Good suggestion. 

sorry about the double entry. One of these could be deleted. Thanks Walt

 In order to understand the problem, we will need you to run diagnostics and add it to your Support case. The Diagnostics Utility can be found in C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Orion\SolarwindsDiagnostics.exe [assuming a default install path].

Why are you using v7.1? That version is very old and no longer supported. We are currently shipping version 8.0. Denny LeCompte Sr. Product Manager, Orion SolarWinds

The VLAN information available in NCM isnt very useful.

Hello, I've written the query in SQL three different ways in MS TSQL, and ran it against the Solarwinds database, and the results are as expected. When I implement the code in the manage alerts section of the SW app, the code fails to validate when it is converted to SWQL. Below's code is does a self join which won't…

Yes...if you have the custom properties already created its a piece of cake. On your Orion server, start->solarwinds network performance monitor->advanced features->account limitation builder. In there, you can add new account limitations and tie them to a custom property. Once you have the limitations created here, you'll…

 Yep. That sounds cool, and we're hoping to make resources drag-and-droppable in a future release.

This is not a supported configuration. What's the problem you're trying to solve with a separate database?

I think this is a Serv-U bug. A potential workaround is, to add your server fqdn to the list of websites to be run in browser compatibility mode. A similar bug was resolved in 11.1.0.3 for FireFox browsers: "Corrected a download bug with Firefox 8.0; Firefox would present end-users with a random file name instead of the…

 The problem is probably with the use of "none". What are you trying to accomplish with that clause? If you want to alert for any server except Server 1 or Server 2, then change it to Trigger Alert when all of the following apply: node name is not equal to server1 node name is not equal to server2

Got it. I'll enter this as a bug.

Are these Advanced or Basic Alerts?

Check this link: http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/Orion/docs/WebConsoleReportingGuide.pdf it should help!

usually run into this when Network engineers are trying to force routing over certain links and they use bandwidth statements in the configs instead of just adding a cost multiplier to the route. I guess in some cases it might be faster but usually leads to more issues later when the network grows.

After upgrading NCM to the current version 8.0 it automatically installed "SolarWinds SCP Server" 1.3.0.30 (note: not SFTP server) and "SolarWinds TFTP Server" 11.0.4.0 The versioning seems to vary depending on the source.

I am confused why the version of the free SFTP download isn't synchronously maintained with the ETS. Can someone explain? https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/ets/content/release_notes/ETS_11-0-7_release_notes.htm Engineer's Toolset 11.0.7 Release Notes Updated December 4, 2018 These release notes…

It's on the roadmap, but it won't be in Orion 9. 

As an aside; here's the screenshot of the error:

We have requests for Snap Manager and Snap Drive, but not Snap Mirror - do you know where it logs? The other two log to the Windows Event Log.

 Orion can monitor AIX using SNMP agent. 

That's fantastic. I'm reading some readme's on the NET-SNMP right now. I think this will be perfect for what I am doing. I will do some playing around and post how things work out. Thanks a bunch for your help. Aaron

Consider it on the radar.

 Not sure why this is happening, but my first bit of advice is to upgrade to APM 2.0 SP2, if at all possible.

quote:I'm just curious how you can do this at all with NPM. Find the interface of choice, go to Interface Details, click the button on the right side for "Administratively Shutdown Interface". quote:You can always fire off NET-SNMP and do an SNMP-SET to bring interfaces up and/or down as an alert trigger. I had a very…

So, getting back into Solarwinds, I have found "Device Studio pollers". Is there any way to define interfaces and the statistics to monitor for each? This is basically what I am asking.

I hate Outlook. haha What about just using the Alert Actions to execute the script? I think that would work. The only thing is I don't know much about scripting. I dont suppose oyu have any good resources to read up on scripting for SNMP? Thanks again. Aaron

That can't be done. You have to re-write the alert in Advanced Alerts.

Good catch. Yes, you are correct. That installer will install APM, the additional poller, and the additional web server.

Try installing the Solarwinds agent on a server you want to connect to and then see if it appears in Solarwinds. If it doesn't appear try adding the node and select Agent.
