Hi Sotherls, I've just been through this whole horrible experience with PSExec within a batch file. I got it working after a bit of time, here's what I did... the batch file is to remotely using psexec start the "Telnet" service and contains this... "E:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Orion\Scripts\psexec.exe" \\dcrntsp032 net…

Very curious about this also.

We are running 9.5.1 on a seperate SQL 2005 64bit Enterprise SP3 server. Worked on SP2 as well. No problems.

I am also looking into the possibility of sending SNMP traps to SolarWinds to complete the acknowledgement. I was poking around in Trap Viewer, and it appeared that there were two methods to accomplish this: * Using a regex to match the contents of the trap details * Matching the SNMP trap against a series of OIDs that…

Is there a way to get the Notes field to display in the web console under Home > Alerts?

Thanks I suspect I will need to take a look at additonal pollers....

Okay derhally, I was able to get the script working using the xml portion of your solution. This led me to the following code: param($swisTarget,$alertKey,$nodeAlias,$alertGroup)if (!(Get-PSSnapin -Name "SwisSnapin" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){ Add-PSSnapin SwisSnapin -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue}$username =…

Okay, I was able to get the "Invoke-SwisVerb : Verb Orion.AlertStatus.Acknowledge cannot unpackage parameter 0" error to go away by modifying the array to be: $res = Invoke-SwisVerb $swis "Orion.AlertStatus" "Acknowledge" @(,$alertKey,$nodeAlias,$alertGroup) I'm not sure why that got rid of the error, but I saw it done in…

Tested RC 12.1. Very good Performance and Response while remote. Some disturbing Things are still here. Display refresh rate (how I understand it) is slow. Sometimes I can paint on screen Sometimes the remote session is like hanging. No Chance to interact with remote Computer. Need to disconnect and reconnect again.

I tried to install the RC 12.1 but during install I Need to enter a valid License, which I don't have. Eval is exipred due to earlier Tests with beta. How do I reset the eval lic?

It's a bit of a hack, but it's possible: Edit the file “C:\Inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\js\NetObjectTips.js” and remove the following lines: $("a[tooltip!='processed'][href*='NetObject=']").livequery(function() { this.tooltip = 'processed'; $.swtooltip(this); });

Network_Guru, You said that tracking logins to a server was a requirement on your group. Who generated the requrirement? Security team? Regulatory compliance/auditors? Understanding that can help us to figure how widely such a feature would apply. Thanks, Denny Denny LeCompte Sr. Product Manager, Orion SolarWinds

Ok, well, sorry folks. Turns out I was forbidden. SOMEONE forgot to give me appropriate permissions on the box on which Orion is hosted.

Well, apparently I was behind a firewall. Unfortunately, I'm now behind it and still getting the dang 403. EDIT 1: Just found out the 17778 port has been opened, so the above firewall issue.. shouldn't be [an issue].

anyone???

 You will need to manually move your nodes to the new poller, which is how Orion sees it. Once you've done that, you can delete the old poller from the Engines table in the DB.

Yes, if they're orphaned, the best wya is to clearn via the database.

I'd like to have the facility to add a "reason for..." note to an event/alert. E.g. when I receive a "NODE rebooted at 16/08/2011 03:22" alert, I'd like to go in and have somewhere to put "Fred pulled the power cord" so that I can generate a report each month showing all the reasons for that months reboots. I don't think…

Is there a way to have Orion pull and graph data from a CSV file? No. Orion doesn't include a general-purpose graphing tool.

look in the properties of the SNMP service.

Orion doesn't know what to do with those files because you do not need to compile the MIB files for Orion to use the Custom MIB poller. All you need is the OID. Enter the OID, and Orion will poll it. For ESX and some other devices, you may have issues because the current poller doesn't support MIB Tables. The new poller to…

You can use View Limitations to create a view that has only the devices you want. 

Hi Steven, its difficult to provide a complete list of path configurations, because they can be on any windows drive essentially. I want to monitor a few log directory sizes, as if they bloat it often indicates a problem. These directories can be on whatever drive a customer chooses, so its difficult to provide anything…

Hi Steven, This sounds like an ideal solution; I'm completely new to SolarWinds and Powershell, any advice/help you can offer would be very much appreciated, thanks!

The component monitors for HTTP, HTTPS, ports, and DNS user experience do not care whether the target is Linux or Windows. What do you mean by "services"? Do you mean processes? If so, the SNMP process monitor will work just fine on Linux. Use the AppBuilder to browse to the target Linux box, and you can browse a list of…

Hi and welcome! 1) Open SWNetPerfMon.DB (default location is C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Orion\) with a text editor, this file will tell you the name of the SQL server you are connected to and the read/write credentials. 2) Config Wizard can build a new database: Start> Programs > Solarwinds Orion > Configuration Wizard…

Hi mstyler​, A good place to start would be the Library & Support space where you can find documentation and training material for all Solarwinds products. Have a look as well at the Video section of thwack. Just filter by the Product Category to narrow down the topic your interested in. Let me know if you have any…

We use RDL and generate reports via direct queries. I have found this to be the best way to have a single step process that generates consistent reports.

Byrona, UnDP pollers should continue working if you move nodes over with the load balancing tool. Instead of the querying happening from your "main" poller, it will happen from the additional poller. It may take a few minutes for the UnDP's to "move", but they will pick up the change and handle it correctly.
