This would be a nice addition to the executive dashboard.

FIXED - The 7 accounts needed to be added to the admins group. Also, for some reason, the web console reported that WPM Player Settings was set to Server Initiated, while the local application under Start --> All Program --> Solarwinds Orion --> WMP --> WPM Player Settings had Player Initiated Communication selected.…

I see where it created 7 local accounts for SEUM-USER-1 and so on, but I'm still seeing the errors. I've tried adding them to the local admin group, as one of the logs indicates that the user account being used either has incorrect credentials or does not have admin privileges. I tried making them local admins, but this…

Run as admin worked! I can't believe I didn't try that before. Thank you for the additional suggestions too, that is getting me much further with this project.

Both of your answers work. Thank you aLTeReGo for the much needed assistance!

It is the player that is installed on the primary Orion server. I've just installed it today, this is the first time we are using it. No additional pollers were installed.

That is what I was looking for. So if you were to be logged into the main console and find that retrieving any information is slow, it would reside somewhere between the primary console and the database, not any of the additional pollers.

Figured out the problem. This is another one of those installs that seems to require a local account to using during install, not a domain account. Thank you for your response. Is this part of the requirements document for installing an Additional Poller (or maybe I didn't read the manual properly)?

Thank you Sean! I was not aware that SAM would only give those metrics for Windows.

I hadn't seen that 12.2 was out. I'll schedule a request to get this upgraded and reply back with the results. Thanks.

The /proc/meminfo shows accurate numbers, nothing negative. I don't have a /opt because the agent is not installed, we are monitoring using SNMPv3. Should the agent be used instead? Also, unmanaged/managed didn't seem to work either. Another strange thing to note, if i do real time polling with Perf Analysis, the number…

I like this idea, but I can't seem to make it work. I can get the additional custom property to show up on the node details, but my advanced alert manager does not show it as a condition to base my alerts on. Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

Thank you for your quick response. I've added the HTTP Monitor, and modified the HostHeader, but I'm finding that if the webserver is listening to all traffic, not specific host headers, SAM thinks it passes the test. For example, if I have a Dev server and it listens for everything on port 80, it seems that www.blah.com…

That totally worked! So the installation completed, but now the poller reports as "Down" on the polling engines page. The "Last database sync" reports that it last synced when it was installed. The only way I've been able to make it update is by running the config wizard again. But then it stops updating and still reports…

How do the local WPM accounts work since they are constantly trying to interactively login without a PIV card? When the requirement to use a second credential is implemented, WPM no longer functions. Any ideas?

I followed the links you posted, which were very helpful, but now from SAM I get Authorization Error - User does not have rights to requested MIBs. I'm trying this on our typical SAM account as well as the admin account.

That link worked! An alternative method was to add the line com.sun.management.snmp.acl=false, but I was not sure what the downside of doing this. Is one more or less secure?

I'm having the same exact problem. Has anyone figured this out? When I add the 2 lines to Tomcat 6, it won't start anymore.

Just an additional error: Player is in active mode and refused direct connection. This finally showed up in the Solarwinds console for the Orion Server. I know it says that a port needs to be opened between the server and the player, but they are on the same box. Firewall is off.

Very interested in this answer myself. It was my understanding the the additional poller would go directly to the database, since it has to make that connection when you first install it. Anyone have a definitive answer on this? I'm getting complaints that the console is slow and the new poller was the most recent change.

Found an answer to my own question. Had to run yum install perl-libwww-perl on the Apache server. Template now works perfectly. Resource: Apache
