Bumping to get more visibility 

I am trying to edit my post at https://thwack.solarwinds.com/t5/NPM-Discussions/Upgrading-Orion-Platform-2018-2-to-2019-4/td-p/591855 and when I click edit, the message and action button disappears and there is a big blank space.

I think you need to look at the cloud resource summary.

Yep and I chose incorrectly. I submitted it before I saw your message. Because the wizard wasn't listed as a form, I didn't think that was the answer.

Its still twisting my brain.

Has anyone done the Orion Insight yet? I'm gathering the diagnostics from my poller as the version I have installed does not have the diagnostics built into the website. Is everything supposed to be checked in the Diagnostics Tool? I recall years ago SW Support had you uncheck Active Diagnostics.

UGH! I missed it because of this. Dang it!!

I did the same.

For some reason you need a period even though there is a period after the blank spot.

Yep, I read it that way too and missed it.

Did you ever get information on SQL Server 2014 SP1?

Thank you Solarwinds for making the upgrade process much easier in NPM 12, which decreased downtime and made everyone happier.

Having a hard time making out what the screenshots show in today's hint. The resolution is very low.

"At the time that I wrote that....there were more than two answers. I've since found out the answers were adjusted and now there are only two correct answers. But C is technically correct. "Single-tenant solutions tend to be more secure since data is separated" This is factually correct statement and I am not sure why it…

BUMP

Same... one of the answers wasn't in any of the clues, so I don't know why its an X.

knucklebusted​ If you drill into the features list you may find what you are looking for with ports. EDIT: I got a green check mark using the information on the hint link.

Awesome write up on this. I am planning on upgrading our Orion 2018.2 (NPM 12.3) environment on Windows 2016 early next year, so this was a great read. I'm assuming I will need to use the online installer on the Main Poller and APEs as the centralized upgrades was introduced in 2019.2, so it looks like I have one last…

Chicago or Kansas City

I just got it... and almost spit my drink at my screen. Haha, good one!

Thanks! I always want to look at screenshots since I've been burned in the past.

I'm only seeing one, which is not an answer.

Probably Monday 6/7.

I can confirm that .net 4.8 works with Orion Platform 2018.2 / NPM 12.3. I installed it last week and our environment is working like it always has. Next up, the upgrade to 2020.2.4!

I agree. The answer was badly written. In the past we need to get the answer exact, but this time we don't? 

If I would have looked at the release notes I would have gotten the answer correct. It is much more useful than the link that is much more vague.

I've always wanted this as the various app owners reach out to the SW admins to unmanage instead of being able to do it themselves.

These questions are poorly written and the lack of a hint about the functionality being referred to compounds the issue.

I'm having a heck of a time finding the answer to Q6 of the SysAdmin track. Am I just not looking close enough at the hint documents?

I ran into the same issue. I chose a correct answer, but I apparently picked the 'wrong' correct answer.
