My attempts to generate one of the canned 'Historical NetFlow Reports' from Orion consistently gives a 'Request Timed Out' error. I've increased the timeout value in IIS to 600 seconds (10 minutes!) but still may encounter the timeout error. To verify this sub-optimal performance, I ran the sql query straight against the database. Sure enough, it does takes some time to generate this Netflow report...likely because of the numerous 'table view' lookups within the query.
So, my next idea was to setup a job in Report Scheduler. However, this also seems to time out as the RunOrionJob.Log shows;
3/28/2010 10:34:42 PM
Started Job-299419.OrionJob
3/28/2010 10:38:43 PM Error processing Job "NetFlow Top Apps in past 24 Hours"
Error downloading web page from solarwinds/.../Report.aspx
Operation aborted
The Report Scheduler doesn't appear to be using the values configured in IIS (10 minute timeout) as the log indicates that the job fails after only 4 minutes.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or suggestions.
