Hi everyone, I’m trying to monitor interface health by calculating error and discard percentages in SolarWinds — specifically to alert when: InErrors%, OutErrors% InDiscards%, OutDiscards% are greater than 1%. I created a SWQL query to calculate these percentages using packet counters like unicast/non-unicast packets.…
Can out-of-the-box OIDs be unmonitored from interfaces? (No joy using the PollerCheckerTool.exe)
We have several "Bundle" interfaces that show high numbers of discards but their associated individual interfaces are showing 0. These are Cisco 9000 series devices. Bundle Interface 1 Interface 2 Has anyone seen this? Where are the stats pulled from Cisco? And of course, the big question, how to resolve and/or understand…
Hey everyone, I know that sometimes, depending on the MIB table of the device, NPM can report discards on an interface indicating a link issue. However in actuality it could be normal device operation. I am running into that situation with several sets of ASA-5505's. In our environment, we utilize many ASA platforms, from…
I've found that there is no option to properly alert on interface error changes (deltas) within a given time period. I'm seeing that Solarwinds out of the box keeps trap of errors within the past hour or today, and wondering if anyone has found a solution to monitor and alert on errors incremented within a x time period?…
Hello, I was looking at the Network tab on NPM and I noticed the resource "High Discards & Errors Today" was pretty much a list of every single F5 load balancer in the network, with discards numbering in the millions. My gut says that must be reporting incorrectly. Is there a known issue or a suggested way of verifying…
High volume of transmit discards being report to orion. This information does not match what is found on the switch. No idea why such an alarming rate is being recorded. Is there any valid explanation why this is being reported?
I have an alert setup that sends an email when transmits and/or receive discards have reached at least 100 for the hour. The problem i am having is that the email keeps getting sent over and over again, with the same number of discards for the hour. I only want the alert to trigger when the number of discards has changed;…
Hello, I'm fairly new to this community so i apologize in advance if this is a repost, though all the answers I could find did not really tackle this problem. I have High Receive Errors in many interfaces - not discards, errors ! - but on the network equipment everything seems to work just fine. We have the NPM 10.2.1, can…
I would like a feature that you can see more precisely what are the "Errors and Discards." In this feature, when clicked on the number of errors (red) is shown a page with details of errors / discards, informations like: WHAT IS CAUSING THE ERROR/DISCARD | WHAT TYPE OF ERROR/DISCARD | WHY THIS ERROR/DISCARD IS APPEARING…
