Our Cisco APICs show up as "Unknown" Vendor in Solarwinds - how do we get the APICs showing under Cisco?
You need to monitor them via SNMP - this pulls back the SysObjectID which then populates the Node Details page:... and then in turn, that would populate it under the Manage Nodes section as 'APIC Server M2' (at least that's how ours appear).
There is an alternative version if you can't or don't want to monitor via SNMP.You can force change the entry in the DB (MachineType) from unknown to whatever you want. We do this for Thin APs that get added via API calls. Which reminds me, we currently have >800 unknown devices and we need to do a round of 'fixing'
