Windows integration
The Windows integration monitors the health and performance of Windows servers.
Metrics collected
The integration collects host and service metrics with these Windows exporter collectors:
- CPU: Processor time, queue length
- Memory: Available, committed, page faults
- Disk: Read/write bytes, queue depth
- Network: Bytes sent/received, errors
- Services: State, start mode
