RPC server unavailable

Votes:

0

We have a random problem with our monitoring.

Clients that we have setup in PRTG will return the RPC server unavailable error for all the sensors.

This happens in a random base and it can be with 2 or 3 clients at the same time or more. It can also be working fine without RPC errors for a couple of days in a row.

I would like to know if anyone else have this issue and what could be the possible solutions.

Thanks

I actually have this issue all the time on different OS. 2008R2, 2008, 2012, 2012R2, 2003. I have WMI sensors that will work fine for a week or so then stop then a few months later start working again. I have tried creating a local admin account and using it to monitor which also does not work. I think it is a microsoft issue but it would be nice if there was a way to do more windows based monitoring with snmp, example logged in users and usernames.
