AltocumulusHealth monitor for windows servers
I'm looking to implement a health monitor for a variety of different types of window servers. It would be ideal to check for a specific service that is running or for the existence of a file. It looks like SMB monitors work again after not working for a few versions? I see WMI as a monitor too but I'm not really clear on how to use it.

Hello b,
I am not personally familiar with either monitor but I was able to find an article regarding the WMI monitor. Hopefully this will help explain how the monitor works.

Let me know if you have questions and I'll try to answer them if I can.

b_1I couldn't figure out where those DLL files would come from but I ended up implementing this and it works great.
