Very excited for this release. Scheduling a maintenance window for the upgrade/install.

With the Prestaging and Configuration Wizard improvements made in this release, I think you'll find it takes you a fraction of the time to upgrade to 2020.2 than it did previous releases.

WIthout Configuration Wizard logs its difficult to say for certain what the issue might be. If you have not yet already, please try and run the Configuration Wizard again and see if it self-corrects the issue. If it does not, I would recommend opening a case with support or contact your Sales rep for assistance from a Sales Engineer if you don't already own SAM. In either case, it's likely that they will ask for diagnostics to determine the cause of the problem.

sphil608 this is at the Orion instance level, not the per poller level. Prior to 2020.2 we supported up to 400,000 elements in a single deployment, with 2020.2 we not support 1M elements in a single deployment or instance of Orion. The per poller numbers have not changed.

So am I correct in my understanding: 2019.4 supports 12k-15k network elements before require a new polling engine to be spun up. But 2020.2 supports 1m/polling engine now?
