Thanks KMSigma, so your advice is a small nginx server instead of ARR to load-balance, and with that, we will, or shouldn't have any issues setting up SSO via Okta through this configuration? Okta SAML SSO is the main objective through LB.

After having a call with our F5 engineer today, it seems that although Load Balancing is in play at the moment using a simple configuration, and the version has just been updated, he doesn't believe that the company are going to be spending anymore money on the F5. I talk about money because, what we currently have is a F5…

Thanks Guys, very much appreciated. Some of the accounts last logged on back in 2017 so those ones certainly will be stripped out, but as you've all pointed out, AD will govern access to SW via those active Security Groups. Most of these historic Users are individual users, whereas all I can see in Accounts is Groups, so…

Can I remove these account in SolarWinds via editing 'Database Manager', or at least mark the account value as 'Disabled'?

So the database values aren't 'True', in that, I believe when running the SWQL query against 'Accounts', that there are 400 Enabled Users that have access to SW, when in fact, this is not the case, even if the individual users are removed from the specified Windows Groups. So to get round this false data in the SW-DB,…

Do you know why SWQL against Accounts shows enabled SW access when the Accts are no longer in AD? Thank you for the adjusted SWQL, I'll run that now, I'm just trying to reduce the SW Access footprint in view of Security. Many of the Accts haven't logged into SW since 2020, and we only have Windows/SAML Groups granted…

Very much appreciated, this has saved me a lot of work..

Going to try this now, very much appreciated.

Hi Guys Thank you for your input. We have run through some of the new migration process on the new servers, new hostnames, and running the PS-Script to update a new IP. We then used SQL Studio to connect to the restore/copy of the DB and couldn't connect, but after updating the SQL credentials, and granting permissions, we…

We are already running Orion 2024.2 on our environment. We need to connect one Primary Polling Engine to the database from our secondary SolarWinds Polling Engine in a different environment.

Found it, In this table I can see 'Name of entry' such as "Decrease CPU on VM" Then there's a 'Description' column, for example "Decrease the number of CPUs on VM (4 CPUs to 2 CPUs) Exactly what I need to push into a Report for Management to highlight 'Over Allocated Resources' across there VMware environment. Thank you…

Hi Adam, visibility and monitoring is fine, but the client is reluctant without Support from SW if it was needed. 

KMSigma, this is perfect, I've validated your query in SWQL which is fine so I'll make adjustments based on the output I need. Much Appreciated for your help and support.

Hi Guys I'm logged into the SolarWinds SWQL Studio SDK. I run the below query which presents a table with all of the headings requested in the query, and the Capacity Metrics are all in Bytes. SELECT TOP 10 CapacityTotal, CapacityFileSystem, CapacityFree, OperStatus, OperStatusDescription FROM Orion.SRM.Volumes Capacity…

Apologies, I meant SWQL via the SDK. I'm new to SWQL so still picking things up. I have the Storage Team asking for a dashboard to display some Volumes Capacity metrics in a Table Widget so I have created the Table Widget and run the SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [dbo].[SRM_Volumes] which is fine as I will/can filter out the Rows…

Hi, and thank you for your response. Where does the SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [dbo].[SRM_Volumes] line fit into the below please, is the below query correct to convert Bytes to GBs on the SRM_Volumes table? (GBs) SELECT [FreeSpace] AS [FreeSpace_Bytes] ,[FreeSpace] / 1024.0 / 1024.0 / 1024.0 AS [FreeSpace_GB]…

Perfect Steven, thank you for the information, I was unaware of this Agent communication mode via 17778 only.

One other note, the 3 Domain Controllers were apparently communicating using the SW Agent

Hi KMSigma When I follow your steps and this was the way I grabbed the variable for the Email Address input my variable presents the same as variable already being used, and doesn't look like your example. This is what I see.

Hi Dodo I'm contracted in for a few months to tidy up SW for the client who rely heavily on Alerts and at the moment all Support Teams and Individuals are receiving far too many alerts and false negatives. They're in the Finance sector and are a 24/7 operation with over 3,000 servers and hosted applications to stay on top…

Hi Dodo, apologies but I have no idea what has been suggested above, you're clearly an expert on this product :-) I can't even get my head around the simple GUI options.....

Apologies for the delay sreenathmp, I have a couple of questions. Is the below a SWQL query to run and can you provide me with an example of the query as when I add an IP address or hostname of the target server I receive errors. SELECT NodeID as NodeID, SysName as Hostname, IP_Address as 'IP Address',…

Thanks Steven, exactly what we're looking for.

Hi Just a quick overview of what I have setup. SW servers in a DC (192.168.x.x) - Monitoring the estate, multiple locations Server 2008 server (VM) also in the DC (Jump To server to SW) - Just created specifically for audio alerts in a new NOC Windows 10 Ent Client built in the new NOC (10.x.x.x) I can connect to the Jump…

Hi Guys I have another question for you. Based on the above resolution I now have a different associated issue. When I place a Node into Maintenance Mode I also receive a **Node DOWN** Alert which I have setup across the estate. How do I suppress the Node DOWN Alert for the Nodes going into Maintenance Mode?

Hi Leon That makes sense, an email out to SDP ticketing for tracking SLA, Escalation, and Ownership, then a separate mail out to expert groups. I'll give this a try today. Thanks.

That's what I was looking for, the Component > Statistic Data part, perfect, thanks Mprobus.

hi Yaquaholic Thank you for the help with this. I managed to establish a direct link between the client and server at each site therefore eliminating the Jump To server. The Notification Tool does not receive any errors in relation to Certificates which I did have trying to login to the Tool over HTTPS from the 10. to the…

Hi Yaquaholic I've been resolving a Certificate issue between the Jump To and SW servers today as this was presenting and issue when trying to login via the Notification Tool. I have since fond that the new Jump To server doesn't have a Sound Card so that will be rectified first thing in the morning. I also have a call…

Thanks mprobus, the variables within the subject and/or body of the message was incorrect, this can be changed to NodeName, or FullName which now reports back correctly.
