For getting data with the UnDP, the MIB doesn't actually have to be in the Orion MIB database. You only need to provide the OID in the proper field and Orion will be able to get the data.

I'd advise a to load it to 45/55 and then review. Check the Polls Per Second Monitoring tool: don't have these set too high. Slightly higher than recommended settings here is fine. Setting these settings too high will cause problems with polling. On the SQL side, have you seen the documentation on this. * Please also see…

Hmmmm.....happened to see another thread with a similar kind of issue (missing link to Manage Nodes) and one of the suggestions was to try creating a new account with the needed permissions. Did that, and now, upon logging in with the new account, I have the "Customize Views" link, which appears to get me to the right…

I havent seen this exact issue with system manager not displaying the nodes, but I have seen it where the nodes refuse to delete when doing it from the web interface. So far from the users I have here attempting it; it appears that it wont delete the nodes from the web interface if your using IE7. This does still work from…

Does your Orion server have a connection to the internet? If not, that is probably the source of your problem. The services need to contact thawte.com to verify the certificate that the services were signed with. If you can't access the internet from your Orion service, you can add thawte.com to your hosts file and…

Having .Net 1.1 and .Net 2.0 will not cause a problem. Does your Orion server have a connection to the internet? Do your other services start? --e.g., Syslog, Trap Do you see anything in the Application Event Log or the SolarWinds event log regarding the service crashing?

 Do you really want it based on map status? Or are you just asking for a container that can contain mulitple applications, with alerts, reports, etc. based on the status of that container.

OK, silly point regarding the custom view links, since it is preferable anyway to define the link with relative path (e.g. /Orion/SummaryView.aspx?viewid=XX) However, having a variable for the FQDN would still be useful, specially if server host other app you want to link to... So, any predefined variable, or way to create…

quote:Originally posted by hvits Just looked at the alerting engine and it is not running, nor will it start. Any ideas?? Thanks Do you have .Net Framework 2.0 installed? That version of the framework is required for the service to run, and a number of users have had problems because they still have version 1.1. Denny…

Mav, from reading thwack it appears that quite a few users have the infoblox dhcp solution and would like to pull the information into ipam; myself being one of them. Would it be prudent to inquire about the possibility of adding support for additional DHCP engines (infoblox, dhcpd) to the list of supported dhcp daemons in…

Can you open a Support ticket so we can try to replicate and fix?

You're correct. We made a mistake in the web page saying 2000 was out of the box. Sorry about that. We'll get the page updated.

Hi Chris, This stuff about about grouping items togther sounds interesting. Will it work similarly to the application designer in SCOM 2007? We use the network atlas to a limited extent to visually represent a multiple-server service but it proves to be a massive job to create the maps and keep them up to date. Will there…

Hi Dustin, It is great to hear that you are back. Kathy

We thought about this and could not come up with a very good way to search for "every day between 18:00 and 06:00" without having to do the search every day. There are some ways in the future we can do this, but no good way right now. Unfortunately, we know we don't support Chinese (and a bunch of non-English language)…

Hmm...never noticed it either. No CPU/memory collected on ours too. Thanks for pointing it out Chris. We should open a ticket.

here is the script: Dim objNamedArgs Set objNamedArgs = WScript.Arguments.Named If objNamedArgs.Exists(""wbohpexchmb01"") Then Else WScript.Echo ("Message: Please set correct argument into counter's argument box: Name of target server in double quotes according to the output of command: Get-ExchangeServer. Example:…

The highlighted alert is providing you information about queued data on disk. The queued data is only 2.1M in size and it was unable to determine how many events were contained in it. If there were actual disk problems, you would see them as "InternalWarning" alerts. They are generated when the disk space gets below a…

I'm not sure why you are seeing this. You might want to open a Support ticket.

This can be done today using custom properties. A custom property is essentially a tag since each device can have any number of properties.

 Brocade keeps lots of its data in MIB tables, which Orion 8.5.1 doesn't support. Orion 9 will support tables, however, so Brocade support should get a lot better in a few months with 9.0 ships.

Hi Guys, thank you for the help on this one. The reason this is happening is due to Time Zone. The server time is set to GMT. My local time is based on UTC+4. Any changes I made will reflect after 4 hours. I even tried unmanaging node locally based on the GMT time zone and changes reflected right away. This solved this…

Running the following database query seems to output a valid list of active ports with mismatches. select * from Interfaces WHERE (InterfaceSpeed <> InBandwidth) AND (InterfaceSpeed <> OutBandwidth) AND (InterfaceSpeed > 0) AND (Status = 1) Not sure of the impacts of making a change directly to the database or if there are…

Me being the ex-netapp employee I will try to explain this a little bit for you: So you are right in the datastore latency needing to be below 20 ms. There are different latency situations however. You have latency from your Storage Controller/Datastore to VMware if you are using NFS (Like us) then that is one piece. Once…

mine is doing the exact same thing. just started.....

Are you using in NPM 9.0? If so, you can create custom properties to group your nodes. You can use these custom properties to group node in web node management. You can then select all of the nodes with that custom property and make a change such as polling frequency to all of them at once. Isn't that pretty much what…

There wasn't really a good way to answer this without taking notes on all of them, so here's some (relatively) quick thinking... let me know if you want to drill into any of these or need more specifics somewhere. * Authentication and Authorization Reports* All login failures and successes by user, system, business unit*…

Euphorik, Can you give us a little more detail on your goal? You want Orion to receive the trap and create an Advanced Alert? Why create an Advanced Alert instead of triggering something from the Trap Alert engine? I'm not saying you shouldn't, but it would be easier to comment if we all had some insight into the problem.…
