Nsclient Error Pdh.dll
[Download message RAW] I have the same issues. It's interesting that you mention compaq and dual proc. All we have is compaq and they are all two proc or better. Thanks for the update. -----Original Message----- From: Eric Platt [mailto:EPlatt@gaic.com] Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 5:15 PM To: netsaintplug-help@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: karima@wanadoo.fr Subject: [Netsaintplug-help] Re: NSClient Error: PDH.dll Collect CPU (karima) Hi Karima, I have run into that exact same problem too. On some servers a simple reboot will clear it out. On others it will just continue to reoccur either immediately or after a few days. I have gone through a significant amount of troubleshooting work (non-programming) and have not come up with a resolution. I've tried different versions of NSClient, different Service Pack levels, different versions of PDH.dll. I dumpster dived into all of the newsgroups, search engines & even M$'s tech site without success. I eventually ended up e-mailing Yves back in mid September. Here was my reply: "Hi, Known issue. No workaround for now except that the latest version has a feature to avoid the error to be written in the event log. Should come up in the next few days... cheers, Yves" I assume Yves actually has a life outside of NSClient so for right now I am in the same situation of cooling my heels until NSClientEVL comes out. In the mean time I have disabled the NSClient service on the servers that have this problem. I am not completely sure what the common denominator is with the system that have errors. It seems that systems with dual processors are more prone to have this affliction. We also have a fair number of compaq servers.

that this only seems to be happening with Virtual Servers, both VMWare & Microsoft HyperV. The Nagios errors are: CPU Load: NSClient - ERROR: Could not get data for 5 please check log for details Memory Usage: NSClient - ERROR: Failed to get PDH value. I've tried the lodctr /R trick. I tried taking a backup from a working host and restoring it to the problem host, but to no avail. I verified perfmon that all counters were working http://marc.info/?l=netsaintplug-help&m=103772051026784&w=2 correctly... Has anyone noticed / documented issues like this occurring on virtual hosts? Any ideas on how to get these checks to work with virtual hosts? MickeM 2013-03-19 11:23:33 UTC #2 I have heard it mentioned before and vaugley recalled there was something that could be done. '''UPDATE''' removed silly question you already answered please check the http://forums.nsclient.org/t/problems-with-virtual-hosts/3240 debug log during startup and let me know if there are any errors related to PDH. might also want to try the validate command:{{{nscp sys --validateListing configured counters cpu = \238(_total)\6: ok-rate(0)memory commit bytes = \4\26: ok(6.78487e+009)memory commit limit = \4\30: ok(3.4113e+010)uptime = \2\674: ok(9769.03) Listed 4 of 4 counters.}}} // Michael Medin legacyforumuser 2013-03-19 16:17:50 UTC #3 c:\Program Files\NSClient++>nscp sys --validate Listing configured counters cpu = \238(_total)\6: ok-rate(0), memory commit bytes = \4\26: ok(6.30773e+009) memory commit limit = \4\30: ok(9.09042e+009) uptime = \2\674: ok(2.29855e+006) Listed 4 of 4 counters.
