This plugin won't work if you want to monitor important system services, such as MSDTC (Distributed Transaction Coordinator) which is a vital service to SQL Server. The issue lies in the Service-class from Sigar, which requests full access to a such service, completely unnecessary for monitoring purposes or for the basic operation purposes.
Michael, do you have an idea on how to improve the plugin?
