  • Haven't created a case. Regarding the WMI providers, we can see the data in perfmon, so I don't think there is an issue there. For 5.2 vs 5.5r2, unfortunately the Win 2012 server was upgraded to Win 2012 after the SAM upgrade, so I am sure if the behavior changed or not. I did however find out that the node was not deleted…

  • That pretty much eliminates the option to use WMI for us ( since disk failures are probably the most common hardware failure). Any chance there could be a "Get hardware information via SNMP" checkbox?

  • Two bugs we have noticed when polling a Windows 2012 server with WMI polling in RC2: * Hardware health isn't showing up for our Dell servers. Health shows up as an option in List Resources, but the detail page doesn't show any hardware info * On Windows 2012 teaming with WMI monitoring, the team interfaces shows up but no…

  • The problem is that this isn't limited to out of date firmware, but also in includes non-certified drives (i.e. Intel SSDs).

  • That is what I tried at first but what getting access errors. I also tried just system32. Eventually I gave up, stuck them in C:\ , and just imported them using the complete path within the script. I was probably running into some UAC stuff since SYSTEM's access looked right -- didn't feel like dealing with it.

  • It might be an option. Ideally the updates would send some sort of trap though. Also, this utility is not appealing to me at first glance because: 1) It fails to connect to the Orion Server with my credentials and dumps a stack trace. 2) The word Utility is spelled wrong as "Utilility" which doesn't exactly inspire…

  • My research so far has Ended up dry... So for now I wrote this ugly hack: Select '<b>' + n.Caption + '<b><br>' + '<img src="/Orion/APM/Controls/ChartImage.aspx?ChartName=MonMMAStatisticData&FontSize=1&Height=0&NetObject=AM%3a' + CONVERT(nvarchar(30),ac.ID) + '&NetObjectID=AM%3a' + CONVERT(nvarchar(30),ac.ID) +…
