WMI Sensors monitoring
- by DmitrySemenov
Monitoring tool Paessler stopped to monitor WMI Windows Sensors
Paessler is Updated to version 12.4.5.3165. (10/30/2012 1:44:11 PM)
Paessler windows sensors (against windows server 2008 R2 web edition) stopped to work (no changes have been made on server that we monitor)
with the message
Connection could not be established (80070005: Access is denied - Host: 192.168.2.10, User: Administrator, Password: **, Domain: ntlmdomain:) (code: PE015)
However if I go to Virtual machine used to run Paessler and the following cscript runs successfully:
strComputer = "192.168.2.10"
Set objSWbemLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
Set objSWbemServices = objSWbemLocator.ConnectServer _
(strComputer, "root\cimv2", _
"Administrator", "pass")
Set colProcessList = objSWbemServices.ExecQuery( _
"Select * From Win32_Processor")
For Each objProcess in colProcessList
Wscript.Echo "Process Name: " & objProcess.Name
Next
I'm getting output
C:\>cscript test.vbs
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.8

So WMI works
a. I gave Administrator credentials for Device to monitor in Paessler setting, the same I used in the script above
b. I restarted windows server (broken sensors) - but this didn't help
c. I restarted Paessler probe service - no effect
any ideas?
