Need windows template for Windows server 2008/2012

[iftitutul]

Hi I am using zabbix 3.4 and monitoring lots of windows server. I have only windows template and windows 2008 server template by default. Will I use template os windows in windows server 2008/2012? because I need to check cpu,memory and file systems.
Also is template windows server 2008 suits for windows server 2012?
Any recommend pls.

Please have a look at here: https://github.com/monitoringartist/...ommunity-repos

And by the way, which roles are those Windows nodes fulfilling? If they only run, for example, IIS you could download the IIS templates. And yes you are able to use the 2008 templates for monitoring 2012 servers.

At first, I am going through only infrastructure levels, only OS level (cpu, memory, disk space) . Any customize template for windows OS and server 2008/2012.
By the way, I am not find any good resource on this link. Any suggestions please

Maybe I do not understand your question but, the default Template OS Windows should be enough when you only want to see CPU, Memory and disk space.

It even has discovery rules to automatically look for your drives and network interfaces.

Yes. I have changed as per my requirements. Is there any good template for windows server monitoring?

What is the general difference then? Windows system is Windows system in any case, the main difference is that Windows Server is able to provide the additional services like Active Directory, DNS etc.. So if you need the general overview of the server like CPU, RAM, Filesystems, Processes then default Zabbix Agent template for OS Windows should suit your needs.

You can modify the Default template(clone and correct it then). Not seeing any problems here. Otherwise: try to search https://share.zabbix.com or monitoring artists github.

Isn´t true.

Here we has several versions of windows instaled in portuguese and in english. The same template don´t work in all servers !

Use numerical keys to amenize this problem !

But in all Linux, many relases of RH, Debian, Ubuntu, Suse, and others, the same template works !
