Do you have UDT or just NPM?

I currently use Ansible to WINRM to my primary poller and then run everything via powershell script. Been using the Ansible module for windows powershell so the script is only in memory and not kept locally. This has worked well for my framework with my primary needs being querying IPAM. I have started expanding to do…

Hey, little late to this party but my whole automation workflow is using Ansible to then interface with the solarwinds api via powershell. I have written out playbooks on doing the ip reservations. I also have plays on querying ipam based on comments but can be done with any parameter. Ive been doing this the past 1.5…

Funny you say that because Im the in house guy for a large fortune 500 company and while its a "shared" responsibility overall Im the one that grabbed it by the horns and wanted to automate things. Im the 5th guy in the last 6-7 years that has administered it directly and for the longest period of time too being 3.5 years…

You have been a life saver with those scripts of yours. Your Dependencies scripts I modified some for my environment and MAN! It is a life saver and I have it running daily at 7AM via Ansible. Going to be reviewing your discovery script examples as well because this has been a thorn in me and my teams side for years. We…

Currently only way to get the functionality similar for at least links is to fake it with above method. More complex HTML needs are sadly not able to be performed at this time.

For my SolarWinds environment I went to the above linked thwack discussion that was done by @"ecmel" and followed the procedure outlined here: Importing/Exporting Modern Dashboards by @"KMSigma.SWI" Afterwards, I customised further to meet my needs. While my dashboard looks similar to what @"ecmel" created it is quite…

I have one main dashboard that started out very much like the NPM Summary Replacement from the All In on Modern Dashboards post - All in on Modern Dashboards | THWACK - Newsroom - Hybrid Cloud Observability - THWACK (solarwinds.com). I just added to it and customized it to fit my organizations needs. We have a very small…

Yea, I've been migrating as much as I can to Modern Dashboards the last 2 months and while they are nice there are some things that are lacking. Such as data limits and obfuscations etc. Hopefully we get some ability to do so soon without having to hard code it ourselves.
-
You might be able to do some obfuscation in the SWQL Query itself on a duplicated dashboard for presentation purposes like what @"adam.beedell" suggested. You could do something like a WHEN THEN case structure in the SWQL Query so it looks something like below. CASE WHEN "insert matching property here" = '' THEN 'REDACTED'…

SWEETNESS! I have been looking for a hack way to do this since there are obvious limitations in the type of widgets on Modern Dashboards. This was probably the biggest limitation for one of my departments homepages that I would like to replace. Appreciate the showcase of knowledge on circumventing the limitations!
-
This has given me an idea for my own environment so if I figure it out on a modern dashboard I will share what I come up with.
-
Curious which route you went but I can echo what others have stated already. We used either our local site's domain controller or another server with enough memory to point back to our core for the WAN to WAN monitoring that we wanted. So far its been insighful but due to the use of ICMP metrics in the packet loss…

I jumped from 2020.2.6 HF5 to 2023.4.2 last month and it was PAINFUL. I only ran into one issue with this and that was due to an error in the Cortex logs of our primary poller. Restarted all services after seeing it was a cortex error and have been fine since. However, I have heard and was warned by our company's…

HA! You are awesome!!! The below section from my alert works and the only issue I had was the UTC generated time from ExecutedAt was showing to be in the evening. I did the ToLocal conversion below and it works!!! Still learning all of the in's and out's of SWQL and WOW its always the simple solutions lol. Greatly…

For now, I have rewritten this to perform a SWQL call to get URI of specific IP address in IPAM then use CRUD call to IPAM.IPNode to set the status to what I want. Example code in case anyone is interested: 1. Get-swisdata -swisconnection $swis -Query "SELECT DISTINCT IPAddress, uri FROM IPAM.IPNode WHERE IPAddress LIKE…
