Hi, We (managed to get a DBA to help) have already tried this and get the same error.

1. I will try that 2. ha ha, one is colour blind yes (red and green yikes), as most of these maps etc are on big screens from a distance you can see a flashing icon much easier than a red, green, amber icon, you tend to focus on that straight away. 3. We have to use firefox to rotate maps, what would be great would be…

i get this error using that URL: Orion Website Error An error has occurred with the Orion website. Additional Information System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format. at…

Hi Yann, Yeah I have tried both, but nothing shows up, but does for other classes. All I am doing is selecting the host and Name Space as Root\CIM2 and then just selecting Win32_TemperatureProbeand seeing the if the instances box returns anything - is this the right method? As for Manufacturer, do I just need to find out…

So I have to have 2 x NPM installed on my 2 separate servers and these will send there data back to the SQL server? So to view all the nodes can I get to either website on both NPM servers? I thought I have 1 x SQL, 1 x NPM, 1 x addidional Polling Engine? I guess I'm confused.

Damn, but great news for the future. We have 100's of devices that could use this feature should you include it. Are there any timelines please as this is a big feature we would like to plan to use? Thanks

I totally agree, NPM is great but you have to customise so much of it yourself. For example how many companies use Dell servers? I had to spend weeks using UnDP's show attributes such as, disk raid level, disk health, temps etc very basic stuff but critical to enterprises. This is the same with Cisco/Nortel equipment, how…

This is exactly what I need to do, where/how do I create these icons and import them?

 Think I have nearly transformed the results, how can I add GB or MB to the end?

1.) Great! 2.) Hmm, what can I do this, also can it say MB or GB at the end? 3.) Is the UnDP tabular resource the only way do do this or can I use another view type?

Hi, I did a MIB walk against one and a lot of good info came back, I still haven't found the time to do this, but will soon. I take it you are using the free Dell Equallogic SAN Headquarters software for the moment? If not you will be amazed.

What device is it? Brand/Model/Firmware? It is one of many digital LCD's that have XP as the OS. These are custom built not by us so have many different models. What part is important to gain temp and fan speeds etc? What OID is using the other company? I have since found out they use an agent that runs on the OS called…

Hi, I did and they said it's an SQL issue so they can't help! And asked me to find a DBA. 

This isn't the website it's the actual NPM GUI on the Solarwinds Orion server:

These RSS feeds are mainly from internel sources. We have an internal helpdesk website, it would be nice to show the support teams current open calls or just my open calls. So the summary page will show the general health of our LAN and WAN aswell as an open calls.

They seems to be a bit of both, I'm not infront of my NPM server until tomorrow now, but can I copy and paste into the bulk upload from my spreadsheet?

1 = Thanks 2 = latency from NPM to remote devices is 15ms to 25ms. The sites are all over London/UK, we don't ave the budget at this time to add to all these sites, something to think able moving forward. 3. When we plan and downtime on our WAN link or firewalls to stop the email alerts I simply disable the alerts, is this…

Thanks, I've done many mib walks in the past for, so I will create my own UnDP, I thought it was avaliable "out of the box" being a Cisco device. Orion is great, but it does miss the important areas sometimes, for example on Cisco devices CPU, mem etc are important, but in my line of work these interface details are just…

Thanks for the link, I've imported the UnDP for my Dell Server's temp, it's result comes back as '3', which means 'ok'. How can I display: 3 = ok 4 = non-critical 5 = Critial As the numbers mean nother to most users monitoring. Thanks

Well it's good news it will happen at some point I guess, thanks. I take it we will see something in 2010?

Manual move it is :) What service do I need to stop before I move nodes?

I don't see this in my add resources to column screen, is this a report from report writer by any chance?

Also if you have more than one box, how would you get the data to come into one Soalrwinds website, is it like a farm?

It would be 2000 servers and workstations CPU, MEM, Drive space, switches we would need to know if the ports were up or down.

Thanks, do you have a screenshot of how your's looks? I want a page of all our servers and disk health. I just uploaded arrayDiskState and it shows my 2 arrays (1 and 2) as online, is there any way to show each disk and it's health? Thanks

I use Dell servers and have about 50 event ID's that I need to be alerted on and have the alert sent to be with the Description. For example of a Disk fails Dell's Open Manager logs it to the event logs with a description of what disk has failed etc, can all this be email to me? This is what MOM ca do.

Hi, We only have the 2 servers to use here. There will be no extra mods for this, we will poll for stats every 5 minutes and keep data dor 1 year only. Can the SQL install go on the polling engine server?

Hi Yann, That link only seems to show the total amount of connections and not the usernames (clients), unless I'm doing something wrong, I can attach a screenshot?

I have 100's of devices, do I have to select each one by one and select unmanage, or is there a quick way?

This worked! based on my screenshot how can I change the columns order? I need the threshold to be at the end and the Location name to be at the begining.
