  • Is the Node pingable from your solarwinds server. By default the up/down is measured by PING. however you can change that to SNMP if you know SNMP is working on the machine. Hit the "list Resources" button and pick SNMP for Status polling
  • Hey Guys, do you have any update on this topic, we are facing a similar task and would like to hear your experience.
  • Just like superfly99​ mentioned, it is only possible with a separate „write memory job“. if you have separate vendors, you need to build dedicated jobs for each vendor to issue the specific commands. you would then run the job after your nightly Config backup job.
  • Kind of an old thread, but were you able to resolve it with christopher.t.jones123​ Links and suggestions? If not let us know so we can point you further to the Powershell monitoring basics.
  • It could be that those devices only allow SNMP from the IP of your old Orion instance. Maybe you need to modify the ACL on those devices. cheers
  • The "problem" here is, that you need to take the matching string that you found with your regEx (e.g. neighbor 10.1.1.142 = $String) and find the exact same string as a prefix with a trailing password -> "$String password" I haven't had the need for this in the past and I am no expert on regEx, but this might give you a…
  • To my knowledge there is no 'out-of-the-box' support for vmware NSX (had to google what the NSX stands for) from a short research I did, you could use SNMP-Traps to monitor your NSX environment, Other than that I have seen there is an API where you can pull out information from NSX. You could write yourt own scripts to…
  • with the "Dynamic IP" ticked, solarwinds needs to be able to resolve the name to an IP-Address. as you stated you are on a different subnet/network/domain it might not be able to do that. With this said, I'd go with "delete the node and re add it" or enable Network Discovery and let the node be discovered automatically.
  • if possible you can just delete the node from: Settings -> Manage Nodes -> search for the node, check the box and delete it from the menu Try adding it manually -> Settings -> Manage Nodes -> Add Node Hope this helps
  • did you change anything on the SQL Box? Could there be a performance bottleneck on the database? I usually see this type of issues with slow database responses. Enable Hubble in the log adjuster and check if you see high wait times on the database. Other than that there have been recent posts about interface deletion…
  • here are the functions SWQL supports SWQL Functions · solarwinds/OrionSDK Wiki · GitHub convert() is not suppoted. you would need to wrap your SWQL queries into another script (e.g. PowerShell) to convert the values
  • What kind of performance issues are you facing? Is the website loading slowly or do you have problems polling your systems. In case you have a slow responding website I'd consider getting an additional webserver. As I have stated many many many times, it is worth the money. Additional webserver is one of the most…
  • Hey, thanks for asking this question, this is one of my favourite topics, why should you use an additional webserver. - it is one of the most "value for the buck" license in the solawinds world. - I don't have an actual number but it mus be around 500€ - you can more easily identify web performance issues that might arise…
  • to dig up this older thread: rschroeder​ we have the same issue here, that the calculation of free space is not working, did you ever sort out this issue
  • some screenshots of the error message and the action you are trying to accomplish would be great to help you out.
  • You guys might want to vote here
  • Unfortunately not. it might be possible to let a background script check the values and give a return value of 1 whenever something is wrong. BR, Holger
  • If you are a reseller, you can attend the Solarwinds Partner Summit to get your Training and Certification there.
  • Another thing could be, that you want to create a new SWDBUser, to do this you need sa rights. I am not too sure about the process, but if your user has no sysadmin rights, it could be that Config Wizard just tries sa without a password (Hail Mary shot)
  • Could you please screenshot the individual steps. It might be that you selected the option to use the sa user in one of the previous menus
  • Please elaborate a bit more on your needs. I assume that you want to monitor with SAM. you might be able to pull this information from a registry or any form of text file. I have no clue what cognose is, but google told me this: IBM How to find the build and version of the Cognos ReportNet or Cognos 8 installed - United…
  • Hi All lately the restrictions with Module-versions is a bit more tight than in the past, I assume this is due to the fact that there are so many new cool features and Integrations coming to the product. These features integrate into all modules so they depend on each other. I had some troubles getting evervthing up to…
  • After several attempts to map „Nodes“ to the Worldwide Map, I found that you will most likely run into issues when placing Nodes. The maximum number that can be displayed is not too high, was it 1000 or 5000, I can’t remember. i started to place Groups onto the World wide map. I do this via the SDK.
  • Are you using the default connection profile? And what did you set as default for that profile?
  • Alright, so I was able to read some more documents. the Device seems to support SNMPv3 only (Installation Manual Page 83) now we either need to „bruteforce“ the combinations what encryption and authentication methods are used by the device or we need deeper documentation from Barco. will keep you posted here what I can find
  • There is some learning curve involved. You might want to test in a lab environment, I found that it helped me a lot to play around with Container Manipulation via PowerShell by just exploring and trying. The Link mesverrum​ provides was also my starting point back in the days.
  • Do you own NPM only or is SAM also licensed? If SAM is in the Game I would have a look at the new API Pollers. from what I‘ve read in the last 5-10 minutes on the Barco Website is the following: SNMP functionality: Parameters exposed via SNMP agent are available via REST API: I am not sure if the Barco device only sends…
  • Is the correct Device Template Applied? Do you have SSH/Telnet credentials? Is the automatic Backup Job working? There are some training Webcasts available in the customer Portal. Maybe you attend one of the trainings. there are also many Solarwinds Consultants available who can help you with your SolarWinds implementation.
  • It seems you are not the only one AD Group Logon broken Re: Solarwinds AD integration Problems with AD Group Login (this seems most promising: Check the "allow logon locally" rights on your Solarwinds Server)
  • I'd start with removing and adding the group to the Orion web-console-login. Maybe something went wrong there. To my knowledge Orion just passes the logon credentials to the domain controller (with the Computer-account) and waits for a positive response. So as long as your Orion Server is an AD Member it should not need…
