Dell Command | Monitor support for Hardware health
Dell Command | Monitor is the new name of Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation. This is the monitoring tool of the Dell Command Suite. With it, system administrators can remotely manage assets, monitor system health, and inventory deployed systems in the enterprise. It is available on Dell Venue 11 Pro, Dell OptiPlex,…
Component Monitor Dependencies or Sequential Execution
Currently SAM doesn't provide a way to control the execution of component monitors during a poll; all component monitors execute asynchronously or in parallel. However, there are some scenarios where you need to ensure that one component doesn't run before another one completes. One example of this is if you download a…
Alert option "Condition must exist for more than XX polling cycles"
in the alert condition screen where the check box has "Condition must exist for more than XX Seconds|Minutes|Hours", It would be nice to add "Polling Cycles" to the drop down. For example: My alert which is good for all other SAM monitors has "condition must exist for 10 minutes". I have a few SAM monitors that don't…
Get real-time process list via SWIS
Sometimes I want to get a list of running processes on a node using code instead of the GUI. It would be very useful if there were a SWIS method that I could use to do this e.g. Orion.APM.RealTimeProcesses().
Application Metric Persistence - Save your application monitoring metrics from digital death!

Your boss has some provisos: * You are required to remove the node from Orion immediately! BUT * That node had an important…
Application Search function
Please add the ability to perform a search for assigned Applications like you can with Application templates.
SPF record alert on change
I would like to monitor our SPF record for changes and be able to alert if it does. Also an easy way to accept the changes as the new normal.
Using API response for display name of an value
It would be great to use the API call response not only for getting the values but also the "Display Name" of that value to have a dynamic display name.
Allow Application Monitors to be Dependent on Other Application Monitors
The best use case I have for this recommendation is with SolarWinds High Availability (HA). I like to monitor my Orion servers with the Orion SAM templates to verify my Orion servers are functioning properly. The issue with monitoring the Orion servers when in HA is that if the template is applied to both the Active and…
Adding log collecting to (Kubernetes) Container monitoring
It would be nice if the container monitor can also collect log files from the Container node as well as from the containers or pods. (similar to https://github.com/fluent/fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset )
