As a suggestion - it would be handy if you could set primary WMI credentials to the template so that these are used by default and any nodes which use other credentials could be manually set to override? Is it worth putting this through as an enhancement request?

The node is managed by SNMP, yes, however I would have imagined that the credentials I provided as part of the Sonar Discovery would have been used for the applications I selected when running the discovery? Without this then there is always a manual process to update this regardless of the ability to mass discover. Thanks…

Thanks Guys, I finally managed to get 53 of my hosts to allow me to add Scheduled Tasks through Sonar Discovery by removing all SNMP credentials from the discovery, leaving only the Windows credentials in the scan. What is now causing me problems is that these credentials (the ones psecified in the discovery) are not being…

Thanks muchly, i have upvoted this and hope it gets some attention from the community anyone reading this please upvote this, i am sure it must be required for many other service providers!

Hi ttl, I wasn't aware of this prior to upgrade so yes it did come as a shock. The new syntax takes some getting used to also. One other thing i have noticed since documenting this initially is that my alerts use different criteria for failed / faulty components. I have now had to go through each alert i have configured…

The original discovery was SNMP / ICMP but some have still come back as WMI nodes. Do they ALL need to be SNMP to be able to pick this up? If so, what is the easiest way to move nodes from WMI to SNMP?

Hi aLTeReGo I had tried this but don't get the same view as you, i see this: I can't see any options to add events or the columns which you have selected above. I recently upgraded so believe i am on the latest version, not sure if this makes a difference?

Excellent, thanks for this - couldnt find the swagger link anywhere. Kicking myself now for the ResumeAlerts endpoint! Interestingly i seem to now have hit a bug / issue with AD authentication to the API but working around with a local Orion account for now.

Still no luck i am afraid. The documentation i can find here doesnt help much: https://github.com/solarwinds/OrionSDK/wiki Even if you try to trawl the API with postman you can't really get far and there isnt any detailed documentation of swagger available that i can see. Anyone from the Solarwinds team help us out here?

This is the error i get when trying to apply: Each of these components is a windows service monitor for the service you see in the left column. As i say, this works for all other physical servers in our environment AND when using the Windows Service Wizard to poll the server I can see these services on the box! Thanks

Thanks aLTeReGo, I have just ran a Sonar Discovery against all of our existing Windows nodes however when i go through the results i do not get the option to add Scheduled Tasks on the application tab, it only picks up SQL Server: Am i missing something to be able to add these all at once? Regards Rob

Thanks Alter, This is another thing that would have been handy to know upfront before the upgrade, not sure if it was detailed in any notes i could have swatted up on before going ahead? Cheers Rob

Hi Alter, Sorry i didnt see your reply - we actually have a mixture of all the above HBAs in our environment (HP / Emulex / QLogic)! Has there been any progress on this enhancement request? Thanks Rob

Excellent advise, thanks once again aLTeReGo. In order to reduce the number of licenses / polls that we need to use to monitor our DB estate then is there an alternative to the AppInsight for SQL template? For example I might like to leave our production instances being monitored by the AppInsight monitor template but then…

Thanks Alter, this is exactly what i need! Just trying to put this in place but can't see the option to get to the "data source picker" you have screen shotted above, i just get the below screen when editing the resource: Also - when i have added this to the generic application page, will this need to be customised by…

Thanks aLTeReGo, I am just trying to recreate these alerts manually as export / import doesn't work (with no errors i can see). Am i right in thinking that all of the variables have changed? A lot of our syntax doesn't look correct and when i try to find the variables I used in the past these look very different. For…

Hi All Has anyone had a chance to review this? Anyone else seeing similar behaviour? Regards Rob

Hi Todd, Is there any reason why you need to link off to a seperate page for this information? Whilst we don't use SAM as our CMDB we do hold a lot of information in the form of custom properties, such as application owner / operational contacts etc. These can just be clear text. As for troubleshooting steps for each…
