  • JNelson, It appears the preconfigured reports will use the Interface Description as the Graph Title. This cannot be modified. However, we can work around this by creating a custom report and requesting it via the Dashboard, instead of the preconfigured report. By default, custom reports will use the Monitor name within the…
  • Hi Jon, I've been attempting to replicate this behavior to no avail. At this point I would like to have a look at a packet capture of the request from ipMonitor and the response from the public web site. In order to do this, can you possibly open a case using the following page: http://www.solarwinds.com/support/ticket…

  • Ronny, Have you tried using the Exchange 2008 Monitor against your Exchange 2010 server? As far as I know, they both use the same WMI classes. Let me know, Chris Foley - SolarWinds - Support Specialist Support:866.530.8040 || Fax:512.857.0125 network management simplified | solarwinds.com
  • A Monitor in a Down state is defined as a Monitor that is failing and has triggered Alerts. If an Alert is based on a SmartGroup of Monitors that are in a Down state, you are creating a Catch 22. The Monitor is not "Down" because it has not triggered Alerts. The Monitor has not triggered Alerts because it is not "Down".…
  • Hello Humc, To accomplish this, you need 2 Rules: 1. Replace "Threshold Unit" by Overwrite. Replace with MB. 2. Replace "Min Threshold" by Overwite. Replace with [x]. **where [x] is desired value in Megabytes. Sincerely, Chris Foley | Support Representative SolarWinds | IT Management, Inspired By You Support:866.530.8040…
  • Hi Simonpt, You are correct and my previous response was not entirely accurate. After much digging I did find an existing bug submitted in January. Unfortunately, this bug had a very low number of cases assigned to it, therefore, it's priority was set lower than other more critical or "popular" issues. For some reason,…
  • Kapcreations, As per the SOAP documentation, you'll want to use the following: For Status information: http://[ipMonitorAddress]/soap/status.asmx For Configuration information: http://[ipMonitorAddress]/soap/config.asmx Sincerely, Chris Foley - SolarWinds - Support Specialist Support: 866.530.8040 | Fax: 512.857.0125…

  • Hi sspca, Try opening a CMD window on the ipMonitor system and running the following command: c:\winnt\system32\cscript.exe c:\[path]\perfmon_process.vbs [system] iexplore.exe * [path] being the full path to to the perfmon_process.vbs script * [system] being the IP or host name of hte Windows 2000 system Do keep in mind…

  • Hi chaldz, My apologies, I thought you wanted to view the Monitors that were currently in a down state and that had gone into that down state in the past hour. At this time it is only possible to filter Monitors on their current state. Sincerely, Chris Foley - SolarWinds - Support Specialist Support: 866.530.8040 | Fax:…
  • Hello Tribeca-IT, I found the following article for Orion: http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/3115/Enabling+audible+alerts+%28Play+a+Sound+action%29+on+Windows+Server+2008 Can you try triggering the batch file referenced in this article using the External Process Action and see if it works. Let me know. Thank…
  • Chaldz, Based on the contents of your log file, it appears you were experiencing the same issue in ipMonitor 10, 10.5 and 10.5.1. So it does not appear to be a version-specific issue. Having that said, I have some questions: 1. If you click "About" on the top-right, how many monitors does it say you have? 2. What operating…
  • Hi Global-e, You would have to add to the script in order to request the memory usage of the process. If you do write something of this nature, please feel free to share with the community.

  • Hi bman1978, Can you also run the following command within the same CMD window: ipmext_wmi.exe [MonitorName] Thanks again, Chris Foley - SolarWinds - Support Specialist Support: 866.530.8040 | Fax: 512.857.0125 network management simplified | solarwinds.com
  • Hi bman1978, Assuming your ipMonitorSrv service is still running as a local account and the SQL/Exchange Server Monitors are still using a domain admin credential, can you try the following: 1. Log in to the ipMonitor web interface, open the settings page for one of the failing SQL/Exchange Server Monitors. 2. Click on the…
  • Hello euphorik, At this time there is no way to view the ipMonitor dashboard without providing login information. The only way to automatically provide this information is via SOAP calls. See following page: https://support.ipmonitor.com/devdocs/706bd93851694ff2827c057e930b0dbb.aspx We also have an application which can…
  • This is currently not possible, however, you can group the SmartGroups within a main group and make the main group dependent on one or more Monitors. I realize this is not ideal, but it brings you very close to what you need. Sincerely, Fodome.
  • Hi Bill, For systems outside of ipMonitor's domain, you will need to replicate a local Windows account on the ipMonitor system and the remote system with the same credentials. Then, setup an ipMonitor Credential to use this local account and assign it to the External Process Monitor. More on this is found here:…
  • Cipher, A few things to check: 1. Open the Settings page for the Monitor that failed to notify you. Click "DownTime Simulator" at the top of this page and see if the Alert/Actions are getting triggered while in the light-red state. 2. Check the text within the "Send Failure Notification" text box. Could there be something…
  • Ekrengel, If you simply want to backup the configurations and not the statistics, perform the following: * Click "Configuration" tab. * Click "Scheduled Maintenance Tasks" * Click "Recurring Internal Maintenance" * Insert a check for "Archive ipMonitor Configuration" * Next to "Encrypt Credential", click the "Select"…
  • Grodech, You need to scroll up to the top of the Monitor list. Sincerely, Fodome
  • The "Devices" tab only exists within ipMonitor version 9. It's web interface is broken down into 4 sections (tabs). -Dashboard: Where you get a summary of the Monitors and Devices of the group you are viewing. -Devices: Typically this is the tab used to configure your Monitors, Devices and Groups. -Reports: This is where…
  • Here's what you do: * Click the "Devices" tab. * Click "All Managed Devices" * Select the Device you wish to add the SNMP Trap Monitor to. * Click "Add -> Add New Monitor" * On the left-hand side, click "SNMP" * On the right-hand side, click "SNMP Trap". * From here, match the settings with the values seen in snmptrap.log…
  • Hi Chaldz, The generic IfOperStatus should work against your Cisco devices: 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 Simply use this within the "Custom SNMP (Wizard)" Monitor. Enjoy. Chris Foley

  • Hi nok_emp, Indeed, the Custom Property Editor is in the SolarWinds Orion application. In order to mass-add/mass-edit tags, simply click the "Devices" tab and click "Edit -> Mass-Edit -> Monitor Tags". This will give you the option to chose a tag and mass edit it, or simply add a tag to all Monitors. If you have any…
  • Hi Kris, The ability to simply add a Monitor to all Devices is something we are looking at and something I would personally like to see added to a future version of ipMonitor. For now, the second best is as follows: * Add one Monitor to a Device * Clone it * Orphan it (see first parth of…
