Agentless monitoring in SCOM

Hello Team, I have a number of servers in Agentless monitoring pane which is in not monitored state. However, i have a few servers in monitored state also. Any directions on how I can troubleshoot ? I do not see any consistency in the behavior like ping, proxy agent (healthy on the console) Any help is much appreciated
Proxy has been enabled as a default setting.
Management servers have been checked to act as a proxy

@peewhy, For the not monitored agentless servers, please check if the related management packs are imported in SCOM and if the MPs work in agentless mode. For example, if the agentless server is with Windows server 2016 version, to monitor it , we need to import Windows server 2016 MP to monitor them.

Also check if the agentless-managed computer and its proxy communicate is through a firewall. If yes, this will not work. We can see more details in the following link:

Hope it can help.

Two things :
- Are you sure all the "agent less managed" objects are actual servers? You'll see various stuff there, for example cluster instances which will always be "not monitored" regardless of what MP is imported (unless you create a custom one which would target them)
- Rules and monitors for agent less monitoring mist be explicitly authored in management packs. Most MPs don't have such rules and monitors and will simply not work in agent less mode
