CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURING WINDOWS MANAGEMENT 65
5. Choose the desired operation, for example, change license type to Promoted Workstation.
6. Click submit.
To generate an inventory report of the current list of devices, select an output format, for example,
HTML or XML, and click generate report. XML can be used in Crystal Reports.
Note: If an Infrastructure device, for example, Cisco router, is listed as Unknown, it means that
the default sysName value of “Unknown” has not been changed to something more meaningful.
This can be corrected by either clicking the ‘Change Device Label’ link on the device page or the
administrator of the “Unknown” device can assign a meaningful name to the sysName value.
Configure Windows Performance Thresholds
This option allows you to configure the performance thresholds associated with Windows
performance metrics for workstations and servers. All currently thresholded metrics are reflected
and values, re-arm values, and triggers are exposed for customization in your environment.
1. Click on the Admin
tab in the top navigation bar.
2. Click Windows Management Configuration.
3. Click Configure Windows Performance Thresholds.
Figure 80 Configuring Windows Performance Thresholds
Listed above are the current values at which Windows performance metrics are considered
problematic which generates events. You have complete control over these thresholds, including
their value, their re-arm values, and the number of consecutive data samples, for example,
"triggers", which must be exceeded before an event is generated.
If the threshold is of type High, the Value must be greater than or equal to the Re-arm. If the
threshold is of type Low, the Value must be less than or equal to the Re-arm.
Click save thresholds at the bottom of the page when you are finished editing the thresholds.
Changing any of the thresholds will require a restart of the CC-NOC. Clicking reset will set the
thresholds back to their values since the last edit.
Configure WINS Server or LMHOSTS File on 2500M
In a distributed environment, you can edit the lmhosts file or WINS settings for the CC-NOC
2500M appliance.
Edit WINS Settings
You can also specify a WINS server for the selected appliance if you are using the internal proxy
on the CC-NOC 2500M appliance and you need to collect WMI data off a few Windows servers
that exist in another network. A WINS server is used to resolve Windows NetBIOS names to IP
address.
