We allow for alerts on absolute values. Alerting on a % change is a feature request. We'll consider that one.

It's in mine too. I seem to recall I read somewhere in another post that 12.0 was re-branded as 11.5. I'm interested in the notes as well.

This should only occur if the IP address/hostname of the log data is different than the IP address/hostname of the agent. There's no way to turn it off since it's by design - some people have collectors, and we need to be sure that all of the original nodes are accounted for in the licensing count. Assuming you're not…

We generally do this by adding a Custom Node/Interface/Volume Property. The alert trigger can then check if this property is empty (default, alerting), or negate the test if the property is filled in (which is useful as you can put in why the device is in maintenance). Downside is you have to edit all your alerts (not too…

I wouldn't rule it out, but I can tell you that HPUX is not the same category as VMware's ESX. The former has some presence among our customers, but ESX is nealy ubiquitous. Regardless, the request is noted.

 APM has two types of monitors: Component Monitor - this is a single monitor that collects data from a single component (e.g., a process, a port, a permon counter) Application Monitor - this is a collection of component monitors that are treated as a monitoring group that has a group status. An Application Monitors is…

Commonly what we see is it's actually the path that's not helping, not necessarily the conditions. Check the mask on the other side of the config and whether it's being applied recursively. To me, your checkboxes do look correct.

There's a LEM Deployment Guide up on the docs site (direct link) that might provide some insight - you might have to estimate # of events that's in that 4GB to get some idea of how it translates to requirements. If we do some quick math of say 2kB per message, 4GB is about 24 events/sec which should fit in our default…

Guessing... 5.6 or newer? Searches more than a couple of days old? What happens with the newer database is that if the data is older than a certain timeframe (date/size), it's not in our "hot" storage, which is unpacked and ready for searching. When we have to go back to "warm" (somewhat compressed) or even "cold" (further…

I seriously doubt there will be another APM service pack before the next release. We're in Beta for APM 2.5. You should sign up for the Beta. 

Sounds like you've got the trigger set to wait 30 minutes but no delay on the reset action. The timing is independent.

Hey everyone, we're baaaaack! We've been updating the demo to our latest LEM release and adding a little login splash screen for the demo viewer's viewing pleasure. It would be awesome if any of you that have a moment could hit up http://lem.demo.solarwinds.com again and confirm that things are working okay. I don't expect…

Good news everyone! We re-introduced the load balancing functionality since we worked everything else out and it's looking good. Let me know if anyone has any issues accessing the demo (as always at http://lem.demo.solarwinds.com) Thanks so much for all of your help!

Hooray!

This message means the NTA service is not running. Try restarting the service. If that doesn't work, you should probably run a repair and re-run configuration wziard on NetFlow.

Any time an active response is initiated, events will be generated and stored on the appliance. If you search for InternalCommands alerts in nDepth (or with a filter) or use the "SolarWinds Actions Report" you should be able to find anything an active response connector has done.

Took us a little longer than we'd have hoped to test a few things related to NAT, but we think we've got it. Now we're interested in seeing what issues linger. I suspect that anyone who never sees it change from "demouser" to "guestXX" will still have issues, but anyone who saw it switch to "guestXX" but never log in…

Rob, I don't think coming to a commercial vendor's forum and asking for advice on an open source tool is the best idea, but I'll chime in. I use both Solarwinds and another paid (but built on open source) tool. With SolarWinds suite of products, you are gaining an easier to manage toolset that has more out of the box than…

The plot thickens... I think we're dealing with some NAT communication issues at this point, which is why none of you are able to get it to work and Dex and I are going nuts. I'm curious as to whether the AIR console will work, if any of you have that installed, give it a spin with that test user, otherwise I'll try it…

Either Randy or Matt, can you try hitting "Cancel" as soon as you get to the login and then specifying: Username: testuser Password: Testing12 and tell me if it logs in with that user?

Definitely still not working for me. I tried a few weeks ago and the login just hung. The same thing is occurring today.

The easiest answer is that some events are logged by name while others are logged by IP, but let me back up and explain The "IP Address" field is effectively a shorthand field that is the same as saying "DetectionIP OR InsertionIP OR SourceMachine OR DestinationMachine OR... " for all fields where LEM knows IP…

Yes, there seems to be a bug around sorting by custom properties. I understand that you don't want to post screenshots. If you want to send us the details of the bug with screenshots, please open a Support ticket. It would help us diagnose the issue.

Hey guys, We've eliminated a few things from the equation - any differences?

We're eliminating possibilities one at a time. If anyone has a chance, I'd appreciate a re-check (let me know browser and the [a:X] as well). Anecdotally this round has worked for me everywhere but Safari across multiple systems that used to fail, so I'm hoping we have better success with you all. Thanks so much.

Thanks again, everyone. Back to the drawing board! I'll let you all know if anything changes. If anyone manages to get through, feel free to let us know (right now I am feeling like that episode of Futurama where Leela tries to be a blernsball pitcher, and we're Leela).

Yes, this device is something we intend to add in a future version.

Everyone, Thanks so much for hitting the LEM demo. We've made some changes to the login process, it'd be awesome if you could try again and let us know the results. (If you report back, especially with issues, it's also helpful to know the browser and the code at the top right, e.g. [a:b]). Thanks again!!

(Assuming Windows) The trick is to figure out how presence of a bluetooth device would log... if you don't have built-in bluetooth you could potentially detect the addition of a USB bluetooth dongle via USB-Defender, and alert/detach it. Or, if you've got bluetooth hardware installed but disabled disabled maybe you could…

How do you increase the timeout. I am having the same problem. All the time.
