Looks like a separate post was created for this: Install Orion Agent using invoke-swisverb 

Move the script out of the root of the C drive. It's probably failing on permissions and the quote error is probably a red herring. Example: C:\SomeFolder\MoveLogs.ps1

I'd take a look at this example from Github. OrionSDK/Samples/PowerShell/DeployAgentViaVerb.ps1 at master · solarwinds/OrionSDK · GitHub Though from a cursory glace, you don't have an @ symbol before the agent arguments @().

On the legacy/classic dashboards, there is a widget called 'Status Summary' which is pretty easy to work with and has a lot of filtering capabilities. Here is an example selecting all NetPaths I have in my lab. If you click in the number status, it'll take you to another page with a listing Clicking any of those will open…

I'm not 100% on the potential upgrade path, but it would look something similar to the following * Install Server 2016 with SQL 2016 * backup/restore DB to SQL 2016* You'll need to follow the steps outlined here, specifically step 8.…

The trick with Global Filters and SWQL is you have to JOIN in the Custom Properties tables into your query. You do not need to reference then in SELECT. Here is an example for a Node Entity and joining in the Custom Property table. Line #3 being the most important part. SELECT…

+1 to what @"vinay.by" mentioned. There is no 'single jump' from the version you're on to the latest. There are multiple application versions you have to upgrade to in-between PLUS a few Server OS and SQL Versions that you'll also have to jump through. The path of least resistance would be to install fresh, export a list…

This type of report is not well suited for SAM. SAM is geared towards performance based metrics. I think that SolarWind's Access Rights Manager (ARM) would do this out of the box. Or you're running this natively in PowerShell without SolarWinds entirely.

Sounds like there might be a license issue? Is it possible to reactivate the license on that second deployment that is showing differently (SW service restart might be required)? This is the first I've heard of this occurring on 2024.2.1. If you have or end up creating a support case, add the case number to the thread (or…

What does the License Manager page look like on both deployments?

If you build an advanced SWQL report you could try the following query. I joined the IPAM.GroupReport table with the Orion.Engines table so you can see the polling engine name too instead of only the engineID. SELECT i.FriendlyName ,i.Address ,i.CIDR ,i.ScanInterval ,i.PercentUsed ,i.UsedCount ,i.AvailableCount…

The RC for 2024.4 is now available if you'd like to test out this functionality. Release Notes: documentation.solarwinds.com/.../solarwinds_platform_2024-4_release_notes.htm Product Blog: SolarWinds Platform and Products—Version 2024.4 Release Candidate Now Available!

The RC for 2024.4 is now available if you'd like to test out this functionality.

Can you walk through any steps you went thought for the setup? The process should be 1. Add the orchestrator in Manage Nodes > Add Node 2. input the Fortinet API information. The the Add Node wizard doesn't do a discovery, then after the node is added, drill into its Node Details page and there should be a button to…

My guess would be time zones. The GETUTCDATE and TOLOCAL functions could shift the time slightly different than the hardcoded date in your original query. You could dropping the TOLOCAL and also try replacing GETUTCDATE() with GETDATE() and see how that affects things. The hardcoded date would have kept it in UTC time.

I created this post a minute ago, but this is something that did using a custom SWQL alert to trigger alerts on a specific schedule for a recurring maintenance mode. thwack.solarwinds.com/.../trigger-an-alert-on-a-specific-schedule---custom-swql-alert

It would probably look something like the following. </code><pre class="code codeBlock" spellcheck="false" tabindex="0">SELECT ROUND(AVG(Availability), 2) AS AvailabilityAverage FROM Orion.ResponseTime AS rt JOIN Orion.Nodes AS n ON rt.nodeid = n.nodeid WHERE 1=1 n.customproperties.segmentation = 'Network' AND…

I've created symbolic links before for SolarWinds and other applications to get things off the C: drive. I know it isn't an 'in product' solution, but it has worked well for me over the years. learn.microsoft.com/.../mklink

While this is a direct yes or no, I'd recommend you review the follow guide as it might cover what you're looking for. documentation.solarwinds.com/.../core-secure-configuration.htm

Best you can do is either a Node or Interface custom property. Not sure if that is granular enough for what you're looking for.

@"Herman2024" , by default the data is not encrypted at rest. However, if you're looking for that type of functionality then I would look into enabling Microsoft TDE on your database server which would encrypt all data collected by SolarWinds database-wide.

There have been some conversations, but nothing in the short to mid-term roadmap.

There are a couple of different routes you could take, the right answer is really 'what is best for your client' * Consolidate to a single deployment (potentially with additional polling engines at each location)* Pros: Simplified administration, consolidated web views, alerts, and reports. decreased licensing cost for…

I've done this with another API Poller directly to the Orion API so I could get historical data. It allows me to better control the permissions than going directly to the DB. It also allows me to pulls multiple metrics back if the query outputs them.…

From my understanding, PowerBI allows for HTTPS/API integration. However, it requires a signed SSL certificate. Starting in version 2023.1 a feature was added to update the SWIS/API certificate with your own signed certificate. Details on updating that certificate are found here. I have not tried this personally, but if…

Assigning a UnDP looks available via the API. https://github.com/solarwinds/OrionSDK/wiki/NPM-Universal-Device-Pollers So looking at this from a SWQL and API standpoint, I keep waffling on how to tackle it since the best route isn't obvious at the moment. * Some type of Custom Property * Some type of script via Alert…

In the next major release, 2024.4, we'll support Fortinet FortiAP via API calls if they are managed through FortiLAN Cloud. That release is expected to drop mid October.

If you referencing the API/SDK/SWQL, then it's found in the Orion.OLM.LogEntryFieldValue entity. This would be the preferred route to view/extract/build customization over going directly to the database. Depending on the type of dataset that you're looking for, you might have to also look in other entities in Orion.OLM.

Your path might be slightly different, but that info is stored in the user.config file. C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\SolarWinds_Worldwide,_LLC\SwqlStudio.exe_Url_ydai5zblcqm1o5hs0iasex2zdrilqtnl\3.2.0.50049 Inside of the file you'll see a line showing each of the values. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>…

Have you looked into this article? IPAM relies on reverse DNS to populate hostnames for IP Addresses. If those reverse records do not exist then the hostname field we remain blank. support.solarwinds.com/.../How-hostname-resolution-works-in-IPAM
