I would love to see this. as msawyer did, I created a custom SWQL query that I added to the nodes view to see the start and end date for the unmanaged node: SELECT Unmanaged, UnmanageFrom, UnManageUntil FROM Orion.Nodes Where NodeID=${NodeID} and Unmanaged=1

I completely agree. I would love to be able to ignore those "Optimize Start Menu Cache Files" scheduled tasks and potentially any other task that I'm not interested in getting alerted on. It seems like aLTeReGo's suggestion would work, as there are tasks in the Microsoft Folder under the Task Scheduler Library that…

Excellent. Thanks for the quick response. 

This would be nice. I currently have a monitor that runs a website check every 24 hours. If I do any maintenance on the servers, like stopping the services, then the schedule gets all messed up. it would be nice to have the ability to schedule it rather than fire it off manually at 8am when the schedule gets messed up.

Would the SAM agent also allow for monitoring using PowerShell?

This may not be Jason's intention, but having a default set to monitors for a specific vendor type would be helpful. I add the same 3 monitors to all my windows servers when I add them (A/V, SCCM Client and Windows monitors), so it would be nice if they could get automatically added to all windows servers. 

Yeah, that's what I was expecting. I had talked to support a while back and that's basically what they said, but I was hoping that there might be someone out that that had a quicker process. It took me 2 hours to run minor updates for NPM, SAM and NCM across my Main, Poller and Web servers the other day. I wish there was a…

Support turned me on to an easier way to perform multiple upgrades. If you use the Additional Poller and Web Bundles you can save yourself time on the Additional Poller and Web Servers. I originally though that those bundles were just an easy way to download multiple products at the same time. It turns out that these…

From what I have read (SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: How do SNMP and WMI polling compare?), WMI takes 5 times longer to poll and likely uses up more resources on your pollers. I would expect that installing agents on your WMI nodes would reduce the polling load on your pollers, leaving them more resources to poll other…
