Radishwar, could be the reason that the VMs with CPU load higher than 100% have more CPUs? Something like this. If this is not your case please contact support.

Hello, can you be more specific please? There's no limitation regarding data export. Just if you want to export results from List then it's limited to 50 rows: If possible, insert screenshots, SQL queries you used, etc. Thanks, Milan

Hello, yes, there's such report in VMAN. I. IOPs report from a chart 1) perform a search over VMs you want to get 2) select all the VMs and press "Add to Chart" (if there are more than 20 VMs then you can add them later on) - choose "IOPs" metrics and x-axis set to "Last 7 Days" 3) press "Save Report...", set Max. details…

Apparently all attributes used in the search queries are also available to Hosts. So for example "Oversized VMs" trend vm.powerstate:poweredOn AND ((vm.cpuloadSumpeak.week:[0 TO 30] AND vm.cpuCount:[2 TO *]) OR (vm.memloadPeak.week:[0 TO 30] AND vm.memory:[2048 TO *])) can be rewritten to host.powerstate:poweredOn AND…

Hello, problem is anywhere else. If you want to join more queries together then use "AND" operator or don't use it at all. Boolean operators are case sensitive. So you can use one of those search queries: vm.vol.freeSpacePercentage:[0 TO 100] AND vm.folder.level-1:"All SQL"vm.vol.freeSpacePercentage:[0 TO 100]…

Hi, 1) installation: you can deploy an OVA template in vSphere or import VHD into Hyper-V Manager. Detailed steps are in Virtualization Manager manual. It takes up to 5 minutes to have the VM up & running. 2) add new data sources: after 1st login you can follow steps in Configuration Wizard or in Setup - Administration…

Hello, if you want to filter VMs based on folders then I'd recommend that you use vm.folder.name and/or vm.folder.level-X attributes. Below is an example of Top-N widget: 1. Search query: vm.powerstate:poweredon AND (vm.folder.name:"Folder 1" OR vm.folder.name:"Folder 2") 2. add requested attributes in Columns tab, i.e.…

Hello, in VMAN it's quite easy. In each alert just define Cluster Name, i.e.: Alert1 - find out all VMs with CPU load higher than 90% running under "Cluster Dev" cluster: Search query: vm.cpuload.latest:[90 TO *] AND vm.cluster.name:"Cluster Dev" Alert2 - find out all Hosts under "Cluster Prod" cluster with high write…

Hi kolev, its' a known issue. Dev team is working on it and the fix is scheduled for a future release. There's a workaround, see http://thwack.solarwinds.com/thread/58252 Modifying the trailing window attribute will help with this issue.

Hello, you can follow those steps: 1) in Reporting - Data Export configure Item Type and Search Query (or directly from Search Results module -> Export Results button). Add requested attributes into the right pane, i.e. vm.cluster.name and vm.host.name: 2) run the report via Run Export button 3) as soon as the report is…

Hello, there's an option to export Alerts (and other content) into XML. If you go to Explore - Content menu and filter content by type, you will be able to export all alerts and their details:

Hello, did you reboot VMAN Master Appliance and all Collectors after the upgrade? If so, I'd suggest that you contact SolarWinds Support team and send them bundled logs from all Collectors and also Master Appliance.

From Virtualization Manager ver. 5.0 the Windows installer is not available. Please see Virtualization Manager documentation for further information (paragraph "Updating an Existing Windows Installation" under Virtualization Manager Administrator Guide - Installing SolarWinds Virtualization Manager section).

Hello, can you try upgrading to latest VMAN ver. 6.2.0? This issue should be solved in that release. Please let me know if it helped. Milan

Hello, AFAIK it wasn't possible. The dashboards are sorted alphabetically, so you can rename the dashboards like "1. Reporting", "2. Capacity Planning", ... In Setup - Users menu you can also set default dashboard for each user after login to VMAN: Did it help? M.

Alerts can be deleted in "Explore - Content" menu. Filter out the alert(s), select the item(s) and press Delete button: Hope it helps.

Hello Sven, solution is easy. Set "Sustained Minutes" value to 1440 if you want to raise the alert after 24 hours: Milan

Hello, Firstly, all the dashboards having "VMware" in their names show also Hyper-V environment. Secondly, as soon as you add new Hyper-V server(s), three new dashboards (Administrator Hyper-V, Cluster Host health Hyper-V and Manager Hyper-V) will appear. Those dashboards are designed to show Hyper-V data only. Please note…

Just an idea - what about to test VMAN itself? Create a new Alert: 1) Severity: Informational 2) Item Type: VM 3) Search Query: vm.name:"VMAN" (replace VMAN name) 4) Evaluation: Performance data collection 5) setup either e-mail notification or SNMP Trap If you get Email / Trap then all services work as expected. If not,…

Hello, you can redirect HTTP to HTTPs maually in iptables. Also blocking of HTTP access is one of features planned in VMAN 6.0. Milan

Hi, you can export hourly / daily / weekly / monthly / quarterly averages as follows: Note: the averages are from past period. So monthly average shows data from December. Also Trends can be exported into XLS. Choose Period (i.e. 1 Month) and press "Save Report". Data from last 30 days will be saved into Excel document.…

Hi, it is possible. You can follow the steps below: 1. go to Reporting - Data Export module, choose "VM" as Item Type and Search Query = * 2. on the right pane select Load Template and choose "VM Resource usage Report Template", or add desired attributes manually by "Add Attribute" button, i.e. 3. by pressing the "Run…

Hello, create new credentials, add them to the clusters you want to monitor and exclude all other clusters (or hosts, VMs, ...). Then use the new credentials in VMAN. The lab environment will disappear (after two days). Does it help?

Hi, you can do that simply by modification of credentials you are using to collect data from vCenter: Ignore_specific_Hosts/Datastores/VMs Please read also VMAN Admin Manual, "Infrastructure aging" chapter. Does it help?

Hi, please try this: 1) create a new Trend, on Segmentation tab insert this formula: substring(/virtualMachine/internal//dateCreated,1,7) [see help for XPATH on the internet] 2) on Dashboard create a new Trend widget (it's recommended that Mode is set to Multi-Trend Table): Please let us know if it helps or if you need…

Hi, I suppose the only way is to modify SQL query to get results for particular Cluster. Something like this: Once you have all widgets modified for first cluster, you can copy the dashboards & widgets quite quickly: 1) export data (Explore - Content -> choose the dashboard & press "Export") to XML file 2) modify Dashboard…

Hello, the hosts will disappear after two day's period. Host's details (Connection, Memory, ..) are grey. It means the host is stale. Please see Infrastructure aging paragraph at the SolarWinds Virtualization Manager Online Help (Basic Setup chapter) for further details.

Hi Steve, if I understood well then I hope these steps would help you create a new trend that shows total amount of storage per BU: 1) choose a set of VMs you want to include in the trend, i.e. "*" and press "Trend Results" button 2) set Scope, Criteria and Segmentation as follows: Scope: no change Criteria: Attribute =…

Hi, if the issue is resolved and the VM is the only one in the alert then the alert should be automatically lowered according to configuration of the alert (whether the alert is evaluated on Conf / Perf data collection, Sustained minutes, ...). If you think your alert is raised and should be lowered then insert screenshots…

Hi, in VMAN you can define when the emails are sent to one or more recipients (consecutive events, only when raised): See Alert Notification for further details. In Setup - System Properties menu there's an "alert.rollup" property (by default = true). If it's set to true, all VMs (Hosts, Datastores, ..) are sent in one…
