Okay, while I don't have much experience with the PXE environment, the no file/no access error hints to me of possibly a security/permissions issue where the client can't see file needed. OTOH, I was inquiring about the filename to see if maybe it had spaces or other characters in it.

Do you still have the 'or' for the server names ? If so you may need it to be 'and'

sounds like you are talking about event correlation...not something the product does out of the box.

Are they being added by hostname or ip address ? If they are being added by ip address I would suspect DNS reverse lookup may be wonky.

what about reverse lookup by IP ? If it can't resolve the IP to a host name it tends to use the IP address. This is not an uncommon problem for NMS tools.

Do you have any data via SNMP regarding the hardware health ? Temp Power supply voltage Etc?

I am also interested and have a couple of engineers who would like to see as well...

Kellie Mecham Don't forget DFW !! We're just a couple of hours..okay 3 hours north of you.

Kind of like Rich Data....this was the key word thrown around when a former employer was trying to implement a CMDB. We had very Rich Data because references were not normalized across all the data sources. The vendor couldn't handle it...

I can relate as I have lived that life several times so I feel your pain.

yes...that !! Kellie Mecham Oh wait...we still need schedules/calendars for maint. windows...

did it timeout or try and process a null value ?

Problem is when you pack them too deep you don't have any wiggle room for resources...then you get servers that are maxed out and vCops indicating they aren't using everything they have been assigned and the environment is further degraded because they are "right-sized". When in fact the resources are being hogged by other…

Okay so you should have gotten a down event for the switch unless it was on UPS. Are there other alerts that encompass your building/devices that could have fired as well?

You can likely do that with LEM, but I am not sure how reportable that environment is or for how long you can retain the data for reporting purposes. The request to me screams for something like Splunk which does that well and you can create some really nifty views/queries to report on that type of activity.

Just one time ?

Yes wluther​ it is....

katieb I'd also like to see those discussion points...

Thanks familyofcrowes​ !

I get it... The other day I at at #11 and was like....just want to make it into the top ten...well I jumped to #9 so I got that goal, not sure how that happened yet. Top 5 ??? Probably not likely. Too many big guns in that club. I'm just looking forward to making the 200k club.

^^^^ THIS +1 !!

Working with Solarwinds Developers as it appears something is amiss with the product (their words).

You probably don't....we use our dev/dr instance to monitor our production monitoring environment.

Thank you maria.bungau​ and stevenwhunt​

What kind of devices are these ? OS type would help too...

You have a challenge ahead...when the vendor of the SNMP agent "bundles" several like measurements into one counter that is available via SNMP then that is what you are unfortunately stuck with....unless they have another counter of some of those bundled numbers that you can subtract from the first to get closer to what…

Thanks...Hopefully this will help others with the same question.

One of the issues regarding the "no longer pertinate" content is that in some areas it is the only content on a topic. Search relies of Normalized data to be effective. Some use tags, some don't. Some tags are relavent and others aren't. Some people reference topics differently by using different names for the same thing.…

I have no experience with eyeshsare. When we had remedy I looked at what it would take to build and decided it was not worth the effort. We have since moved to ServiceNow.

fellowsm​, look at my response above your last one... There is not a native way to do that. You will have to do it out of band. Been there...was not worth the headache of building that interface to remedy because it would have to be rebuilt at their next product upgrade.
