agent. This issue only appears when using WinRM connections. Workaround: Using WMI/DCOM connections prevents this issue. For details, see Troubleshooting. |
