    Hello,

    I have two Windows Server 2008 Cluster environment with two nodes each and the %Processor Time% view in SCOM is always flat..

    Any idea?

    It is not that it does not display as I don not get the message "No Performance counter is selected" but it remains flat...

    What did I miss for this type of server?

    Target: Microsoft Windows Serverr 2008 Enterprise

    Object: Processor

    Counter% Processot Time

    Instance: Total

    Thanks,
    Dom

    Hello Graham,

    This rule is enabled and the counter is displayed but always flat at 0???

    for the two nodes of the clusters... these are exchange servers with about 4500 mailbox on each so there should be activities...

    Thanks,

    Dom

    Hello,

    I noticed this error in the Operations manager event log:

    Log Name:      Operations Manager
Source:        Health Service Modules
Date:          3/18/2013 9:43:57 AM
Event ID:      10102
Task Category: None
Level:         Warning
Keywords:      Classic
User:          N/A
Computer:      BOPMB8SCCA.ad
    Description:
In PerfDataSource, could not resolve counter Processor Information, % Processor Time, _Total. Module will not be unloaded. 

One or more workflows were affected by this.  

Workflow name: Microsoft.Windows.Server.2008.OperatingSystem.TotalPercentProcessorTime.Collection

Instance ID: {D93FDC24-F5D9-FEBE-B080-6F9F9D0F4412}

    Could it be a reason something did not get picked? the counter is showing but always 0?

    Thanks,

    Hi Dom

    As per my previous response - this is a known issue with the Management Pack. The Processor Information counter does not exist on Windows Server 2008 (only on 2008 R2).

    Kevin Holman also explains more here:

    For Windows Server 2008, you can create the performance collection rule:

    Hello Graham,

    I have this rule enabled but apparently it does not show on the server as available rule...

    Windows Computer:

    Server A (Windows Server 2008) > Performance View I don't see my rule available yet ...

    Still watching after 6 hours aparently I got it

    Thanks,

    DOm
