SolarWinds Orion 8.5.1 - Service Pack 3
This service pack requires Orion 8.5.1.
Production: ftp://ftp.solarwinds.net/Orion/ServicePack/Orion8.5.1-SP3.zip
Evaluation: ftp://ftp.solarwinds.net/Orion/ServicePack/Orion8.5.1-SP3-Eval.zip
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.
Service Pack 3 resolves the following issues:
- CPU load is now polled correctly for Windows devices with a large number of processes
- Alert actions now work correctly with day of week filtering
- Maps with non-ASCII names now appear correctly on the website
- Execution of an external program or of VBScript with parameters now works correctly for Advanced Alert Actions and Trap rules
- Alert Engine no longer repeatedly reports database connection errors
- Database Details web page no longer results in a timeout error
- Edit Custom List of Reports resource no longer results in a "Page cannot be found" error
