Feature Request: support pulling metrics from CIM/WMI

[lf-]

I have an HP server and I installed the "HPE Insight Management WBEM Providers for Windows Server x64 Editions", which gives all sorts of fun things such as HP_NumericSensor (temp reading) and HP_PowerMeter. Naturally, I'd love to ship these metrics to InfluxDB to make pretty graphs.

Unfortunately, CIM stuff doesn't seem to be supported.

I suppose that theese metrics is not published as performance monitor data. In that case a special reader for theese data needs to be developed.

I will mark it as an enhancement.

Any chance this is something you may look to work on?

It would be cool if someone wanted to help with this. Unfortunately I will not be able to do this myself right now.
