Description
This is the Annual Maintenance Renewal for the SolarWinds Additional Polling Engine (Standard). This license allows you to scale the polling capacity of your standard tier Network Performance Monitor (NPM) installation.
Used primarily with NPM licenses ranging from SL100 to SL2000, this polling engine offloads work from the main server to distributed locations. Renewing maintenance is required to keep the poller synchronized with the main Orion server version.
Why Renew Maintenance?
- Sync: Main server version match.
- Capacity: Maintain distributed monitoring.
- Support: 24/7 SolarWinds assistance.
- Official: SolarWinds Distributor - Middle East | Authorised Partner - North America renewal.
Key Features (Standard Polling Engine)
- Distributed Monitoring: Monitor remote sites locally without streaming raw SNMP data across the WAN.
- Load Balancing: Reduce CPU/Memory load on the primary Orion server.
- Scalability: Add more elements to your monitoring environment beyond the capacity of a single server.
- Redundancy: Can be used in High Availability (HA) configurations (requires HA license).

FAQs: Polling Engine Renewal
Q: Is this different from the Unlimited Polling Engine?
A: Yes. This SKU is for "Standard" licenses (SL100, SL250, SL500, SL2000). If you have an "Unlimited" (SLX) license, you need the Unlimited APE renewal.
Q: Why do I need to renew this?
A: If the maintenance expires, you cannot upgrade the polling engine software. If you upgrade your main server, the old polling engine will disconnect and stop collecting data.
