We are using several custom properties in NPM. Some are dropdown lists.
When I edit a node (https://solarwinds_server/Orion/Nodes/NodeProperties.aspx) and attempt to set one of these custom properties, one of two things seem to happen:
- The page freezes and at the bottom, under the "Poll for UCS" and "Poll for VMWare" checkboxes the brown and yellow "processing" gif appears. After about 5 seconds, the choice I made for the custom property dropdown is set and I can continue editing. What is being processed and why does it take so long?
- The above happens but then all of the custom properties and other sections just disappear.
To better describe this - The normal node editing screen has these sections:
Name
Polling IP Address
Polling Method Section (which displays/hides Javascript depending on the method chosen)
Polling
Dependencies
Custom Properties
UCS Credentials
VMWare Polling Settings
Alerting Thresholds
Blank space placeholder where "processing" gif appears
Submit/Cancel buttons.
If #2 above happens (which seems to be about 1/3 of the time I try to edit a node and modify a custom property dropdown) the screen changes to:
Name
Polling IP Address
Polling Method Section (which displays/hides Javascript depending on the method chosen)
Polling
Dependencies
Custom Properties
UCS Credentials
VMWare Polling Settings
Alerting Thresholds
Blank space placeholder where "processing" gif appears
Submit/Cancel buttons.
The four crossed out items above disappear from the page.
Anyone have any idea what's going on here?
