Can Orion do any availability management of the servers i.e. uptime?

Thanks

Glenn,

Surely- We have out-of-the box availability reports. If you don't see what you are looking for there, it is simple to create a custom report.

Sorry I am very new to this environment, where would I find this information?

mstraughan

Out of the box NPM has a report for "Availability - Yeseterday" and "Availability - Last Month" and some more if you just login to NPM web interface and look at the Reports page. Process for getting there can vary depending on how your menus are set up, or if you have access to the windows box Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Alerting, Reporting, and Mapping > Report Writer and you can run the report queries from there

Also whats the difference between alerts and reports?

mstraughan

An alert is something you setup that reacts to whatever events you set it to and performs the action requested such as email,sms, etc. example: if nodeA status equals down email me@site.com. A report is a chart or table giving present/historical data, there is a large amount of information that can presented in a report since anything in the db can be pulled and viewed using sql
