Hi everyone, I’m facing a peculiar issue with SolarWinds and would appreciate any insights or suggestions from the community. Issue: Whenever I add the “Planned Alert Suppression” column to the Manage Nodes page, the search functionality breaks. I'm unable to search for nodes via IP or name, and I receive the following…
Many users out there are using Dynamic Query groups to automatically sort their nodes into groups as they are added to the platform for monitoring. This is great for managing large environments. However, one of the downsides to this is setting up automated maintenance windows for these groups. If you've used the Unmanage…
In my environment we have Windows event log monitoring in place for disk timeout events (warning ID 153). We also have automation in place that creates an incident ticket when an alert is generated (script event action). Challenge: usually when one disk timeout event occurs we get a lot of them (repeated occurrences of the…
Hi, I managed to mute alerts using SwisPowershell but when I check the Orion.AlertSuppression table, I still see the suppressions that have expired. Does it clear itself after some time, or do I have to manually resume the alerts to only have the active suppressions? Many thanks,
Here's my take on a recurring, scheduled maintenance window for applications. We've got a hot/cold environment for one of our big in-house applications that rotates every two weeks. Unmanage: #Add-Pssnapin swissnapin Import-Module SwisPowerShell $start = (Get-Date).ToUniversalTime() $end = $start.AddDays(14) $swis =…
Hi all, I am currently using a powershell script and the SDK to suppress alerts for a bunch of servers in my environment. I have two questions: 1.) It takes upwards of 7 minutes for the script to finish setting the alert suppression for the 215 servers. Is there a way to speed this up. I am using the following powershell…
Is there a way to have multiple entries scheduled for maintenance for a device? i.e., we have a device that has downtime Monday and Thursday of same week. It appears to me when you schedule Maintenance mode from the Manage Nodes view, the last one you enter is the only active window. thanks larry
I've successfully used the swis API to invoke SupressAlerts for a node (uri) but the supression state is not reflected in Web Console. I can Invoke GetAlertSupressioState and use SWQL Studio to check that indeed the node has Alerts Suppressed. (Not sure it if matters, but I did not provide any from or until parameters,…
Hi guys, Could anyone please share screenshots of their trigger condition for an alert that is suited to mute Down alerts on Child objects that are down? I have a dependency where a router is the parent and a group is the child. I only wish to receive alerts when the router is down and suppress the hundreds of alerts I…
Hello, Have a question about suppressing alerts after they already happened. For example, when a switch goes down, we get multiple alerts coming in for each device that lost connectivity. This is to be expected since we have alarms already setup for up/down of the connected devices and the switch itself. The problem is,…
