More options for the maintenance mode.
Hi Christian, Thank you so much for your feedback. I agree with all 4 and I love the idea for #4. I would also add #5 to support managing the maintenance rules on a centralized location and link scopes to it. This will all become possible when we move the agent configuration on the webapp. -Paul

Pulseway Manager without agent
Hi Andy, Unfortunately no, but you can use Pulseway Group Policies (see page 19 of the User Manual) however they are configured from the Pulseway Manager which brings us back to the original question. After you install the Pulseway agent on your computer, do not enter your credentials when Pulseway Manager pops up at the end of the installation and then open the command prompt as an administrator and type in this command: sc delete "PC Monitor" This will delete the Pulseway service registration and you will be able to use the Pulseway Manager without registering as a monitored system. -Paul

WMI Module
Hi Martin, We're considering on implementing this as a similar feature to the SQL Server custom query notifications if you've tried them already. It will allow you to specify a WMI query that returns a single row with some columns for which you can setup notification rules. What do you think of this approach? -Paul

Service not starting on reboot
There is a built-in script called "Increase Windows Service Timeout at Startup" that performs this change. -Paul

Pulseway service doesn't start correct on some systems.
Hi Christian, There is also a built-in script that will double the service timeout time called 'Increase Windows Service Timeout at Startup'. We've seen this happening on systems that are running low on resources during boot and it's .NET Framework that fails to initialize on time thus Service Control Manager kills the whole service. -Paul

Network Discovery across VLANs
I'd also like to add that you either change the subnet of a NIC as @Chris pointed out to include the other networks or you can simply add additional IP addresses in the other networks on the same NIC just for the duration of the agent deployment procedure. We will consider adding support for manually inputting which networks to scan. -Paul

UPS Monitoring
Hi Matt, For the UPS devices that are network attached you should use SNMP to monitor their status (send me the model and I'll look up the MIB file for you) and for the ones that are USB attached you can try to use the APC UPS Daemon (http://www.apcupsd.org). -Paul

Network Discovery across VLANs
Hi Darrell, We scan all the local (and public if configured) networks that are assigned to your NICs. We take each IP address and subnet mask to calculate which networks we need to scan. If you provide access to other networks via static routes these networks will not be included in your network discovery. -Paul

Support for TLS 1.2 on Agent for PCI 3.2 Compliance
Hi Sacha, Under the WebApp -> Automation -> Tasks you will find a task called "Enable TLS 1.2 in .NET Framework 4.0". You can edit the system scope on which the automation task will run to only target the systems you need to. Alternatively you can run the "Enable TLS 1.2 in .NET Framework 4.0" built-in script individually on a system by going to the "Scripts" section of the system details from the WebApp or mobile apps under the Built-in categories. -Paul

Can I use PSWindowsUpdate over Pulseway
Hi Christian, I don't see why it wouldn't work. For that particular script is a little annoying as it relies on a module that you will have to embed in each script that you want to use that module. You could tinker with it a little to extract just the functions that you need if you got the time. -Paul

Hi Christian, It's called 'Check and Install Updates'. -Paul

Impoved Microsoft Windows Update
Hi Christian, Group Windows Update command doesn't support installing optional updates as they contain driver updates which may leave your system in a broken state. You could make use of the built-in script that checks for updates, installs them and restarts the computer and have that script in a task that runs against a scope. You'll need to modify the update search filter by removing the AutoSelectOnWebsite = 1 from the filter thus including all non-installed updates. At the end of the script you should see a commented line that says that if you want to restart the computer after installing the updates you should remove the comment. Remove the comment for that line. -Paul
