Network Device Discovery for 2008 R2 Servers not working

[Simon_AU]

I have several "Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2" servers which arent getting their network adaptor detected

I have a discovery rule which is meant to detect it and implement montioring on those NIC's but nothing is showing up:


wmi.getall[root\cimv2,"select Name,Description,NetConnectionID,Speed,AdapterType Id,NetConnectionStatus from win32_networkadapter where PhysicalAdapter=True and NetConnectionStatus>0"]



when i run a WMIC command on the machine i get the results


I have tried various default zabbix windows scripts, same result

Agent Version: 6.4.6
Server Version 6.4.6

I manually created the "Items" in a separate template for a server with the issue and is getting data

Original Template:


Custom Items:



Live Data:


* some of the data isnt showing as the primary template includes inheirted items, main focus right now are bits Sent/Received

So as the template shows the data is there, issue appears to be with discovery for nics "Microsoft Virtual Machine Bus Network Adapter"

well no luck with discovery...
decided to manually add below to agent conf files and setup an "item" in zabbix to get the data, seems to be working

PerfCounter=nic0_in,"\Network Interface(Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter)\Bytes Received/sec",60
PerfCounter=nic0_out,"\Network Interface(Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter)\Bytes Sent/sec",60
