SCOM Windows 10 workstations not able to get memory usage in reports?

Couldnt find an answer to this. I have a need to create a report basically exactly like the "Windows Server Operating system reports" Performance by system report, but for our windows 10 clients. When i try and run the report against our windows 10 machines, nothing comes up. (Im assuming because these are workstation OS's and not Server OS).

Does anyone know of how i can get this report to run against client information and not just Server? Or else just give me an average Memory/CPU utilization across the Organization? This is a newer install of SCOM 2019 installed a couple weeks ago and agents have been deployed and showing healthy. not sure If i need to tell the agents to monitor memory and cpu or what.
Thank you
Tom

@TomFerlaak-1245, We can check if the following rules are enabled. Try to enable them and see if we can get any data.

To enable the rules, we can use overrides. Here is a link for the reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/manage-enable-or-disable-rule-monitor?view=sc-om-2019#to-enable-or-disable-a-monitor-or-rule-using-overrides

Hope it can help.

That did get my on the right track. However, when trying to enable those the enable was greyed out. so i had to create a override to enable it for all windows computers. is this typical for SCOM? I read it was because the management pack is sealed. not sure how true this is or if i missed something.

Yes, your understanding is correct. In SCOM, some management packs ship with some rules or monitors disabled. To enable it, we can use overrides. Here is a link for the reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/manage-enable-or-disable-rule-monitor?view=sc-om-2019#to-enable-or-disable-a-monitor-or-rule-using-overrides

Hope it can help.

  1. By default, Windows 10 client MP will not collect Memory/CPU utilization of windows 10 agent. You should manually enable it by using override

  2. Moreover, windows 10 performance report can be view by using Microsoft Generic Report Library --> Performance

  3. Add object --> select windows 10 object

  4. Add performance rule e.g. Memory Availability Megabytes
