OS is windows server 2012 R2.

Running below sql query returns sampled value as 0-

select Path,
ObjectName,
CounterName,
InstanceName,
SampleValue,
TimeSampled
from PerformanceDataAllView pdv with (NOLOCK)
inner join PerformanceCounterView pcv on pdv.performancesourceinternalid = pcv.performancesourceinternalid
inner join BaseManagedEntity bme on pcv.ManagedEntityId = bme.BaseManagedEntityId
where path is NULL
AND
--objectname = 'Per Processor Network Interface Card Activity'
--AND
countername = 'Received Packets/sec'
AND InstanceName like '%Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter%'
order by timesampled DESC

    Hi,

    how is your rule configured exactly? What target did you chose and what overrides are in place?

    Thanks and Regards,

    @swati06 Based on my research, it seems the Performance counter is monitored from the operating system. Would you mind to change the target to Windows server Operating System to see if the result will be different?
