How to monitor Work Item Shortages for WMI Win32_PerfRawData_PerfNet_ServerWorkQueues ?

With IPHost Network Monitor you can run WMI Work Item Shortages monitoring of various devices in your network.

To create a WMI monitor for Work Item Shortages, provide host name (it must be a Windows host) and specify custom WQL query:

SELECT WorkItemShortages FROM Win32_PerfRawData_PerfNet_ServerWorkQueues

Every request from a client is represented in the server as a 'work item,' and the server maintains a pool of available work items per CPU to speed processing. A sustained value greater than zero indicates the need to increase the 'MaxWorkItems' registry value for the Server service. This value will always be 0 in the Blocking Queue instance.

The Server Work Queues performance object consists of counters that monitor the length of the queues and objects in the queues.
