Just that.

As the subject says, many windows servers are now reporting (and graphing) 100% use of memory or pagefile, but that is not correct.

Any ideas

I created a new server, installed zenoss 5.0.7 anew, and imported my devices from mydevicelist.txt

Still, some of them were reporting incorrectly that memory threshold was exceeded.

I checked more thoroughly, and noticed that the "current value" was in many cases GREATER than the total RAM present.

I then checked, and saw that zenoss is, for some reason, using RAM + PAGEFILE for some calculations (for instance, for memory being actually used), but then, it uses only RAM * 0.9 for calculating the threshold. This causes alarms to be fired, of course.
