Detecting Hidden NCM Config Failures (ACCESS-DENIED) with SQL Alerts

Hey all — I’ve put together a write‑up on Thwack about a sneaky NCM issue where config downloads fail with ACCESS‑DENIED but never show up as failures in the UI. I’ve seen this catch out a lot of environments, so I figured it was worth documenting.

I included a SQL alert that surfaces these hidden failures so you can catch them immediately instead of discovering them weeks later.

Curious if anyone else has run into this or solved it differently — always good to compare notes.

It’s my first Thwack submission — hope it helps fellow SolarWinds geeks.
