UPDATE: I FOUND THE PROBLEM. I had the ExecuteExternalProgram action set to run as NetworkService. I changed that to use a service account we use for Solarwinds and it worked perfectly. Thank you all for the assistance. # Import the SolarWinds module Import-Module SwisPowerShell # Connection string try { $swis =…
Hoping I can get some insight on an issue I am running in to. I am using powershell and the swis module to automate several tasks in regards to creating a new node. Everything seems to work properly for me, however despite me adding a new volume (fixed disk), it doesn't automatically check that box under "List Resources" I…
Hello, It seems that something has changed or broken in the Orion SDK after we upgraded to 2023.3.1. Attempts to acknowledge or add notes to alerts via Powershell return errors. Orion.AlertStatus.Acknowledge failed, check fault information. Verb Orion.AlertStatus.Acknowledge: Cannot find assembly Orion.AlertStatus.AddNote…
This may seem like a silly question, but I simply cannot see a way to do the following with the SwisPowerShell module. 1. How can I query to ensure that the connection I made using Swis-Connect is actually connected and open. 2. How can I close an existing connection and then validate that it is closed? The Swis-Connect…
Hi Folks, I am trying to accomplish solarwinds node rediscovery process via SWIS. if i want to run the rediscovery for single/few nodes then it is running completely fine with below script. $username = "xxxx" $password = ConvertTo-SecureString "xxxxx" -AsPlainText -Force $creds = New-Object…
I am getting familiar with SwisPowerShell. I know how to set node properties but not sure how to go about setting the NCM component to "NEVER". I need to do this on too many machines so SwisPowerShell seems like a perfect fit. Anyone?
It seems like there's a large number of ways that Alerts and Actions in Orion can be set up where they don't actually do anything. Examples: Enabled alert config/definition with all actions disabled. Action with no ActionAssignment, Action that is only assigned to a disabled Alert config, impossible scheduling, email…
I was trying to figure out the discrepancy in why a SWQL query returned more GlobalProtect clients than the SNMP value returned by the firewall. In performing the query it appears as if sometime in June of last year a number of entries got "stuck" in Orion. They show as STATUS=1, meaning active VPN connections. I can…
Hi All, I am trying to bulk update group properties through SWIS using powershell. When I try to set the filter definition using a variable from a csv it creates the dynamic query but dumps all the 7 columns data into the query and changes the Orion Object to Address instead of SysName. If I replace '$SWSite.SiteCode' with…
Hi all, I work in an business which is too locked down for WMI, thus we use agents for virtually everything. I'm working on automating the node creation, agent install, volume and interface discovery and editing of the custom properties. While creating a short script to edit the custom properties for Volume Threshold…
