Checkmk Werk 14356: Windows agent reports Virtual Size correctly

ID: 14356 Title: Windows agent reports Virtual Size correctly Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.2.0i1 Previously, to report the Virtual size of a process Windows agent used metric 'VirtualSize' from WMI counter 'Win32_Process'. Unfortunately, in Windows this metric means not the Virtual size of process but the size of the process virtual address space, usually 2TB for 32-bit application. As a result monitoring information related to the process Virtial size was useless. Since this release, Windows agent uses 'Commit Charge' Win32 metric to correctly report the Virtual size of a process, thus solving the problem. 'Commit Charge' is the total amount of virtual memory of a process that must be backed by either physical memory or the page file.
