Ignoring WMI monitoring errors when a server is down (not pingable)

From my initial searching, I'm unable to find info on how to go about accomplishing this...

 

The problem is:  When a Windows server goes offline (pings dropping), I also get Zenoss alerts such as "Could not read Windows services" and "Error collecting performance data".

 

I want to know how I would configure Zenoss to NOT attempt WMI monitoring on a server that is currently not replying with ICMP.

 

Any pointers?  Maybe some kind of event transform?
