Using prometheus exporter on Windows Server / Hyper-V Server

 

In our case, many of the hosts are Windows instances. So, in this case, we have decided to use the wmi_exporter, written by Martin Lindhe, which is also Open Source.

The setup it’s quite easy:

  1. We download the latest release of the wmi_exporter, we install it on the host machine, and it will install a Windows Service, which will use the WMI API to get all the information about the instance. On the Services list, we can see it running. blobid1.png
  2. After that, we can check the metrics by using the browser in http://localhost:9182/metrics, directly. We can also here check if all the metrics we need are enabled. Otherwise we might need to enable additional collectors on the wmi_exporter (either by passing parameters while installing it, or by changing the configs once it was installed).

 

Example:

Server:

msiexec /i wmi_exporter-0.7.0-amd64.msi ENABLED_COLLECTORS=os,cpu,cs,logical_disk,memory,net,system

 

Hyper-V:

msiexec /i wmi_exporter-0.7.0-amd64.msi ENABLED_COLLECTORS=os,cpu,cs,hyperv,logical_disk,memory,net,service,system
.\wmi_exporter.exe --collectors.enabled "os,cpu,cs,hyperv,logical_disk,memory,net,service,system"

AD:

msiexec /i wmi_exporter-0.7.0-amd64.msi ENABLED_COLLECTORS=os,cpu,cs,ad,logical_disk,memory,net,system

 

1C Server:

msiexec /i wmi_exporter-0.7.0-amd64.msi ENABLED_COLLECTORS=os,cpu,cs,logical_disk,memory,net,system,mssql
