To view release notes, system requirements, and product guide (formerly known as administrator guide) PDFs for supported versions of WPM, see WPM previous versions.

WPM runs on the SolarWinds Platform (self-hosted). WPM release notes include the updates from the SolarWinds Platform (self-hosted).

Critical update advisories

Critical update advisories alert you to key prerequisites, system environment updates, and operational changes in this release. Review these details carefully before initiating an upgrade to ensure a smooth deployment.

Legacy wireless SWIS entities

Legacy wireless SWIS entities were removed in this release. As a consequence, custom alerts, reports, or widgets using the removed SWIS entities stop working. Replace the legacy SWIS entities with currently supported ones. See this topic for details.

SolarWinds Message Bus replaces RabbitMQ

All deployments that do not have High Availability configured will be upgraded to the new message bus, SolarWinds Message Bus, replacing RabbitMQ. In previous versions, this migration was limited to only deployments with fewer than 300 nodes, fewer than 3 polling engines, and not using High Availability.

Passwords for passive WPM Players

Included in this release are changes to Web Performance Monitor (WPM) components. All features and platform modules are installed regardless of active licensing, as all SolarWinds Platform products share an underlying framework. SolarWinds recommends upgrading all environments at your earliest convenience to apply the latest performance and security fixes.

Three types of WPM player installations are affected by this update advisory:

The default player installed on the main polling engine when SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted was first installed.
Remote players installed by the customer and configured for passive mode.
Remote players installed by the customer in active mode.

After upgrading, passive WPM Players installed by default on the main polling engine (using Server-initiated communication) are switched to the active mode (using Player-initiated communication).

Passive WPM Players installed remotely are pre-filled with a randomly generated strong password during their automatic upgrade. This includes WPM Players with a disabled "Enable Upgrade" toggle. These are not upgraded to the latest version.

Active WPM Players (using Player-initiated communication) do not require a password to be set after the upgrade.

New features and improvements in WPM

There were no features or improvements added for WPM in this release.

New features and improvements in SolarWinds Platform

SLA Mute mode for maintenance windows

Maintenance windows now support an SLA Mute state. In this state, monitoring and data collection continue, you can optionally mute alerting, and the SolarWinds Platform excludes the period from availability and SLA calculations. Unmanaging or disabling an object stops monitoring entirely, while SLA Mute keeps the object monitored during planned maintenance.

Redesigned network discovery

Network discovery has a redesigned workflow that uses the same interaction patterns as the rest of the modernized SolarWinds Platform Web Console and takes fewer steps to bring devices under monitoring.

To add SD-WAN devices, use the legacy wizard. Support for adding SD-WAN devices will be added in a future release.
You can switch between the legacy and new discovery wizards at any time.
In large environments, discovery uses the main polling engine by default instead of the polling engine with the lowest engine ID.

High availability

The High Availability panel now refreshes pool and member status and member roles every 10 seconds, so the information stays accurate during a failover.
A new HA status of 'Failover in progress' is now shown while a failover runs.
Updated the HA Failover Action to better support multi-member pools.
Improved audit events for HA Repair and HA server role changes.
SolarWinds Platform Agents are supported on polling engines in multi-cluster HA pools with m:n active/standby members. Agents connect to the correct engine and are automatically redirected to another engine during a failover.
Engine load balancing now includes nodes polled through WMI and WinRM, in addition to nodes polled through ICMP and SNMP. See Balance load on additional polling engines in an HA pool.

Alert when a device stops sending SNMP traps

A new out-of-the-box alert triggers when a device does not send an SNMP trap within a time period that you specify. Use this alert to detect silent failures on devices that cannot be polled, such as a trap source behind a data diode.

Asset ID included in forwarded alerts

Alerts forwarded to integrated service management tools, including SolarWinds Service Desk, ServiceNow, and SolarWinds Incident Response, now include the Asset ID of the affected entity. The receiving tool can link the incident to the exact configuration item in its configuration management database (CMDB).

Accessibility improvements

Updated accessibility support for keyboard navigation, ARIA roles and semantics, and screen readers to help meet Section 508 requirements.

HTML and ARIA accessibility: Corrected heading semantics, breadcrumb roles, and required parent roles for tables and menus. Added accessible names for overlays and switches, and corrected invalid or incomplete ARIA relationships.
Keyboard accessibility: Enabled keyboard access to scrollable regions and search controls, improved the focus order in search, and removed focusable elements nested within other interactive controls.
Search and main menu accessibility: Improved focus indicators and contrast, keyboard activation, Enter and Escape key behavior, accessible labels, and screen reader support for search controls.
Interactive controls: Corrected nested interactive elements in radio controls and list items.

API and SDK Authentication

OAuth

OAuth is available for on-premises connectors that access the SolarWinds Information Service (SWIS) API, and in SWQL Studio.

API token

You can create an API token for an individual user account and use it instead of a password to authenticate automation against the SolarWinds Platform.
If an API Token is created for a non-admin account, the user can disable, regenerate the token, or delete it by navigating to their profile.

See JWT from an API Token for details.

Scalability updates

A SolarWinds Platform Web Server now supports up to 150 concurrent user sessions, an increase from 100.

Concurrent users are counted as users interacting with the SolarWinds Platform Web Console within a 30-second window. Hardware requirements depend on the number of concurrent users supported.

