Thanks for anyone's help in advance as I am struggling with my first attempt at creating a network map. So on our main Solarwinds dashboard we have a piece which shows the network utilisation of our various site MPLS links. This is the overall utilisation of the link from all sources. I wanted to reflect this on a network…
Currently it seems an account needs 'Node Management Rights' to get to the management page. * //ServerName/Orion/Nodes/Default.aspx * *This page needs to be available to all users with the option 'Allow Account to Unmanage Objects' enabled It's quite cumbersome to have to click open each node and choose the unmanage option…
EDIT: .XLS is 1997 and 2003 extension. The fact that SolarWinds uses this for their converter is almost like saying SolarWinds is living in the stone age. .XLSX is the new standard and does not have the character limit we hit when trying to run large reports. It's understandable if development chose to use the old format…
I have a Netpath connection from my Solarwinds Orion server to a customer. This first connection on the path shows a 30% packet loss w/ 13ms latency. This is my local firewall. Pinging the firewall from my Solarwinds Orion server directly reports back 1ms, and no packet loss. Any ideas? The reason in the image for the…

But my unix admin was about to modify the snmp config file and now hp ux monitors correctly. 2. Some linux servers are not monitoring correct, and others are but display…
Hello, I work in a secure, paranoid environment. Solarwinds will be fired up shortly. There are security concerns regarding where to place the SW servers in the network since they'll be able to communicate with virtually every device, particularly Internet edge routers, firewalls, and switches. Have you placed your SW…
Monitoring is the strongest point that SolarWinds has going for it. But flip that and look at the management side of the software and it leaves more to be desired from a highly respected and rated software. If the software is packaged as a suit of both strong monitoring and management tools it would not just be easier for…
Useful query for identifying ifIndex of monitor interfaces when you are creating custom pollers. Developed for use on Junos, can be adapted for any OS. SELECT N.sysName, InterfaceID, Index, Name, Alias FROM Orion.NPM.Interfaces as I, Orion.Nodes as N WHERE I.Name LIKE 'ge-[0-1]/0/[0-9].[2-3]%' AND I.NodeID = N.NodeID OR…
