  title: VividCortex (SolarWinds Database Performance Monitor) Alerts Hosts API
  version: '2.0'
  description: REST API v2 for VividCortex / SolarWinds Database Performance Monitor (DPM). Programmatic access to monitored hosts, metrics and time-series data, observed queries and their samples, events/annotations, and alert configuration. Modeled faithfully from the public reference at https://docs.vividcortex.com/api/ — every path, method, parameter and example response below is taken from the published documentation. VividCortex does not publish a machine-readable OpenAPI document; this is an API Evangelist reconstruction for discovery and governance and is not an authoritative provider artifact.
