Thank you @"MichaelUA" "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" have a good one. 

Yup, its all Windows based @"MichaelUA" 

As @"JaroslawLadyga" mentioned rerunning the config wizard and selecting all 3 options website,services&Db might help. But this is kinda strange, i would suggest you to open a case with SolarWinds rather, its good they take a look at the logs as well.

It totally depends on what modules you have in your environment. Baseline is yes it should be possible to upgrade directly from 2018.4 to 2020.2.1 but there are certain considerations as their is a small shift in certain things between 2018.4 and 2020.2.1, hence its always better to use upgrade advisor. For example: If you…

SELECT Caption AS NodeName, IPAddress FROM Nodes

1. Once the AppInsight for Exchange template is pushed on the Exchange servers being monitored, following are the parameters that is collected through SAM: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/Success_Center/SAM/Content/SAM-AppInsight-TemplateExchange.htm 2. You already have 3 default reports under managed reports which…

Hi @"jmyers" That's the behavior of SolarWinds, those down volumes will still remain under the node as its already added into the database, you will have to delete the volumes from the node (settings->manage nodes->search for node->expand->select the down volume -> delete) as these are dormant volumes and then select the…

Hello @"adam.hert" , all, I have gone through several posts regarding the same and it states SolarWinds 2019.4 through 2020.2.1 is vulnerable at the moment. I don't want to assume anything that's the reason i am asking this -> Does that mean SolarWinds Orion Platform 2018.4 HF3 is stable at the moment and isn't vulnerable…

Go through the below whitepaper, this should answer most of your queries. https://www.solarwinds.com/-/media/solarwinds/swdcv2/licensed-products/orion-scalability-engines/resources/whitepapers/orion-scalability-tech-tips.ashx?rev=d31af0a72aad4df18a6daed42c9a2612

Hi @"balramdau94" NPM 8.5 is legacy and obsolete, upgrading that isn't an easy job. The best approach would be to install the latest version on a new box and yes you will need an active SolarWinds license to do it. Install it on a new server and decommission the existing one. Plus you wont be able to use 'SolarWinds…

Have you tried the below 2 points, assuming after agent is installed you have added these nodes onto SolarWinds Orion and under Managed agents you can see that the connection is established with the end device: 1. Restarting the agent on end device ? If yes point 2 2. Restarting Orion services on Primary/Additional Poller…

Regex is matching the word and looks like its working as per the condition provided by you: 1. regex is trying to search for word "AP" and hence its picking up the below interface GigabitEthernet0/1/0 · Trunk port - Native VLAN 331 - AP 2. regex is trying to search for word "routers" and hence its picking up the below…

Hello @"MichaelUA" As far as i understand you do not need a VMAN appliance anymore (which use to run on CentOS earlier) - SolarWinds states that you need to shutdown your VMAN appliance and move your VMAN module onto Orion platform. With VMAN 8.0 and later, the VMAN appliance is no longer required, and as of VMAN 2020.2.1,…

Check the log retention details, the below link might help: https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Live-Data-Storage-Retention-in-LEM?language=en_US

Post upgrade did you reboot your servers ? Orion pollers + DB ?

Hi @"tinminnwe" I am assuming you have active license. Check out the below links https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Orion-Platform-upgrade-assistance?language=en_US Login into Customer Portal, describe your SolarWinds environment and the upgrade advisor will guide you with what needs to be done.…

Hi @"omavel" I am guessing that maybe you can use the built in variables, like in the example that you have stated try passing the arguments as mentioned below if you want to pass monitor name as an argument onto the script Script arguments : 443, ${ComponentName} Script body: $MonitorName=$args.get(1); Give it a try and…

From what i understand, i don't think you have an option at the moment to do that. Lets wait and watch if someone else has done something like this without any extra effort using the default features.

Looks to me like an issue with connecting to your Database. Could be due to latency or your DB is quite heavy at the moment. Temporary Solution: Talk to DB team and check if large tables can be reindexed or check if there is a possibility of restarting your Orion DB.

SAM Licensing model states as mentioned below: You can use as many component monitors as needed, as long as the number of assigned component monitors doesn't exceed the license count. If you exceed a license limit, component monitors beyond the limit are not activated and their statuses change to Not Licensed. Either…

Here you go. Connect to your SQL Box and run the below query. SELECT Caption AS NodeName, IPAddress FROM Orion.Nodes Export it to csv or text file, this should contain all devices that are monitored in your enviroment.

Hello @"JCALD6" That is correct, looks like that page has been removed, it spoke about a couple of things, let me list down a few (nothing that you cant explore if you use thwack regularly): 1. How do you navigate through the various options available on thwack. 2. Where can you check the product capabilities for each…

Hello @"popem" You are right in saying so, that's how the architecture is, but you can always use an encrypted connection to your database https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/Success_Center/orionplatform/content/core-encrypt-database-connections-with-ssl.htm

Hi @"marcrobinson" I don't think they will upgrade the component monitors unless there is a change on the underlying connection method that is used by a component monitor or unless they add additional features to the component monitor itself. Most of these component monitors have been running for ages. The only thing that…

Hello @"jonchill" @"m_roberts" might be correct, but then i generally go with the standard approach, below is what i did for my projects: 1. Ideally I upgrade the modules before I migrate to a new server. 2. In case for SolarWinds module upgrade if I need a latest version of OS (like say Windows 2019) etc... in that case i…

Hi @"mykopascua" Use the 'Search' Area on right top corner. Type your custom property name and 'Search'
