This error usually indicates you need to run reports as administrator, or go back and reinstall reports (and the crystal reports runtime) as administrator. The installers by default try to run as admin, but may not have succeeded. The two bits you need to uninstall are reports and the "Crystal Reports Runtime". To…

If you're just upgrading, a one-time archive before you upgrade is fine. Space-wise, if you look at the "database" output in the diskusage that appears when you log in, it's literally going to make a copy of that data, so you will probably need close to 1:1 space. (And it'll take a while! Sometimes it's faster to make a…

Hi I used syslog and created a widget to show the erro disabled events for the NOC for the last hour. SELECT Hostname, SUBSTRING(Message, CHARINDEX('putting ', Message) + 7, len(Message)) AS Expr1, count(messagetype) as Count FROM Syslog WHERE DateTime >= dateadd(hour,-1,getdate())and DateTime <= getdate() and messagetype…

Got it. We'll take a look at this.

Greetings awickham10, Could you please send us your log files at support@confio.com for us to look them over? Also something quick to check. Did you turn on the flag DFT_MON_STMT? It must be set to ON for Ignite to fully monitor your DB2 instance. You can check this by running the command 'db2 get database manager…

I'm not a SQL expert but you could insert a case statement something like this which will insert a color code. I believe the .gif files are in c:\inetpub\solarwinds\netperfmon\images or c:\inetpub\solarwinds\orion\images folder. Not exactly sure which one is used for report generation. The 3 highlighted .gifs don't exist…

I have APM installed on my Orion server. What template or component should I use to monitor disk I/O on servers? I'm just looking for some basic I/O data to see how utilized the disks from a performance standpoint.

I would like to be able to do this too. Did you find a way?

On the graph you posted, there are two sets of data. It's showing Transmit and Received bits per second, so you get a 95th percentile for each. The violet lines are trend lines--again, one for xmit, one for received.

quote:Originally posted by tspence I am monitoring each member of the cluster. What I'm asking is: While monitoring the cluster if server 1 with drivr "Q" is bounced, will npm still see drive "Q" as being available because it failed over to server 4. I don't want an alert if drive "Q" is available in the cluster. Tim Sure…

What you're asking for is not possible in APM 1.0, but it will be in the next version. 

Yes it is a 2003 Microsoft cluster. So, using the virtual IP and the same community string as the rest of the servers. NPM will catch the fail over and not see it as a system failure? Tim

+1 here. Definitely would like to see day of the week type scheduling ability. Also have the ability to specify a discovery window, for example 6pm - 6am. If the discovery is not complete by 6am, it would stop and post the discovered results and status where the discovery stopped (last address). As it works today, when the…

Since there was no reply to our question we wrote perl script doing what we want. <-- snip --> use Net::SNMP; my $host = $ARGV[0]; my $ip = $ARGV[1]; my $ifnumber = "1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20.1.2.$ip"; my ($session, $error) = Net::SNMP->session( -hostname => $host, -version => 'snmpv2c', -community => 'public', -port => 161 ); my…

I am having a similar issue with advanced alerts. They sometimes only send the reset email, but do not send the alert email that triggered the reset in the firsat place. After detailed accounting and troubleshooting with the alerts, and sending all the info I could possible gather to support, the response was to use basic…

There are some known bugs around days of the week. These bugs are going to be fixed in 8.1, which is due fairly soon. Sorry to be vague, but we're not quite ready to set a date. Denny LeCompte Sr. Product Manager, Orion SolarWinds

Has anyone heard anything on the whole Sunday bug thing? There's no way I'm going to use this as my production alerting system until this is fixed.

 Not currently. It's on the roadmap.

I've captured your request in our system.

What is the OID in the template? Does it match the device? Have you opened it and just resaved it? I have had a poller not see a template that was clearly there and I simply resaved it with white space changes and it resolved my issue.

As a part of normalizing data, we do parse and translate events to a taxonomy format, which is passed through the system. (In parallel, if enabled, the original source data is also passed on for storage.) After it's parsed, this taxonomy format is the actual data passed through the LEM engine for monitoring, correlation,…

Bump...Ross, ever get this query working in Report Writer?

billh, If that solution doesn't solve your problem, please email Support. There may be something particular about your configuration or your installation that is causing your problem. Denny LeCompte Sr. Product Manager, Orion SolarWinds

Yes I have it setup as a Custom Node Poller alert and set to trigger when the status has changed. Looking at the CustomPollerStatus table in my Netperfmon database the status column for this custom node poller actually reflects the values of "active unit" and "standby unit". Given that I believe the alert will trigger as…

Well Byron, it doesn't appear you had much success in gaining any feedback. I hope my post will spark some discussion. I'm also curious to know what others have done to implement SQL redundancy between two data centers? We are about to implement FOE in our redundant data center and are seeking a solution for our SQL server…

Ok I think I got it working. What I did was setup the alert to send me an email when the status changes on the UnDP. Then for the reset I just set it to reset when the status is not empty (which is always true) and reset after 2 hours. This way the alert will always reset after 2 hours regardless, but we will still get…

The alert for config change is based off a syslog event or snmp trap, I believe. The Nexus OS is not the same as IOS on the more common cisco gear. They may not send that trap/event. I just have my daily backups compared by NCM and I get the delta between the last two backups in my daily email report.

Thanks for the response. That has given me a really good start on developing the display I was looking for. I am going to try and customize the look at little but it is doing what I wanted. Thanks

the link below is the best write up i have seen on here concerning the disk IO issues it is an extreme build i will give you that but it is also dead on for performance http://thwack.solarwinds.com/message/96290#96290
