So I have built a couple of datastore alerts in the Orion alerting engine. I won't bore you with the technical details of the alert logic, etc. because it doesn't really matter. My issue is with using SWIS variable references and having them not render in the output. Here is a portion of the notification entry: Datastore…
I am in the process evaluating VMAN and ran into an issue. I added my vcenter and the system discovered my 2 clusters which are Management and compute. So far so good, i was able to pull the info from the ESXI hosts which are 7.0X. I am using distributed switches with a mixture of 1Gig and 10 Gig ports. My management ports…
Hi guys, Please advise. We are upgrading from VMan v6.3.2.69(fairly an old version) to VMan 2020.2.4. The former version used to run independently on a separate server relative to the latter which can be installed on the existing orion server. Is it possible to install VMan 2020.2.4 on a separate server and with its own…
Evaluating VMAN and curious what others opinions are out there please? We have a reasonable sized environment and I am trying to justify VMAN but looking to see what the real-world major differences are vs std poller and node SNMP data? Cheers Twister
I have a question, that somehow support does not seem to know the answer. I brought a 320 Socket license. I added a few vCenters, and within those vcenters, there are over hundreds of ESX host. At the time of purchase, this 320 license count was recommended by solarwinds. Now, after having expanded and deploying more ESX,…
I have a big environment. Really big. We had originally spec'd out our environment a few months ago and purchased the appropriate licensing. Lo and behold, by the time we got VMAN rolled out people had added more hosts to the target vCenters and I've reached my maximum socket count already. (Cue sales team stampede.)…
Not sure if this is the correct discussion area or not, please advise of a better option if there is one. I have a custom Perfstack poll setup to monitor 6 servers Peak CPU load and it randomly stops monitoring 1 or 2 out of the six. I then have to go to that particular node and kick off a rediscover of it to get it to…
I'm taking over some of the management for Solarwinds at my company as we kind of had a few people all doing their own things who never fully learned it and we wanted to reduce waste and clutter. I noticed that our ESXis appear to have added individually and not all of them correctly. Our VMs have also all been added…

Hi looking for recommendations I would like to schedule the shutdown and increase of CPU and memory on a VMWare virtual machine. I have successfully used the recommendations in the past however this task is not in the recommendations as we need to increase resources for future workloads.
