Hi all, I have a Python script that is triggered via alert actions. I was able to get it to work in a lab environment, but when moving to our production machine I keep getting "Execute program failed with exit code 1" despite a lot of troubleshooting. I am able to log in as the service account the actions use and run the…
Hi, I am trying to create an alert which will triggers when the Solarwinds detected that the services that it monitored is down. The things that I am trying to achieve is: 1.

Hello Thwack members, Have anyone tried an automation for disk space removal using SolarWinds..? We have a power shell script which will be executed using an external action.

The difficulty is that the program needs to actually login to a router and make a change based on the alert and information peculiar to the router config. We currently use NetMRI to make changes. Would a standard terminal editor work from the Orion server? I assume the…
Hi all, I need to execute an external program which will be triggered when an syslog message is genterated. The external program will use the syslog message as input and use for further process. My ultimate target is to send an text sms whenever an particular type syslog message is generated. Any suggestion? rajan.
I am having problems getting an advanced alert to execute an external program (.bat file). When I test the alert it appears to fire but the program never executes. The program will launch if I use a basic alert, but I need the action to be delayed 20 minutes. Is anyone else having this problem or know of a work around?
