Enabling Collection of WBEM Fetchlet Based Metrics

To enable the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) Fetchlet based collections for the host target, configure the WBEM Host Username and WBEM Host Password properties.

Note: Host targets running with Linux and Windows operating systems do not, by default, have WBEM Fetchlet based metric collections. This is due to the fact that these operating systems, by default, do not run a DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force) WBEM-compliant Common Information Model (CIM) Object Manager. If the systems have been configured to run a WBEM-compliant CIM Object Manager, then WBEM Fetchlet based metric collections will be possible.

To configure the collections on systems with WBEM compliant CIM Object Managers, use the following steps:

  1. Navigate to the home page of the specific host.
  2. From the Host menu, select Target Setup, then Monitoring Configuration.
  3. Set the Username and Password values.
