To my knowledge there are no limitations in an evaluation version with regards to the SDK/API

hi tayyabrao​, what you want to alert on is "alert me when a component goes down" -> your event log monitor is a Component. I tend to make my alerts as generalized as possible and use Custom Properties/Names/ ... as variables in the alerts. Keep in mind that each alert is nothing else as a "Select From" SQL Statement, so…

Nicely done!

Thanks for clearing that up!

Then this looks good. There must be something else that causes the freeze. It does not seem to be the weight on the polling engine. do you have a lot of alerts configured (above 300) that are evalu each minute? This can cause load on the core Server.

Hi, it’s been a while and I don’t remember if we exchanged the info what brand/model the device is? I would see if I can check with a similar device. cheers

Nope no issues. I even had some duplicated databases named "SolarWindsOrion1" "SolarWindsOrion2" SolarWindsOrion3" for testing purposes that were not utilized. It might be that I am known by some people on the EMEA Support Team that I am a Solarwinds Consultant and that I double check everything before opening a case. But…

There is a verb for adding Nodes to NCM. I believe it is even as simple as AddNodeToNCM... hope that points you into the right direction on one of your questions

of course you're right, I don't deal too often with licensing, just installing. Those count towards the "NPM-Part"

Hi Tim, NCM 7.1 SDK 1.6 Orion Core Version that came with the latest NPM Version

Poll for Asset Inventory data for a SAM node - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support SNMP is always used for Asset Inventory on Linux machines. The Agent seems not to be able to gather this information. This is the information I have

feel free. you know I am available

@"ohio38jr"jonathan is no longer working for Solarwinds, that's likely the cause why he didn't answer. I am currently as well looking for Upgrading HP Devices Firmware with NCM so I will keep you posted about my findings here.

So it seems you already got it. you can either store your password in the Script here: # SolarWinds user name and password section. Create an Orion local account that only has node management rights. Enter the user name and password here. $username = your-sdk-username $password = your-sdk-user-password and modify this Line…

Where exactly are you trying to install the SDK? On your Orion Server?

You don't need the API Key, this is just for the Chocolatey. Currently there is only username and password authentication for the API available. If you need Key Based Authentication voteon the following feature requests here:…

@"itengineer" yes, when you enable NOC view it let’s you choose the rotation time

You can have a Look on the "All Settings"-Page and "Custom Properties" it is pretty self explanatory. Custom properties are like Tags you can add to certain entities in Orion.

Did you find anything on the backend authentication system?

Do you need to do this task frequently? Or maybe for more than 10 devices? I believe in concept it is possible, however I don’t know if the effort that it takes justifies for just a one time Task with 10 devices. I am thinking of this here: - create a custom property - fill that CP with the new node name by a SDK Script -…

the 1GB RAM limitations are also quite annoying for a Solarwinds implementation in a production environment...

On first thought I would say No, that is not possible. You would need to have some sort of "Availability-Software" in the middle...like Failover Engine. Why do you need to uninstall FoE? Is the product not working for you?

Sorry about the misunderstanding. I always use powershell-scripts with the SDK, haven't been using "real programs" that I developed myself. What are you trying to accomplish, maybe there is someone who already did something similar.

I have seen this in at least 10 customer environments, I am confident that this is expected behavior.

I would suggest, that you get the needed paperwork on track. There is so much new stuff to explore in the new releases. Orion Maps API Pollers Performance Improvements just to name a few. it‘s „wasted money“ for your licenses when you can’t use all those cool new features.

Could you check here: Test remote WMI connectivity I am not sure if you can monitor the Services over SNMP... I have to check that.

Unfortunately not. You could use "external websites" in Orion to make it look like they have a single dashboard but don expect too much of it.

#MURICA! I received one back in 2012, still using it.

I assume you let those scripts run via task scheduler. You would create the password file with the user that runs those scripts. it is not 100% secure but at least no plaintext passwords. It can only be decrypted in "normal ways" by the User that created the Passwordfile, so unfortunately there is no way to "give…
