We are currently evaluating Orion as an NMS, and have to say have been very impressed so far - bit of a shame about the severe limitations of the demo product though.
We would be looking at using the SLX version of the product to realistically monitor somewhere in the region of 4000 router and switch interfaces.
I assume that there must be quite a number of you out doing axactly this at the moment. What has the performance of the product been like under those sort of loads? We would be looking at having somewhere in the region of 8 monitor accounts logged in to the product at any one time.
Does anybody have any sort of comments on product performance and PC platform required to get a satisfactory performance under those kind of loads. (Looking for real world indicators rather than Solarwinds recommended spec). Thanks!
