I have the need to change the polling frequencies of hundreds of nodes when they get added to Solarwinds so have created a script to do this. I have a Powershell script which updates the node and interface polling frequencies which is working fine. I also need to update the Hardware health and Routing Polling frequencies.…
The following are Hardware Health (Node) variables which can be used with alerts. Overall Hardware Status (Node): ${N=SwisEntity;M=HardwareInfo.CategoriesWithProblems} ${N=SwisEntity;M=HardwareInfo.CategoriesWithStatus} ${N=SwisEntity;M=HardwareInfo.DetailsUrl} ${N=SwisEntity;M=HardwareInfo.FullyQualifiedName}…
We are currently looking into some of our servers that are not managed by Hardware Health in Orion, and am just looking for a bit of advice on it if anyone has any ideas/resolutions? It is mainly HP Servers NON-ESX models and Gen 9 or older, that we are having issues with. The SolarWinds help page points you to install the…
Hi All, Does anyone know how to include the mebers of the HA pair and the Storage shelf name inside an email alerts. So far I have it working just with the Cluster name and the disk name that is down. However it would be useful if I could get the HA Pair details and then which shelf its on. The information is there so I…
Currently, we are dealing with Huawei S5720 and S12708 Switches, we are required to monitor Power Supply/Status and Hardware health of the Switches. However, we noticed that SolarWinds is not supported by Default. We try using Universal Device Poller to solve the issue but we try all the OID value provided by the THWACK…
While working on an Orion implementation, and I ran into the appearance of a bug with VMWare 6.5 related to Hardware health polling. Hardware health in ESX 6.5 appears to be broken, but actually the services needed need to be configured to work correctly. This is a new change done in 6.5. Issue Identified: VMWare ESX 6.5…
I have been assigned a task to monitor the hardware health of all of our servers. We have Dell and HP servers installed at our end. Dell monitoring is somewhat fine and I am getting the desired results as for dell monitoring you only need to install one agent but for HP it is giving me a hell of headache. One have to…
I have a last 25 events window in my dashboard/homepage. Occasionally I see "Hardware health monitoring on XXXXXXXXX is up" This suggests to me that it was down and Solarwinds is telling me that it is now back up? However I didn't see the node it was associated with going down so why would I see such a message?
Does anyone have a way of editing / altering the default Orion Thresholds for Hardware health? With several hundred nodes and each with multiple sensors, it would be more efficient to alter a global setting rather than go sensor by sensor. I have been poking around but it's only a matter of time before I push the wrong…
I have 4 Nodes in my environment using WMI as their Polling Method and that have seen Hardware Health collection data. These are Dell PowerEdge 2950 and R310 physical servers and are running Windows 2008 R2 (1 Standard and 3 Enterprise). I also have another 138 Nodes polling with WMI that do not see Hardware Health data.…
