Top XX Components by Response Time

The Top XX Components by Response Time widget displays the port monitors in your environment with the longest response time. You can use this SolarWinds Platform widget in SAM to display monitors and nodes with slow connectivity or performance issues. The widget can display a configurable amount of the top port monitors with the longest response times, as drawn from the Orion.ResponseTime table.

For this widget, you should be aware of the following data values:

• This widget only displays the following port monitors providing response time values: DNS, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, IMAP4, NNTP, POP3, SMTP, and TCP port monitors.
• The percentage does not determine the health color in the case of response time. The bar remains green.
• One hundred percent (100%) equals 2500 ms.

To further modify the widget:

• You can modify the amount of displayed components through the Edit options. The amount you enter is the maximum number of components to display. For example, if you set the maximum to 10, you may have any amount from 1 to 10 display. The higher the number, the longer the widget will display when filled.

  Removing the variable "XX" from the title removes dynamic inclusion of the defined maximum number of monitors from the widget title. The SolarWinds Platform Web Console replaces the XX with a number of monitors displayed such as 25 or 10.

• The title includes an XX variable, displaying the maximum amount value in the title.

  If you edit the title by removing "XX", the maximum amount will not display.

• Using SQL queries, you can further filter the reporting port monitors based on the longest response time.
• To limit data displayed in this widget to specific nodes:
  • Create a custom property for nodes and then add that custom property to the nodes, as described in Create a custom property in the SolarWinds Platform.
  • Edit the Top XX Component widget and use the Filbert section to filter results, using the new custom property. For example, Node.CustomProperty.City = 'Atlanta'. See Filter nodes in SolarWinds Platform widgets using SQL queries.
