Yes, you can restrict a user account to specific interfaces only. It is done from Settings > Manage Accounts. Edit the user and follow the Account Limitations button

For the ones that are downloading, it is the full config or a partial download? Are the devices you want to backup and NCM in the same location?

Which one? What do you need to monitor on this system?

There is no way to get this via WMI or other means. You will need to know which folders are used by the service, and set up directory size monitors for these folders

RichardLetts​, You can customize machine types in NPM. Please see When Good OIDs Go Bad: Customizing Device Pollers

You can do this in NPM using UnDP (Universal Device Poller) Transforms If you need to do this is SAM, you can do mathematical operations like multiplication, division, etc on a single OID but cannot combine 2 separate OIDs (because they would be 2 different component monitors). However, you can use something like below…

Either your SNMP credentials are incorrect OR Zyxel device hasn't been configured properly OR this device/model simply doesn't support this MIB/OID. You may want to do a MIB walk first to see which OIDs this device responds to SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: SolarWinds SNMP Walk: A new tool for collecting SNMP MIB walks

Did the patches get deployed on these computers? Can you reboot manually using the reboot action of the actions pane?

All the indicators look healthy. Do you have any additional polling engines, and if yes are these nodes assigned to the additional polling engine? You may want to try replacing the job engine files SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Collector Data Processor and Collector Polling Controller start and stop intermittently

Hardware health for ESX hosts is provided out of the box by Server & Application Monitor, not by NPM

What's the license size of NPM and NCM? What is the current spec of your VM?

Assuming this is in the netflow charts. Why chart specifically? A screenshot would help

What exactly is the concern with collecting flow data over the WAN link? To answer your questions, It is possible to deploy a polling engine in the datacenter and use it pretty much to collect netflow data. With top talker optimization, you can expect a significant savings in bandwidth compared to sending all the flows…

It is better to create custom properties for your nodes (say AlertRecipient). You can reference the recipient(s) as a macr instead. ${Nodes.AlertRecipient} instead of hardcoding. You can multi-edit the custom property from the web console. It is much easier to manage from the web console rather than edit every alert You…

see the evaluation guide in the documentation section of the website. For the action you describe to work, there must be a) enough log messages for the discovery to determine the correct device type b) LEM must have a connector to handle these logs the eval guide walks you through how to check for the messages and the…

It is an easier job for Web Performance Monitor (WPM) as it can capture screenshots of each step of a multi-step web transaction http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/Orion/SEUM/Summary.aspx

See suggestions and solutions for same use case Advanced alerts

jcoursey‌ NCM can provide a report like this http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/Orion/Report.aspx?ReportID=7385&ReturnTo=aHR0cDovL29yaW9uZGVtb2FwYWMuc29sYXJ3aW5kcy5… UDT can give you an unused ports report http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/Orion/Report.aspx?Report=UDT_Unused_Ports&ReturnTo=aHR0cDovL29yaW9uZGVtb2FwYWMuc29sY…

Please move this to the LEM forum.

The equivalent command should be screen-length 0 temporary If you are running the latest version of NCM, there is an official template

hi Cassandra, My suggestion would be to create a User Defined Group and use it in a filter. Look at the Provider SID field for the LEM Events you are interested in. You can then build a User Define Groups with the exact values you see in the Provider SID field as per this KB…

Crystal Reports is 3rd party software that you will need to purchase from SAP directly - http://www.crystalreports.com/ LEM reports utility includes Crystal Reports runtime only. The full version is required to build custom templates.

Yes. See http://www.kiwisyslog.com/products/kiwi-syslog-server/product-overview.aspx * Collect log data from Syslog messages (both UDP and TCP), SNMP traps and Windows Event Logs (through the included Windows Event Forwarder)

Your NCM version must be 7.4 or above. You can check the version in the footer of the web console

When you customize a Node Details view, you are actually customizing it for all nodes. You can set different views for different Device Types (Follow the Settings > Views by Device Type link). You can of course define different Node Details views for different user accounts as well. With that said, you should be able to do…

What are the exact commands you ran to enable netflow?

hi Jon, Its probably easier to search using the 'Search for Nodes' resource you can add to a View.

Have you tried Application Custom Properties? It *should* be possible to reference these in alert actions.

IP SLA is a Cisco technology, and I don't believe Mikrotik has equivalent functionality available in their routers

Unfortunately, this is still true. Orion can use an AD account to connect to the database during the Configuration Wizard process, create the database, setup the monitoring user, etc but for normal operation of the polling engine it can only use a SQL account.
