Hello Monitoring-Folks, as you all know, in SolarWinds Orion, there is following behaviour with Users / Groups and their permissions: If a user is a member of multiple groups, the user only receives permissions and views from the group highest in the list below. - Quote from the Account Management Page Now due to a massive…
In my everyday routine I'm having difficulties in tweaking restrictions (to non admin users) because I'm not able to see and try: -what that user(s) is able to see -if any mismatch is present -if security has been enforced as intended I'd really like to have a feature to simulate/act as I'm a non-admin user.
Suggest a Notes field in the User/Group account section (screenshot) In my environment we must document user/group adds to Solarwinds with a Change Request. Great to have a field for entries like "added JoeP 12Sep2022 per CRxxxxxxx" with CR... as the Change Request number. Thanks.
To make it simpler to manage my Orion environment, I add most users using AD Groups. This works great until you want to enhance rights for a single user in that group. Usually that is just a temporary change where I want to revert the user back once they finish the project they are working on that requires the additional…
In the past, the importance of access rights management had to wait in line behind trending topics like hybrid infrastructures, digitalization, cloud, and the latest new tools the C-level wants to have and implement. As a result, access rights management in companies often lacks transparency, is organically grown, and…
I would like to see that firmware upgrades can be delegated to users (e.g. junior admins) that are not full administrators of NCM. Of course they should only be allowed to execute firmware upgrade templates on the devices they are restricted to manage.
So we might be getting to the bottom of my odd issues with Solarwinds and just wanted to see out in THWACK land what others have done. We have our IT department and all of the users in the department have logins into Solarwinds. Are they all in Solarwinds at once? Not really maybe 4 of us at a time at most doing things in…
There needs to be a more granular permission scheme. I own the Solarwinds instance for our enterprise, but we have 89 local sites with their own local IT departments with their own infrastructure. We have some blanket rules for alerting that cover the enterprise, but each site may have different rules for what's important…
I'd like to see Orion allow users to set up permission groups. Instead of setting permissions on an individual user or AD/SAML group, I'd like to be able to set up access levels in Orion (i.e. admins, operators, help desk, read-only). This would be especially useful now that Orion supports SAML authentication. It is much…
Now that Orion supports SAML authentication it would be nice to have the ability to copy/migrate accounts that currently exist as individual Windows or Orion local accounts to SAML accounts, copying all permission settings. Ideally this could be done in buk with an option to modify the username to match the equivalent SAML…
