Thanks Midnight - that makes a lot of sense

Yeah, thats YAML. We have the suppressFrom and suppressUntil in our first version of the code, till we realize that the mute isn't working. So we removed it to mute the node without an endtime. Looking into the audit events didn't show any errors. Code looked like: # Muten des Nodes in SolarWinds, falls NodeID vorhanden -…

Dind't see anything in the audit logs. No other user changed anything on the node...

So i do some more researching/testing and found out some more interest things. To avoid an user-related problem i used my admin account for this. The mute worked correctly, but i was not able to unmute the node over the webinterface. Only by running our automation to unmute the node. Also the changes with the timezone…

...seems to be working now!

In the audit-events i can't see another user/my script to schedule a new mute. There is also no unmute message visible. I reviewed my code and changed some points within the time zone. Follwing thins i have change:1. Versionstart_time: "{{ ansible_date_time.date }}T{{ ansible_date_time.time }}{{ ansible_date_time.tz_offset…

I do remember seeing something like this once before. I think it was a database issue that needed SW support to resolve.

Never seen this one before sounds like a bug, have you raised it with support?

It wouldn't hurt to mention these on the page and to list them as (in testing). At least then we know they are thinking about it.

Thanks Kevin that explains it. I am always stuck in legacy mode.

Also I can't see SRM or WPM on the demo site. Is this correct? I was trying to give a WPM demo this morning and I noticed it was gone.

Looking at the requirements page.... https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-orion-requirements-sw1916.htm#Cloud In these requirements it only mentions the 50 user limit and the 12000 element limit for "on premises" installs. So there could be quite a saving there if you can afford…

Hi Milty, You need to add the gateway, router, to the network analyzer. Have you configured this before? You will need to configure netflow so you can see what is utilising all the bandwidth. Adam

Agent port requirements here : https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-agent-requirements-sw476.htm Agents make security teams minds at rest (as long as the agent works well), as they use fewer ports. Most of my environments i've worked in have a mix of polling methods due to teams…

There are a lot of user created content on the content exchange that may be able to assist you. I realise this exact dashboard isn't on the content exchange. Maybe @"the_ben_keen" could make this available? thwack.solarwinds.com/.../modern-dashboards

Do you have other devices connected via NCM? 

Can you give us a bit more detail? I take it you are capturing syslogs? 

#1 would be great!

That would definitely be useful!

The UDT capacity report is current. If you want to see how it looks over time you'll end up with a very busy table and I wouldn't recommend doing it this way. I would be tempted to create a custom chart for each switch to show port utilisation. This way you could easily see which switches have lots of ports utilised and…

There are out of the box reports that may do the job here or could easily be changed to support what you want to do here. UDT Capacity or UDT Unused ports - Group by device.

The output bit at the bottom of the script body enables you to test your scripts. This is really useful.

Best place to do this is IPAM natively. An Alert could be configured to monitor event 20252 to capture the status of the DHCP server failover. docs.microsoft.com/.../dn338988(v=ws.11)

When teams hand over their apps and servers from transformation into an operational state, they should provide a list of port requirements for each application to you, this makes your job a little easier. RDP uses 3389 but of course if thats the only port you leave open a lot of other stuff won't work. So its a case of…

This is not specific to Dameware. A lot of software when given admin creds can install over the network. Best way to fix these kinds of issues is make sure your permissions are locked down so that people don't have admin rights, use a product like Access Rights Manager to help you with this. A good review of Active…

I find vrops itself only really covers part of what SolarWinds can do. SolarWinds out of the box is much easier to configure and with the added features that the other products provide over and above what VMAN does you have a much better product. It's cheaper too unless you get vrops for free which seems to be the case…

Same here. I got a new laptop and was playing around and enabled NVIDIA desktop manager and Solar Putty started opening new sessions in a separate Putty Window. Disabled the desktop manager and bingo- works as intended and opens sessions as tabs w/in Solar Putty.

All you need is a spotty hanky and a stick and a supply of bacon and coffee.

thanks @"Seashore" I was thinking the same. SWQL it is.

Linux loves to use the RAM it can, for caches and shared mem. That's just what happens unless you tune that out. If you want to see just the hard-allocated RAM instead of the opportunistic stuff it can reap and reallocate if need be, you'll have to do some math (I'm a nagios guy so I'm not sure that's possible here). I…
