Introduction

Windows servers can be monitored by nGeniusPULSE using either WinRM or SNMP.  Both need configuration on Windows servers to be ready for data collection.  WinRM is recommended because the Windows SNMP Agent (native SNMP or 3rd party SNMP) has insufficient support for health metrics.

 

Solution

Please refer to the following document to configure WinRM on Windows Servers:

https://downloads.netscout.com/nGeniusPulse/v33/ConfigureWinRMonWindowsServers.html

The remarks may be usefull:

Configure Windows server using Group Policy (Basic Authentication, no Encryption) in Domain

> GPO objects must be linked to one or more Organizational Units but not enforced.

Configure WinRM on a Windows server in Workgroup (Basic Authentication, no Encryption)

> If you want to run winrm command from PowerShell you need to put configuration settings inside single quotes. 

Example:

PS> winrm set winrm/config/client/auth '@{Basic="true"}'
