We have 9.5.1 and I had a console outage after the following patches were installed: KB979482 KB978695 KB980195 KB975562 Win 2003 32 bit I removed the patches and everything was working again. Maybe it was a fluke but it is interesting that there is now more than one server having issues post updates.

Hi, Here is what i have: It basically display the node, when it was down, and how many hours it is down based on the current system time. It checks for node status, so if a node is up, it will disappear from the list. Here is my code: Please take note that i have some custom properties i have created (City,…

What are you seeing? Does the rule not catch this trap at all? Or does it catch too many other traps? Can you provide more context ?

Small Update: Regarding the Message field; I found this Thwack link: that demonstrates that the 'Message' field is only populated with alert messages when the component is down. It's an unfortunate label name. Developer Request: Please change the 'Message' field in the Component Details resource to something more…

Here's a KB article that we have about how to make Orion defrag for you as part of DB maintenance, as well as links to Microsoft sites to provide additional information: http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/3202/Critical+index+fragmentation+detected+during+database+maintenance

this needs to be fixed in SQL. run maintenance on the database set up a job to run the database maintenace at least once a week when it does the maintenance it will re-index and de-frag your tables. should be doing this before each backup of the database anyway.

Is there an update to this? Has anyone else seen this issue? We upgraded our Solarwinds server, and now all our python scripts are busted. We are receiving the same error: requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: ('Connection aborted.', error(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host'))

I just started getting this message too. (I am running 8.5.1 SP2) I'll try the suggestions that support sugested

Anyone?

The reboot works only on failed monitors. You would need to change the logic of your filewatch to be successfull (green) if a specific content is not machted. However i havent seen a way to negate a regex in ipmonitor yet (normaly you would lead it with an exclamation mark !). Even the regexwizard does not have a "not"…

Hey Denis, The tools for ESXi messages/vmkernel that are natively built in to LEM are built for receiving the data from syslog to LEM directly, since you can't install an agent on ESXi as you found. I'd recommend sending the ESXi data via syslog to LEM and see if you can get that working first. The right tools to configure…

We are working on a big update of Map Maker that will allow you to install it separately.

Top graph is the old chart style bottom is the new style. When you customize a page and click the plus to add a resource to the column, you'll see a Netflow Top Resources (Classic Chart Style) heading. Those are the top chart in your post. Yes you can do what you want for each interface. I do stuff like that all the time.…

You're looking at the status of the poller. You want to add a resource to the Node Details page that shows the UnDP you've created. Use the "Tabular Universal Device Poller" instead.

I would recommend opening a Support ticket for this issue.

Do you see HostIncident events if you search for those specifically in nDepth? Or in an Incidents (or maybe Security Events) filter? If you have a place where you see the rule firing in your console, you can click on the event and go to Explore > Event to open up the Event Explorer. The explorer will show you what events…

Got this resolved.. searched the registry for the old database name and found it under the section for NCM. Replaced it with the new database name, reran the Configuration Wizard and all is good.

So, again, can someone explain to me what functions and operators are available from within APM I think you mean NPM, not APM, but I'm not sure. I'm making this assumption because the Universal Device Poller is part of NPM. Is it a requirement to use the Universal Device Pooper to accomplish this? I think by "this" you…

It's also worth noting that we don't even pass mice/keyboards on to USB-Defender, only mass storage devices, network devices, and phones. You likely won't even see events when these devices are plugged in, unless you're using the "Extended" USB-Defender connector, in which case you should be careful. USB Defender local…

We use a report which rolls up the outage time monthly. It looks like this:

FYI, this is an APM question in the NPM forum. I'm happy to answer, but you'll get quicker answers in the right forum. This isn't possible in APM today, but it's something we plan to add.

Use Orion Report Writer and then use the filter tab (filter on the Region, its located under Custom Property). Save a copy of the report and it will be available in the Web Console. You can then use Report Scheduler to email the reports!

As per this thread: www4.solarwinds.net/.../topic.asp Reinstalling Orion over itself appears to work. I am having the exact same problem after installing Eng. Edition v8 on top of Orion NPM, on Win 2k3 server, but I'm hesitant to do a full reinstall of NPM if I don't have to.

You can alert on Traps Start > Program Files > Solarwinds > Orion > Syslog and SNMP Traps > Traps Viewer From this tool, go to File > Settings > Alert/Filter Rules Tab > Add Rule On the Alert Action tab, click Add Action, scroll down, and there is an option to email.

Even performing a 'show run' within Cirrus exudes the same behavior - stops at the banner.

I got an answer - it is because of leveling with the techs. WHD is designed to use the escalation feature not as a "this ticket needs to get taken care of right away" but "level 1 techs cant fix this so we need to escalate it to a level 2 tech". This would then pull the ticket from the level one techs group and now they…

i have the same problem. I escalate number of errors issues to the provider and most of them will not even look at the errors until they reach a specific percentage of bandwidth. Orion does not seem to be able to do this. the technology required seems simple so i am not sure why, but then i might be mis-understanding how…

Thank you so much it's been resolved

Hi, I had the same problem and it was caused by a network link that was missing it's interface. As soon as I associated the link to the corresponding interface the map came back to green. Hope this helps GR
