WMI Custom Sensor - No data since startup

Votes:

0

Dear PRTG Community

We have copied the following WMI Script to the folder of PRTG (Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\Custom Sensors\WMI WQL scripts\):

select name, Orchestrationstatus from MSBTS_Orchestration where name ='Orchestrationname.BizTalk.ITOB.Notification.Main'

We want now to Monitor the Biztalk on a remote machine. We add a custom WMI String Sensor with the namespace "Root\MicrosoftBizTalkServer" and the value "4" that to be returend as return value.

We have full admin rights, dcom configured as well, checked the Port 135, and firewall ist don't enabled. but the sensor still not working:

No data since startup

Can anyone help us please?

Hello,

thank you very much for your KB-Post. Please bear in mind that the WMI Custom Sensors can only read one field. Please reduce the WQL-Query to only select one column / field. Either 'name' or 'Orchestrationstatus'.

best regards.

Hello Torsten Our Query give us only one field/result back. We know, that PRTG only can read 1 field. so this is not the problem :-C

The query definitely selects two columns / fields. Please reduce this to one. Please do try this first.
