AppInsight for IIS is automatically being assignedto nodes with IIS installed. How do I stop this?

I want to manually apply AppInsight for IIS only to the nodes/servers that I want, rather than what is happening now: which is it seems that it is being applied to all nodes that have IIS installed.

How do I stop this auto-apply or auto-assignment from happening?

Thank you~

Most likely you are running discoveries and have left the box checked for the appinsight templates. When you set up the discoveries you just uncheck those and you should be good.

That sounds exactly what is going on! Thank you @mesverrum !

Unfortunately I'm too new in solarwinds to find the configuration that let's me undo this. I'm poking around "Discovery Central" and a "Network Sonar Discovery" page but I can't see where the appinsights for iis template is set to auto apply to every node that has IIS installed.

If you know where that is, that'd be awesome (I'll keep looking and post back here if/when I find it).

I found a Monitoring Settings page that has the "Manually set up monitoring after devices are discvoered" option selected:

If I select "Automatically monitor based on my defined monitoring settings" it activates the "Define Monitoring Settings" and then I can select to automatically monitor IIS.

But I don't want that enabled, so I cancelled out of this screen and selected "Manually set up..." (as mentioned, that was already selected when I came into this screen).

Am I poking around the right area? I'll try saving this and having the discovery run again after I remove the AppInsight for IIS template from a few servers.

That's the spot, when you import the results of the discovery just make sure the box doesn't get checked.
