exactly ... So, this idea is to have some kind of predetermined variables, which we can then inject into templates, pretty much same as it is done with macro variables. My initial workaround was to implement this with the help of SQL macro, however, the code behind building an email body would not parse HTML tags as they…

Bang On! I have exactly same issue. I actually thought it was my browser, same as yourself. One thing to mention though - this issue only manifests itself with drop-down fields only. Someone may need to log this as a problem with Support

Thanks Leon, great read. Would you please be able to give a few references where do I learn more about #5 - Automatic Dependencies Mapping

Different objects (memory on nodes, cpu on nodes, interface utilisation, etc) can have different thresholds configured/overriden. In this case if we were to pull thresholds from objects themselves it would not necessarily work nicely here. I do however agree that having thresholds on the charts, independent of any other…

Hmmm... I just want to ignore any alerts from indexes with less than 1000 pages... Is this is the same? I have maintenance scripts/jobs running on SQL databases which would skip defragmentation if number of pages is less than 1000 (as per Microsoft recommendations)... How would I tell it to SAM not to alert on Indexes with…

here is a workaround until this is implemented: Effective Monitoring and Alerting on Running Copies of the Processes

I agree, thanks

Here is a possible solution: TIPS & TRICKS: Stop the madness! Avoiding alerts but continuing to pull statistics.

What is your concern my friend? Sounds like your UI is slow, is it? What version you are on? What is network response time between SolarWinds App server and your browser client? How browsing speed you have on site compares to the Demo when browsing and loading different pages? http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/ ... there are…

This can be done with simple SQL query. The result of the SQL output can be displayed as a resource with "Report from Orion Writer". Let me know if help needed...

Thank You AletrEgo Here is an additional info on how PAGES correlates to SIZE. For those of you who need 1000 pages threshold just set SIZE to 8000 Source (Microsoft Technet): Understanding Pages and Extents P.S. By the way, I don't know why, but in my environment this is only visible on Template and NOT on assigned…

nice one ... It is amazing how things can work-out in a long run. As Steve said "It is impossible to connect dots looking forward ... but it is very very clear when looking backwards"

bump up! P.S. Are there any quick workarounds available to clone views? Any SQL woodo?

Hey guys, you are SolarWinds engineers! I am sure you can come up with solution for this 150 points. Here is me in our server room Hope carpet manufacture, Clarks and Levi's won't mind...

bump up! The moment I add scheduled task resource on page - it immediately gets cluttered with those "Optimize Start Menu Cache" and there is no way to hide/exclude them. I know I can exclude them in the alert, but I need visual as well to be clean and tidy. We need a simply filter in this resource to allow to filter out…

You Freaking Rock!!! This is absolutely great and creative shot and I admire your skills to manage that many components. Are you looking for anyone to help? Unfortunately covered face brings some negative feelings and associations (maybe just me only). Try to stand facing back instead so that you are looking at the map,…

Below is a summary of what I am trying to achieve: My setup/workflow: * I am using dashboard for service desk as shown here, the top one - clean & simple: Here is my one - rotates between WAN (with interface utilisation) and Service Status (with configurable notes) * All balls & cubes on this dash are dynamic groups * I…

voted UP accidentally ... Why do you think it will be more useful? This is the same thing, just different angles Check this out: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2794#comment-178376

did you try this? Know Your Routing Neighbours

Hey wluther‌, thanks for mention. I somehow missed out on this thread... Custom Properties, I believe this is the greatest invention of the human kind . It is awesome to see so huge variety of use-cases and scenarios. Fits every hole indeed! Below are few examples from our setup: ENVIRONMENT (PROD; DEV; MGMT; TEST; etc) -…

Volume threshold must include % and MB checks (both!) - Right now volume thresholds overrides are only available for %. However, what I found is that by defining BOTH % and GB it is possible to have a single alert that can handle ALL disks at once - big and small and anything in between. Thresholds can be set to 95% AND…

That's great, thank, I will give it a try. We have quite complicated environment and a lot of nodes... We might need to implement this via group policies somehow. Anyway, I hope we will see ability to exclude scheduled tasks (or patterns) natively in SolarWinds

Wow, this is fascinating. I will send it over to our infosec guys - they will love it I cam across Yesterday a little "bot" button that I have never noticed before on my Skype.... This morning I got an automated reply from support team of another product, after I have raised a ticket with them, with signature below -…

clubjuggle‌, sorry, I obviously posted in wrong area, Please feel free to move. Thank you

Hi, I was just wondering if there are any ways to add records into IPAM when IP is not pingable but exists in DNS. We have OOB subnets and Network team is very strict with allowing any kind of traffic to there, including ping. So, we just need to have them in IPAM regardless of the ping, as long as they are in DNS. Is this…

I am a bit lost with replies to posts - is there a way to sort them by newest first by default? [update] actually, forgetaboutit. I think this is how it was anyways. I just need to figure out how do I catch-up with latest updates that are relevant to me. I think that notification bell next to profile picture will do the…

Exactly! Who cares about your title.... Pick your own and have some fun with it! Here is my one

Hi FamilyOfCrowes, Do you know of any decent solutions for this? I understand that needs to sit in between LEM and everything else I want to use LEM, but I also want to make sure we will not be stuck with it after configuring all our end nodes to report to it. We might outsource it in the future somewhere else.

I have never suggested this as a solution - please read my post again. It is merely an option for those folks for whom it may do good as many possibly looking for a way to silence certain alerts only. Side note: You have raised this 4 years ago and bumped it up 75 times (I counted). This reminds me of a famous definition…

What is the problem with the solution that I have proposed above? https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3454#comment-246774
