akash1309​, It sounds like you want the Node icon (Status) to change colors based on the child object, in this case the Volume being over threshold. Is this correct? Derik Pfeffer Loop1 Systems www.loop1.com

chad71​, Have you thought about getting the lowest level license of the products you would want to demo/show your Clients running on a vm running on a hefty laptop machine? The only issue I would see is that the Client wouldn't allow you to connect an external system to their network. In that case, you would be back to…

All, Please combine these similar features together, so that the total number of votes can be combined. This will provide SolarWinds with greater visibility of the 2 separate requests.

All, I would like to expand a litle on this one.. It would be nice to have the new fucntionality that is tied to full layer2 connectivity between nodes, but would also liketo see it for layer3 conenctions. Examples of this is being able to show virtual servers connected to a port on a switch, that happens to be traversing…

I think this would be true for all child objects of a Node in Alerting. Interfaces, Hardware, Routing, Volumes, etc.. Derik

I have tackled this in the past by having CPs that covers either multiple Department as Infrastructure or a List with each Department names in it, now this becomes an issue maintaining numerous CP entries. I like your idea to have it multi-selectable so I have voted this one up. Best Regards, Derik Pfeffer Loop1 Systems:…

designerfx​, I agree, it would be useful to have all of these documented. It would also be very useful to have it support variables just like we can use within Alerts. This would cover almost everything including newly created Custom Properties. Derik Pfeffer Loop1 Systems www.loop1.com

+1 for my client out of the UK.

All, I typically see a number of different Provisioning, CMDB, and Ticketing systems when working with Clients. These interactions can be one way or bi-directional connections based on the requirements from the Client.

Balki 1429, I have a Client that I am working with now, that completed the Survey and has been waiting since Thursday of last week to get the download link for this new BETA. I would appreciate it if we can get them the BETA ASAP. We are currently hoping to provide feedback in monitoring he below in SRM or STM. * NetApp…

All, This has been a request for at least 3 years based on the feature request below. Best Regards, Derik Pfeffer Loop1 Systems: SolarWinds Training and Professional Services LinkedIN: Loop1 Systems Facebook: Loop1 Systems Twitter: @Loop1Systems

Balki 1429, Thanks for the update, I will pass this onto my Clients. Best Regards, Derik Pfeffer Loop1 Systems: SolarWinds Training and Professional Services * LinkedIN: Loop1 Systems * Facebook: Loop1 Systems * Twitter: @Loop1Systems

@dongam, Yes, I use nDepth to create, save, and schedule data for reporting. It gives me the same filter functionality used in realtime and rules to define the content of the report.

Yep, I think the link is incorrect. I have installed and running the RC, which highlights the items I checked and was identified as incorrect. I think Question 2 should be reviewed.

dhamiltonsafe​, You should be able to set maintenance windows using the either UnManage or Mute functionality for Nodes and Interfaces under Managed Nodes. This same functions is available under Application Management for your Apps along with Transactions under Transaction Management. These are more for AdHoc, but then you…

rahuls266​, I believe there is an option for Critical Threshold has been reached for Volumes. This would give you a True/False based on whatever has been set for Volume Critical Threshold Values. There is also one for Warning, as these are separate from the Status options. I am away from my systems otherwise I would have…

This post here has a similar request and then some additional functionality on status views of Volumes. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/4179 Derik Pfeffer Solarwinds Training and Professional Services LinkedIN: Loop1 Systems Facebook: Loop1 Systems Twitter: @loop1systems

Patrick, What are you trying to get out of VNQM? Are you tring to get an Operation like VoIPfrom Device to Device or information on Lync? The reason I ask is there is several Lync Application monitors in SAM. Here are some examples of that... Best Regards, Derik Pfeffer Loop1 Systems: SolarWinds Training and Professional…

I would like to see some of the structure ability round classic dashboards like view limitations and resource placement.

Balki 1429, Thanks for the response. I always do.. I feel it is important for the Client to get involved and provide vision and feedback to the product via the forum.

bruce.jarrett@ally.com​, It appears you are getting SNMP and NTA data. My client like this request and as such I have voted for ti as well. I question I have is how did you get NTA to show the Silverpeak data? We are seeing it configured and see it via wireshark,however NTA seems to be ignoring it. Best Regards, Derik…

drewl​, Yes, that is Log Manager for Orion. It is a separate module, however in the NPM working list they are using some of the technology and functionality from LM to the default Syslog/Trap functionality. It is still on the working list, so I can provide much insight beyond that at the moment. I hope to participate in…

If we could get a permission model similar to IPAM. You cand set permissions for read, read/write, Custom Properties, unmanage/manage type basis for Nodes, Interfaces, Volumes, Applications, etc.. As I would assume this would be handled at the Core Layer vs. Product Thanks, Derik

ability to/remove values for all UPS types in Manage Pollers would be nice, as it would then give a common look, reporting, and alerting

All, Everything should be logged.. more and more people are under one of more compliance structure and reporting of changes to Orion either by a User or the System via automation should be reflected in the Audit section. Derik

In addition to the SNMP requests noted above, it would be nice to have WMI as a fetch mechanism for items like System Name, Vendor, Machine Type as most of my Client's do not configure SNMP on Servers or Workstations.

aaswi, Are you using a standalone NCM system or is it installed with NPM? If so, you have better depth in grouping those Nodes with Custom Properties than with NCM legacy Node Groups.

hphan082​, SolarWinds already supports this in the Storage Resource Monitor, so not sure they would add it to NPM/NCM. It would depend on what data is missing and if SRM would be the better place to expand that data collection. Here is a link on the support in SRM. New Feature Summary SRM - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC.
