actually it is part of v3...it is what makes v3 secure. It is not a traditional ssh connection.

Hmmm.....interesting for some, possibly scary for others. In the end, do you really want to know ? Do you ?

Since the product is named after a constellation why not name the versions by names of moons. Of course you could use the names of stars in the Orion Constellation of which the Geek in us should embrace Betelgeuse Rigol is another that would important to the Star Trek geeks... Or you can go with names of Greek or Roman…

I haven't seen any but from time to time in discussions you find those little gems..

That is so true...he just needs to get past 11.5.1. 11.5.2 or better.

The hotfixes were related to NPM 11.5.1 - 11.5.2 so they may not apply. There may have still been some patches. Also the images you pasted in are not showing...at least for me.

what core platform version are they running ?

Congrats superfly99​ ! Now comes the longer climb to level 17 and even longer to 18...

What are you attempting to accomplish with this script? Is this in response to an event or just a periodic check of values? In what form is the output? Do you do anything with the output?

adding @"yumdarling" and @"danielleh" 

As with any new monitoring tool, learning the layout of the landscape and understanding how it works in order to better use it takes some time. Another important thing is learning its limitations with regard to what you are trying to do. Things like what aspects of the database are exposed for the polling engine and any…

I would private message one of the community managers with the info. Including @"danielleh" and @"yumdarling" 

Welcome to the rabbit hole Eliza! You will find this is a great and very helpful user community here.

There is an idea out there that may help you if we can get Solarwinds to implement. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/xcdhs76427/board/message?board.id=npm-feature-requests&message.id=5521#M5521

My past experience with regards to iSeries and SNMP was the systems team could not get the SNMP agent stable enough to be useful. In a prior life we used a different tool to monitor iSeries as it allowed to to respond to console messages, run commands, etc.

I ran across it this morning and about died laughing ! I figured it needed sharing and with the geeks on here it was the place to do it.

There are a number of ways to skin that cat. First it depends on what/how you are monitoring your linux server with. SNMP, Agent, etc. Once we know what tools are involved we can help to suggest a solution. If you have a log file monitor, you can use that to read the file directly and only process the last line as they…

I've seen them there for awhile but they always shown as out of stock.

doing a little google search and assuming it uses the Kaco proLOG you might look at this document: https://www.altestore.com/static/datafiles/Others/KACO_proLOG_manual.pdf

It might be worthwhile to use wireshark to see what you can see traffic wise from the inverter. If you can figure out protocol, then you are on your way....assuming it is in the clear. If it is encrypted or through a https process, you may not have much of an opportunity.

I would not call that a bug. Most usernames while being a string of characters, usually does not include a space as a valid character since that may be confusing to the shell environment. This depends on platform as well. Try using an id such as namesurname as a single string without spaces.

Using the JMX interface in SAM you can monitor things like java heap, garbage collection, free memory, etc. You must enable the JMX interface on the windows server and generate an id/password for SAM to use. It is easier to test connectivity using jconsole before pointing SAM at it. Here are some bits of info on this. Java…

You need to report this to the Thwack admins, any of the community managers should do.

Send a private message to @"danielleh" and @"yumdarling" regarding this.

That is the command that needs to run on the linux server and the output needs to be returned to Orion. You could build an executable script on the linux server that issues that command. That script is run via ssh from Orion so that you are not having to push a script at every execution.

on the unis server, what do you get when you enter the command hostname -I | awk '{print $1}' Also check forward and reverse lookups of both hostnames and ip addresses to rule out a DNS issue.

Welcome to Thwack, The Best User Community!!!

What sort of things are you trying to integrate? If you are trying integrate nagios events into Orion I would use the unix agent and watch the /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log file, or better yet, sent up your event objects to use an event handler so you can massage the event with perl or something and reformat it into…

You are likely looking for some evidence the server is responding to some higher level external interaction. If it is busy, SNMP is not a good choice as it gets dropped being a lower priority protocol. Ping is not viable because (and especially in todays virtual environments) a hung server can still have an interface that…
