It appears that it may also prevent the Resource Monitor from load. When you are running low on resources, the SOLIDWORKS Resource Monitor provides messages in the notification area of the Windows taskbar that help you take action to avoid a system failure or a loss of data. Months ago I had installed the NET-SNMP using IPKG in order to get Cacti working. The SOLIDWORKS Resource Monitor utility monitors resources that your SOLIDWORKS software or your system is using.

While I thought upgrading to DSM 4.2 would solve the problem it did unfortunately not, therefore I started playing around and found the culprit: SNMP. On one of my Synology NAS (I call them NAS but they would deserve a more flattering name), the Resource Monitor widget refused to load and remained stuck on Waiting like depicted on the screen capture below:
