I'll probably get ridiculed but I recently discovered the joys of
SNMP and I found myself thinking wouldn't it be cool if I could use
SNMP to keep track Declude performance?
You know: queue sizes, number of threads, memory used, all that.
I second Matt's recommendation of IPCheck for things like file counts,
service uptime, etc.
For number of threads, memory used and other process information, you
can do that by using Microsoft's perfmib.dll, which is essentially an
SNMP proxy for the Performance Counter functionality. Any element you
can create a Counter Log for in Perfmon (such as Thread Count for an
EXE image) you should be able to also query using SNMP.
I'm not sure if perfmib is supported anymore, but it does work.
Alternately, you can try SNMP Informant or other third-party bridges
between PerfMon and SNMP.
FTR, I use OpManager for agentless SNMP-based monitoring, while
IPCheck is better for its proprietary -- and I find more reliable --
suite of both agent-driven and agentless monitors. YMMV.
