I actually posted a report that answers this very question to the Content Exchange.

SAM's APMServiceControl.exe can be used to recycle the World Wide Web Publishing service, which in effect would stop and restart that process. You can also use the following built-in actions included with AppInsight for IIS and SAM 6.2 to stop/start/restart a specific website or application pool that is causing the website…

The following KB article should help get your emailed Orion URLs working with HTTPS. * SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: How do I configure the ${NodeDetailsURL} variable to provide https URLs?

Without some diagnostics or logs its difficult to say for certain, but if I had to make a guess it would be that the interfaces plugin to the Collector is missing or corrupt on the second member of the HA pool. I would recommend opening a case with support so we can identify the cause.

Is this a new install or an upgrade? Are there any Orion additional pollers or additional web servers in your environment?

This can already be done today using a simple HTTPS User Experience Monitor. You'll need to chain the HTML together into a string similar to the following Is then turned into.... <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><meta name="description" content="7+ GB of storage, less spam, and mobile…

I know development is aware of the issue and the fix should be included in 8.1 but I haven't received word if this will be released as a hotfix for 8.0.2. quote:Originally posted by rangertdc Has anyone heard anything on the whole Sunday bug thing? There's no way I'm going to use this as my production alerting system until…

Have you tried using the SSL Certificate Expiration Date Monitor in SAM?

This error can occur with AppInsight for SQL is unable to connect to the remote SQL server. One of the retry mechanisms is try different authentication methods when it is unable to connect. These attempts can result in errors like these appearing in the event log.

I'm not sure if this will resolve your problem in it's entirety but the most obvious thing I see missing is the colon ":" after the word "Statistic" which is used as a column delimiter.

Where are you seeing this? The full list of valid volume types in Orion is shown below. * Unknown = 0, * Other = 1, * RAM = 2, * VirtualMemory = 3, * FixedDisk = 4, * RemovableDisk = 5, * FloppyDisk = 6, * CompactDisk = 7, * RAMDisk = 8, * FlashMemory = 9, * NetworkDisk = 10, * MountPoint = 100,

Local PoweShell runs under the local System Account by default unless the "Run the script under specified account" is selected. Since you are trying to execute the script against a remote host, you may want to consider using Remote PowerShell, which requires WinRM to be configured on the remote host. The issue you may be…

Where is this information stored? Is it in the registry? If so, which key? Is it available via WMI? If so, what namespace? 

What version of SAM are you using and which template are you using to monitor the SQL instance?

Also, if you really think you are out of space, before you run the database maintenance go into "Orion System Manager" - File - "Network Performance Monitor Settings" - and turn down the "Daily statistics will be deleted from the database after" to 7 days. Then run the DB maintenance utilities. When they are complete you…

Availability is calculated based upon the availability table, not the response time table.

This screenshot shows only information regarding NPM/Core element counts (nodes/interfaces/volumes). I can say you're definitely nearing the higher end of a single poller for these elements. However, the screenshot shows nothing about SAM component monitors assigned to this polling engine, only that your at 66% of the…

What about running the SolarWinds Database Maintenance? Compact your DB etc and see if that helps.

We are tracking a request for a hardware summary resource under FB113287 but from the sounds of it you might be looking for hardware statistic support in the Multiple Object Chart resource. Is that correct? As for the PERC battery status, this may be something we overlooked. If you know which OID this is information is…

I would recommend creating a separate dedicated "guest" like account that only has permissions to access the information you want displayed, then provide a link on a page these users have access to in the following format that will pass along this accounts username and password in the URL. Replace "DOMAIN" with your…

SAM is more of a server and application health, performance, and availability monitoring solution and not positioned as an asset and inventory product. However, both NCM and Patch Manager can both collect and report upon certain inventory information such as installed applications, etc.

The section below of the Administrators Guide should help you get started configuring the SSL Certificate Expiration Date component monitor. SSL Certificate Expiration Date Monitor

To the best of my knowledge the Outlook Performance Counters have no definable instance. It may be different on a terminal server or Citrix XenApp host where the instance name is the name of the logged in user running Outlook. I would recommend opening perfmon.exe from the APM server and connecting to the terminal server…

What you're seeing in the screenshot above is the amount of whitespace in the database. This isn't 'free' space in the respect that it's the total amount of remaining space on the drive. It's wasted space in the database that isn't being used for anything. This is perfectly normal and expected for any/all databases. If…

Is it safe to assume that each process is executed with it's own command line arguments and/or from a different file path location on the file system?

Have you tried editing this SNMP component monitor to use GET vs GET-NEXT?

'/ui/ha/settings' is how you disable HA globally. This is provided as a shortcut for customers that have dozens of HA pools, as it's required to disable when performing upgrades. You can also disable HA at an individual pool level. This is handy when you're troubleshooting an issue with support, need to restart services,…

There's no benefit to monitoring all these interfaces. It's most likely you're not using Tunnel adapters anyway so there's no point in monitoring them. I'd recommend only monitoring the physical interfaces that are actually in use. You can also ignore the loopback adapters since there's not point in monitoring these…

The 'Unauthorized' error means that the URL requires authentication to access the WSDL file. I would recommend downloading the WSDL and copying it a web server which does not require authentication to access so it can be loaded into SAM's SOAP Monitor. This can even be a virtual directory on the Orion server itself hosted…

This isn't possible in SAM today but this is a function of our Web Performance Monitor as you can see below.
