I've seen it come up as a requirement for some contracting work. Might want to ask a recruiter for their view

If i'm imagining your scenario correctly, the order for the windows groups in the solarwinds accounts page for the admin who's got 2 groups will define which permission set they get, not combining the two. Worth testing though.

I'd add in the OR Component status = Down (assuming a seperate alert covers down states) Component status = unmanaged Component status = External (questionably) Component status = Not running + Condition most exist for more than 30 mins (or so)

The abs here is being used as "give me a number" (rather than text, that looks like a number). The +1 bit is actually doing the math on it's own In your original I think you're thinking of SUM like in excel, in SQL it's more like when in excel you select a whole column and see the little number in the bottom right

Personally all of our log content stopped working, and support said we'd need the paid license. This has been mostly clarified as wrong but I've not got it to solution yet so could be wrong myself too. The lm-feature doc reads as a big switch-off of features to me. Perhaps it's just in the windows-server-y space, i'm just…

Ecmel is correct, but to add context - It's saving the data as a string, which is text and as such you cant do math to it. So what you do it ask SQL to read the string and do math on it, which converts to an integer, then do the math you care about and re-save.

If anything has changed specifically in the last couple versions i'm unaware. Aside from that it means add node -> meraki API. That gives you access to all the APs but no switches for some reason.

Lil' table element for Group members where group is X, repeat 12 times if not Yer's solution

iframes are bad juju by 2022 You can dodge this problem using the directlink account which is even worse for security You may want to pull data out via SWIS and render in the HTML element you've got. Might be worth dropping a sanitized version of the iframe code you're running in here, as well as if you're trying to log in…

It's doable but I'm not going to find the time to write it anytime soon If you're doing it in pure swql you're dealing with timeseries data, that's where to start If thats a pain, you could set an alert (doesnt need to do anything) for that condition, then report on the alert.

If it fits in the "message" section then yeah sure. Can be fiddily to work with. If you want something bigger than the message section you may want to setup event forwarding

Short answer: Nah

There's a Status poll, a performance poll, and a topology poll - For whether you're trying to find out What's UP, what's hot, or what's where. The performance poll actually does most of the stuff you care about for virtualization (usually i've not got much hyperV in my env at the moment) Check these places: Table: SELECT…

Probably: Auth to your api GET schedule Process data Auth to Solarwinds GET nodes POST updated schedule

Should be fine

I take this to mean "If you've got an agent installed on a server with a https monitor assigned to it, the source of the http request will be that server, otherwise it's from the polling engine assigned to that server" Non-agent node [Polling engine] - > [URL] Agent node: [Polling engine] <- [Agent] -> [URL]

Look for if the Nextpoll date is in the past. That's a scheduler bug if so, and probably a sign of some other poor health in the environment Also worth checking if the performance poll is set to a stupidly long duration (4 hours or so) as that seems to be common

You could either make an alert that selects your target application monitors and takes the action "update custom property" for un-UI. Else could do it off the API/Orion SDK Connect-swis Get IDS where something Generate properties For each ID in IDs Update-swisentity( or whatever it is)

Add to NCM, download config or add to schedule, if error, check device template

Tested this partway in my environment. - Do you get an error when line 5 is removed?

Yeah it's possible solarwinds.github.io/.../

If you can generate an email address for your teams channel, that also works and avoids 443 (presumably emails work for you currently, but this'd probably be 587). You should probably have 443 for license management and maps and such though.

Steve's is the relevant one, but as you asked, my personal bugbear is that there's a requirement for a diagnostics upload for anything to pass up the line, which is super annoying for global issues: 01254222 / 01240763 Being asked for contact details on every ticket is also pretty grating after a while when I know my…

Either WMI or Agent works. You may want WMI so that you get the permissions to check AD properly

Thanks Tony. It can be quite difficult to get through the support structure at the moment

if your certificate in azure is presenting on a URL that can be resolved in DNS you can probably do as above/below "You could try adding an external node, selecting the "use dns" option, and then adding the SSL monitor to that" If your certificate in azure is some other strange thing, or it cant be reached with a set link,…

You could try adding an external node, selecting the "use dns" option, and then adding the SSL monitor to that Personally i'm trying to get a script to connect into azure to read a bunch of api calls off related to this, which has been a faff so far

ty for fighting the good fight

I've found (and have seen a number of others come to the same conclusion) that "moving" to Modern dashboards isnt really an option yet. When they're useful they're nice but until we can use things like Maps, SQL, etc there's some pretty major stuff that's just ruled out

Had a look to see if I could find what the Icon thing wants. No luck though. Havnt found a useful example just yet. Under some circumstances a formatter seems to be available to handle it, not sure what that wants either though.
