We have Solarwinds pollers in multiple domains. The Healthcheck is showing DNS resolution errors for pollers that reside outside of the domain where the Orion server resides. Is anyone having similar issues and is there a resolution?
I have several nodes that under the node management section are only resolving as their IP. I have made sure that DNS entries are completed for these nodes. I have also noted that the only way for me to get those nodes to show up with the associated DNS entry is to delete them from LEM and allow it to re-find them. Is…
I need some help monitoring a node using DDNS. We are running Orion Network Performance Monitor 9.5 SP4. The node I am trying to monitor is a Cisco 2821 using a 3G WIC. The main problem of course is every time the IP address changes Orion NPM doesn't see the change so it shows it down. I have the Dynamic IP Address box…
We are creating monthly utilization report (Netflow) for users/host records using Orion Report Writer. However if we run report for same duration on different dates the host record captured in both reports doesn’t match. Looks to me like there is DNS record mismatch when the reports are created. is there any table that…
Running 5.4 I have a handful of nodes that are not resolving the node name, just shows IP. I pinged the hostname from the SSH CLI in appliance mode and it worked properly. Pinging address ap-exx-xxxxx-a--inside.net.nxxxx.com for 1 packets. [OK] Ping received from ap-xxx-xxxxx-a--inside.net.nxxxx.com cmc::acm# what can I do…
Hi Everyone, My team's managed to get an additional polling engined installed for our SAM installation. Our central Orion server is hosted on the internet and we've installed an additional polling engine on a private network successfully after allowing inbound traffic over the internet to the Orion server for TCP 17777 and…
Hello, Do you think of a creative way to get an alarm when a device broadcast an hostname that is different than the DNS entry using NPM? Thanks
Why does NPM store the IP rather than use DNS for polling? It's not a big deal but anytime we change an IP, we have to go into Orion to update the node with the new IP.
I have reports I've set up that retrieve the Top 50 NetFlow Receivers for certain IP address ranges, and the report populates with the Byte count and IP addresses. Then I added a column to display the Full_Hostname, and some addresses are resolved to names while others aren't - they just show the IP address. All these…
I need to be able to enter hosts to be monitored that have real world DNS names. For example, if we have a server out on the open internet whose name is mysever.mycompany.com. I would like to enter that name rather than always having to enter the IP addresses. How do we do this in Orion NPM? Thanks
