I ended up openning a support case on the issue as well. We noticed that the setting change reverts back after SW updates. I was informed that 2024.1, the setting reverting should no longer happen. I still have the case open though, as I am trying to get a better understanding so we do not have to enable legacy…

That sounds like a SAM monitor. Which could be executed from the agent.

This is what we are using. It gives the information for both maintenance mode and muted. It also queries the logs to try and record who did it. SELECT [A].Name As Application , [A].DetailsUrl As ApplicationURL , [A].Status As ApplicationStatus , [N].Caption As Node , [N].DetailsUrl As NodeURL , [N].Status As NodeStatus ,…

You maybe also able to get away with setting an a dependcy on the application (All Settings -> Manage Dependencies). In this scenario, the parent would be Node - Server1 and the child would be Application - SQL1. I haven't built out dependencies on applications like that, but in theory it could work. I know for our nodes,…

Unfortunatly I saw the thread bharris1 mentioned after we did our upgrade to 2023.2.1. Knowning the potential of job engine failure would have caused me to pump the breaks. Knock on wood, we have not ran into that problem yet. I have enabled the "jobs lost" performance monitor in our poller monitors. I have also added a…

So I'm going to preface this with an "In theory" yes. If you create specific alerts per component, you should be able to continue down that path. You would want to set your scope to have a specific "Statistic Data Label." In your alert, you would set your alert type to component. Then under scope, the first drop down box…

I tend to use custom properties on either the node or volume level to handle my alerting. I have custom properties on the node for alerting, and then a custom property for critical volume action and another one for warning volume action. If you select it at the node it treats all the volumes the same (send an email, a…

So on the example you gave above, it looks like on both of your Write-Host for message, you have the quote too early. In theory it should be: Write-Host "Message: $($ListsEqual)" where you have the end quote after the semicolon. I normally like to start with my code in Visual Studio Code or another PS script editor, to…

I'm not aware of a way to do that from the normal volume monitoring. If you are utilizing SAM, you could potentially do a PowerShell script to get the sizes of initial subdirectories and report back on heavy hitters. Probably a caluculation of use space against total drive capacity or something.

The easiest route would be to do 2 seperate alerts with different scopes based on your custom properties. Depending on the action you are taking, you could potentially do this in a single alert and some custom SQL inside the alert action (or if you were calling an external PowerShell script), but I think that would…

As far as I know, you will always need to use the function. Below is a quick example of it in use. If I was going to put that in a report or dashboard, I would remove the UTCTime line from the select statement. Since the time is all relative, I did not need to convert the local time in the Where Clause or Order statement.…

SolarWinds stores everything in UTC. That way if you have teams across the country/world, it will display local time for them. The function works on any kind of time block

If you are building stuff out in SWQL, you will need to add "ToLocal(PROPERTY) as SOMETHING" to convert it to the local time. Replace the all caps items with the field and however you want it to show in the report/table. If its not that, where are you looking at the DateTime at?

You would most likely need to create a SAM monitor to do that. I would probably wrap whatever command to retrieve the list of logged in users into a variable. Then do an If statement to set a statistic and exit code value on if the variable contains a name (Exit 0 - UP) or if it doesn't (Exit 3 - Critical).

Modern Dashboard Proportional widget status - Forum - The Orion Platform - THWACK (solarwinds.com) I was told it should be fixed with 2023.2 (so not the upcoming patch but the following)

Just saww the AllertObjects one. Any others I missed? I ended up doing some cleanup on that one, as I wanted to remove my environements custom properties.

to build off of ecmel has. For components I like to include StatusOrErrorDescription from the componentalert table, so you know whats going on. I would recommend doing an exclusion for Status 1 (Up) and 27 (Disabled). If you are using a modern dashboard, I also like to include the Status and URL/URI for Component,…

So received word that the Dev team has confirmed the issue. I was informed that it will be fixed with 2023.2, but no ETA for that release yet.

Thank you again Tony. One of the leads reached out on the issue last week. They converted the issue from a feature request (as submitted by support) to a bug submission. For a community update: The update I received today is that the Devs determined the issue is a bug. They are currently working on the fix, but no ETA at…

Agreed. If your security team frowns on service accounts needing Domain Admin rights, you should go with the agent.

They tried the same "SWQL is unsupported" line with me as well. I supplied the link to the SolarWinds knowledge article (Configure proportional widgets for modern dashboards (solarwinds.com)) on what it should look like and act. I even used the same query from the documentation on the call. They mentioned it was probably a…

Thats kind of what I was thinking. I was looking through the feature requests and didn't see anything that really matched. So hopefully I didn't create a duplicate: Modern Dashboard: Centralized Management/Variables - Feature Requests - The Orion Platform - THWACK (solarwinds.com)

Thank you Tony, much appreciated. I'll send the case number over. I sent it over in a DM.

Unforunatly for us, its a reboot. I normally see a large uptick in our node rebooted alert not automatically clearning (automatically clears itself after 10 minutes). When I see that going on, normally I need to bring things up quickly so a reboot of our primary does a good job of cleaning up it. I know that is more of a…

So I guess I'll stick with the query in the From statement, and then doing the replace/concat within the Select.

I also just tried adding the capacity to see if the widget would do it after the fact, and just the raw bytes.

I have the same thread here: Modern Dashboard Proportional widget status - Forum - The Orion Platform - THWACK (solarwinds.com) Ran into the exact same issue, and I have a support case open with SW on it. I'm in the same boat, I'd rather not implement a work around on the widgets if I can avoid it.

Worked with support earlier today on this, and still no good answer. They recommended some work arounds (primarly build a new query to do it with the custom data format). I requested they put in a bug about it, so not sure where it is going to go from there.

I haven't seen a data converter on the modern dash (currently on 2022.4). With just the capacity column (no formatting/conversion). I did not see any option for a converter on the formats: No formatter, simple number, or threshold value.

So I did some quick tests from my side: Supplying the custom property as is ${N=SwisEntity;M=CustomProperties.PROPERTYNAME} does pass through without issue on the To field in the email block. I was also able to verify that it works either as a text box or drop down list. Every attempt at a SQL injection in the To field has…
