It appears that since I have changed this all of my poll times on APM's are in the past. I ran a repair on SAM 5.0 and modified the dll.config file again. This APM in particular is set to poll every 120 seconds. As you can see the initial poll was good but after that it appears to stop or at least appear that way. Any…

+1 to reusing the IPs as an easy option. If you backup and restore all of the configuration to the new appliance, it will have a record of all of the agents and be able to "take over" seamlessly. If they are connected by hostname, you could just update the DNS entry and everything will work. There is a command on the…

Thanks a tonne I have to say that, I and my firm are entirely new to outsourced managed services such as this, so this wasn't even something I considered as a potential problem but after reading this post I'm really appreciative that you have created such a simple work around to something which they should consider adding…

Aaron, for some reason, this mission got stuck, even if you did the necessary steps. So I went ahead and awarded you both the badge and the points.

toc-awebb‌, I will have a look at this.

This template work for me. I made it based on alteon with some modifications.

 If you allow SNMP through the firewall, you'll need to open 161, but if you move polling engines to the other side of the firewall, you'll need to open the SQL port (1433, usually), and you'll also need to open up 17777, which is a port we need starting in Orion 9.0--although the latter is only necessary is you want to be…

Donald, Every single post is read by someone here at SolarWinds. Many posts are read by quite a few people. We email thwack links to each other all day. I say or hear the word "thwack" hundreds of times a day, as do probably most of the employees. So this community is very much on our minds. We pay attention. Still, we…

OK,m now the additional webserver download is corrupt and it seems to contain an RC3 release too OrionAPM-v4-Web-RC3.zip do i have to cancel this upgrade even though i have planned it with tons of customers etc?

i installed the trial version, but the Switch Port Mapper is not there. Any advice? Eric J Carpenter

I think the real question is why you should buy APM instead of MOM. Some of the advantages of APM are: * No agents required on the monitored boxes * Integrates with Orion NPM and the other modules * More linux/unix friendly * Much easier to install, deploy, maintain, and use

Hotfixes are listed in the install log. You can also look in the registry under hklm>software>solarwinds>NetFlowTrafficAnalyzer>HotfixVersion. We are working on a way to make it easier to tell. 

I wanted to pop in on this thread and let you know that LEM 5.7 RC3 (just released yesterday) has a focused effort to eliminate these "endless reports" issues (with side effects of improving performance in related scenarios where they might not be technically endless but might as well be). If any of you are able to upgrade…

The two issues (slow vs. endless) may be related or the same root problem. We issued a hotfix last week that you might want to try that changes the available resources to run reports. Some customers have reported this helps/resolves their issues with long/indefinite/failing reports, especially with more data or longer…

Hi Could be a timing issue as I have noticed that Nexus do take longer to login than an IOS device. I am running version 5.0(3)N1(1b) with no issues what template do you use and what are your timeout settigs for SSH/telnet and the prompt timeout have you tried adjusting these Kind Regards James

Do share with us more insights.

The File Size monitor should be able to monitor a file on a Linux share as long as SAMBA is setup on the Linux box so that the Linux box can be browsed using a UNC path.

Advanced alerts are not case sensitive.

I need to do this too.... i need to downgrade an SLX to an SL2000... i am going to do this in VMware so i can take a snapshot before i do it in case i balls up, but i think it should be as simple as installing the Sl2000 binary of the same version over the top of the SLX whcih should just work.... Solarwinds seem reluctant…

Orion does indeed support RMON 1 and RMON II if you wish to configure a UNDP (universal device poller) for that MIB. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMON If you want to use one of the many SNMP MIBS. So it's not really a function of ORION but more of the interest in focusing on a particular MIB. At this point the use of RMON…

 That should have been fixed in SP3. Are your service packs up to date?

 We've improved this issue in Orion 8.5, which is due in a few weeks.

Cisco had an option like ip flow-capture mac-addresses to export ( Enables the software to capture the values of the source and destination MAC addresses from the traffic in a flow). Will this export the MACinfo to Orion NTA? 

I have been getting the exact same error for about two weeks. It started about the time I made our domain administer password change and thought somehow it was related; however, I'm not so sure about that now. I hope someone has some ideas.

I would like to see this as a feature as well. Please include in the next update.

Ours went fine, no issues. Just be aware that if at the end of the upgrade you receive a warning that the install failed due to failure of services to stop, just click on "Fiinsh". Seems to happen on the SP installs - some people say if you stop the serivces manually first that error doesn't occur, but I've had it occur…

Do you want the Trap to create an Advanced Alert?

Just to up front: It's too late for NPM 10. We'll consider it for a future version, but NPM 10 is almost completely baked. Too late for new features.

I don't know of any way to do exactly what you're trying to do. Maybe someone else in the community has an idea...

Why not use YYYY-MM-DD to avoid all confusion? tDiff = DateDiff("n", CDate(Year(Yesterday) & "-" & Month(Yesterday) & "-01"), CDate(Year(Yesterday) & "-" & Month(Yesterday)+1 & "-01")) Works out as 44640 for this month when I run it. Edit: On a side note, wouldn't you run into issues when Month = 12? It'd try and convert…
