This Service Pack 3 includes a new web resource named "All Nodes - Tree (AJAX)". This is an incrementally loaded version of the "All Nodes - Tree" resource that appears on the Network Summary Home view by default. This new AJAX resource should perform better when monitoring a larger number of nodes. To support this resource, the Microsoft ASP.NET AJAX Extensions package (ASPAJAXExtSetup.msi) is installed with SP3.

Will SP3 be made part of the full 8.5.1 install as I'm now considering upgrading?
Thanks
Jon
If you download 8.5.1 now (since the release of SP3), then SP3 is already rolled in.
How can I tell if I have SP3. I download 8.5.1 yesterday but it does not indicate an SP level in the about page.
The footer on the website will tell you if you have Service Pack 3.
What if you have a seperate web server? We applied service pack 3 to Orion and I cannot find any indication that it is on service pack 3. I didn't find any information in the release notes in regards to seperate web servers or applying the SP to a seperate webserver. Does this need to be assumed and will it affect anything for the Orion portion of the update if it does not exist on the webserver??
You can verify that version of Orion by opening registry editor and going to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Solarwinds\Orion\Core
You may also see version information about any other add-ins that you have installed. It will be in various sub-folders of the Orion folder.
Perfect! That is exactly what I needed!
IE7 & Orion 8.5.1 SP3: Telnet does not work....
I understand that Microsoft disabled the Telnet protocol in IE7, but I have re-enabled it through the registry fix. The problem here is that the telnet hyperlink on the Orion web site for a node is in the format of telnet:<ip address> rather than telnet://<ip address>. See for a good explanation of the problem.
Are there plans to fix this?

You can fix this by editing the file named integrationicons.ascx. by default it's located at c:\inetpub\solarwinds\orion\netperfmon\controls\integrationicons.ascx. Open the file with a text editor and search for "telnet:" to find the point in the code where you need to add the slashes.
Thanks!!!
I actually did a search/replace for href='telnet: and href="telnet: and replaced it with href='telnet:// and href="telnet://.
It was replaced in 7 files.

37: <a href="telnet://<%=SQLResource.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>"><img alt="Telnet to Access Point" src="/NetPerfMon/images/Small.Telnet.gif" Border="0"></a>
It now works perfectly.
