Hi Folks,

What kind of roles are required for the remote monitoring user?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Last week i had similar questions. I just passed this help (https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/wmi-extension#monitored-host) to windows admin, and i was able to connect Remote Windows Host extension to remote host. Remote WMI is a little bit tricky.
What i'm not happy though is naming of extension's metrics and content of screens. Base Host screen doesn't include capacity of logical disks (just disk writes/s), metric that contain logical disk capacity data is named "Free disk memory".

Ahoj @rastislav_danis,

Finally I have also found this documentation. Thanks for the additional information about the extension "features". 😉

Best regards,
