Hello sbarden, There were no changes made to the ipMonitor Event Log Monitor between version 8 and 9. As a result, the following ipMonitor 8 article is also valid for ipMonitor 9: http://support.ipmonitor.com/helps/8b980326971d4cbc88ec362af0bec04f.aspx There are currently 3 different options within this Monitor: * Combine…

Hello BTSPaul, Conventionally, there is no way to do this. As the External Process Action can only be triggered for failures/recoveries and the Event Log Monitor does not fail or recover. Unconventionally, you could configure ipMonitor to log the Event Log match to a log file using the Text Log Action and then use the…

Hi Eric, Disk Queue Length is found within the SNMP informant MIB. The OID for it is 1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.1.1.7. You can see the branch here: http://support.ipmonitor.com/mibs_byoidtree.aspx?oid=1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.1.1.7#h Keep in mind that you will need to install the SNMP Informant agent on the remote system in order…

Rufus, This is not possible with any Network Monitoring Software. As UDP is a sessionless protocol where blind requests are sent and hope is used to get a response, the only way to test if something is responding on a specific UDP port is to know how to communicate with it. For example, in order to test if SNMP is…

Hello rjl, At this time there is no way to monitor a file using a variable for the file name. This has been requested as a feature request (TT #298 for internal folks). In your particular situation, you could workaround this by configuring IIS to log to extend.log. As a result, the current log file will always be…

Hello mstampfle, In order to successully control services remotely, you need to make sure that the following ports are open over TCP: -139 -445 In order to test this, you can open a CMD prompt on the ipMonitor system and run the following command: -To stop a service: sc [ip] stop [service name] -To start a service: sc [ip]…

Hello all, I worked on a similar case in November. Using a packet capture application, we determined that the SNMP queries were being sent via the second NIC as soon as it was added and no responses were being received from the remote devices. As it is the Operating System that decides what NIC to use (and not ipMonitor)…

The problem is likely occuring because ipMonitor is attempting to impersonate the account on the development domain, which is not possible because one cannot impersonate an account on a domain other than the one you are in. To work around this, open the Credential you are trying to use by going to "Configuration ->…

Hello seigniory, The fact that a second Device is getting created could occur if the first Device was Deleted from the Network Scan results. Having that said, make sure to not delete any items from the Network Scan results unless you wish to recreate all of your Devices. When a second Device is created, you can move its…

Hello stevenchow, In order to monitor a resource over WMI/RPC on a domain other than the one ipMonitor is on, you will need to use one of 2 solutions: A. Replicate a local account on the ipMonitor system and the remote system you are attempting to monitor. More on this is found here:…

As there is no command on the F5 to view all configurations and make a complete backup, one of our clients used and provided me the following workaround: "The cattools command is now: run cli script kiwibackup On the F5 there are two scripts-- one TMSH script to run two commands, the first is to save a single file…

Hello Prafulnama, There is currently no way to migrate some of the configurations from one ipMonitor installation to another. Having that said, I recommend simply migrating all of your configurations from one installation to another and then delete the undesired configurations from both installations. In order to…

Good day Aaron, It sounds like you are using the SNMP-QA Wizard and leaving the OID for sysUptime. Here's what I recommend, which will likely find everything you need. 1. Click "Monitors" 2. Click "Add Server". 3. Insert the IP address of the switch and the needed SNMP community name. 4. Click Next. This should find CPU…

Good day galejj, It is possible to configure Kiwi Syslog Server to write to a MS SQL Server database by using the Log to Database Action (more info at http://www.kiwisyslog.com/help/syslog/action_log_to_odbc_database.htm), however, it is not possible to configure the Kiwi Web Access component to use this database.

Hello Jpsolomon, This is possible as long as the web page uses one of the following authentication methods: * Basic * Challenge/Response * Digest In other words, the HTTP header in the response must include two things: * An 'HTTP status' header with a value of "401 - Unauthorized" * An 'WWW-Authenticate' header with the…

Click "Credentials List" 3. Click the Credential that represents the domain account you are trying to use and used within…

Grodech, My guess is that you have 2 Log to Kiwi Web Access Actions configured within your setup. Look through all of your Rules to make sure you don't have this Action configured twice.

Brian, As per our phone conversation via case 506408, you need to find out why the OID you are using no longer works against the upgraded BigIP system. We know it's not an SNMP communication problem because generic OIDs work fine. It is possible that the newer OS no longer supports that OID and/or the resource needs to be…

Hello tomking, At this time ipMonitor has the IBM OID for temperature built-in to the Temperature Monitor Scan. Having that said, you do not need any additional MIBs within your install. In fact, ipMonitor does not require any MIBs to monitor. It has a long list of OIDs built-in for processors, memory, drive-space,…

Hello Tech75, At this time there is no way to access any of ipMonitor's web pages anonymously. One way around that is to build your own ASPX to query ipMonitor's SOAP interface.
