The car isn't so bad. They have more room than this.

Tempting offer. I would like to visit Vermont.

We've had DPA running longer than SolarWinds has owned it. It is by far our most expensive of our SW tools. But we are purchasing / standing up SRM. So, that may change depending on the final SRM configuration.

Today's question was rough. I had to count. Luckily I had enough fingers.

You can't leave yet. We haven't heard about Weezer.

Looking forward to perfstack. SAM has been getting quite the attention around here lately with management and app teams. This should definately help.

Don't you know. Bacon doesn't have seeds. You grow bacon like you do potatoes. Plant a piece and wait for it to grow a package.

Went ahead and ordered myself a hammock. Figured the chances of winning are low and this way I get to relax in the sun instead of wondering whether I'll win one.

All green. Shortly I'll be rocking out on my Xbox.

Anyone else get this?

Wait. Wait. SQL 2017? We are still trying to get 2016 certified in our organization. I can't keep up.

Ironically, we have a CAB meeting every week to go over the upcoming changes. I was (kinda) listening to the call as I answered this question.

129,000 more points until I get the game table. At 3,000 points a month, it will be mine in 43 months. Game on!!

I think the comment is unfair to the Thwack team. They do good work every month and it was a mistake.

I have attempted multiple ways to get the script to work, but have been unsuccessful. I unfortunately am not well versed in Powershell, not to metion getting it to run inside of SAM. So, hopefully some of the more experiences thwackers on here can help. If not, I will continue to research. In general, to set it up, you…

I want to go the other way with it though. I only want data points at 1 month. Data shows up when I use 7 days, but I can't provide a monthly report. Which is why I was trying to find the raw data and build my own SQL query to give me the data per month.

You're only other option would be to build a template in SAM to bring back the install date via powershell. ([WMI]'').ConvertToDateTime((Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).InstallDate)

Looks like I have something to look forward to. They are working on moving to 6.5 in the next month or so. So, you have a month to fix things and let me know what you did. :-D

To see both the virtual side of things and the server side of things, yes. But the licensing isn't that cut and dry. I suggest talking to a sales rep to determine your licensing needs.

I can't upload the report due to security blocking uploads, but below is what I was referring to. The sample interval stops at 7 days. There is no monthly option.

You have to specify the field you want in the legend also. You have ID in the group by, but legend is blank. Slight modification to the script. I forgot to specify to select the time period so you can tie it to the data series. SELECT [data].[Name] AS [Name],[data].[ResponseTime].[ResponseTime] AS [ResponseTime],…

DPA integration is still disabled. I stopped all services last night and flushed the subscriptions (although the flush said zero rows affected). I then waited a few minutes and let the PLE climb and started back half of my pollers and let them run and then the rest. The PLE once again tanked. So, I stopped all services,…

I did not. I will have to wait until after hours to take anything down. I'll give it a shot tonight and see what happens. On a side note, I noticed the DPA integration module is at 11, but our DPA server are at 10.2. Does anyone know if this will cause a conflict? We plan on upgrading to 11 next weekend.

In further research, it looks as if when you report on Node, there is no direct link to the Group Name field that you need (or at least I can't find it). Therefore, it looks like you'll need a SQL / SWQL query to link the two together. Unfortunately, I don't have access to our SQL server to find the correct fields. To get…

What does License Manager look like from the Web Console? Settings -> All Settings -> License Manager. The old standalone license manager is not longer supported / valid.

That might be the difference. We haven't upgraded yet. Still at 5.5

I just had the same problem today on some MySQL servers I was trying to add. The error turned out that I needed to specify the port in the connection string. Change the default port for the MySQL template - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support

While I haven't tried it before, you should be able to key on the Last Time Up field under Component. However, since the date field is a static day / time, to set up the alert, you would need to do a custom sql script to determine the number of days between now and the Last Up.

You can create a Top-N widget in VMAN, querying on vm.internal.dateCreated. This is not the actual creation date, but the date that it was added to VMAN. So, all servers that were existing when you installed VMAN will report as the date VMAN was stood up. Ongoing, all VMs will report the date they were created assuming you…
