We're experiencing chronic intermittent alert flapping issues with SAM snmp-based process monitors on Linux managed nodes. The problem will occur and the monitor will flap back and forth between up and down status for a variable amount of time (30 min - an hour) and then suddenly stop. We have adjusted polling intervals,…
Been playing around with the AIX template. Noticed that there is a way to examine the "Top 10 active processes". This is encouraging, because what I'd like to do is count the instances of a specific process. We have some AIX boxes which run a specific daemon. If it ends up starting more than one of these specific daemon…
Being a SysAdmin, you might have to deal with unexpected requests and situations day in and day out, making your life quite challenging at times. In addition to dealing with haywire user requests, there are certain recurring system issues which do not help the situation. One issue you may have faced often is dealing with…
Hi!! How do you would design a map of monitored process per node,is possible? Image attached! Note: SolarWinds Latest version Thanks!
I recently worked with a client who was having an issue with web application performance running under Citrix. The way their application worked is that it ran an Internet Explorer instance on a Citrix server and they could tell when a customer was having performance issues when an instance of the Internet Explorer process…
I'd like to be able to report and alert on the number of instances of a particular process that is running on a group of servers. We have an application that create a new process for every core in a server and we'd like to see how many processes/cores we use over time to fine tune the application licensing. Anyone have…
When i run the counter for Process(sqlservr)\% Processor Time in permon on my SQL server, it agrregates the process across all cores. So if I have a 4 core CPU and SQL process is running 50% on each core, then value of the counter will be 200% while Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time would be 50%. How does APM measure the…
I have posted about this before, but its was never answered and so I thought I would repost within APM as that is more appropriate. We have a legacy monitoring system from Quest software called Big Brother - it mostly defunct these days as we got only the basic version and Solarwinds wipes the floor with it as it has not…
We are evaluating APM. The hope is to be able to monitor the functionality of an industry specific application. The simplest way would be to check if a particular process is in running state. Is there a way for APM to check for the running status of a particular process on a host? Also - when I tried to use select the SNMP…
I'm an Orion NPM and APM newbie, so bear with me. I appreciate any help you are able to provide. I have a user interested in monitoring all processes currently running on a server. In other words, he wants to be able to see all the processes that are running at that period of time - not just a process that has already been…
