You can absolutely script it. But if you don't want to service match names, and don't need the start/stop abilities of the service (which powershell won't have either unless you script an alert action anyway) you can just monitor the process for SQL server. 

So, the hard part is knowing that it's at a purple screen but let's say that if down for x amount of time or some VMWare event ID triggers and alert and you want to get that data. The best Orion can do is trigger a script that automate the process in the article below. I don't have a script written that does it but give it…

Did you mean to ask this here: (1) SolarWinds Service Desk (SWSD) - THWACK or here: (1) Web Help Desk (WHD) - THWACK (solarwinds.com) You might get better responses in the specific product forum. 

I believe that function provides data to VMan. You will want to configure SNMP and add the host that way. If you have SAM, you can add templates to pull in more data, there are some items below that might help. And of course, SAM allows you to script monitors as well, but you would have to build your own. 

I love the ability. I am now recreating custom properties to work well with this feature.

Can you start a ws-man session from the polling engine to the exchange server manually?

Are you using the Log Analyzer piece? I would try to figure out what can be dropped before its written. Success Center (solarwinds.com) 

I would store them for a shorter amount of time: Article Detail (solarwinds.com)

I so bet Adam gave exactly what you want, no alerts on the E: drive, but if you really don't want to collect data, you can remove those volumes. If it's too many to handle manually, use the SDK. GitHub - solarwinds/OrionSDK: SDK for the SolarWinds Orion platform, including tools, documentation, and samples in PowerShell,…

I assume you are pulling it into a powershell monitor? If so, I think you need to put the into the other credential store to be seen. For stuff like this, we actually use code in the script to pull it straight out of our credential vault as it runs. 

OK, testing completed, and everything worked. I have 2 additional web servers, those don't run HA, it's basically just DNS that points to one of them. I have main polling engines in an HA pool. Before testing I could sign into either additional webserver by Hostname, or DNS alias, via SAML and it would always send us back…

We use additional web servers, and when we set up the SAML auth application in Azure AD we specified all the servers and the DNS alias. Any server there can call Azure Auth via SAML, and it completes the transaction by sending back to the DNS alias. We only have 1 active web server at a time currently, but it doesn't…

I don't believe that SAML auth should care as long as you have it configured to the correct DNS that hits the active webserver. I use additional webservers, but the sites are still active on my main polling engine. Let me test a failover and see. 

What port is it running on? I know if you want to check ldaps just changing the port to 636 works. If updating the port doesn't work, then you may ahve to query the local store to gather cert data with something like powershell. @ me in the thread if you need an example of that monitor (I think the one we wrote sums up all…

I don't believe you can, although I agree it would help. If you make a Feature Request, I will vote it up. 

How would you do it without Orion? Orion may be able to execute commands to trigger other products, but doesn't have SMS messaging software built in. 

What processes are consuming CPU, and how many elements are on it? Is polling completing? Dashboards like this can help figure it out what's out of the norm: (+) SolarWinds Orion Platform Status Overview - Modern Dashboards - The Orion Platform - THWACK

Correct, the color does not mean its broken, you can still use it. It simply doesn't match your search string. If you don't like it, remove the text from the search field. 

They gray items are available to you, they just don't meet your search criteria of "Orion Dashboard instances"

I think if you are on the latest version your information service moved to a new port, and that will allow you to change out the certificate Orion uses. They moved the SolarWinds REST Endpoint to port 17774 I think, and that should allow this to happen, but I couldn't find any documentation. I would ask support for how to…

Do you have Log Analyzer installed? Look at the text at the bottom of the website

Like this? Create wireless heat maps for NPM (solarwinds.com)

Yes, it can be any of those. See: Configure automatic login in the SolarWinds Platform You will want to look at how you are configured to troubleshoot. 

You can use select all, but at that volume it pays to be good at scripting

Use can also use the "manage enities" or "manage nodes" pages, just select the nodes and set the state to Maintenace mode

I don't have time to iron it for for you but in SWQL you will be able to find the underscores (maybe twice if the state/city length is too variable to get the start and then again for the end.
