I'm able to use REST to add individual virtual machines for monitoring without any issues. I use Create/Orion.Nodes to add it, then Create/Orion.Pollers to set pollers, Create/Orion.NPM.CustomPollerAssignmentOnNode to add custom pollers, adjust custom properties on Orion.NodesCustomProperties,…
Broadcom's price increases are forcing companies to rethink their virtualization strategies. VMan currently supports only VMware, Hyper-V and Nutanix hypervisors. Adding additional supported hypervisors such as Citrix XenServer will keep SolarWinds relative as companies look to migrate off VMware.
We have an alert setup so we know when there are any snapshots across our VMware estate over 2 days old and this currently works well. My question is how to customise a second alert to go to a particular team based on the VMware tag? In SWQL Studio I can get the query to pull in the tags ok but in the alert page I have an…
Can an option to either print or export the report to a PDF please be added, as this will be useful for us to attach a change request.
Greetings All. Working in an environment where most servers run as client systems in VMWare. VMWare uses 'VxRail' devices which I think are enclosures for server modules; the server modules then run client systems. For shorthand call the VxRails VXR and the modules VMH. With SolarWinds we use VMAN and poll our VMWare…
We have over a dozen VMWare hosts in vCenter. Many of the hosts have virtual servers that are intentionally left powered-down, either as templates or 'just in case'. How can I exclude these VM's from being included in the host's status? Thanks, Joe
Hello - I thought I had a report running monthly that would tell us the Snapshot sizes of VMs we have. It looks like I have been wrong the whole time. I can get snapshot count but I cannot get snapshot size - it defaults to Total Used Storage size which is the entire VM not just the snap shot. Can I generate a report that…
We have been importing (through VMAN) Nutanix clusters, hosts and VM information for a while. We have noted that the import has some deficiencies compared to their counterpart VMware: (a) VMs imported from Nutanix via VMAN don't contain VM metadata like CPU, Operating system, DNS name or memory utilization whereas VMware…
Hey everyone, I was looking for a best practice document on monitoring a Windows Failover Cluster running Hyper-V and couldn't really find one. So I was curious how you guys go about monitoring it. We have a couple hosts in the cluster and have a couple Clustered Shared Volumes setup for the VMs. I built out the host nodes…
Its observed that the variables that are required to be present at bare minimum are not available for use while using VMware Events.. like below * Source Time * Log Type * Level * Event Type * Key * Secondary Source Label These are all visible when we click on an event in VMware Events page but when we go to alerting, no…
