A polling agent serves as an integrated capacity planning polling agent and a performance monitoring polling agent and a central monitoring system issues capacity planning management data templates and performance monitoring data templates to the integrated polling agent. In response, the integrated polling agent requests capacity planning and performance monitoring data from a client and returns responsive data to the central monitoring system.
