It gives you a warning that you must shut down the polling engines to move them.

Thanks for the links. These links do not tell us what SWIS functions may or may not be used. The only way I have been able to find out is with trial and error. Could we get those documented?

This looks like the same issue I was experiencing with a bug in the Cortex.dll. There is a memory leak in it. They had a buddy drop to resolve it, or you can update to the latest release that has the fix in it.

I am getting this error also. Does this fix need to be applied to just the additional web server, to the master poller, or both. Is there a hot fix for this yet?

I believe the NCM Syslog server is only needed if you want real time change detection So, are you saying that NPM syslog will not work for this? What is NPM and NCM are running on the same box? I just upgraded to NCM 6.1 on a box with NPM 10.1.1 and now the NPM syslog will not start because there are 2 syslog services.

The warning is bogus and should be re-worded. The notice only applies the ESXi hosts, and vcenter hosts.

Then what is that warning about?

It was never resolved and Solarwinds closed my ticket, Here is the response: As per new policy here, we are actively closing out cases that are set to be fixed in a future release. Unfortunately, I cannot give you a definite release that will have the resolution to this case in it (as dev has not stated when it will be…

I still have a open case. Support is supposed to troubleshoot more via Webex tomorrow.

Hey Leon, Can you guys fix this: Configure website URL for Alerts and Reports - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support If you use this to configure your URL for a load balancer, then the health check on "My Orion Deployment" fail because it thinks that URL is a real server and can't find the services running on it.

I have this issue as well. I was running 3 pollers at 100% utilization, I added a 4th poller to decrease the load, and that is when the unknowns started appearing. So I don't see how it is a load issue. We need a FIX ASAP!!

You can use substring functions in config scripts

I'm having the same issue. Maintenance takes ab out 5 hours too. Logs say they complete.

There is a prebuilt report for that: All VMs Not in Solarwinds

I seem to always have issues with agents that appear offline.

This has been my experience with the last year or so. I too have to call my account team to get any traction at all. Rarely do I get a tech that is responsive or knowledgable. The last ticket I had was worked for over a week, when I called last and my support person wasn't available, he solved the issue in 15 minutes.

Just got this: SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: UDT 3.1 Scheduled Discovery Failing After Upgrading from RC1 to RC2 or RTM

RC2 breaks discovery Case #676590

IE9

This new software freaks out IE. Flickers and flashes so much I have to reboot to get it to stop, Chrome and Firefox don't seem to be affected.

Part of your script appears to be missing.

You should always stop the MSMQ service before deleting the MQ files. Click Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. Right-click Message Queuing, and then click Stop. Leave this open and restart after the files are deleted.

OK, so the 12,000 is not the limit, but there is some sort of artificial limit for the polling engine that gets unlocked with a key. That is the thing that chaps a lot of people. If I bought ALX and need to poll 20,000 elements at the standard polling rate on one server I should be able to do it if the hardware supports…

aLTeReGo​ Solarwinds licenses its products on the number of elements polled. Why do you charge extra if you go above 12,000 elements on a single server? Drop the SLX and just charge us per elements polled.

* Solarwinds licenses its product by number of elements polled. SLn * Solarwinds charges extra if you poll more than 12,000 elements per server. Why? * Stacked APE's do not increase the polling capacity for many of Solarwinds modules. Why? * Solarwinds should drop the SLX license, since it really does not exist.…

Another point. If it is just a license, why won't some modules stack? The Stacked APE cost the same as the non-stacked. If you have several modules, Stacking will not save you money.

Not trying to avoid the cost question at all. The cost is hard to estimate with this model. That's one of the many things wrong with paying per node, and then pay extra for elements. I would even pay more per node, if there was a true node based license with the unlimited eliminated so I could get the most out of my poller…

It is because the stacked APE is a gimmick. It has nothing at all to do with the capabilities of the system so it doesn't provide more scalability, especially if you have a lot of modules. 3 stacked APE's and my servers are still under utilized. Let us just pay per node or elements. In most every "What we are working on"…

Sorry, I just don't understand the logic in charging more to unlock the capabilities of a OS and hardware when you have already paid for licensing wither it be for 1000, 2000, or 5000 nodes. Either charge per node or element. Only way to make it fair and uncomplicated.

>>You're only paying extra if the engine can't handle the load. Exactly. No way can you poll very many nodes without additional APE's Clustering is not at all like stacking. Clustering is fault tolerance and stacking is to make money. I know of no other company that charges per node, and then makes you pay extra if you go…
