2020.2 is looking like another amazing release, folks. Nice work. Thanks for all of the focus on fixing security vulns and addressing so many of our feature requests!

I also saw the ".NET 4.8 not present" warning on the deployment health checks, even though we manually confirmed that it was installed on all servers. Our last upgrade (2019.4) proceeded fine in spite of this. In our case, (I am 90% sure) the reason that the checks failed is because our security policies disable the Remote…

Can you provide any information about where in this process this is failing for you?

After you update SAM to the 2020.2 release, you'll be able to use WinRM for monitoring applications (including AppInsight for SQL). Using WinRM sends WMI queries through HTTPS ports 5985 or 5986 directly (and is secured on both). This avoids the legacy approach of using WMI with DCOM and RPC--which is where that large span…

I haven't created Teams alerts in Orion yet, but it sounds like you could use the same strategy that works for using custom email recipients through variables in alert configurations. Here's how we did it: * Created PrimaryContact and SecondaryContact custom properties on node and application object types in Orion. *…

It sounds like you need to do some custom DB queries to find all uses of a custom property with a specific value. While this may not answer your question, I still want to share an immensely useful post from @"mesverrum": NODE CUSTOM PROPERTIES USES REPORT.

So glad to come across this post, as it's a great reminder to keep DNS clean and updated. We have a picture w/haiku hanging in our office that reminds us: It's not DNS It couldn't be DNS It was DNS :smileyvery-happy: Someday I'm going to write a PowerShell script that will validate PTR records in reverse lookup zones and…

You'll need to identify what kind of data you want to pull from Orion. There are different retention settings for detailed stats and for summary stats. Check your data retention settings at the 'Polling Settings' page in Orion at https://servername/Orion/Admin/PollingSettings.aspx. They are in the 'Database Settings'…

Make sure that you put the fully qualified domain name of your Orion server in the subject of the certificate, and then add all subject alternate names that are relevant: the FQDN (yes, again), the short name of the server, and the name of any load balanced URL that you have in front of the Orion servers. As long as the…

When you create an application monitoring template and assign it to a node, you end up with two key items (no pun intended) in the database. There will be an ApplicationID for each instance of that assigned template (remember that in Orion, template+node=application) and there will be a ComponentID for each monitored…

Side note: this post showed up for me under Thwack > Report Lab > Discussions. Is that where you intended to post it? I've seen many other discussions listed in completely unrelated areas, and am curious if tagging is off, or if content got shuffled during the move.

In each cluster node's details page, click the 'List Resources' button and deselect the clustered resource's volumes. Then, go to the node details page for your cluster VIP (aka cluster name object) and use 'List Resources' to select those cluster resource volumes.

Most of us have experienced a missing menu bar at least once in our Orion careers. Here are a few posts with troubleshooting steps that may solve the issue for you: Several things to try: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/t5/SAM-Discussions/Menu-bar-ribbon-gone-missing-after-upgrading-to-2019-4/m-p/113347 Contact…

Hi, Stephen, welcome to the community! Orion is a powerful monitoring tool that has proven to be very useful. A word of friendly caution, though: winging it may produce results that could flavor your future experience poorly. It sounds like you may be using NPM and SAM, at the very least. Here are some quick resources that…

Thanks for including the split-tunnel VPN option! To be fair, we weren't using this at all until everyone started working from home and using audio/video collaboration tools at significantly higher levels.

Clicked the link (just out of curiosity) and was presented with this message. It could be an opportunity to offer a trial, or limited beta access. It appears you do not have a license for Web Performance Monitor, or you are no longer under active maintenance. In order to participate in the Web Performance Monitor Beta…

SaaS infrastructure monitoring services is not something that my organization is even remotely looking at, BUT it's not hard to conceive the value in having monitoring, alerting, and SEIM all sharing a common data plane that can be analyzed by machine learning algorithms. The compute and storage (especially) resources…

@"Solaiy", it sounds like you may just need to tweak the action that sends alerts. Is the top box un-checked in your action's execution settings? "Do not execute this action if the alert has been acknowledged already" should be off if you want to keep receiving email alerts.
-
I haven't done this, but can't imagine why not. Your Ansible task could pull custom property values from YAML or by querying something else in your environment. After the install script has added the agent, you should be able to add a task that updates/sets the values of your custom properties using the same API. You'll…

I've seen manual installs of 2004 fail at the reboot step. Haven't found a specific answer to that problem, but from the bit of reading that I've done so far, my suspicion is that there may be an unsupported driver or peripheral that need to be disconnected until after the update is complete.

Nice find, @"ioan_bucsa". I'm going to pass this on to my network engineers. Thanks for sharing.

What kind of VPN are you using? Orion has some templates for F5 and I think ASA, but others like Netscaler Gateway will require a more customized approach.

There are so many factors that could affect availability. Start by looking at things that would prevent or delay a response to availability checks, such as latency (network, storage, etc) or packet loss. What other metrics for this server are unhealthy? Those should point you to the areas that need to be taken care of.

Out of curiosity, which version[s] of Orion modules are you running?

Step 7 is vague. What I believe it to mean is that you need to manually modify the ACLs on some specific Windows services in order for your non-admin account to monitor their status. (Yes, each configured Windows service has its own ACL that specifies who can start, stop, restart, modify, audit, etc the specified service.)…

Hmmm, has anyone used a gMSA (managed service account) for Orion services?
