  • The most likely reason why Orion is reporting 98% memory utilization when you have 2GB of additional free memory is that the Operating System can't address it. Barring any black magic and voodoo, 32bit operating systems can only address a maximum of 4GB of RAM. While the additional memory will be acknowledged, recognized…
  • This can be done today with the Advanced Alert Manager though we'll take this feature request under consideration for a future release.
  • What version of SAM are you running?
  • It's definitely part of Orion. You might want to use Process Explorer or FileMon to determine exactly what process is using it. Filemon is a great utility for troubleshooting permissions issues or locked files. Best of luck.
  • First, ensure that you're not assigning AppInsight like you would a template. Start by deleting/removing AppInsight for any node it is not functioning properly on. Next, upgrade to SAM 6.0.1. It can be downloaded from your customer portal. After applying SAM 6.0.1 and go to the "Node Details" view for the host where MSSQL…
  • I would suggest using the "None" operator in it's own condition group. Below is a simple example that will alert when any node is down except the three listed in the alert.
  • Is the Service being monitored in SAM via WMI or RPC? Are you using the out-of-the-box "Restart a service" alert?
  • What version of SAM are you running? It may be that the device you're polling doesn't fully support SNMP GET BULK. This can be disabled following the steps outlined in the KB article below. SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Problems in Orion APM with SNMP Process Monitors failing
  • Thank you CourtesyIT‌. If only I had a dollar for every thwack point I had earned. Instead, all I got was a Hello Kitty balloon (Thank you ding).
  • The functionality provided by the "Exchange 2010-2013 Database Availability Group" Template is now natively included as part of AppInsight for Exchange, which is available in the SAM 6.1 release, currently in beta.
  • I uploaded an updated version of the DAG template today which resolves a few issues customers have reported. I recommend downloading this new updated version to see if that resolves your issue.
  • Because SEUM uses the same collector as other Orion modules it's not possible to shutdown SEUM by simply stopping a Windows service without affecting other Orion modules. I would recommend unmanaging all SEUM transactions. It should be a simple two click process. 
  • AppInsight for Exchange must be configured to monitor each member of the DAG. Regardless if the server is active or passive, AppInsight for Exchange should be aware of that fact and report accordingly.
  • In the current version of SAM 6.x, is the label display above the chart limited to showing only 30? The Multiple Object Chart is not limited to 30 data series in the chart, though as you can see below 30 is quite noisy as it is. 45 would only make it worse. The chart on the left shows only 30, while the one on the right…
  • The table split introduced in SAM 6.2 improves database maintenance performance by over 90% in most cases. If you were referencing this table before you should now instead reference the view as you stated above.
  • I'm having a very similar problem with 8.5.1. Case #22323. If you figure out what the problem is let me know.
  • These non-migrated alerts remain in the legacy Win32 Advanced Alert Manager. In almost all instances these are alerts with broken alert conditions that never worked in the legacy Advanced Alert Manager anyway. In the off chance they were working, they will continue to function as-is, but can only be managed or modified in…
  • Ensure the node is managed via WMI, click "List Resources", select AppInsight for IIS. When you click on AppInsight for IIS from the "All Applications" resource you will be prompted to configure the server, which is configuring WinRM on the remote host. After that you should be good to go. You can even try it yourself on…
  • Joshua Robinett wrote: Is there a way to monitor all Disks, Hardware, Up Interfaces, etc by default? Searching the forum I've only seen threads stating there is no multi-edit "List Resources". Not currently, but this is something we're currently working on. Further, if we try to re-discover the nodes using a Sonar Scan, it…
  • Can you post a copy of this modified template that is throwing the exception above?
  • If you're running multiple instances of a java application server on the same host you'll need to run the SNMP daemon and/or JMX listener on separate ports. Once you've on this you can assign the application template to the node multiple times designating the respective port used for each of the component monitor.…
  • What version of SAM are you running? SAM 6.1 (pictured below) does appear to have a credential option.
  • The "Log to monitor" works just as you suggest. The screenshot below shows an example of this. However the Log Source does not support multiple values separated by commas. Your options are to create two separate component monitors each defined with their respective log source, or leave the field blank/empty which will…
  • Shibboleth is a fairly complex web authentication scheme which would require the use of Web Performance Monitor rather than SAM's basic HTTP/HTTPS User Experience Monitors.
  • The Universal Device Poller is an exclusive feature of NPM. It is not included as part of SAM and cannot be made to operate without NPM. SAM does however provide an SNMP Monitor which is partially equivalent to NPM's Universal Device Poller.
  • It's likely the node you have applied the "Exchange 2010 Client Access Role Counters (Advanced)" template too is not running the CAS (Client Access) role.The only other possibility is that there's something wrong with your Perfmon database. I recommend opening Perfmon.exe on that server and looking for the "MSExchange OWA"…
  • Thank you for your feedback mdriskell. This actually has been requested previously. We're currently tracking this feature internally as FB28909. In the interim, if you find yourself doing this frequently for a number of component monitors it may make sense to break these out into their own application templates so you can…
  • I second that suggestion! Great Idea!
  • In my experience SQL will not let you mount a database from another database server except through the restore process. If you're able to mount the snapshot database on a different database server then theoretically there should be no problems, however this is not supported. I've used products like SQLSafe in the past that…
  • Applications can have unique views, but components all use the same Component Details view.
