IPAM subnet manual scan

Hi all,

I have a question regarding IPAM manual scan. Whenever I click the scan button the scan gets scheduled to run at a certain time, usually three or four hours after the scan button was clicked. My question is, is that a normal behavior or should it run immediately after I click the scan button?

  • Mine go to "queued" and is listed as a manual scan, but then I almost always have threads running so it has to wait. As soon as a scan stops, it scans the subnet and completes very quickly. Typically its a minute between when I hit it and when it completes (but a larger subnet will take longer).

    Is it possible that it simply ran so fast you missed it? What does the current log in c:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\Logs\IPAM\Jobs say? You might have an entry for that subnet already there to validate that it ran. If it does take that long to get a "scan now" to happen, you may need more scans running. If you have the resources take an article that show how to increase it at: Success Center
