Retrieve and restart "Hardware Monitoring Service" / CIM Providers

Hi community!

I have a customer facing an issue where the CIM providers / hardware monitoring service seems to be crashing from time to time. As a result we are unable to rely only waiting for alerts regarding hardware issues.

Does anyone know a method on how to check if the related CIM providers are working and if the hardware monitoring service is up and running?

If this is possible I'd like to schedule a job to check this service and restart it if it fails.

Regards,

Thomas

Afaik, the CIM service (which is the pegasus process if I'm not mistaken) can only be managed from the vMA.
