Hello,
I have the following case.
I am useing Observium to monitor a few Windows Server 200 R2 VM's.
Some machines can't get there disks polled because of a BDEdrive partition (because of this partition the poll times go up to 60 sec/per machine as wel). As workarround i have disabled the storage poller module (the polling time goes down to 3 sec), and enabled the WMI poller module. The wmi poller module works nice. Polling of the Disk partition works as wel! There is only one problem, the graphs/logs for diskspace dont get written to the rdd files when using the wmi disk poller module.
Is this a know problem and if so, is there a fix or setting that I could use?
Kind regards, Jeremy

You want to be able to disable HOST-RESOURCES-MIB storage module, but this isn't possible at the moment.

Hello Adam,
Thank you for your reply,
Kind regards, Jeremy

I'm not sure if that is enough - I think the WMI part needs to be re-done a bit to fit in better. Because I think it only updates description and value now, but not the rrds (as stated above), it's leaving that to the hr-mib code right now.

Ahh. I had assumed it was similar to the agent sensors stuff.
Oh well!

Yeah, that's the part that would need to be re-done. To be like agent and ipmi - fetch data first, use later. :-)

Hello,
Coming back on this topic,
If I use the WMI Stroge poller instead of the normal storage poller new RRD files are made:
233120 May 23 11:40 storage-host-resources-mib-B___Label_DB08-Backup__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 11:40 storage-host-resources-mib-C___Label_OSDisk__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 11:40 storage-host-resources-mib-D___Label_Swap__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 11:40 storage-host-resources-mib-E___Label_DB08-e__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 13:15 storage-hrstorage-B___Label_DB08-Backup__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 13:15 storage-hrstorage-C___Label_OSDisk__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 13:15 storage-hrstorage-D___Label_Swap__Serial_Number_.rrd 233120 May 23 13:15 storage-hrstorage-E___Label_DB08-e__Serial_Number_.rrd
But in Observium when chekking the RDD tool, it is stil opening the old rrd's.

Is that what you mean Adam when you say that I must disable the host-resources-mib?
Kind Regards, Jeremy
