We have a node down alert but upon checking saw that device is reachable and working fine. For 30 min solarwinds server was not able to reach the device but after that it was able to reach the device and showed the correct status. 1> Why this happened? Why suddenly communication was lost from Orion server though device is…
Hello all, Does any one know what is the problem? Let's say I have a server monitored by SolarWinds APM, for example file server. And I want to be aware that I reached space issue for some volumes of the server. I'm looking a node status and node has green light - means node ok. Ok, let's scroll down a little bit to review…
Hi Folks, I have a weird problem. NPM shows device status warning but the physical devise is down. I have read a lot about Polling engine and the settings, but tuning the engine did not solve it. Two examples: A firewall is up and running. Then we take off that firewall (turned off) to test something. In Orion the firewall…
In NPM, when you set the device status via ICMP instead of the slower SNMP, a device still might shows as up, and the last polled data is being showed on the web page even if the SNMP service on this device is down or frozen. This can be confusing if, let's say, a server when in passive mode doesn't reply to SNMP. I…
Hello, Per a post I found elsewhere on Thwack () the status of a node's interfaces and volumes should affect the node's status. However, I have a node (lets call it FileServer1) that has a 100% full F: drive, and yet the node shows green status. Is there some sort of configuration setting that I may be missing?
I have tried to rediscover the node and tried "poll now" but still it does not appear in my Nodes With Problems page. This is a problem as I need to be sure of consistency in this Nodes With Problems view, this is bread and butter stuff. I had a problem recently where my top 10 errors and discards page was not updating…
Hi, I see couple of requests on how advanced polling or alerting can modify/affect the node status on GUI - ranging from 2008 to 2011.... Is it still not possible to make nodes or child status down if e.g. a UnDP Poller reaches a threshold or triggers an alert? Since there are different threads regarding this topic here is…
I would like to get alerts when a node is set to Unmanaged Status. I have my grouping by Country > City > Building > Comments (Servers). I would like the alert to be triggered when a Server in a particular City is set to Unmanaged Status. I setup a trigger condition that looks like this but it is not working. I have…
Hi, I was under impression, if a monitored component like CPU or Disk over the threshold and triggered an alert, the Server node icon will have a small yellow or red square next to it. But that doesnt seem to be the case. The node is showing perfectly green in NPM. With our Orion, it only happens when an application…
Hi All, I have been given the task of migrating our network monitoring over to NPM 10.2 - while this has gone smoothly (so far) I am getting alot of alerts over high response times. We monitor offices from one location all over the world and therefore we are expecting our latency to be higher than 200ms in some places…
