still not fixed in Observability 2025.4.1

Hi Jason, we need some more information to offer the Help. What type of Hardware (windows/Linux Server, Network Device(if poss what type of device) and what component) and what platform SHO or Saas

Hi, I had the same problem. Here the link to the way I resolved the issue. The page gives you some guidance on how to monitor IIS and how to get a report as well. you can then schedule the report to find out what SSL Certs are about to expiry. IIS Website certificates information and report monitoring - Forum - Server &…

Use Test 1 or 2 but use exclude the.100.98 at the end of the Varbinds OID or Name. the Varbind elements need to be an exact match before it will look at the value being returned. ie. Trap OID is equal to 1.3.6.1.4.1.29286.4.2.1.1.1 VarBind Element with OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.29286.4.2.1.2.1.1.3.100.98 is equal to alarm(1) or…

Sorry, I missed this part. We use a custom Property Called "Environment". the query could be failing because you dont have/use this custom property. Remove the line [Node].CustomProperties.Environment, from the query. Also replace this section (incase you missed it) '<NAME OF MONITORING TEMPLATE>' with the name of the…

Try using AssetTag, We use them to define what service need monitoring. eg, IIS, WEB = Monitoring IIS Services (w3svc) SSLW = Monitor IIS Web SSL Certs (custom Powershell script) I think you get the meaning. The create a Group with a dynamic query, Create a template with the services you want to monitor. using my examples.…

From the main Application/Poller engine create a Diag file as if you where going to upload it to SolarWinds. Login to the SolarWinds Customer Portal, under the Technical Support heading there is an option to Orion Insights Environment Review. Upload the diags zip file. wait 24hrs as I think their process is scheduled to…

The problem was in the powershell code. You almost had it. Line 23. [Int]$MinutesSinceModified = ((Get-Date) - $LastModified).TotalMinutes you need to use the New-TimeSpan function to work out the time diff in minutes. I've also updated line 30. as I've found that sometime the $(var) process does not work. Here's my code…

It's monitoring Hardware / Asset Inventory. You can create an application monitor based on a group. If you could give more detail on what you are trying to monitor in your application and what you are hoping for, we might be able to help. The initial request was how to create a group with Dell PowerEdge node in. If you…

Hi tvminser, I hope I have understood your requirements. I could not work out if you wanted a Custom Query/Table on your Classic view or a Report. The reason why you are getting duplicates is due to the node might have more than 1 Application assigned that could have a problem (not up) Either Way, here is my solution for…

Yaquaholic, was almost there. :-) Update: changed Statistic Code's, got them in the wrong order. Here some code that should help you out. Returns an Statistic Warning (1) NO AV Signature detected, Statistic Critical (2) an Error running script and a Statistic Up (0) AV Signature found. Returned an Exit Code as the link…

You could always try the Application Template Module Monitor TCP Port. This can monitor a port from a monitored node. TCP Port Monitor

I would use Shuth solution, set the Warning or Critical level to Greater Than or Equal to 1 The you can create an email alert based upon the file counter monitor targeting the correct Teams. if you are looking for a particular File Name or Extension, the change those element ie. Only Log file. Entension "Log" Only…

Try This, Create a group with a dynamic query. this means any new nodes that match the query will automatically be added to the group, saves time and people forgetting to add them to the group. I find that it takes about 10 mins for any new system to be added to the group. Set the SolarWinds platform object to "Overall…

Yes it can, My tip for you is to make sure you have downloaded the latest MIB's Update the SolarWinds MIB Database for the SolarWinds Platform

Hi, I had the same problem. Here the link to the way I resolved the issue. Take a look at the Last one, assign the monitoring template to a node then copy the PowerShell element. you can then monitor multiple sites with the same IP or DNS Names. ie. 172.20.10.10 (default site) 172.20.10.10/TestSite (test site) or…

Hi Oliverbennett89 , Sorry, your suggestion is not clicking for me. Where do I set these options please, In my KPI Widget I have Presentation and Value 1 in Value 1, I have 3 options: Description (Label, Background Colour and Units), Data Model (Custom SWQL as above) and Thresholds (Never show Critical or Warning states…

The Modern dashboard is the best way to get a quick overview of your infrastructure. Can we have a KPI Widget that allows you to change the colour similar to the Threshold function but for a Status value. ie. the value in the centre would be a node/application count value but change the colour based on a status value and…

Thanks for the feeback, I did think that it was not available, may be one for the SolarWinds Dev team for future features to the modern dashboard.

Hi Maceo, I've recently done something for our backup support team. SolarWinds has a couple of Veeam 6 & 7 backup templates but not 12. You need to grant the SolarWinds monitoring account read only access to the Veeam One/Management server to execute the PowerShell plug-in. Execute the Powershell as this account in the…

You're welcome. nice to give something back to the community.

Hi Raiden100, Sorry I'm a little late to the game but not sure if you have found an answer to your problem. I also had a similar issue, where the SAM template only monitors the first website within IIS, and not any others. I also found that some of the information gathered was not very useful when trying to work out which…

HI, I know it's a little late, but I'm new to the forum. Open a modern Dashboard and add a Table Widget on to the page. Enter the following in into the custom SWQL SELECT [_Node].SslCommonName, [_Node].SiteID, [_Node].SslDaysRemaining, [_Node].SslExpiryDate FROM Orion.APM.IIS.SiteBinding AS [_Node] WHERE ([_node].Port =…

yeah, tried that. because the CASE statement is inner element of the COUNT function, it just returning the count number. Even thought of using a CONCAT function to joined the small status gif images to the count number but I can't get that to work either. :-(
