i am getting below error while upgrading our environment from SAM 6.7 to SAM 6.9.1. I have opened a support case and submitted diagnostics with the case. Trying to involve solarwinds support for almost 6 hours by calling them and issue is still not resolved. Support personals are dodging our support requests on calls and mails without providing any logical solution to the problem.
Our entire production environment is down and kind of stuck with absolutely no help from solarwinds support.
Any help from the community is deeply appreciated. Tagging aLTeReGo if he can help.
