I have reproduced this issue with SAM 6.2.1 in my lab with the "Group Member" property type and confirm that this appears to be a bug. As such I have logged it internally under CORE-1610. The question I have is, do these macros convert properly when you "Execute" (not just simulate) or when a legitimate alert is triggered…

Can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

Have you double checked the date/time of both your Orion Server (including additional pollers) and the SQL Server? While you're there, also check the timezone. Maybe it's a "feature" and SAM is predicting what your performance will be like three months from now

SAM 6.2 (currently in beta) allows you to monitor processes and services when they are running, and have them go into a neutral "Not Running" state when they're not. This prevents alerts from triggering and red appearing on your dashboards for processes and services that run only as-needed, while still allowing you to…

We have an "idea" we're tracking for this very use case related specifically to processes, but there's no reason why this couldn't also be applicable to services as well. Currently, the only viable workaround is to write a script monitor in PowerShell to check the service status and return the appropriate status as part of…

Hmm.. I'm not able to reproduce. Running SAM 6.2 I copied the Active Directory template, which then created a new template named "Active Directory - Copy". I then edited "Active Directory - Copy", renamed it "My Active Directory" and then clicked "Submit.

Congratulations abdurrahim.gashi!

Removing a powersupply is not a fault or failure. it's as if the device never had that fan or power supply. If the power supply fails (yank the power cord, not the entire power supply) or fail fails (stick a pen or paperclip into the fan blade to stop it from spinning) SAM's hardware health will alert you to these types of…

You will likely want the APMService Control action to be it's own separate alert so as not to trigger when a service is in a warning or critical state, only when its down.

I believe the following KB article may resolve your issue. * The WS-Management service cannot process the request. - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support

I would recommend following the steps outlined in the KB article below. It's very likely this will resolve your issue. http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/3636/Monitoring+or+Polling+of+your+Cisco+Call+Manager+stops+working+after+upgrading+to+SAM+5.0.

Since the Orion Server has already been offered (and accepted) a DHCP lease from the one of the two DHCP servers within the same subnet, it's my belief that that other DHCP server will not make an offer to the same host with the same MAC address. For this you would need a second network interface in your Orion server and…

I would recommend adding a multi-object chart resource to one of your summary pages to display this information. 

Have you tried using the "SYSAUX" as optional exclusionary text in the second component monitor, and "SYSLOG" in the first so events that contain those words don't trigger a match? Also, I'll assume you forgetting to open quotes on SYSLOG was a typo and it's properly entered in the component monitor of SAM. I have another…

This would be controlled via the Alert Manager and can apply to all nodes/volumes or a subset of them depending how the Trigger Condition is configured. Below is an example of what that might look like to get you started.

The following list of macros are available to script monitors, such as the Linux/Unix, Nagios, Windows Script, and PowerShell script monitors. * ${USER} * ${PASSWORD} * ${PORT} * ${Node.SysName} * ${Node.Caption} * ${Node.DNS} * ${Node.ID} * ${Component.ID} * ${Component.Name} * ${Application.Id} * ${Application.Name} *…

The attached report can be imported into the Web Based Report Writer in SAM 6.2 and includes all information you're looking for.

Windows Script monitors are executed locally on the Orion server. If you need remote execution I recommend using PowerShell.

Orion can monitor whatever the vendor has chosen to provide via SNMP. What VPN solution are you looking to monitor?

This is due to the limited permissions granted to non-administrative users. You can configure your systems to use non-admin accounts by following the instructions in the KB article below. http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/3304/How+to+create+a+non-administrator+user+for+APM+polling. As for SQL administrator…

You can accomplish what you're looking to do fairly easily and dynamically using macros with the "User Links" resource.

The latest SAM 5.2 beta will now allow you to define a custom port for the SQL User Experience Monitor . If you're an existing APM/SAM customer under active maintenance you can sign-up here to participate in the beta. We'd love to get your feedback on this feature. To learn more about what's new in the SAM 5.2 beta please…

There is currently no ability to specify a non-standard SQL port in the SQL User Experience Monitor. The SQL User Experience Monitor can be used to monitor Microsoft SQL Servers on non-standard ports provided the SQL Browse Service is enabled and working. This behavior should be no different than other MSSQL tools when…

Waterfall charts will appear on the Step Details view.

Can you try just https://solarwinds.XXX.com/Orion/SummaryView.aspx?isnocview=true Does that return what you expect? If not, it may be a Subview you're trying to access, so the URL may be. http://10.199.15.106/Orion/SummaryView.aspx?ViewID=318&isNOCView=true

These counters are exposed when the Dynamics CRM SDK is installed on the server. These should probably be disabled by default so this is good feedback. I would recommend disabling these components since you're not using SOAP functions with SDK.

Information regarding the certificate is not stored in the database. As such there is no macro which can be used to include this information as part of an alert. You can however copy/paste this information into the user notes field of the component and use that macro to include that information as part of the alert…

Someone here on Thwack may be able to assist with a script that will address your needs but in addition we are currently tracking SOAP monitors in APM as a feature request under FB89007.

Offhand this looks to be a permissions issue. Have you tried using "sa" account or one with equivalent permissions for monitoring this SQL instance to verify this isn't a permissions related issue?
