Getting incorrect data for % Idle time from UF ( windows server 2016 )

Hi All,

I'm using the default windows addon and fetching the %idletime for physicaldisk, but except for C: drives it shows 0% for all others but when I login to the server and check the graphs it's always around 100% and until the performance monitor is open Splunk will also show me the same data (100 % idle time ).

Kindly help me out with this.

Stanza I'm using in inputs.conf

[perfmon://PhysicalDisk]

object = PhysicalDisk

counters = Disk Transfers/sec; % Disk Time; % Idle Time; Avg. Disk sec/Write; Avg. Disk sec/Read

disabled = 0

index=perfmon

instances = *

interval = 300

mode = multikv

useEnglishOnly=true
