All,
Got a strange one on a Win2k3SP1/Exch2k3SP2 server. All of the Performance
Monitor/WMI counters appear to have lost their labels.
If I fire up PerfMon, I get nothing on the initial graph.
If I try to add a counter, I get a choice of Performance Objects, each of
which contains a number of individual counters... but they're all only
identified by numbers. I can't actually add any of them to the graph. I can
add counters from other machines to PerfMon on this machine fine, though.
Admin Tools/Computer Management/Services & Apps/WMI Control/Properties
gives me the correct details.
I've tried running Exctrlst.exe from the Support tools, and it correctly
lists a whole bunch of extended counters.
Any thoughts? Most apps and services on the server appears to be running
correctly, with the exception of a monitoring client (NC_Net, for Nagios),
which fails because it can't read the WMI counters. Nothing was changed on
the server before the corruption of WMI, with the possible exception of
WindowsUpdate.
