It is already possible today to adjust the real-time polling interval of PerfStack. This is available under advanced centralized settings http://{YourOrionServerAddress}/Orion/Admin/AdvancedConfiguration/Global.aspx

We stopped handing out beta 2 at the end of last week in anticipation of beta 3 being available. You should have received an email earlier today with a link to download SAM 6.1 beta 3. If you haven't yet received that email, please let me know.

Have you considered creating a feature request for this? Network Performance Monitor Feature Requests

If you can see the serial number in the Hardware Health resource but not in the Asset Inventory view, this sounds like it might be a bug. If this is an ESX/ESXi host, then it's likely a lack of the appropriate vendor supplied software being installed. If it's a Windows or Linux machine running on HP hardware, I would…

Support for Azure is something we are also considering. You can vote for this idea at the link below. *

The "Operational State" property displays the numeric state value of the database. The lookup table for this value is below. state tinyint Value Applies to 0 = ONLINE 1 = RESTORING 2 = RECOVERING SQL Server 2008 through SQL Server 2016 3 = RECOVERY_PENDING SQL Server 2008 through SQL Server 2016 4 = SUSPECT 5 = EMERGENCY…

Yes, you can create an alert to notify you when the process is running.

Beta 2 should be available sometime next week with lots more goodies.

Are those devices included in the scan, and are the results being imported or simply sitting in the discovery results?

In the WAN scenario, can you keep both servers domain joined? Yes Also, is it possible to configure a generic DNS name for the protected servers so that it is not messing around with actual server names? For example: ORION-01 (datacenter 1 server) ORION-02 (datacenter 2 server) DNS name for pair: [A] OrionNetMon.domain.com…

Something like these? Credentials Used By WMI Nodes​ APM Component Monitors Whose Credentials are not Inherited from the Original Template Credentials Used By APM Component Monitors AppInsight for SQL Credential Inheritance Report

I have set this up in my lab and it functions perfectly without issue. From what you are describing it sounds like there is some issue with the Information Service on the secondary server. Note that this is typically the last service to become fully operational after a failover has occurred and it can under some…

The process for Additional Polling Engines is essentially identical to that of the main poller. Simply rinse and repeat. Additional Web Servers have no unique configuration settings, so no migration is necessary. Simply stand up another on a new server and direct user traffic there, either by taking the same IP address as…

Of course

SNMP/Traps have been completely overhauled in the 2019.4 release.

So you have this value configured and only ${N=Alerting;M=AlertDetailsUrl} and ${N=Alerting;M=AcknowledgeUrl} are respecting it? The macros ${N=SwisEntity;M=DetailsUrl} and ${N=SwisEntity;M=Node.DetailsUrl} are not?

My understanding of Group Managed Service accounts is that these can only be used by Windows services. These are not accounts which can be used to login to a machine, or connect remotely to one via WMI, etc. GMSA accounts were created to allow a distributed application a secure method of running under the same user context…

Of the operating system, yes. Orion application upgrades require database schema updates which cannot be performed while data is being written to those tables, which is HA must be stopped and APEs shutdown during an Orion upgrade of the main poller. Once the schema is updated, you can upgrade the rest essentially in…

Are you looking for the existence of a file or looking through the contents of a file for a keyword, or string?

This information isn't available via SNMP with the minor exception of some Linux distributions which support the UCD-DISKIO-MIB. Unfortunately the IOPS information made available in this MIB is only for physical disks, which do not map back to logical volumes monitored in Orion. In fact, there is zero information to my…

System Center supports a maximum of 2000 Agents per-server, but I have seen many environments struggle to handle more than 800 per-server, and some as few as 400. SolarWinds estimates may be conservative, but they're reliable. To my knowledge I'm now aware of any management/monitoring solution on the market today that can…

Upon assignment of any application template to a node you are presented with the option to edit the assigned application settings as pictured below.

The agent could be installed installed on as many machines as you like, but to leverage any monitoring capabilities provided by the agent you must be licensed accordingly before those feature will work. This is really no different than agentless monitoring in Orion. QoE is licensed separately from the agent, though uses…

This functionality exists within the Advanced Alert Manager today.

This was implemented in SAM 6.2.4

WIthout Configuration Wizard logs its difficult to say for certain what the issue might be. If you have not yet already, please try and run the Configuration Wizard again and see if it self-corrects the issue. If it does not, I would recommend opening a case with support or contact your Sales rep for assistance from a…

If monitoring sites and application pool is causing you indigestion, you may want to check out my blog post below regarding the latest SAM 6.2 beta which features AppInsight for IIS. Server & Application Monitor 6.2 Beta 2 - Introducing AppInsight for IIS 

This is working in my lab after running the following command on the MySQL server set global show_compatibility_56 = on;

Core 2017.3, which ships with NPM 12.2 and includes these updates to PerfStack will be part of the SAM 6.5 release, currently in RC.

A minute is used to redirect users to the 'active' member in near-real-time when a failover occurs. Updating DNS once a minute may sound excessive, but honestly any DNS server should be able to handle this without breaking a sweat.
