Top 10 Volumes by Disk Space Used widget Pulling in RAM, not disks

I am using the widget called "Top 10 Volumes by Disk Space Used" in one of my custom views. I have a view limitation that restricts the view to a Single Group. However, it is pulling in Physical Memory (RAM) and not the disks...RAM is not a disk...right?!

Yes, I think SolarWinds looks at it like a volume. I just added a Filter in Edit --> Filter Nodes (SWQL) : Caption Like '*:\*'

Since all drives have a \ in the caption, this only displays my drives and no longer littered with RAM details in this view

I guess the widget is just poorly worded...

I don't have the "edit" button to filter out...i wonder if that's because i have a view limitation?

Are you a SAM admin?

rmullal

I am. i don't have an "edit" button on any other views that use this widget either. I can filter other widgets with SWQL no problem, just not this particular one.

I'm on 6.8 too.

I am on 6.8 as well. I just filtered my view and still can edit. I did mess with Manage Users: Allow Account to Customize Views. If I set this to no, I lose the edit function on all views. It is weird that you only don't have it on that one. I also added a view limitation and I can still edit.

The Windows Group I am in has full admin rights and "view customization" has that beautiful green "yes" underneath. any other ideas? i just opened a case with support.
