Two things

1. How do I use RMA to read available RAM on a system ? I am using the Perfmon option for machines on my network but that needs user rights so for machines outside it does not work. I was supprised to see that there is not a explicit 'available memory' test, but hey.

2. Is there an easy way of getting an average CPU usage over the last 5 minutes and using that to alert on ? For example

100% for 5 seconds is fine
100% for 60 seconds is not so good
100% for 10 minutes is bad

Additionaly

80% for the last 3 hours is bad

and even 40% for the last day is not that good


Hope you see where I am going with this.

Your system needs administrator's access to remote system only if you use "Select a counter" dialog. If you select agent and type counter name manually (e.g. \Memory\Available MBytes), test wil be performed by RMA without problem.

As I know Windows does not provide any counter that can show average CPU Usage over the last N min. It means you need to use standard CPU Usage test (that checks real time CPU usage) and modify action profile to start alert when N consecutive Bad results occur.
E.g. check CPU load every 1 min and execute alert action when 10 tests in a row fail.
