the api is only able to authenticate via username and password or certificate

I don’t think query caching will cause issues, just as I think it would not really solve your issue. Check here if something might help your issue https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-sql-server-configuration-best-practices-sw1430.htm Cheers

how many components are in your environment? How are you calculating the availability? What is the setup of the Solarwinds SQL Database? Keep in mind that a report/ dashboard is a SQL query in the backend. It might be coded inefficiently, so it hits the timeout mark before completion.

your identifier is nothing that teams would understand which message you would want to reply to. You need to store the response of your POST message which is not possible to my knowledge. You could parse the alertactionexecution log to find that response. But I don’t see this as a real option

this is expected behaviour due to API rate limits in the Meraki cloud. If you would poll faster you will most likely hit that API limit and then get no data at all. So the only solution would be to get Meraki increase their API limits, which they most likely will not do due to keeping their platform performant.

you can not install ETS on the Solarwinds platform. The Solarwinds Platform includes ETS on TheWeb and you activate it by assigning a license to a User. ETS Desktops is intended for install on a client machine.

so from the Specs I am assuming SQL enterprise license (otherwise only 128GB RAM can be used see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/sql-server/editions-and-components-of-sql-server-2022?view=sql-server-ver17 ) So my next guess would be then the content of your dashboards causing insane amounts of data needing to be…

nevermind, I just realized this only works foragent on the Main polling engine https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/nta/content/nta-local-netflow-source.htm sorry for the confusion. The agent on the MPE captures the traffic on the MPEs interface and transforms it to NTA data. Same Technology as Wireshark.…

use the Solarwinds Agent and you will get Netflow like data for Windows.

you would need to store an identifier for your alert message so you can reference the „up“ message to the „corresponding down“. As you can not access the response of the POST in your alert action properly I doubt that what you are asking for is possible in the GUI, yet it may not be possible at all…

what are the server specs for your database server, and how is your database server set up? Is it a dedicated sql server or a cluster?

you can leverage the SDK for that. There are possibilities that come to my mind but it would be way too complex to explain in a single forum post

is the system shut off from the internet? If so you might want to switch off the check for revoked certificates as this could cause slowdowns due to checks on those certs that are not possible to go through

There is no ingestion method for those metrics via push API at the moment to my knowledge

the only thing that is „free of charge“ when conneconnecting SWOsh to SWOSaaS is anomaly based alerting. Everything else needs to have appropriate licensing in place to function properly

SWOSaaS has its own licensing, and it is also for Solarwinds a service they need to pay for ingesting data. So your licensed Nodes on SWOsh still need a License in SWOSaaS

nevermind…. Just realised we are in SWOSaaS.. RUM or Synthetic User Monitoring come to My mind here, other than that API again ….. my old response below that was aimed at SWOSh….. WPM or NetPath are the easy entry points. Further down the road you will be looking at API Calls to the system, custom SAM Powershell Templates…

add node, in the polling method use the „virtualisation“ method and then you can choose proxmox.

implemented in 2025.4

most likely incompatible ciphers and encryptions.

When I Hard-Code the Parameters/Variables this works on my end: param( [string]$reg = "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\SW-Reg-Check", [string]$Key = 'PendingReboot', $target_value = 1 ) $reg_value = Get-ItemProperty $reg -name $Key $KeyValue = $reg_value.PendingReboot Write-Host "Message: '$reg' is currently set to '$KeyValue' " if…

Install rsyslog: apt -y install rsyslog configure rsyslog nano /etc/rsyslog.conf add the following line at the end of your conf *.* @192 .168.11.20:514 of course you replace the 192.168.11.20 with your SEM Appliance IP Restart rsyslog: systemctl restart rsyslog This should now send the syslogs to your SEM. Of course you…

Are you monitoring the node via AGENT or WMI? What is the method in your SAM Component - Local or Remote? When you browse the Registry on the Node, can you see that Key and the Setting? Also your script is expecting 3 Arguments while you are only passing it 2

you need to configure rsyslogd on your proxmox to send syslogs to your SEM. It’s a similar config you would do on other Linux based systems

you can convert a single proxmox node into a cluster. Just follow the cluster wizard Proxnode4 is a single node cluster

plus Running the real time process explorer on multiple devices programmatically will be probably painfully slow.

very nice demonstration of real life Netpath usage! Thanks for this

ebradford​ I know it is frustrating to have that one red X in your monthly mission table. I have those also and most of the time I also fell into a trap but we don’t make mistakes, we make happy little accidents. I think that “the test makers” are not only in charge of the tests, therefore the tests are “a burden” but they…

I Hope you find some Schnitzel in Dubai

The social ranking discussion always reminds me of that one episode of Black Mirror. I wonder what else they predicted correctly... have a great time off
