Hi Andy,
Try this PowerShell script that @Chris wrote a while ago:
try { $app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object { $_.Name -match "Pulseway" } $app.Uninstall() Write-Host "Uninstallation completed successfully" } Catch { $ErrorMessage = $_.Exception.Message $FailedItem = $_.Exception.ItemName Write-Host "There was an error on $computername.`r`n$FailedItem`r`nMessage: $ErrorMessage" Break } -Paul

I use this when I am onboarding a new client. Computers have been there and most people don't know/have their own admin password
 

Is there a subforum for the PSA product?  I'd be great to have a central place to connect with other users that utilize the offering.
Thanks,
-Chris
 

I would prefer to have more information than what we have now.  Seeing the schedule in a column and also seeing the scope would be very helpful.

Hi!
As far as I know, all major monitoring systems have the ability to customize graphs...
Because a picture is worth a thousand words, a screenshot of my installation of Zabbix. It's by far not as pretty as pulseway but the ability to customize the timeframe of the graph is sometime I frequently use.
Would it be possible to create an extra menu item called "Graphs"
When we click on that, I'd like to se a list of devices I'm monitoring in the middle pane. Clicking on a computer would then give me all the sensors that have (historical) data  in the right pane.
Ofcourse, clicking on a sensor opens a graph with a customizable timeframe so that I can see for example the hard disk usage over a period of  6 months so that I can predict when the disk will be full.
Would this be at all possible?
Thank you very much!

This would be a massive step forwards in centralising this into a server style product. Keep us posted. Not being able to even set offline PC's into maintenance mode is quite annoying.
 
Also if you could collect daily temperature roundups like the other server based stats that would be good for checking why an offline system went down.

Hi Paul,
so this is my solution for a simple single Dell R330. Thanks to the Dell-Support and a Tool called EventLogSourcesView (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/event_log_sources_view.html).
1. Make sure the server runs with the newest drivers and software.
2. Make sure the iDRAC 8 Express is correctly configured and working. I also configured a fallback e-mail notification over the iDRAC 8 Express.
3. Install the Dell OpenMange Server Administrator and configure it for your needs.
4. In the Pulseway Agent:
4.1. Under System -> Services activate everything with DSM* (e.g. DSM SA Connect Service, DSM SA Data Manager, DSM SA Event Manager, DSM SA Shared Services) ... this should be Dell Services which needs to run!
4.2. Under Notifications -> Services activate everything with DSM* ... like before, so we get a notification if the services are not running.
4.3. Under Notifications -> Event Log -> I created two filters. One for Errors (Critical) and one for Warnings and Audit Failures (Elevated). I look only in the Event Log System, and as Source I take the services from before, but with name (e.g. Server Administrator, dcstor64, dcevt64, omsad).
Today I did some tests, and it looks like it would work without any troubles...
Greetings,
Christian.

Hi Steve, 
I've sent you a private message.

Hi
Would it be posssible for you to add some more views in the dashboard application.
it's great to see it on a big TV in the office but would be usefully if we can change:
- to a list view (like windows explorer allows to change the views of files in a folder) - then would enable us see more customers on one screen rather than waiting for them to come around after the rotation
- change font size
- make the green / red circles smaller ( a column list view would be good)
- remove items from view like - hiding os version.
- adding items on the view like - logged in user
- option to remove the scrolling banner at the bottom.
 
Thanks

I'll take either.  While you are at it, folders in Tasks would be nice, and the ability to move tasks between them.  

Ah, found a conflicting web filter rule, I think I'm back in business now.

Hi,
in the moment everything is in english. We use the Pulseway MSP edition, and out customers are not all very familiar with the english language. For this it would be great to have at least this part of your software translated into different languages.
Thanks,
Christian.

You could test the exit code of the installer. If it's msi based then these are some known exit codes: http://www.msierrors.com/tag/msiexec-return-codes/

And here is a script to uninstall malwarebytes:

This and commands for tags would be amazing. Added to our wishlist.
-Paul

It would be nice if we could set up dynamic tags.
Devices could have tags added/removed based by rules, like:
does one or more files (from a list) exist on the device does one or more registy entries (from a list) exist on the device does one or more applications (from a list) exist as installed applications on the device. Of course it should be possible to use wildcards :-)

Which reminds me that we still don't have support for inputs on the webapp. I'll see if we can prioritize this.

Hi Martin,
Thanks. I've pushed this into our todo list. It will be picked by the development team and we'll notify you when this is implemented.

Check out this plugin by @digbyp:
We're considering on moving the agent configuration on the webapp for easier configuration management.

I made a install script for Winrar to do a Silent install.

When a new version of Winrar comes out, just change the winrar-x64-540.exe to the new value.
