You know, I think it has to have something to do with the environment. I haven't had much/many of the issues posted. So far, I've dealt with transient alerts by incrementing the count to >1 for an alert to trigger. This doesn't cause any major delay for us, but totally got rid of the "false alerts", which seem to actually have been indicative of transient network errors.

WMI monitoring has been working fine for me since 1.1.1 once I figured out how to set it up. In fact, the only current bug I have is with subclasses of /Server/Windows (which I've reported), and I can work around that by putting devices in /Server/Windows if I need service alerting.

One thing I'm not doing is using the Virtual Machine provided. I think it's not intended for production use, and several reported issues seem to occur in the VM, but not on CENTOS5, for instance.

WMI errors are not the only problems I get with zenoss. I also get many false

wrong performance for accesspoint interfaces).
I set up nagios a few days ago, and everything works fine with it (currently 
monitoring with icmp, snmp and some services (http, smtp, pop3). It's more work 
to include all hosts, but it runs fine.
