Telegraf agent monitoring Windows Services on a Bare Metal (Endpoint) server

[VRMware]

I am currently setting up Windows Services monitoring on vms and physical servers with Telegraf agent within Aria Operations. I have manually configured the Windows Services to be monitored on a source vm server. I read this configuration via API and successfully update the other Windows vm servers via API. I also have a few physical Windows servers whose services I want to monitor with Telegraf. The Telegraf agent has been successfully installed on all physical Windows servers. When I try to update the Telegraf agent via API with the same configuration I use for the Windows vms, I get the following error message:

{
  "message": "Configuration not valid.",
  "moreInformation": [
    {
      "name": "errorMessage",
      "value": "Linux VMs support processavailability service"
    }
  ],
  "httpStatusCode": 422,
  "apiErrorCode": 1502
}

What I don't understand is this message, given that it concerns a Windows server:  "Linux VMs support processavailability service". Does anyone have any idea what's going wrong?

Even when I manually configure a Windows Service on a physical Window server in the Telegraf Agent (Applications) and read it out with the API, I do not see this correctly configured and functioning service reflected in the JSON output.

Does anyone have any idea how to solve this?

This is solved in ops 8.18.5

After installing Aria Operations 8.18.5, the problem is still not resolved.

Broadcom Support confirmed that the fix was not included in the 8.18.5 release, they are still working on it and this will be fixed in the next release.

Aria Operations 8.18 Hotfix9 includes a new version of the Telegraf Agent. Version 8.18.5.723. I will test this asap.

I have tested succesfully GET and POST API calls on a Bare Metal Windows (Endpoint) server. So this seems to be resolved in Telegraf agent version 8.18.5.723 that is part of Aria Operations 8.18 Hotfix 9 (8.18.5 25072623).
