Microsoft Hyper-V

I havent dug into any mibs yet, but is it possible to give same style of page for Hyper-V hosting servers as you now have for ESX?

For native support in NPM like we have for VMWare, this is still on our list to add in a future release. It is not planned for the next release, this I can tell you for sure at this point. Many of our customers are able though to use APM to monitor this infrastructure.

This should be possible. However you will only have the UnDP resources compared to the dedicated resources developed for VMware ESX Servers.

You can use the MIBs from SNMP Informant and then create Universal Device Pollers.

Once you have your UnDP ready to use, you can create a dedicated view for Hyper-V server. I do not have a Hyper-V server atm to test that...

Let us know how you progress

We're considering the same sort of support for Hyper-V in the future. It'll be determined by how broadly and quickly Hyper-V is adopted.

ok, how do i get the MIB tree for :

1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.25

into Orion mib tree?

FormerMember

If you're using the Universal Device Poller, you just need to paste or type the OID into the wizard. No need to have the MIB in the database.

We also use HyperV on a huge scale ( 18 HyperV hosts with 22 guests on each) ive been waiting over a year now for NPM and APM to work properly with HyperV (NPM doesn't register RAM in HyperV hosts properly, bug reported last year) but i have seen no improvements.

My maintenance is due up early next year, if i don't see an improvement were be dumping solarwinds and using SCOM R2

What's your Ticket #? I'll check on it....

We're looking at the Hyper-V issue you mention.

We are also in the process of rolling out a Hyper-V solution and having SolarWinds support it like they do VMWare would be awesome.

Any Update on this?

The broader Hyper-V infrastructure monitoring is what we're referring to as something we're working on longer-term. However, if we're not reporting RAM on Hyper-V hosts properly, then that's something we'd like to look into now.

Do you happen to have the case # for the bug you opened? I'd like to dig into this.

Hi there,
Is there any progress on getting proper Hyper-V support in NPM yet? I've gone from 1 HyperV hosts to 6 in the last month and while I do have access to tools like MS VMM etc I really want to try and keep things under the one roof of Orion as much as I can. Really need the kind of support we have for VMWare but for HyperV. Any news on where in the roadmap this is?

Thanks,
Sean

Hi there,

I see that another year has passed since the last update on this. Has there been any further progress with adding support for Hyper-V? We are rapidly deploying Hyper-V nodes throughout our infrastructure and need to make a decision soon on whether we stay with Orion or move to SCOM.

Thanks

George

George, in case you didn't see the recent SAM beta post there is some good news! SAM has now added support for Hyper-V.

http://thwack.solarwinds.com/community/solarwinds-community/product-blog/blog/2012/06/04/sam-52-beta-is-now-available--can-you-say-hyper-v

As part of the work the SAM team did, we are working on shipping that support in NPM as well. We know it's been a long time coming but I'm glad to finally have a positive answer here.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

NPM 10.4 is now out, any update on support for Hyper-V Yet?? Because for whatever reason, Management is standardizing on Hyper-V vs. VMWare, lack of support for Hyper-V Monitoring via NPM is of utmost importance to us. They may end up standardizing on Monitoring too, yes Microsoft..Its becoming harder and harder to defend/justify the use of a Non-MS products.

FormerMember

does that mean you have to have APM/SAM to monitor Hyper-V?

I just want NPM to register the hyper-v as such and then break it out for node monitoring.

this should not require SAM when we are not monitoring applications.
