I think it would be a nice feature to be able to pre-stage the upgrade files without having to Disable the HA Pools.
Just like we have the centralized Update Platform in the current Orion deployment (2019.2 and later deployments), it would be really nice to have a centralized place for upgrading to the latest MIBs. This process would help if you have additional polling engines. We would be able to update them in unison reducing the…
Considering DHS Emergency Directive 21-01, which requires (Appendix B, item 8), "The SolarWinds Orion server, the web server, and the database server instances must be installed on separate and dedicated hosts," support running an Orion Platform centralized upgrade using an offline installer from an alternate web server…
It seems I easily miss learning about helpful hot fixes and Buddy Drops when they're released. I'm pretty busy, and keeping up with them could be made a LOT easier: 1. Tie in all the Solarwinds modules (NPM, NCA, NTA, UDT, etc.) to some external service (the Licensing Customer Support page integration feature?) so…
Hi Everyone, I have a fairly large environment consisting of 25 APEs and 25 HA APEs. These APEs span across different datacenters across the globe. When attempting to do the centralized upgrade to 2019.4 I am running into an issue on several of the APEs. The APEs will first state "Downloading installers...2%" along with…
I have to say, the new Orion High Availability (HA) is lovely to use, controlled by an attractive UI, it is quick, intuitive, easy to deploy and use. However, it doesn't give true HA. As every time we install a hotfix, patch or upgrade, we end up with ~50 minutes of loss of service. All of the patches/upgrades require HA…

It seems like you already have an active Centralized Upgrade session. To look at your update progress, launch the Orion web console using the button below" There is no upgrade in…
Estimated reading time 2 minutes In the comments of What We're Working On For Server & Application Monitor (Updated December, 2019) I noted that for those of you who are on SAM 6.9 and higher (including 2019.4.x), you now have the ability to upgrade your entire Orion deployment from the web console. In a previous…
In the comments of What We're Working On For Server & Application Monitor (Updated July, 2019) you'll notice that I specified for those of you who are on SAM 6.9, you now have the ability to upgrade your whole upgrade from the web console. I'd like to explore what this means for those of you who are looking to upgrade to…
Good day, I am getting almost daily flak for our (albiet infrequent) solarwinds upgrade windows. Since we have grown to 8 APEs, the duration of the upgrade window continues to grow. Our last one one lasted almost 5 hours due to some Configuration Wizard errors. While I understand other customers ( a major sporting goods…
