This is already supported. If you go to the player installation directory (by default: c:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\SEUM\Player) you will find there SolarWinds.SEUM.AgentDomainConfigurationTool.exe which allows you to configure player to use domain accounts for playback.

Hello klinejw, the functionality to unmanage transaction during the specified window is already present in WPM 2.0. You just need to use unmanage scheduling utility to define when the entity should be unmanaged.

It seems that we've misunderstood each other. What I meant was to use Unmanage Scheduling Utility, which can be found in Start Menu in All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Advanced Features > Unmanage Scheduling Utility. You can use this tool to create an unmanage task which can be then scheduled for execution using the…

Did the authentication dialog pop up when you were re-recording the transaction? Because this seems that the credentials were not captured. If you want you can escalate this issue with your sales representative so we can take a look at it directly.

I will need a little bit more information. Where exactly are you seeing the access denied message, could you post a screenshot if possible? Did you re-record your transactions (the ones for external website) after disabling the Integrated Windows Authentication?

Hello Simon, there are no specific patches required for the WPM to run. We are currently investigating your case. Can we keep the communication only through the support case so it is not spread across several channels. Thanks, Lukas

I forgot to mention something, if you will be able to pinpoint a request which is causing this issue let me know and I'll send you a message with information how to setup player configuration in order to ignore this one specific request. This approach should be significantly safer than lowering thresholds.

This timeout is used for wait for each pending request. So simply put if you have some long running request on page (long poll requests, keep alive requests) we wait for this request specified amount of time to finish. You can see if your page has these kind of request for example in Internet Explorer developers console.…

I assume that the access denied message is in transaction status. This is caused by a fact, that your proxy most probably uses pass-thru authentication. When you are recording the transaction IE authenticates you automatically. But the player uses different user accounts for playback and thus is not able to authenticate…

dihris, as we are relying on the Internet Explorer during the recording and the playback and Internet Explorer doesn't allow you to create the POST request to page directly. I'm afraid that this kind of recording is currently not possible. The only way to workaround this I can think of right now is the one I suggested…

Does the Orion Server location reports this error? If so then make sure that "Bypass proxy server for local addresses" check box in proxy settings is checked.

Hello rmyerspin, as aLTeReGo wrote, SEUM version 1.5 has support for ${ScreenshotUrl} macro. The macro contains relative URL so you will still need to specify your server address. Let me give you a brief example: <img src="">192.168.40.156:8787/${ScreenshotUrl}" /> You can also specify width of the screenshot image by…

Hello Rishab, if you do not have active maintenance, your sales representative should be able to provide you with link to evaluation of RC version. Regards, Lukas

Sorry for the late reply. Please check if you have installed WPM 2.0.1 Hotfix 3, you can find it in the customer portal. It addresses an issue with unmanage functionality and it might help in your case.

Hello, there is an already existing alert named "Alert me when a group goes down" so enabling that alert should help. But if you want to specify alert only for specific groups as I can see in your screenshot, you have the condition backwards. In order to make it work it should look similar to this: Also by default if group…

Hello davebugg, the version of the Unmanage Utility seems to be correct, what is the version of SEUM/WPM you are using? Because the support for unmanage was added in WPM 2.0.

You don't need to stop the IIS nor WPM services, IIS should pick up the new files automatically. The first load of the page after you replace those file may take a bit longer.

Hello dihris, a best way to simulate this behavior would be to create a simple page with form on it which would upon submitting sent POST data to your site. You could then record the navigation to this page, click on the submit button and then use text verify feature. This created page must be accessible from all playback…

I'm afraid that currently the All transactions resource supports only simple grouping (by frequency/location/recording/status). If you would like to see a similar functionality as in the All Nodes resource please share your idea in the space.

The alert actions are not by default executed for unmanaged entities. This setting however can be suppressed, even though I don't recommend to do that (because it will affect all defined alerts). If you want to suppress this behavior, you will need to update one setting in the Orion database. In the dbo.Settings table find…

If you enable integration with NPM, then you should get almost all information that is available via VMan SWIS in Orion (just be aware that VMan SWIS instance only provides limited amount of data from VMan). The only exception I believe is information about LUNs and NASes.

Hi, are you sure you are using correct username and password? Because this error shows up when VMan is unable to authenticate the account. If you are trying to log in using domain account I'd recommend to try VMan account instead, or you can try to create a new user account and use it for connection.

Hello bluefunelemental, you need to use SWQL Studio from Orion SDK to connect to Virtualization Manager SWIS Service. You can find the download links in theOrion SDK forum. It comes with several example scripts. Lukas

I'm glad to help. As for your questions. Yes WPM can be installed alongside NPM, if you install WPM on the same server (and the same database) as other SolarWinds products, it integrates into web console as a new tab same as SAM, NTA and most of other SolarWinds products. There is no limitation to the number of WPM players…

Hi as Chris wrote you don't need to remove the agents, so let me shed some light on what the warning says. The virtualization polling is done through the top level entity, which is usually a VCenter or a standalone host. In order to utilize the new VMan poller on Orion, the top level entity must not be polled using agent.…

Strange, can you check logs in c:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\Logs\VIM\Jobs for following: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: This operation is restricted by the administrator - 'vpxd.stats.maxQueryMetrics'.? In case you can see such errors there, it should be caused by this query metrics limitation. If that is the…

Hi, these look like duplicates of the correct ones. Please open a support ticket, they should be able to help you.

Can you give us more details on what features are your users missing? It would help us in knowing what features that are currently only in appliance are commonly used and we could prioritize those for some future releases of the Orion module.

Just a note, if you limit the number of the worker processes to 1, it will also limit to 1 the number of transactions that the player can run in parallel. This may be fine if you have player playing just a small number of transactions (you will see the player load spike, though). But generally it is better to provide…

Hello, the player load is not related to number of CPUs and is computed by the following formula (simplified): player_load = number_of_running_playbacks/total_number_of_playback_workers*100 + transactions_waiting_for_playback the transactions_waiting_for_playback value is based on sum of wait times of the transactions on…
