Good Morning, I'm not seeing the LEM Upgrade ISO for 6.5.0 in my support portal? Only see the 6.4.0 version available:
-
It's not available in VMan Orion as of 8.2:
-
To allow an Orion account to use the VMan management functions, in addition to having a Domain account that has admin rights to the vCenter, you need to specifically enable the features for that Orion account under "Virtual Infrastructure Monitor Settings" in the Edit Account page:

My technique for a critical ticket is as follows: 1. Open support ticket online. 2. Upload diags to leapfile (if less than 2GB - if larger will need an FTP link from support). 3. Call support and enter existing case file number. Hope you get picked up within 60 minutes. Given the phone queue is the stated priority I expect…

It's 12.3

My only concern is that we had pretty bad experiences with the Storage Manager AIX agents and high cpu util. So our Unix team will be looking at the AIX agent very closely for signs of misbehavior.

You should be able to download the additional poller installers from the support portal (as opposed to downloading via the url link in the primary installer packages).

Thanks for this aLTeReGo. I do have a question on how HA manages DNS during failover. Let's say we have these servers in a single subnet configuration: Primary+additional pollers poller1 poller2 poller3 and the following HA pollers poller4 poller5 poller6 I understand we can use the IP of poller1 as the VIP, but the…

Thanks for the suggestions. We don't monitor the loopbacks or mini ports and each of our three pollers is pretty evenly balanced with approx 12,000 elements each. We are on physical blades so would need to upgrade the hardware to bump up the CPU, currently running dual sockets with 12 cores each per poller, 64GB of RAM.
-
Interesting they mention "Standard Polling Thoughput") license for the additional polling engine line item. Was there ever a version of an additional polling engine that had a "high polling throughput"? I'd much rather have a single polling engine that can handle 24,000 elements than add an APE to my existing pollers…
-
Thanks for the info, that is disappointing news. All our pollers are sitting at around 70% CPU util with approx 12,000 elements monitored on each, I can't imagine that deploying additional polling engines on these would result in cost effective scaling? Unless adding an additional 12,000 elements with an additional polling…

Oh sweet: http://solarwinds/Orion/Admin/OrionServiceManager.aspx Thank you to whoever made this, saves me having to RDP into multiple pollers for health check

OK I'm a little confused about HA and licnesing per-pool in the post above. According to aLTeReGo HA is licensed per server. So in the case of us with one primary and two additional pollers, the cost for HA licensing is USD$7k*3 = $21k.
-
Is that with 12.0.1? So we will be able to monitor 48,000 elements per poller instead of the current 12,000 element limit?
-
Two of the unmanage behavior improvements are listed twice:
-
To those running the SRM 6.6 RC, does it have support forInfinidat Infinibox ?
-
Diags have been attached to Case # 841562.

Hi Lubomir, So our FlashSVC which is on ver 7.4 is showing performance data OK, however for our other SVC that we have added to the beta (our largest), we are having some issues (we also tend to have intermittent collection problems on this SVC with STM Profiler). Looking at the Events in 6.2 Beta: 7/23/2015 2:06 PM…

Running the Beta of 6.2 SRM Orion in our Test environment and the good news is that this release works with SVC version 7.4 (where STM Profiler doesn't). Capacity has collected, still waiting on the performance data. However, one thing I noticed is that SRM appears to only spawn one Job Engine worker thread, is this…

"I have two locations set up, one running 10 transactions, and the other with 13. I can't believe either one of these could possibly be loaded down based and the quantity and simplicity of the transactions. I'm also seeing one of the locations go over 130% Current Player Load quite often, with really no explanation why. My…

On the phone with technical support, fingers crossed they can help me. They couldn't get a hold of customer service folks either.

When I've experienced this issue it's because a firewall between the pollers and remote sites is only configured to allow traffic for say Poller A and Poller B, and since that rule was configured I've stood up Poller C and assigned that remote site/node to it. Fix: have network assign the same firewall rule(s) that exist…

"Say you are polling every 120seconds - which is the default polling, If a node goes down at the very start of the 120 seconds it has to wait 120 seconds before it gets polled again. When it gets polled again and does not respond Orion puts the node into warning status and then goes into Fast Polling where it polls the…

I haven't encountered the appstack issue but I was disturbed to find that once I installed the Orion SRM (Storage Manager) module it added itself to all the Orion user accounts I have configured. I would have thought an exclude (i.e. don't do anything) until I specifically add it to an account would be the best way to go.
-
"Playback interval must be between 60 seconds and 365 days." So minimum time interval is once every 60 seconds. And yes, you can run a report on the response times per step and in total.
-
We are using a 500GB volume that is hosted on an IBM XIV behind an SVC, fiber attached, it's presented to the server as an NTFS drive and we haven't run into issues yet (only been up for about a day so far with NTA 4.0).
-
Can't speak specifically to the Netpath plug-in but you would generally use the agent initialized method when there is a firewall blocking a server initialized request to the agent/server from the poller.

Have you selected "Asset Inventory" in List Resources when adding nodes? That should grab the serial number of the server, in addition to installed software, details will be shown under the ASSET INVENTORY tab on the left side when viewing a Node's details. Also the number of cores and threads and cpu type, example below:
-
Make sure the following daemons are running: snmpd, aixmibd, hostmibd, and snmpmibd You should then be able to see CPU, memory and disk volumes when you do a "List Resources".
