I decided to try out 4.3 beta 2 along with the central mode for 'bbwin' clients. Unfortunately when doing this I discovered many of the windows boxes were alerting red because the load was higher than my defaults of 4 and 8...
Now I've upped these to 95 and 100 to represent the percentage the windows boxes are using but this means the unix boxes could be broken and I wont know without setting individual alert thresholds.
Is there a way to change the windows 'load' to be 'load percentage' or something so each type of box is using a different monitoring type? I know there were discussions about having UNIX boxes sending in a load percentage but that this was a difficult thing to achieve correctly.
Our hostnames are normally dictated by service rather than platform unfortunately so I can't always just put so8/w2k etc pcre expressions in the thresholds to differentiate OS type.
