Good Morning,
We run Aruba Silverpeak, and while using Solarwinds for our monitoring. I would like to get certain alarms that are in Aruba Orchestrator to be sent to Solarwinds(Silverpeaks are in SW). Anyone have history with this?
Thanks
Pat
You can do the alarms with SNMP Traps or using the UNDP & for more detailed monitoring - you can complete this via the Solarwinds API Poller against the orchestrator API. https://github.com/trevoro/snmp-mibs/blob/master/mibs/SILVERPEAK-MGMT-MIB.txt
Do you have a reference for how to setup the API polling for the SilverPeak Orchestrator?
Please vote up

We actually only use the API for monitoring HA active Active interfaces for traffic utilization - everything else is collected by SNMP either out of the box or using the universal device pollers. We get the CPU, Mem, Disk, Interface Traffic from the ECV Nodes directly
- We're also able to access the threshold alarms via SNMP so we can get the alarm data from the orchestrator for packet loss, latency, etc from the alarm threshold table via snmp and just filter the results down. There is a bit of SQL work in the Database to actually generate meaningful alerts but it's not as bad as we first imagined.
It's an absolute pain that Solarwinds hasn't built an out of the box monitoring for this seeing as they use Silver Peak internally and to make thigs worse they haven't updated the UNDP tool in about 20 years....
