The way 1.1 works anyway is you can model systems with "none" which is
just a ping test, but if they are part of the Windows group they will
get WMI data also (though it takes a day to show up due to the lag with
ZenWin re modeling in the older version). You cannot (in 1.1.1) get
performance data from WMI, just windows services as far as I can tell. I
don't know if they've extended the WMI in this version, my understanding
was this was just a port of ZenWin to Linux.

Thanks for the info! That's useful to know when I am creating new
organizaters, but what's killing me is that I can't auto-discover
windows systems that aren't running SNMP. I really want to monitor my
workstations, but it looks like if I want to do that, I need to add each
one by hand. That's not an exciting prospect!
Precisely the situation I'm in.
Hal, did mean that you've found how to enable the portscan plugin for
modeling? Or are you saying that you've gotten portscan the work for
auto-discovery? If you figured out how to do it for auto-discovery, let
me know! That might help - if I can at least get my workstations on the
device list, I can mass-move them to an organizer where WMI is enabled.
So far just modeling. I'm still hopeful on auto-discovery despite the
2.0 manual clearly stating only SNMP. There's so many inaccuracies in
the manual (no offense zenoss guys!) that I'm not sure that what I'm
reading is right or not.
