Metric not posted
This plugin retrieves information from Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfNet_Server class of WMI, Windows Management Instrumentation. If the metric is not posted, run the following command at the command prompt to isolate the cause.
WMIC PATH Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfNet_Server GET ServerSessions /FORMAT:CSV
If it works properly, the output result is as follows.

If an error occurs, a problem on the WMI side is suspected. Check the Event Viewer for WMI-related errors.
