Hi Everybody,

I am getting the following error message while trying to save remote performance counters for MSMQ service.

"In handler 'win-wmi-collections': Instance = 'zzzzzzzz\abc_logging' is not a valid instance."

I have replaced the server name with zzzzzzz. All other performance counters such as Disk space, ASP.Net, etc are working fine.

I ended up rewriting the wmi query manually.

I am having the same issue. I can view the "Computer Queues" to see the total(?) number of queue messages, but I can't view the counts on individual queues.
