AppInsight for IIS is part of the SAM 6.2 beta and includes native IIS Site and Application Pool monitoring, as well as a slew of other amazing features.

If you have a better IIS template that the one included in SAM then I would definitely suggest sharing it. There are no known issues using the one that ships with SAM 5.5 against IIS7 or II8 (see attached). If there are things missing from this template you would like to see added please list them here. We are always…

The only way I could see this working would be by using the Custom Chart resource using a SWQL query. If you are unfamiliar with the SolarWinds Query Language it is very similar to standard SQL queries. If you need assistance constructing a proper query I recommend posting to the Orion SDK Forum.

Based on your description of the problem it sounds as though you are looking at using the Windows Script Monitor, which does in fact run locally on the Orion server itself. There is really no way without an agent running on those hosts to execute Perl or VBscript in the same way you do Linux/Unix hosts via SSH. Not all…

Unauthorized typically means no credentials were provided, or that the credentials used have insufficient permissions for accessing the page. It's also possible that the page you are expecting to see is really just a custom designed 404 error page, and SAM is properly reporting it as such. Another possibility is that the…

Alex Slv, can you please open a case with support and reference this thread? We have a workaround we can provide you that will allow for greater than 200 characters to be used in this field.

out of curiosity, why don't you use NPM to collect this information?

Your output does not appear to be properly formatted.. Your "Write-Host $FolderSizeOutput" should be "Write-Host Statistic:$FolderSizeOutput". For more Details see the following section of the Administrators Guide here -> SolarWinds Online Help

A simple file monitor may be sufficient for catching and alerting you to this issue. Probably the simplest would be the file existence monitor pointed a common file such as c:\windows\win.ini

Can you explain exactly what you're trying to accomplish? There is only one Interface Details view by default. If you'd like however, you can define a custom Interface Details view per-interface type under [Settings -> Views by Device Type]

Is this occurring for all applications or just a select few? If the application you're experiencing the issue with is using the default Application Details view you can simply delete this view from [Settings -> Manage Views] then rerun the Configuration Wizard which will rebuilt the view and return it to its default…

It's hard to get a sense for the number of component being monitored from poller details view. Can you post a screenshot of the SAM License Summary View [Settings -> SAM Settings -> SAM License Summary]

This means there is a lock on files which need to be updated by the installer. This commonly occurs when the Windows Event Log is locked by some process, preventing us from registering our DLLs so that Orion Windows Events can be written to the Windows Event Log. Stopping these services may not be absolutely required. It’s…

SAM 6.3 Beta 2 is now available which includes a Linux Agent for Node, Volume, Interface, and Application monitoring. This agent should address many of the shortcomings associated with monitoring Linux host via SNMP, up to and including properly calculating volume usage statistics referenced in this thread. If you already…

I believe this is discussed at some length in the following thread. Linux Drive Monitors not Accounting for Reserved Space

Not at this time, though that would be a good feature request. The resource does support sorting, but that is not a setting that persists through other sessions. You can however use the custom table resource to the NOC view that displays all mailbox databases.

I have screen shots and charts to indicate better what I am seeing but here might not be the right place... Here is definitely the right place. Show us what you're seeing.

Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing?

I would recommend using Custom Properties to achieve the kind of alerting you're looking for.Groups are for dependency mapping and root-cause analysis. Instead of using groups you should look at custom properties, which are far more powerful and were designed specifically to achieve what you're looking to accomplish. This…

I believe the reason why you can only choose three of the universal MIB pollers to chart is that the universal device pollers must be defined as a "rate" and need to be configured to keep historical data. Look at the configuration of the universal device pollers that you'd like to chart but can't and made adjustments as…

You don't need to install HP's Insight Manager. Only the SIM Agent for your respective servers operating system. * RECOMMENDED * HP Insight Management Agents for Windows Server 2003/20089.0.0.0 27 Mar 2012856K: 19m 512K: 2m8.70.0.0 11 Mar 2011

It sounds like you are trying to monitor a website or web based application running on a node that is managed in Orion from the Orion server itself. If that is incorrect, please clarify. To do this, simply assign the HTTP or HTTPS Monitor template to the node following the instructions outlined below. Assign to Node You…

I can't say I've ever seen this exact error message before but is it possible that the hostname "solarwinds-orion" does not resolve on the SAM server? You may want to create a local host file entry on the SAM server so this hostname resolves to the local IP address of the server. If this fails to resolve the issue I would…

Can you post a screenshot of how the component monitor is configured? Also, have you tried mapping a drive on the Orion APM server to the path entered into the component monitor? Also, I would verify the credentials you're using in the component monitor have permission to access the network share and the file you're trying…

Sounds like you're wanting to use the "Group By" option to group all metrics together by server or drive.

Native Orion SAML 2.0 for ADFS is included in the NPM 12.4 Release Candidate which can be downloaded from your Customer Portal now.

The content (subject line/message body) of any email alert message can be modified using the Advanced Alert Manager and editing the email Trigger Action. There you can add additional information, macros, text, and format the message to your liking.

The Min/Max charts when configured within the time frame within value configured for the "Detail statistics retention" setting. This is 7 days by default. Also, if your chart granularity is configured to match the polling interval (5 minutes by default), then no consolidation (high/low) will be shown, and only the raw…

This is definitely unusual behavior. Are you using the "SQL Server 2005-2008 Performance (SQL)" or "SQL Server 2005-2008 Performance (WMI)". This will determine what type of credentials you'll need to use, as well as the connectivity method used to monitor the application. the "(SQL) version will connection to your SQL…
