Documentation forServer & Application Monitor
Monitoring your applications and environment is a key capability of SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted (formerly Hybrid Cloud Observability) and is available in the Essentials edition. Server & Application Monitor (SAM) is also available in a standalone module.

How to Stop the Polling of all Applications Monitored by SAM.

  • To do this permanently: Delete all SAM applications.
  • To do this temporarily: Unmanage all applications.
  • To disable polling quickly and temporarily, without changing application parameters:
    1. Locate the following file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\SolarWinds\JobEngine.v2\plugins\SolarWinds.APM.Probes.plugin
    2. Next, move it to a different location and restart the Job Engine v2 service.

      This will result in an invalid configuration which may generate errors.

    3. Return the file to its original place and restart the Job Engine v2 service to return this to a working state.
