Question: what OS are you running your RDP session from? I'm guessing Vista because I had the same problem the first time I ran RDP after a new Vista install. This article saved my bacon. Basically, Vista RDP uses a new feature called "auto-tuning for the TCP/IP receive window", and it is BROKEN!!! As soon as I disabled…

 No, but we're hoping to get this funcitonality into the next release after 9.0.

p. 113 of the NCM 7.5.1 Admin Guide states: "When you enable the change approval system, SolarWinds NCM prevents the system from executing device uploads until an NCM administrator has approved the scheduled job." I see that when NCM's approval system is enabled, an email is sent to a configurable list of users to notify…

You can create a new view that doesn't include any Thwack resource. You can associate the Thwack-less views with certain accounts. More details in the Admin Guide.

In CheckPoint's management center, you can set certain ACLs to the 'log' target. I think out of the box some level of info is logged, then you can specify each ACL to log if you want that in addition. I'm not 100% confident how - in other devices denied traffic is logged by default, but I can't remember if that's the case…

GREAT IDEA!!!! I will second this.

You download it from your customer portal. What else were you told?

I just replaced a router that was already in Cirrus, and it did eventually rediscover it as a different Router model than was previously in place. I haven't figured out the discovery timing yet, or if it can be triggered manually, but it will eventually happen. I've been playing with "snmp-server location" settings as a…

Turned out to be a permissions issue in the temp folder under where I needed to give "network service" full access. Somewhere in the upgrade process this was an error that was unreported.

Ok , I think this is actually related to how NPM is connected to the database. That might be where this problem is.

The DetectionTime value is taken from the log, and effectively a timestamp with timezone is assigned to stamp an absolute time at the time the log is read (say, at the agent, syslog server, or if you're forwarding syslog all the way to the LEM appliance, to the LEM appliance). Generally, though, we don't take the timestamp…

The last place I've seen this log file was on the desktop, and it was an XML file, but it seems to be pretty unreliable when you see this error. Also in my experience, the issue is minor, and it's actually successfully installed (does everything seem okay with the agent you installed?). Remote installer: you run this from…

Use WMI and not SNMP. You will then see the mount points.

There is a SolarWinds Certified Professionals Group on Linkedin which sometimes contains job postings from our partners and various recruiters. It was opened up to anyone a few years back, although not highly publicized. Anyone can become a member, simply by requesting. Skeeter

How are you monitoring the queued messages?

I'm open to correction but don't believe this is possible in SEUM (at least not yet).

I have a similar scenario where we use Cisco 2621 Gateways to receive/send H.323 voip calls from the service provider to our customer's office. So far we haven't found a way to monitor the call volume thru snmp v1/v2 with Orion. Any ideas? Also, any idea when Orion will support SNMPv3 ? Thank you. Best regards, Amram Peña,…

Ok, I found another vbs script which logs into the site. Now is there a way using APM you can measure how long it takes to login? For instance how long it taked from the time you hit submit until the time the actual web page comes up? Is this too much for the APM? I know, trying to squeeze as much as I can from the…

This can be done via a script in APM 2.0. In 2.5, it will be a full-fledged component monitor.

Because of the feedback (almost all negative) VMware has upped the memory restrictions to the following Standard: 32GB vRAM allocated on the host, and 8 way vCPU/VM Enterprise: 64GB vRAM allocated on the host, and 8 way vCPU/VM Enterprise Plus: 96GB vRAM allocated on the host, and 32 way vCPU/VM Thanks, John

 Flattery, huh. So explain how you would use it. Do you use an RSS reader? How would this fit into your life?

Geoo, In Report Writer select report, click on Field Formatting tab, then click on the "False" custom property and change the Column Header to the text you want it to be. Hope this helps.

 This is not possible in 8.5, but it's something we plan to add.

I am seeing this more now on the newer Modular IOS from CISCO also. As others said it seemed to be just W2K server initially but now i see it on 6500 series and 3700 series switches.

any answer to this yet? i assume it is a a SQL code to remove all the energywise entries from the pollers table... the same has to be done to disable topology in 10.2

Not yet, but that is on the roadmap.

You'll have to get very intimate with your database, particularly your Events table, but you should be able to tie in events against Nodes. As an example - if a box reboots more than once a week (untested, but the DB query works..) Type of Property to Monitor: Custom SQL Alert Set up your Trigger Query: Node WHERE…

I would imagine the MAC address search function would do... but not sure if wildcards or incomplete MAC ID lookups are valid in UDT. Not only that, but the list for D-Link was a crazy amount of starting bits, whereas linksys only had a few.... YMMV, but it's a thought.

In fact if what you want is "when an agent goes offline during my Custom Business Hours group notify me", it's even simpler - you just need InternalAgentOffline.DetectionTime = Custom Business Hours By defining a left hand side, it basically implies the "EXISTS" part for you. The rule @groovs posted will look for an agent…