FIPS 140-3 compliance

When deployed in FIPS-approved mode, SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted 2026.4 and all listed modules are FIPS 140-3 ready, with documented exceptions.

Database Performance Analyzer Integration Module improvements

The following improvements have been added to the Database Performance Analyzer Integration Module (DPAIM):

Cloud SQL databases monitored by DPA can be automatically discovered through DPAIM. Configuration changes are synchronized and obsolete cloud relationships are cleaned up automatically when cloud resources or accounts are deleted.
From the DPA Server Management page, you can now edit the properties of an integrated DPA server without having to remove and then reestablish the integration.

Additional updates

Added the SWQL function String_Agg(), which combines values from multiple rows into a single delimited cell.
Added support for Microsoft Entra ID authentication between the SolarWinds Platform and the SQL Server. Changing to this new authentication type is performed in the Configuration wizard. The following Microsoft Entra authentication options have been added:
- Microsoft Entra Password
- Microsoft Entra Integrated
- Microsoft Entra Service Principal
- Microsoft Entra Managed Identity
Users can schedule regular maintenance with unlimited duration.
Updated the maintenance notification on the Node Details page to allow for easier reading.
Migrated the Node Details Interface tab from legacy user interface.
Automatic migration of the deprecated Unmanage Scheduling Utility (Unmanage Task Editor) jobs: When you upgrade, the Configuration wizard migrates existing Unmanage Scheduling Utility schedules to the Manage Schedules page. Schedules that reside on a standby server in a High Availability pool are not migrated. Recreate those schedules manually on the Manage Schedules page.

Windows schedules that reside on a standby server in a High Availability pool are not migrated by the Configuration wizard. Recreate them manually on the Manage Schedules page.
Hardware Health data is now collected for additional Aruba switch models, including the Aruba 2930F/2930M VSF virtual chassis and the Aruba 5406R zl2 and 5412R zl2.

Matching SNMP nodes with no Hardware Health data are rescanned for hardware sensors during upgrade.
All deployments that do not have High Availability configured will be upgraded to the new message bus, SolarWinds Message Bus, replacing RabbitMQ. In previous versions, this migration was limited to only deployments with fewer than 300 nodes, fewer than 3 polling engines, and not using High Availability.

SolarWinds Message Bus is only used for licensed upgrades. Fresh installations and evaluations keep using RabbitMQ.
For Modern Dashboard Global Filters, additional clarification was added when editing the Global Filter Configuration page to inform a user that additional updates to SWQL might be required if a Custom Property is selected.
All SolarWinds Platform services now run on .NET 10 and .NET Framework 4.8. SolarWinds Platform no longer installs or uses the .NET 8 runtimes.
Updated legacy Node Detail views with missing conditional options to hide view if it was not applicable to respective node. Conditions can be seen by editing the Node Detail page and selecting the left-hand tab.

N/A	Running a High Availability repair now works correctly even if a SolarWinds service is unable to stop.	Platform
02083369, 02026720, 02010290, 02097812, 02108965	*Platform Connect now runs a preflight connectivity and TLS readiness check before UAMS registration, detecting common problems such as blocked outbound ports, DNS resolution failures, TLS trust-chain issues, and blocked ALPN/HTTP2 negotiation. If an issue is detected, it displays clear remediation guidance instead of a late, unclear failure.	Platform
02148084, 02168675, 02164466	*Node statistics collection no longer fails for an entire batch of nodes when a single node reports an unusually long ICMP response time. Response times that exceed the previous storage limit are now handled without causing bulk insert failures for other nodes.	Platform
02123590, 02147402, 02161418	*Users are now warned before uninstalling the UAMS plugin in a High Availability environment because doing so without first disabling HA can lead to failover issues.	Platform

02176816	*An Intelligent Map widget using Map Name Format on a legacy Group Summary page no longer fails to load the map when a view limitation is also configured.	Platform
02203409	*Upgrades no longer fail because the deployment uses an older self-signed SolarWinds certificate signed with the SHA-1 algorithm. The Configuration Wizard now uses RabbitMQ instead of NATS as the message bus broker when the certificate has a SHA-1 signature.	Platform
02179634	*The Job Engine worker process no longer fails with an unhandled exception during WMI-based polling, improving background polling job stability.	Platform
02166379	*A time series widget that includes a PerfStack project can now be edited. Editing is no longer blocked because the Starting timespan field is required but no value can be selected.	Platform
01733844, 02121093, 02127266	*Email notifications now attach PDF files using the correct application/pdf MIME type instead of plain/text. Therefore, mail clients correctly recognize PDF attachments.	Platform

*This fix was added after the RC release.

Windows schedules that reside on a standby server in a High Availability pool are not migrated by the Configuration wizard. Recreate them manually on the Manage Schedules page.

Kubernetes 1.16 - 1.22

Kubernetes 1.16 - 1.22 container monitoring is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. SolarWinds recommends upgrading your cluster to version 1.23 or later, then re-adding the service in SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted.

Network Atlas

Network Atlas is deprecated as of Orion Platform 2020.2. It is still available and supported in the current release, but will be removed in a future release. Deprecation is an indication that you should avoid expanded use of this feature and formulate a plan to discontinue using the feature.
