Hello, I need "Messages per Custom Interval" Graphs (i.e. per minute, per hour, etc)

but "WMI Exchange Transport Sensor" have only "Per Second" sensors...

Dear MAA

The sensor factory can be used for computations: https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/sensor_factory_sensor.htm

Depending on your case of applications, you might want to derive these values from sensors with actually different scanning intervals before you use factory sensor to scale their output.

The sensor factory also applies retroactively to existing historic data.

Can you show an example for "Messages per hour"?

If the sensor ID is 2312, and the channel ID 0, the formula to just mirror the sensor value is

#1:Messages per second channel(2312,0)

To get message per hour, the value has to be multiplied with 3600. The according channel definition would be

#1:Messages per hour channel(2312,0) * 3600

With this formula its no real "Messages per hour", its "predicted" "Messages per hour"...
