Thanks for your help Don! Hmm...I see it does get a little complicated. Will the ability to copy alerts and alert actions be simplified in the new 8.0 alert engine?

A list of active processes and their stats are listed in the Host Resources MIB.

Don, In regards to Alerts, can Database Manager be used to duplicate alerts from one engine to another engine? We originally had one engine and then added another. For some reason the default alerts were not installed for the new engine so to sync the new engine, we had to duplicate each default and custom alert one at a…

Through the process of using -Verbose outputs on the failing commands i was able to make this work by using another solarwinds variable my modified code line that works is: $connection = Connect-NaController $filername -credential ${Credential}

I've kinda managed to solve the issue by chance. A few days ago, I changed the rules that detects bandwidth utilizations to check at a frequency of 1 hour rather than the default 1 minute and IE has not crashed since. I do not understand why this is the case though but it is a good improvisation for the time being.

OK, did it, finally found a post that gave the intruction. after perfmring an uninstall of Netflow module, and running the config wizard... 1. delete netflow from inetpub/orion 2. delete netflow from website in IIS 3. Delete the netflow service using "sc" 4. delete every table prefixed wit NetFlow in the database cheers dan

I found a "volume status description" field for volumes. I'm testing it to see if volumes with stale data show up a status other than "up" . The other status's are down, unreachable, and unknown.

Hi Matt, I have just done this for some Sharp multifunction printers we've got. I found that the Sharp MIB for my devices stores the labels in a separate OID. All I did then was to make a UDP for the values as you have already done, make a second UDP for the OID where the field names are stored and put a "Tabular UDP" on…

We haven't implemented that feature yet.

use the dynamic query but just break it out a bit more 10.16.0.0/16 10.16.1.0/16 10.16.2.0/16 10.16.3.0/16 should still be able to get all these in a single dynamic query its not as classy as using a supernet but it gets you there

 When keeping historical data, we add the row to the CustomPollerStatistics_Detail table and update the CustomPollerStatus. It's two operations. If you want the values to be rolled up in hourly/daily, then you need to update the CustomPollerStatistics_detail table.

 Bericks999, If you paste that OID, you don't need to touch the settings under "Show Advanced Options". If it's in our MIB database and the name and description auto-populate, my advice is to not even look at that option. That's why we hid it by default. You really only need that when you have an OID that's not in our…

The best way to do this is to use the Host Seed File. www.solarwinds.com/.../wwhelp.htm

I'm in the same boat. I am tasked with getting all Juniper J6350 hardware, cards, flash,etc, but I can't find any support on it within the out of the box content. Does anyone have any luck with reports and the Juniper series routers? I searched in content exchange and came up empty. Subscribed!

Miron, In v2.5, which ships soon, we are introducing the concept of "tags" for templates. Tags are just simple text labels that can be associated with one or more templates. The new UI will allow you to organize by tags. If you'd like to see it, please sign up for the Beta .

This is something we may consider for the future, but it's not possible now.

Disable multicast polling and the MSMQ problem should go away. You may also have to clean out (orphaned .mq files) the MSMQ (C:\Windows\system32\msmq\storage). Multicast is not ready for prime time!!! A buddy-drop is being developed for us for 10.6.1 to try. Supposedly, it is fixed in 10.7 but that's to be seen.

Not until we get closer. The two main features that are coming are a new and greatly improved tool for monitoring custom MIBs (includes tables, calculated values) and web-based node management.

Have dealt with this using native HPUX snmp client and custom pollers.

As a workaround, you might try building a filter, which is real-time, since I've seen a couple of threads now that don't quite match what you'd expect with nDepth. I'm going to try a couple of things and report back... I'm with you that this seems fishy.

Hi The archive is for you to store offline if you wanted. I use it for many things, like searching all configs for a certain field or many fields using PERL CGI. Also you may want to store more than 10 copies offline as the last place I worked at wanted over a years worth of config archives. James

Could you explain the problem you're trying to solve? The more we understand about your problem and the full usage scenario, the easier it is to prioritize the request.

You can manually do this already. From the menu select Configs, Purge Old Configs, then select 'Select Purge Method' tab from the window. From there you can either purge all configs downloaded before a certain date, or purge all except the last X number.

I'm using SNMPv3 on 8610s and 4500 series and monitoring successfully with NPM 10.3. Maybe I could help? Are you still having problems? I got a 5500 laying around that I could attempt to get working and write down everything I do.

 I've captured the feature request, so there's no need to move it.

What version flow records are you exporting from your devices? As far as I know NTA only supports version 5 records. Thanks, Olan

Thanks everyone for the very detailed and helpful answers. I think I have a handle on it now. -Rob-

There isn't any sort of intentional limitation based on the subnet. A few things: * Try a DNS/hosts entry forward-reverse for the LEM appliance's IP address and use it (default hostname is swi-lem) * Does it work with the Desktop Console (i.e. only affects the web console)? (Available from SolarWinds Knowledge Base ::…

I found the answer to my question. I used Report Writer on our Solarwinds Server, and used the build in report "Average and Peak Traffic Rates", and tweeked it for the server interface that I want. My problem now is that when I preview the report in report writer, it looks fine. I made a report for Daily Avg and peak…

Yes. My company uses this functionality to monitor Internet latency and for connectivity for devices behind firewalls that block SNMP.
