I for one am confused why this was not added from the get-go. You allow us to use stored credentials for many things, but not this?

and how will this work when your NPM environment is virtualized?

Was anyone able to get around this? 

Has an official release date been set?

i just want to know what solarwinds is doing with this tool..

I like that your adding support for Amazon AWS, but what about Mickey$oft? Cloud Infrastructure Monitoring * Amazon AWS

so, for day 9 - are we supposed to include the "or" in our answers?

sorry I didnt see this sooner - this is becomming a MAJOR item on my list. With more and more devices using Syslogs, better rules are becomming a necessity. I have, like some others, been waiting for this to be better with Orion. I am almost to the point of using a "Non-Solarwinds" tool!

bit of a rant here - if you are offended, sorry. I have been a customer of Solar-winds well over 10 years. I have seen you guys do alot of growth. Some good, some not. Here is what I read from your last post, Cobrien - SolarWinds does not care enough about this product to continue imporovements and development, unless you…

Looks really cool. since it appears we can only sign up for the SAM beta, is this also being developed in parallel with NPM?

This mission I like - I have been a fan of SolarWinds since the first toolkit was released.

Yeah, I'm going to also revive this thread - For the Switchport mapper tool - can you add POE info? your already on the switch - should be able to show if POE is enabled on a port, how many ways are in use, etc.. or maybe a new tool for that? 

I like this idea. We should be able to pick and choose any type of monitoring, including multiple methods.

Same here. I don't remember the last time I was checking the site every day. On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 12:13 PM, jay.perry <

the new web-based mapping application leaves ALOT to be desired. I do not see full features like we had in the stand alone tool. Are the MORE plans for the mapping tool? 

Are you guys upgrading existing installs, or fresh/clean installs?

PLEASE continue to work on this. This is one of the BIGGIST failiings in the Orion product line. so much so, that we are actually discussing moving to a new solution. (there are other factors, but this is one of the biggest). As more and more infrastructure products use SNMP/Syslog for communications, as well as alerting,…

Amazon cloud is now supported. Why did you not include Microsoft at the same time?

There are issues - follow this thread for tips - SolarWinds NCM Connector for Cisco SmartAdvisor

I was having a good morning... then this reminder.... Thanks..

(late entry, but...) ANY component should have the option to be disabled.

wow. this is interesting. I haven't looked at these forums in over 2 years, since we upgraded to Orion NCM (but have since gone BACK to Cat Tools). I am surprised nobody responded to this survey - or are the entries hidden? Just for the record - Cat Tools *IS* a life saver. We had a building get flooded a few years ago,…

Can you elaborate on this? Are you suggesting SolarWinds create new product, or create canned montiors for existing systems? I can get behind you and push for monitors that I can display statistics, but I don't know if a NMS should get into that line.

I agree. I am now looking for 3rd party tools or scripts that will help do this exact thing. We just had a major chassis go down because we had too many POE devices, and were over budget. This type of monitor/sensor should be included by default in any monitoring tool, imo.

I am going to up-vote this. I would like to see this as well.

I, like a lot of the IT guys around, have been in the line of work for 2-3 decades. When I started, there was no such thing as a GUI. It was ALL cli - you learned, or you found a new career. Over the last 10 years or so, some companies have tried to migrate to a GUI management interface. Cisco has as well - some work…

I have seen this too. 

Bump!

Many years ago, when 5 1/4" floppies still had prominence, we had a lady repeatedly call in that her floppy drive was not working, and "eating disks". After many trips to her desk, the techs asked me to come with them to verify they were testing the drive correctly. I watched the tech insert the disk, lock the door, format…

still would like more updates to this list.. the original post is now over 1 year old. SURELY there are SOME improvements coming?
