Just for the record, the primary poling engine alone can poll as many elements as an additional polling engine ie: 12.000 elements. Therefore, if you're only going to be using 8 of the 9 polling engines then you'll end up with a polling capacity of 96,000 elements total, not 120,000. You will only be able to reach 120,000…

MS SQL Express 2008 installation issue during eval install

Michal, I hope you can confirm the issue of monitoring a DHCP server that is currently assigned to an additional polling engine. Really need to get some attention to this a.s.a.p...

Spoke to soon. On closer inspection, the nodes whose CP is Service 2 are not listed!

Andy, "When you install the additional polling wizard the assignment to the main poller is done in the installer before CW is run" Although this seems logically sound, this is not the way it is done. The polling engine checker or (where you type in the IP/Hostname of the primary server and login credentials) is only there…

If your custom views are based on custom properties then "all" you'd have to do is add custom properties to the nodes and or interfaces to the newly added nodes. Once that is done, custom views - presuming they are the same on both systems - will show the same details. If the custom views are not the same then you'd have…

Hi, Thanks for pointing this out. I thought we were using TCP/IP by default since we are connecting to the SQL server using IP address instead of hostname/FQDN. I had to confirm after reading your post. I executed the SQL query that Jeremy posted and everything is listed as TCP under net_transport. I then followed your…

The closest I can get to displaying the ID is by using a Custom Table but you can't include results from the Custom Table into a custom URL. The new variable doesn't work either ${N=OrionGroup; M=GroupID} It doesn't look like its possible...

32GB should be enough considering the type and amount of queries that will be targeting the SQL server. If you were monitoring and managing upwards of 10k elements then you might need more, but that also depends on how fast the underlying storage is. Furthermore, your NTA data will have to be moved to a dedicated Flow…

Hi, Is the Custom Property referenced here a Node Custom Property or an Alert Custom Property. I haven't had any luck with any of the two.

Those look like interface counters (if), not flow...

I ran sythentic transactions against the front end before during and after monitoring the counters. Here are the results: More to follow. Will look at the queries next. EDIT: The numbers seemed unusually low. It turns out the front end is using ASP.NET v4. Need to rerun tests.

Thanks, I'll create some jobs to monitor and trend these counters. Will get back with my findings once done.

You will need to find the right WBEM provider for your server model(s) and install them. I'm not quite sure whether you'll get Hardware Health through SNMP or not since the WBEM provider uses the CIM service. In that case, after installing make sure that the CIM server service and Firewall rule in the ESXi security…

FYI, it was more complicated in previous versions. The steps back then required you to use a tool called Load Balancer after running Configuration Wizard, to assign your Nodes to the new (new IP) Polling Engine. Since 10.2 that tool has been removed and you can now do it via the web console :) You're welcome.

Hi, I've gone through the steps and have a few questions. 1. At Rule Creation, when selecting Any Instance (circled in image), will this still work when adding new storage arrays that aren't currently present in Storage Manager? 2. What is the Operation Status looking at exactly (circled in image), is it the integer or the…

Hi, I wish to monitor all disk related events using the storage tool, Storage Manager. The arrays in use vary between IBM, LSI, EMC, NEC, NetApp, SUN etc. No equallogic array i'm afraid. I'd greatly appreciate it if I could get an official guide from SolarWinds for this.

Hi Jiri, I am familiar with the way that it works now in the new NCM, but there is still a disconnect between the two modules that almost didn't exist before. With the new NCM, there is now a manual process that is required to carry out. - We need the manually imported nodes to be added automatically to NCM through a Job.…

Thanks but that is still a manual process. I need it to be automatic.

Excellent, thanks!

Note to self and others. Since HA 2018.2, after applying an HA license to an APE server, the APE licenses previously assigned get un-assigned. The correct way to license APE servers that are stacked when using HA is: 1. Assign HA Licenses 2. Assign APE licenses to the HA Pool

You nailed it! Great feedback, thanks :)

Turns out an GE SNMP card for one of our UPS'es caused the crash in the records when being polled by Orion. 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.2 http://www.geindustrial.com/cwc/Dispatcher?REQUEST=PRODUCTS&id=snmp When excluding it from the discovery list, the interfaces are listed fine.

287252 Will do, thanks!

Thanks again. I'll try this query for a few weeks and report back.

Thanks for the reply. Fo what it is worth, here's what i did prior to getting the error. On the Orion server, i created the recording. As soon as i saved the recording - and before being prompted to launch the web console to choose where to play the recording, i got a program access prompt in Windows. Its the prompt that…

Hi, I'm on 12.4 2019.2 HF3 and can't find the Status Summary Widget. Is this something that will be available in a future release? Also, I appreciate the resource's ability to be customized with SWQL, as this gives a lot of flexibility for those that need it. But how about including a basic filtering option where one could…

Awesome, thanks!

I just noticed that if an object triggered 0 alerts in the last 7 days while having triggered say 12 alerts in the last 30 days then the entry doesn't show up. Same goes the other way around. If an object triggered 0 alerts last month but did in fact trigger a couple alerts in the last 7 days then it won't show up. It's as…
