Two things come to mind: 1) Depending on your downstream settings this could be effected, so make sure they're replica servers otherwise you will need to approve or potentially publish the third party updates directly to the downstream WSUS server. 2) Make sure they have the WSUS publishing certificate as with your client…

Looks like after synchronizing I'm seeing about the same thing. I doubt this was intentional, so your best bet is to make sure that Support is aware and they can advise or get it resolved from there.

That error code appears to relate to a connection error: Error codes and patches for WSUS servers - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support The attempt to connect to the server failed. You'll want to check general connectivity to the WSUS server. Can it ping the hostname, correct port is put in the config? Anything…

I'm doing this from a failing memory, but what I remember tends to cause these issues with SCCM is the classifications settings. Most third party updates are classified as Tools. Most companies don't have that category set by default in SCCM and therefore aren't synchronizing the third party updates. I believe these steps…

I don't see a connector for it, so you may want to reach out to Support on this one: Submit a request to SolarWinds for a new LEM connector - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support

Nothing immediately jumps out at me to get a simple correlation for what you're looking at, here are a few permutations that came to mind: * What you're suggesting would involve a sourceaccount = *username* vs *user-admin* type of correlation which would be several rules or lines of individual correlation at least. * Using…

I had this open as I was curious to the answer. I'm also not a powershell scientist, but playing around with it, I think I figured it out. I had this big elaborate post, but realized how I was writing out my variables was the problem on the script side. I wasn't getting the expected outputs because I was able to get it to…

There are several reports depending on the type of detail you're after, but to my recollection you may not be able to include a chart with them directly from Patch Manager. If you want overall percentages of 35 machines have the package installed out of 50 total then you can run a Windows Server Update Service - Percent…

I didn't go through every item, but the two big ones that stick out to me are: Your table references in the "FROM" section and the joins will need to be updated, usually you should just be able to drop the "Orion." portion, but you would want to check against the database/schema to make sure that's exactly right. As they…

If I'm understanding you correctly you're not getting to this screen? We just updated to HF2 yesterday, so I don't believe it would be HF2 related. Have you tried a different browser/incognito mode? Do you see anything error-wise in the C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\Logs\Orion\OrionWeb.log files? If you're still looking for…

To clarify mesverrum's answer, what they are talking about is the archiveconfig settings which have to do with backing up the data in the database. The files that appear in your screenshot are the backupconfig files which back up only the settings such as users, rules, groups, etc and NOT the data. Similarly to his answer,…

Depending on what you're limiting, this sounds more like a use for Account Limitations: Limit users to specific network areas in the Orion Platform Success Center Create limitations based on custom properties in the Orion Platform Sorry for the multiple links, didn't find a good one that seemed to cover everything I wanted…

The error appears to be just a generic Installation Failure, but I did see this in the WindowsUpdate.log: 2018-06-05 09:34:36:712 1100 2418 Agent WARNING: Failed to evaluate Installed rule, updateId = {00004850-0000-0000-5350-000000081891}.1, hr = 8004106C Are you able to install any other updates? Have you tried to…

This is the only screenshot I see in the KB that shows the configuration piece, you will want to launch the SolarWinds Log and Event Manager MSSQL Auditor Configuration tool: It has an error there as well that you can disregard, but this was the only screenshot I saw in the KB. The tool includes instructions for targeting…

Actually, I can't think of an instance where the Patch Manager Agent itself initiates the communication. I may not be correct with that, but I know that through Group Policy you can configure the Windows Update Agent to reach out on a schedule, that's basically how that works, but the Patch Manager Agent is there to help…

Your script is fine from what I can see, but Orion needs you to tell it what the outputs are. Change your bottom line to: write-host "Statistic: $count" And give that a try.

There's a lot of potential things that I could see stopping this. Do you get any messages when you try to add them via discovery or do they just not get added to the discovery for import? Do you have multiple APEs or just the one server? Is there anything in the logs (C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\Discovery Engine) that…

Hello pmaldonato, Firstly, if you are using Update Management or the Update Management wizard to push the updates you can export the task details to get the status on the updates that were installed. This can be added to a task to happen automatically if you are using these tasks. Otherwise you can run one of the Computer…

I don't see a reference to that error, are you able to provide a screenshot of what you're seeing or a log snippet? Shocko is right, you'll want to isolate Patch Manager from WSUS for now. One thing that comes to mind is checking online for updates. You don't have to install from Microsoft, but are you able to click the…

It might help to see a sample of your script and a screenshot of the Get Script Output section you're seeing, but what comes to mind from my own adventures is that if you've previously returned statistics (1-10) and are now trying to return new statistics (say, 2 - 11) then it can give you issues with that as you would be…

You're definitely on track for one of the things that you would want to check. I would start by creating a test event and then searching for it in nDepth. This serves to verify that the event is actually arriving to the LEM and can help you narrow your focus from there. For example, I had a test account that was overdue…

That might be a setting you have for NTA, check: * Click Settings > All Settings. * Under Product Specific Settings, click NTA Settings. * Scroll down to DNS and Netbios Resolution. Here's an explanation of the options: DNS resolution options - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support You might have it disabled there.

Is this from your Enterprise view or a report? If you're looking at Enterprise -> Update Services -> <Your WSUS Server> if this information is not getting updated it means your machines are not contacting WSUS. If this is a specific report (and you can let us know which one) then it's likely an issue with Inventory. That…

Haven't played with docker in Windows, but ultimately I imagine it's going to need to work about the same as a regular Windows machine would or it won't work (I didn't see anything specific to Docker support for the SEM agent). So firstly, if you want to look at the host name sending logs, you may need to check the details…

Hello bobt, I hadn't inventoried for printers before today, so thank you for the question! Short answer: The default inventory template doesn't include printers by default. Long answer: You will need to modify the default inventory and save it as a template to use (this may mean that you need to re-set up some of your…

You will need to review the event in nDepth and choose the correct field to populate the $User field in the e-mail template. For example, if you're looking at NewGroupMember events you will likely want to use NewGroupMember.SourceAccount instead of NewGroupMember.DestinationAccount for the $User parameter in your e-mail.
