This was actually one of the few reasons we could not pursue WHD as a viable solution for our business. As a government entity, that has both civil and public safety departments, we have to be able to customize and prioritize differently than a "normal" corporation would.

Yep, definitely looks to be duplicate. I guess I didn't get the "right" search terms. At least it is being worked on. Thanks, Chris Davis

Romeo, Glad to hear that it (mostly) works for you. What versions are you running? I am wondering if the updates that we have deployed didn't do just what you said and break something.

"fix" no, provide solutions that work for the issue that they (in this case I) have with the product sure. If I don't like something about a product, I think it shouldn't be unreasonable that I not only say "I don't like ___" but also include "Here's what I would do differently about ___". It's entirely up to the company…

My original attempt was successful by simply adding a duplicate of the SummaryView entry under the <viewtypes> section. <viewtypes> <type name="NOCView" pagePath="/Orion/NetOpCenter/NOCView.aspx" userProperty="SummaryViewID" description="NOC View" friendlyName="NOC View" /></viewtypes> However, something either changed or…

I've tried "Status<>1" and "ChildStatus<>1". If there is a primary type (ie "Node") for Thin Access points, I can't find it.

MarieB, you seem to agree with bshopp. What filter should I be employing on the "Top XX Wireless APs by Client Count" resource that will show me only the down/troubled APs?

I'm working on what I can do to "clean up" some of the CSS as well. I hate it when people bring problems without any idea of potential solutions, so I'm trying to not do that here. I hope to have something in the next couple of weeks (since my "day job" gets in the way of my playing around).

Interesting... but that makes since.

I have used the "Top XX Wireless APs by Client Count" as a basis, however any filter I use in conjunction with it seems to eliminate everything from the list. The "Top 10 Wireless APs by Client Count" resource doesn't allow me to even set a filter. Am I doing something wrong?

Yeah, I was able to get the view to show up when I modify the orion.config file... I was just really trying to avoid it. At this point, unfortunately, I think you're correct in that creating a seperate "module" just isn't possible without much more effort or insight.

The view that I'm working on will, eventually, have more than the standard 1-3 column layout. Also, the "default" Summary View uses a javascript timeout to refresh the page. My goal is to have a view that uses AJAX to update the components within it in "real-time" without the need for a whole page refresh. The idea is to…

I can't really say. We know it doesn't work at the 'login:' prompt for our Cisco equipment. Don't really have any place else to test with, but I would imagine that it's across the entirety of the interface.

I don't know if a Feature Request would quite be the thing here... it's almost a bug. I did a quick analysis of the CSS and I can't help but wonder what was going on. I attached the CSV file to the main post as I didn't notice the "advanced editor" option for replies until later. The font-size definitions are all over the…

Looks like you have to have Organization Management permission in order create a new throttling policy (Client Access Permissions: Exchange 2010 Help). If you aren't the Exchange Admin, chances are you won't have that. I do everything here, so I didn't even think about that part. Just ask your Exchange admin to make the…

I've posted the current project here:

Unfortunately, the browser zoom doesn't address the issue within a resource. It's not just the text size, but the padding and margins too. An example for us is the Active Alerts resource. We have it on a summary view in a column that's 450px wide. With NPM 11.x, this was fine. Sure some of the text wrapped, but we were…

When in the application details view and clicking on "Poll Now". It's really weird because, I don't see any error entries for any automatic/scheduled polling times... just when manually triggered.

No, we never did figure out a way to do this. Our goal was to have an element on a summary view that showed "down" or problematic APs akin to what we have with Nodes and Applications. But there just doesn't seem to be a way to do this unfortunately.

I see where I can filter on the Wireless view page, but what I'm tring to do is have the listing of access points filtered within a summary view. Currently, I'm able to get all of my thinAP's listed via a Custome Object Resource element, but it doesn't give me a way to filter them. I'm trying to show just my down (or…

This post is for a custom built, prototype that I created prior to the release of NPM 10.7 (which introduced an official NOC view feature). The official NOC view is available in NPM 10.7, the Administrators Guide can be found here.

The latest update that won't blow up your system is posted above. I'm currently working on a couple of additional resources that work in conjunction with the view to make things more real-time. As well as trying to figure out how to extend the column count beyond the 3 limit imposed by the base summary view. I've had mixed…

There isn't any "installation" as of yet. Right now it is a stand-alone web app that uses SWIS to call back and get the object statuses. I'm not a programmer by any definition, so all of this is just an exersise in trying to come up with something that may get a "real" programmer started.

Navigate to the Manage Pollers screen within Orion: Settings > All Settings > Manage Pollers If you have downloaded, but haven't already imported the poller configuration: - Click on the "Import" button and select the file. If you haven't downloaded or imported: - Click on the "Thwack Community Pollers" tab, find the…

I've updated my NOC View posting to have the new view type and resources that I'm working on... http://thwack.solarwinds.com/docs/DOC-157771 Once I can get the view showing up in the Add View page, I think it will be smooth sailing from there.

I hate to bump this, but I really am hoping for some sort of answer, even if it's "don't do that" from the Solarwinds guys... I have the module mostly built using the following file/folder structure: \Orion\NetOpCenter \Controls \PageHeader.ascx \PageHeader.ascx.cs \styles \blank.cur \NOCLayout.css \NOCView.aspx…

I don't know if it's concidered uncouth or in violation of the rules, but I've finally got a working starting point for what I'm calling my Orion NOC application and am willing, if people want it, to post the source files here. Basically, it's just a ASP.NET web application using SWIS to get the data and display it in some…

@mdriskell, @byrona, I agree with both of you. There are many ways to accomplish a NOC view (I've even employeed some of the ones suggested). I'm just thinking that it shouldn't be necessary to work outside of Orion in order to acheive, what to me seems to be, a primary purpose of the product. I would like to see a more…

I apparently never posted the solution that I found... my bad. The issue is that when displaying a query result, the "Custom Query" resource requires that the first column to contain sort-able values that are non-calculated (read directly queried values). A blank or space isn't, so it fails. The way I was able to get…

When trying to use the new SSH client, it appears that the "." (dot / period) character is not accepted. Is this by design or a bug that we should work with support on? For us, since we use the character in our user names, it's a deal breaker to not have that key.
