Default versions of these properties are installed with Hyper-V Monitoring in Foglight® Evolve Cloud. However, you can edit the default shareable and agent properties, configure agent properties that apply only to a specific agent instance, and create edited clones of shareable properties that are used by a subset of agents of a certain type.
There are two ways to access the Hyper-V, SCVMM, and SOFS Agent properties:
• |
On the Hyper-V Environment dashboard, on the Administration tab, select an agent instance and click Edit Properties (see Configuring monitoring agents ). |
NOTE: This method only allows you to edit the Configuration properties, but not the Data Collection Scheduler properties. |
• |
On the Agent Status dashboard, select an agent instance and click Edit Properties. This method provides access to the full set of Hyper-V Agent properties, and is described in this topic. |
For more information about working with agent properties, see the Administration and Configuration Help.

To monitor a desired Hyper-V® server, ensure the Hyper-V Agent’s Configuration properties are set up as required.
1 |
Locate the Hyper-V Agent’s Configuration properties. |
2 |
Set the Configuration properties as follows: |
• |
Host Name: Type the fully qualified host name of the machine on which the monitored Hyper-V Server is running. |
• |
Collect CPU metrics: Select this option if you want to collect CPU metrics from the monitored Hyper-V environment. |
