Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing well. I’d like to start a discussion about an issue we’ve observed with the SolarWinds SAM module when using Agent Monitor on servers with multiple domains. According to SolarWinds support, the "Location" value is retrieved from the last DNS query made. However, in a recent case, we noticed…
I have 13 Windows and Linux monitoring agents that have been stuck in "Update in progress" status since at least 9/30. I tried restarting the agent service on a Linux node and a Windows node, but the status did not change. I cannot find any log files that might tell me what the problem is, so I'd like to cancel the upgrade…
I have the SolarWinds Agent installed on our Domain Controllers to polling with external user accounts, why is it that UDT is still asking for specific account. Why isn't it using the locally installed agent to preform the polling?
Can we monitor SQL hosted on DB which is belongs to different domain than my orion server using Appinsight with SolarWinds agent ? Our team is not allowing us to create cross domain trust.
Hi, I have a bunch of Linux servers which we have installed the SolarWinds agent on and they were configured for server initiated connection. Now I would like to use the Solar Winds API so I can add these agents into the console. Same as how we would do it manually on the web interface like the below: Is there such API…
Currently the SolarWinds Linux Agent installs into the /opt/SolarWinds directory by default. Please provide a means to be able to edit this either interactively when the install.sh is run, or automatically via parameters that are included within the install.sh for a pre-configured agent install. Our Linux admins would…
Hi ALl, How is memory calculated when Solarwinds agent is used for Linux servers? Do we have any command or formula that is run in back end? We are doing an automation for most of the metrics so the team needs to know the forumla in order to compare and then put in prod...
I'm trying to come up with an alert that will notify me when the agent stops responding to SolarWinds (or stops sending data to SolarWinds). First a bit of background: I have a customer with 500+ agents and they have had numerous issues with the agents stop responding. Fixes have included reinstalling the agents,…
It would be great to see the option to set predefined properties for Solarwind's Agent installations. When I install an agent, it always appears somewhere in my orion system, with no properties defined. If I have to deploy agents on a massive scale, it can be of great help if I can preset some properties for a specific…
We're starting to leverage agents as part our testing for cloud-based server monitoring (less holes in the firewalls = better security, right?) and when you go through the agent add process it says that agent initiated is the preferred communication method. Any ideas why? We are leaning towards server initiated as it makes…
