Last month, I had the pleasure and the privilege of sitting down with Ethan Banks and Greg Ferro of PacketPushers.net, to share some of my thoughts on monitoring, business justifications, the new features of NPM 11.5, and life in general. You can listen to the conversation here : Show 225 – SolarWinds on The Cost of…
I’ve been with SolarWinds going on 8 years now, working with the Support Team, so it came as no surprise to me when I saw how many of you answered our poll last month that Alerts, specifically, filtering out the noise from the real issues, was your top priority problem to solve in the next 30 days. So, with that in mind,…
If a node poller (settings -> Manage Pollers) is assigned to a node then it cannot be edited or even viewed. Should be able to do the following: a) view the settings on an assigned node details poller b) rename node details poller c) alter configuration [note: you can Duplicate & Edit the poller and then view its settings,…
I have a Custom Property for an Alert (not a node or interface) called "Notification_Type" which can be set to "Page", "Email", or "None".

Hello, I would like to see more in depth videos on NPM. This software is a beast and i think that more how to videos are in order.
Hello all, I want to thank those that released the SDK. It's a great tool and we've used it extensively. We have a powershell script, using v1.10.16.0 of the SDK, which we use to add nodes, setup pollers, and set the nodes Custom Properties. After upgrading Orion Network Performance Monitor from 11.0.1 to 11.5 values for…
I am wondering if anyone has a good way of going about displaying a network map per switch. I am okay making the maps per switch but, displaying them when I go to the node summary page is not user friendly. If I customize the page and add a map view then it shows the same map on all nodes with the same view. Is there a way…
