  • If you are exporting recording it asks you if you want to encrypt it or not. If you select "no" then you get plain XML and you can edit it.
  • If you right-click on a step or even an action there is "Continue Recording from here" option. Are you talking about something like this but different?
  • Hello Cheryl, What exactly do you mean by "being blocked from a website"? What happens when you try to access blocked website? Do you get 404 error page? If you create transaction in WMP that tries to access the page and this page returns error code back, transaction fails and informs you that it can't access the page.…
  • WPM does clear cache and cookies between playbacks. However there are some things that can't be cleared and are deleted only when you close the browser and re-open it. There is a configuration value which can be used to force WPM to do that as well if needed. Can you first try how regular IE behaves in your case? If you…
  • Correct, that's intentional. If WPM does not do that then you could add actions that are unrelated to previous steps and playback would end in state when it does not have actions to get from A to B. What would you expect to happen? Can you provide some specific use case so that we can get better idea what you are trying to…
  • Hubble is for Orion website. This feature request if about SEUM/WPM taking multiple screenshots or "video" of external websites monitored by it.
  • If Citrix is not running as Java applet inside webpage then WPM can't work with it. However current Citrix versions can run as Java applets and then they can be automated using WPM.
  • If you have WPM 2.2 you can use macro in email alert action in "To" field. Macro has to look like this: ${N=SwisEntity;M=CustomProperties.YOUR_PROPERTY_NAME} So for example ${N=SwisEntity;M=CustomProperties.AlertEmailAddress}
  • How would you imagine that browser in WPM recorder gets to that starting point? Would you limit starting point only to "navigate" actions and assume that when WPM does the navigation it leads to proper starting point?
  • If you try to do the same steps in IE, then clear cache and cookies without closing IE and try to start from beginning, will it work or will is still identify previous session?
  • Hello smcguire6177, what version of SEUM/WPM do you have? Citrix is Java based application and support for Java was added in WPM 2.0.
  • Hello, Those errors and warnings in Agent log file are little confusing, some of them are not real problems (like ones with GetProcessName(), SqLite2DbPersistence and TaskManager). Real issue may be one with "failed to process plugin response" which may mean that QoE probe communication has some issues. We would need to…
  • Then the only way is to close browser process and start a new one. You can set WPM that way by following steps described in another thread - Re: WPM Browser Close after Transaction Run
  • Hello Questionario, I can help you with it but as I don't have Exchange available for testing, I would need working script from you. Script should follow the same rules as VB script for Windows Script Monitor. It should return "Message" and "Statistic" and exit with appropriate exit code. You can prepare your script…
  • Hello Questionario, I know you can't install RC version on your production environment but I just want to let you know that APM 4 contains new Powershell Monitor that allows you to execute powershell scripts directly from APM. This could solve your issues with Exchange monitoring. Maybe you could try RC on some VM to check…
  • Can you try to install APM eval on some test machine and try monitor there to see if it works for you on different computer?
  • Yes, it works in my environment. That was first thing I tried. I don't use Exchange monitoring but I can create files from APM through VBscript and powershell without issues. I'm afraid I can't help you much more with this issue. However you can try to do a workaround. Schedule Powershell script using windows scheduler.…
  • I can just see that I specified wrong path - C:\Scripts.test.txt instead fo C:\Scripts\test.txt. If you didn't realize that, try correct path. If you used correct path, then I'm out of ideas. I really don't know why Powershell don't create file when executed from APM this way. Can you just try to use your own credentials…
  • Yes, Powershell should be executed with the same permissions as calling VBscript was. Let's get back to your original powershell and VBscript because we see that pure VBscript works. Change your powershell script to look like this: Echo "test string" | Set-Content C:\Scripts.test.txt Let APM run your VBscript (that…
  • Set script for APM monitor to this simple code (I assume that C:\Scripts\test.txt is file that you try to create from Powershell): Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")Set objTextFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile("C:\Scripts\test.txt")objTextFile.WriteLine("Test")objTextFile.Close and let APM run it. If you…
  • Can you try to remove Powershell part from script and instead just try to create file directly using VBscript? If file is created, then issue is only in Powershell. If even pure VBscript won't be able to create file, it's bad. You can then try to run monitor with highest permissions possible - domain admin (if current…
  • Do you use absolute paths? If you execute script from APM, it's executed in Temp directory (c:\documents and settings\<user>\local settings\temp). Do you use the same credentials from APM as you used to execute it locally?
  • I tried your scenario on my computer and it works for me. I don't have Exchange so I slightly modified PowerShell script, but is should not affect result. PowerShell script is: Get-childitem . | Select-Object -Property Name, Mode | Export-Csv e:\Temp\script_test\test.out -notype and VBscript entered into Windows Script…
  • What about trying different output method than Export-Csv or different path. Try just to redirect output using ">" as in standard command shell. Also do you use path on target or APM server? As script is executed locally, you need path on APM server.
  • Maybe permissions issue? Check that SolarWinds Job Engine service account has permissions for target path. Other than that I really don't know.
  • I'm not sure I fully understand. Are you asking for some alternative configuration of SolarWinds products to be able to monitor nodes over VPN network? You have two options: * Install Additional Poller in network behind VPN and configure VPN to allow communication between Additional Poller and Main server and Additional…
  • Would you mind sharing your VB script with community? Maybe someone else has the same problem as you had and it can help him a lot.
  • Hello Questionario, What about trying following? On target server schedule powershell script to run every X minutes (depending on your needs) and generate file with results. Then create script monitor in APM that will just read generated file and parse it. This will have little lag but you won't have problem with running…
  • Additional pollers are described in your NPM Administration guide in chapter "Chapter 21 - Using Additional Polling Engines". Additional poller is another machine running SolarWinds products that extends original main server capacity or reach. If you have multiple networks that you want to monitor, you can install…
