WOW

How this is not part of SRM is beyond me. To say that a monitoring for a particular product is supported, but then we are left blind to hardware failures seems like "support" is disingenuous at best.

Same boat here. I've also seen some interesting wrapping along with these font sizes and spacing (I've opened a ticket):

This would be superb as I can never guarantee the afterhours employee will remember to unmanage/remanage the node and I can't always line up with the work they're doing with the scheduler. Schedule them both, cut out the afterhours employee !

Yes, please! Even if it is more complicated than this in order to keep it out of the way of the users that don't need it - this prevents us from crippling WMI aspects by staying on SNMP for Dell disk health, or from jumping through weird scripting hoops to get additional information for which ever node polling we are not…

Did you get a solution for the scheduled reporting? I'm seeing something similar.

Also as a general suggestion, I would love to see PIVOT functionality written into SWQL. Its the one major annoying thing that is missing - I work around it with various JOINs, but PIVOT would be so much more to the point and useful for those custom query dashboard resources.

The new UI changes in Orion with NPM 12 in particular seem to include a lot of white space and larger fonts (where I would actually prefer smaller text in a listing). Any ability to control would be welcomed.

Love it and love SWQL - have been customizing with it on dashboards and reports for years now. Also... (pronounced “swick-le”) - who knew?

Thanks for the assist, but unfortunately the data that I'm getting in Asset Inventory is far less verbose - hence my looking at attempting to pull via WMI. I have absolutely no idea why this would be the case, unless it's solely because this (like most) are SNMP nodes - and I'm limited from switching to a WMI node lest I…

Another option would be if you could monitor Hardware and OS via different polling methods - https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2836

This is even more critical as there are some aspects of SolarWinds that are setting timezones in the background. I discovered that some of my report scheduling was off after the shift from DST to Standard. Turns out that the Frequencies table in the database was populated with different timezone settings, including the…

Which makes sense - but is unfortunate. Also hence this request: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2836 It just stinks that I can't manually pull one WMI text string from one field to work around having to choose between WMI and SNMP.

You found an option or just this request?

Yet another option could be to include an agent plug-in that utilizes IPMI or SNMP locally, but just for hardware so the agent can be deployed to Dell machines providing both the usual WMI stats, but then with the plug-in the necessary hardware information from OpenManage.

Logically, this seems broken at the moment IMHO. Admin can see all nodes on Manage Nodes screen - account limitations to a department - admin cannot edit properties for a node in that department. Brings up an error page.

Confirmed as bug. Tech is checking JIRA and will file if it's not already been reported.

Yes - instead of hardcoding the parameters of each report, users could select the defined parameter when running the report. Fairly standard in SQL reporting.

Exactly. This works as you would think for Nodes since the Custom properties and the NodesData separated in the database schema. Standard users can edit custom node properties using the dashboard resource provided. Application custom properties are also in their own table - so I would assume the same could be done there,…

You can filter the items listed with different options. I used VolumeType ='Fixed Disk'.

I can't say for sure, but I believe that the resource you picture requires the ability to fully edit the application, same as the same resource does on the node. For nodes, the dashboard resource exists "Edit Custom Node Property" (pictured, my property is "Ticket_Number"): Since the nodes table was separated into…

It doesn't appear that it's possible with UnmanageDialog.ascx any longer (or at least the setting has moved somewhere).

Alongside of this - modify the database schema in SolarWinds to allow for logging a matrix of data instead of just one result. Would be much value added with little additional resources.
