Search Results

phattpks

I would like to know if I am able to customize the results of a search.

Today I can search for a node by its node name and it returns a list of nodes that contain what I entered.

Example: I enter "Por*" and Orion returns node called "Portland"

I would like to see the results with IP's. (The current results screen has a lot of unused real estate.)

Example:

Column 1 Column 2

Node names IP address

It would be nice if these columns were customizable with node info.

Thanks

No, tcustomization of search is not currently available

Keep in mind that if you search by any other criteria, the search results will display the nodename alongside that criteria. For example, if you search by IP address, it would display the node name in the first column and their corresponding IP address in the second column. Not exactly what you're looking for but definitely a workable solution.

This is not a workable solution, because the name of the node AND the IP address is what I spend most of my time searching for.

The search by IP gives the exact result I am looking for on a search by Node name.

Our problem is we have well over 4000 interfaces polling on a single threading application. It is a 60 to 90 second process just to find a single IP address.

I would hope a minor change like this wouldn't be a problem.

Anything Solarwinds can do to help speed up results until the "the single threaded engine" is fixed would be very much appreciated!!!!

Thanks

I am not sure where single threaded comes into this conversation, searching is not a single threaded operation. I have taken the ability to customize search results fields displayed as an enhancement request for a future release.

Sorry I should have given more history. My Orion server is always running at 90-95% cpu utilization (while my other 3 procs just sit there). The web interface is not the quickest around; I have been told that "when" Solarwinds releases the new engine everything would run much faster. If I could just click on a node and have the IP appear this wouldn't be such a big deal, but as it is now Orions web page loads so slow that the simple task of retrieving a group of IPs is a time consuming ordeal.
