I ran across another cool post that a member of the thwack community put together that I wanted to share with everyone. lasher put together some new resources for Orion NPM v9.5.1 which allow you to create double and triple gauges within a resource for Universal Device Pollers. If you wanted to accomplish this today, you would need to use a custom html resource, so this makes life much quicker and easier.
So I can hear you saying, ok you had me at double and triple gauges, how do I get this?
First, you can download this resource here
To install:
- Copy CustomOIDEditGaugeDoubleTriple.aspx and CustomOIDEditGaugeDoubleTriple.aspx.cs to InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Resources folder.
- Copy CustomPollerRadialGaugeDoubleTriple.ascx and CustomPollerRadialGaugeDoubleTriple.ascx.cs to InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Resources\NodeGauges folder.
- Copy CustomOIDEditLinearGaugeDoubleTriple.aspx and CustomOIDEditLinearGaugeDoubleTriple.aspx.cs to InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Resources folder.
- Copy CustomPollerLinearGaugeDoubleTriple.ascx and CustomPollerLinearGaugeDoubleTriple.ascx.cs to InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Resources\NodeGauges folder.
As lasher states, there are 4 known issues with it.
- Auto-Scale not working and has been disabled.
- Auto-Hide Resource not working correctly and has been disabled.
- Must set Warning & Error Threshold or Gauges will display red.
- Gauge labels do not set correctly when first added to page. (Workaround is to edit the gauge and click submit. Labels will show up correctly after that.)
