Grettings All and Happy Holidays. Working in an environment with one Main Polling Engine (MPE) and several Additional Polling Engines (APE). SW Agent used throughout for polling. Question about best practice for polling setup of polling engines (under Node >> Edit Properties). I understand that best practice will be "APEs…
Hi together, in our SolarWinds Hybrid Cloud Observability, WMI polling stopped working without any change to the service user or infrastructure. Using several different accounts that have admin access on the target vms did also nothing for us. We tried several fixes aswell as a total reboot of the complete environment.…
Hi can we add Group managed service accounts (gMSAs) for WMI polling for our Windows Servers? Thank You Eric
We have tons of new agents ( ). Nodes are also exist, polled by ICMP. These hosts are not ours, we have no credentials. So in case there are few of them, I can check them one-by-one and press "Manage as node" button: ^ Manage Agents page And if I change the polling method from ICMP to Agent one at a time, no credentials…
I needed to update thousands of nodes from SNMP to ICMP. Obviously doing this through the web console would have been tedious. I wrote this script to make this change in bulk via the API. Hope this helps anyone else out there who needs to do something similar. * Line: 37 - Update this with your Orion hostname or IP * Line:…
Yes, I know I can bulk edit Node properties in the Mange Nodes section, but since it tests the credentials in the background when you hit submit, I often get website timeouts when trying to do more than 50 nodes at a time. Its really slow going when you have hundreds of Windows nodes to do, plus you still have to run a…
We can only select SNMP or WMI as the preferred polling method, but it would be great if we could choose Agent here as well.
Hi, when I did the first network discovery with SNMP polling method, I didn't include devices/nodes that respond to ICMP alone (see attached screenshot). Now, I would like to add ICMP as an additional polling method for devices/nodes. Could someone show me how I can perform it? Thanks
We're running into a problem where SNMPv3 credentials are being unassigned from nodes when the SolarWinds server or services are restarted. The credentials themselves are not lost and we can go back in and reassign them to the nodes in question. This does not affect WMI or SNMPv2. Has anyone else run into this issue?
Ahh agents, the joy of every monitoring engineer who has to monitor 1) a secure node, 2) a remote node over an unreliable link or 3) something where you have to get data to your Orion platform across the interwebs. Eager server admins will install agents as you sing the praises of single port connections to Windows boxes…
