hello

windows has deprecated snmp since windows 2008/12 and there is a minimal support of it, with snmpv2, and when I say “minimum” it is really basic (cpu usage, memory, process and NIC)

(they invented Wmi and stop developping snmp support)

also, there is no snmp v3 support in windows server.

 

try either using nsclient (also deprecated but mostly functionnal), you can get it on centreon website with the correct plugin

or if you are more adventurous you can try the WSMan  plugin from centreon

 

on your screenshot, I don’t really know what is happening, probably some parameter missing in the command/macro for your cpu check, but without knowing what was your check and what command line was used (with the parameters) it is hard to help you

but as I stated above : snmpv3 is not supported in windows, so it may be useless to try to debug the centreon side of the check

(I personnally use snmp on windows for the NICs but is Snmp v2c only, as the perfdata are nicer, but I’m still looking for a way to remove it completely; I’m waiting for centreon to release their future new windows agent)
