As Qlik Sense relies on data being available in RAM, there may be severe performance issues if the Windows server starting paging.
When running on Windows, it would be good if Butler SOS could gather data on page file usage.
Size of all page files, to what extent they are used etc.
This feature should be automatically disabled on non-Windows OSs.
Speaking against this feature idea is the fact that Butler SOS would have to run on the Sense server(s) it/themselves.
If Butler SOS runs on a dedicated monitoring server paging for that server would be done, which is of less interest.
Unless it is possible to get remote pagefile info using the Windows APIs...
Another option could be to create a small utility that pulls page file metrics and post this to a (remote) InfluxDB database (the same db that Butler SOS uses). Configuration of this tool could be done via command line parameters, making it standalone and easy to run as a Windows service.
