Hello,
I am attempting SW Orion NPM upgrades to NPM 12.2 in order to remediate STIG vulnerability ID V-41036. Unfortunately, all of the servers this needs to performed on are in fact not internet accessible. So, First I downloaded the Solarwinds-Orion-NPM-12.2-OfflineInstaller.exe. Ok right? not so much and a couple of interesting discoveries. Strangely, when I run this virgin absolute latest (from what I can tell) offline installer. one of the first screens of it it that "a new installer is available and it wants to download. How is that since I just downloaded it from the customer portal??Dunno. anyways, I chose to skip this and proceed... a little confusing but OK I've seen stranger things. the the installer wizard runs a series of pre-deployment tests. Here's the meat of my post purpose. The test results are shown with "No internet connection detected. Installation cannot continue"...can't seem to skip past this. Also, for some odd reason, the installer discovers that I also have NCM and UDT installed, lists them as some "manual upgrades are necessary" (for NCM) and insists on doing so. I am not seeing a way I can De-Select these and simply continue with NPM only. Ultimately, the installer cannot continue and actually claims "download the offline installer" and gives me a link...so what the heck, I do it again and again. this time I downloaded the Solarwinds-Orion-OfflineInstaller.exe, which appears to be the exact 2.7GB painful download and results the exact same way... So will you help a fellow American out who's down on his luck?...can anyone shed some light on this situation? ALL and ANY Feedback will be greatly appreciated...Thanks in advance, Tony
