There's still a lot to be done to make the web client a serious alternative, but thank you for letting us know.

Hello aannavar, I assume that the thick client will be supported less and less in the future. I haven't worked much with the web client yet, but I have the feeling that it is more complicated to use than the thick client. For example, when you search for an object, you always have the search bar at the top in the thick…

Up to now, I have only used the web interface to generate reports. What I have seen so far in terms of group and user administration seemed much less intuitive than in the fat client. Unfortunately, Solarwinds seems to ignore the fat client and only enhance the web interface in the future. If you are missing functions, you…

Hello Christian, if a data owner wants to remove a user from a group, then the data owner needs both the right to edit the group and the user. I have never worked with the web interface, but I think it should work there as well as in the fat client. Kind regards Jonas

Danke für das nette Angebot, mein Problem hat sich damit aber gerade erledigt. :-) Nach Installation des aktuellen Updates habe ich nur überprüft, ob ich den Kollektornamen verändern kann - was nicht funktioniert, wie du es richtig beschrieben hast. Ich habe die Skriptausführung über den Alarm selbst gar nicht getestet,…

Die ursprüngliche Frage war ja, ob man einen AD-Scan per Script anstoßen kann. Du hattest die Idee geäußert, hierfür app8ManCommand.exe zu verwenden, auch wenn es eine inoffizielle Lösung ist, die jederzeit abgeschaltet werden könnte. Ich hatte ein entsprechendes Skript gebaut, welches bei manueller Ausführung auch prima…

I tried to change the name directly in the collector overview. However, all entries of the main collector (ARM server itself) are grayed out: For the second collector the name can be changed without any problems:

FYI: I just installed version 2022.4, but I still can't change the name of the collector.

Hi, maybe this will help you: documentation.solarwinds.com/.../add-fs-specific-change-configuration.htm See section "Configure automatic list rights management".

I'm afraid I have to ask: How is the report generated in the first place? In the ARM web interface via "Analyze" it is possible to generate a task overview, but here only tasks are taken into account which were executed / scheduled via the web interface. Since we primarily work with the fat client, this report is not very…

Hi Mike, yes, we use one of the dataowner roles for our helpdesk. It often happens that tasks are scheduled for a later date. For example, when an employee changes departments for the next month, various changes to the AD object are scheduled. Unfortunately, only the helpdesk user who scheduled the tasks can see them. To…

Thanks for asking, unfortunately I have not been able to update yet. I will keep you informed.

Thanks for the hint! We still have 2021.4.2 installed, but I will upgrade to 2022 soon.

Thanks for the suggestion, I had already tried that. Unfortunately, the same error still occurs. By the way, the error message refers to the FQDN of the collector. But in the collector overview in the ARM configuration the collector is only set up under its simple name, not as FQDN. The collector is the ARM server itself.…

I have created a script that triggers the AD scan. When I run the script manually, it works fine. However, when the script is run as a result of an account lockout alert, the execution always fails with the message that the collector is unreachable. Do you have any idea what the problem could be?

Thank you very much, I will take a closer look!

In some circumstances, it does matter. Example: I create a group named "Test" via the ARM Group Wizard, which assigns read rights to the resource "Resource1". The description field of the group "Test" says something like "8man://lD//\<path>//<somekindofID>". If I give another person read permissions on "Resource1" now,…

Did you accidentally change the content of the "description" field? It should look something like this: 8man://lD//\<path>//<somekindofID>

Hello Norbert, thank you, I will contact the support. Kind regards Jonas

Hello Norbert, in the ARM rich client in the tab "Logbook" you can see "Changes to group policies": In the right pane you can see more info who adjusted which value in which group policy: So if I change a group policy in our domain via gpmc.msc, the change is shown here. I assume that the ARM gets the information from the…

It's a bug: Hello Jonas, Thank you for contacting SolarWinds Support. Our development team has investigated your issue and has identified a bug in our product. We have added this bug to our list of known defects and will prioritize it for future release according to its severity and impact on our customer base. All feature…

I have opened a support ticket with Solarwinds and keep you informed.

Seems to work, thank you very much!

Hi Paul, thanks for the reply. When I delete "Everyone" from the blacklist, the "Apply" button at the top right remains grayed out. If I exit the view using the "Back Arrow" in the top left and then go back to the blacklist, the "Everyone" group is re-added immediately. What I notice: In the blacklist of the "global file…

I would like to use this switch too. Where can I find it?

Thanks, Paul!

Thank you!

Thanks Allmecht, I will try it like this. Best regards Jonas

Hello Allmecht, I do understand that. Nevertheless it would be nice if you could decide yourself if groups should be deleted or not. Also I don't understand why the ARM deletes the global groups but not the local groups, since the local groups are also "empty groups" once the corresponding global group is deleted. Because…

Hi Björn, an employee wanted to know which user accounts are members of certain security groups. In addition, she wanted to know which of these accounts are deactivated and which are activated. To provide her with this information, we could have opened the security groups in Active Directory and taken screenshots of the…
