You can take a slightly higher risk approach and create your Sites table within SolarWinds database. I have seen many people just do that and SolarWinds will not overwrite or delete this table. But I just tend to keep everything separate to segregate my custom setup from what comes with SolarWinds install. Backup your DB…

From the below post it looks like automatic way can produce potential undesirable results. This way is guaranteed to produce exactly what you need. I have been running at 3 different SolarWinds instances with different set of nodes and geographical spread and I had no issues whatsoever so far. I wish this could be default…

Missed this reply, sorry. Why would I worry about them? Am not seeing something that you see? - your help is hugely appreciated to improve the above P.S. I have been running this for over 3 month now with no issues. Works like a charm - fully automated, no problems, does exactly what's expected and saves me tones of time…

Yes, there is. Does require a little script fiddling. Check this post: Check All Services Which Set To Automatic Mode Are Running

Check this post: Check All Services Which Set To Automatic Mode Are Running You can use "Message" variable to report on this

If you will implement this entire solution - you will get alerted on all your components as part of this solution. Feel free to ask me any questions

If you want email alert you still need to create it via Advanced Alert Manager. Create New Alert as minimum based on the following condition. Them under TRIGGER ACTIONS pick email and specify all further details...

Please use improved version, found here: Universal Disk Free Space Monitoring (One Template Will Handle All Logical Disks + Exceptions And Overrides)

I have dramatically improved monitoring script, by including warning/critical levels differentiation, ability to set exclusions, ability to set overrides, more robust error checks... etc Please find it here: Smartest Disk Size Monitoring Ever

Hi nutt It says it expects ")" at line 118. Have you modified my script at all? Maybe copy-paste didn't quite catch all characters. I have attached plain text file with script. Please try this one

Well, most likely reason is that you need to change Database reference in SQL query. There will be few places with database name. Just remove it, leaving table name only ("... FROM SolarWinds.dbo.Nodes ..."). Follow the below steps: In Nodes report you should have the following: * Line 43: FROM Nodes WITH(NOLOCK) * Line…

Have a look at this article here: Uncovering Polling Problems and Issues in Your Environment It has all reports you need attached. Run them and let us know if you get your problematic node highlighted. If not - we will need to understand a bit more about your particular circumstances - I would be very interested to find…

Indeed, thanks ">cscoengineer‌ for sharing Often device would appear green without any indication that polling is not working. I beleive this actually should be somehow addressed by the Orion platform itself, maybe having an additional state like "missing polls" or something like that. In addition to tracking last CPU we…

Haven't seen native yet

Interesting solution, thanks for sharing. I just wanted to chip-in and share basics - just for the record - some of you might find it useful as well: (1) In the alert body use this: <a href="https://SolarWindsServer-or-IP/Orion/NetPerfMon/AckAlert.aspx?AlertDefID=${SQL:SELECT AlertObjectID FROM AlertStatusView WHERE…

booooo .... you have been on Thwack for exactly 3 days mate...who are you?!?! (rhetorical question)

Thank you guys Looking forward for DR in multi-subnet deployments

Yes, there is a way. SolarWinds product development team is constantly engaging with Thwack forum members to showcase future concepts, improvements, gathering feedback on future UI, etc. They are really working full steam there to make it happen. There is only two step process to get to see it and get your hands on…

Hi michal.hrncirik​ I have completed this survey few weeks ago but still didn't receive anything with regards to trying EOC 2.0. Are you able to advise how do I proceed next to get this v2 package?

would you please clarify what you mean by "correct directory"? And were exactly you kept it before and after wizard run

ou wow, this is awesome. I will try now...

Hi Guys, In reply to my own question - I did some further digging and realised that this particular error might have some fixes and workarounds. I haven't tried it yet, but once my next deployment is up an running (few month down the line) I will update this thread with solution for this particular problem For now, I just…

I was actually trying to get it working on the newest version, but it would through an error (screenshot above). ekis​, are you observing same behaviour?

Hi Guys, This little gadget has been my little time-saver up until recently I have deployed latest SW version (December 2016, see version below). I was just wondering if this is just me or it is indeed broken in latest edition? SW Version: Orion Platform 2016.2.100, IVIM 2.1.2, DPA 10.2.0, NPM 12.0.1, QoE 2.2.0, NTA 4.2.1,…

ecklerwr1​, what do you mean by "stack pollers"? Can you now run multiple pollers on a single box (I must have missed something somewhere...)?

I took similar approach as well, described below: Automatically Update World Map Points Based On Custom Property Value

It definitely can. I have just tested on the same platform. What error do you get?

Hey Guys, just added one more "noise killer" report - grab your copy and have fun Repetitive Email Alerts (Noise) - MUST HAVE REPORT!!!

Hi Steven, good point, thanks. I will be including version from now on Scripts above mostly for NPM 11.0. I will need to adopt them for the latest 11.5 at some point, but the changes are minor. I am actually running into the problem of keeping up with schema changes every time there is a major SW release - I might need to…

Haha, I got into same trap - information was there, but I was reading in between the lines and simply missed it, following by wrong advise to prospective client. I would suggest to make licensing info in bold, as a separate bullet point in the above official article. Something like this? * Licensing and cost: HA is…
