  • Hi Can this query work for you? It is not using NTA as you only want to know the amount of traffic, not the type. It's looking at the interfaces connected to each VRF. SELECT I.node.Caption as [NodeName] ,i.Caption AS [IntName] ,VRF.Name , RouteDistinguisher ,T.Mbytes FROM Orion.Routing.VRF AS VRF INNER JOIN…
  • Hi Are we talking about the certificate for the website here? If so, you don't have to bother about that on the APE's. The other types of certificates are handled within solarwinds and there should not be a need to move them around.
  • How about setting up a new discovery job on those 200 nodes, and set up automatic monitor for these interfaces. Like this:
  • Hi @dibdob NPM alone can monitor a limited set of Azure and AWS features. AWS Direct Connect is not one of them. For that you need Observability Self Hosted Essentials. See here: Monitor cloud instances and VMs Feel free to ping me directly to know more.
  • Hi @NightAngel007 , if it's CPU or memory you want to show, and it's not supported out of the box. I suggest you create another type of poller. Under "All settings" you find them under "Manage Pollers". They are called Device Studio Poller. See also here:…
  • Hi If you create a report with a custom table, then build a report on all nodes. You will find device name / Caption and IP address right away. To see model and serial/Service tag, change the upper left down down in the "add column" dialog to "Overall hardware statuses" and you will find those values. See below picture.…
  • Hi @NightAngel007 You can do as romea-donca said, just use the built in widgets if you want. If you want to go for the Custom Widget approach, I'd go with Custom Query Widget. Note that SWQL and UnDP's are not the beginners class…. UnDP's come in two ways: single value or tables. The SWQL query, and the built in widgets,…
  • Have you tried to add it from the UnDP tool on the server? This method should be the easiest way. And yes, all assigned UnDP's should be listed under orion.NPM.CustomPollerAssignment
  • Hi there What Alert Type are we talking about here? And I guess there is a variable that give you the lines you want to modify, what is that? Have you found out?
  • I would go for new servers, both for the application and sql parts. Migrate the database is easy. Just shutdown solarwinds services, copy over the database and run config wizard on all solarwinds servers. Move the application takes a bit more thinking. Look at this guide: Migrate SolarWinds Platform products to a new…
  • Looks like there is some custom components used in that legacy view. One option you can use in the built in modern dashboards is the Proportional widget. Then it can look something like this: SWQL Query used for this looks likt this: SELECT Count(N.nodeid) as QTY ,S.StatusName ,n.Status ,s.Color FROM Orion.Nodes as N INNER…
  • The account have the same rights in the GUI as in the API. If the account has access to NCM in the webconsole, it will have access to NCM via the API. But as @cnorborg said, do you have any nodes in NCM? Does the query work in SWQL studio?
  • Great to hear you made some progress! UDP app, I am assuming you mean the UDT app in solarwinds, user device tracker. It can give those messages, but that is for a completely other thing. See here for one example on how to add the widgets: View Universal Device Poller statistics
  • If you go to your customer portal, you will find training materials and video classes. In the class called "Configuring Self-Hosted Platform Users and Entity Monitoring" there is one section about dashboards. Network atlas is depricated and should not be used. It was only for creating maps, and map building is now built in…
  • Here you have a page with several links to pages on how to create dashboards, both classic and modern dashboards: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-customizing-the-orion-web-console-sw1367.htm
  • From the demo page: https://hco.demo.solarwinds.com/apps/platform/dashboard/SecObs-Summary I can see that SWOSH have some ARM data that is close to what you want. Do you see the information you are after there in your SWOSH? If so, we can create an alert on it. Not sure what data ARM is pushing to SWOSH.
  • Am I right in that you have created a new "Switch Summery-Switch Details page" and you want that view to show up in the left-side-navigation? That will not happen unless you go and edit the node details page and add another tab, as you did with the UPS tab. If it's a completely new node details page, for switches, with…
  • Looks good! About the views, are we talking about "Summary Views", with information from several devices, or "Node details views", with data from a single device? You are talking about "left nav of switches", so I am assuming you mean node details pages. There is one "default node details view" and several "device type…
  • Hi Can it be that you are creating a poller from the web-gui? A "Custom Poller"? You need to create a "Universal Device Poller", UnDP, here. (yes, the names are a bit confusing). The tool to create these are available if you log in to one of your pollers. Can it be that you have four disks there? So you get one row per…
  • Hi, if I'm not mistaking, the policy is checked each night at 23.55 (default) and upon manual och triggered updates. See more here: Find and remediate policy violations
  • Hi @jasonford1971 Depends on where the custom property is placed. Is it on the alert rule? In that case the Query could look like this: SELECT COUNT (A.AlertObjectID) AS Quantity FROM Orion.AlertActive AS A WHERE IsNull (A.Acknowledged, 0) = 0 AND A.AlertObjects.AlertConfigurations.CustomProperties.ResponsibleTeam LIKE…
  • Hi @KOHLIfied Palo Alto Rest API normally listens on TCP/443. The permissions required are listed here: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/npm/content/npm-monitor-palo-alto-firewalls.htm HOW the user is created in Palo Alto, I have no idea ☺️
  • @NVSteven You could make use of gMSA accounts, that way you don't have to bother about passwords: Use gMSA accounts for Windows polling @ajbmatt There are attempts to use WMI without local admin. Some say it works. See more here: Has Anybody Ever Gotten WMI to Work without Admin credentials - THWACK As normally WMI…
  • Hi @pcheh For most APC UPS devices, you shouldn't be needing to create Universal Device Pollers, UnDP, as APC is supported out of the box. You should be able to see info like this: A "list resources" on the UPS should give you a box to tick for these metrics. If you still need some UnDP's, you have to also add the widgets…
  • Hi @jere557 You could add a PowerShell based monitor that asks your AD how many accounts has passwords that expires within 30 days. When you have that information within SWOSH, you may create an alert on it.
  • Hi @thealexo Interesting approach. I think it will work! Just mind to clear the license store as you normally do when migrating to a new server. Thinking about the ServiceNow integration, how that will react. I would pause that integration before cloning and when on the new instance, make sure the two have at least…
  • Hi @bourlis Looks like you are right, it does not search in the related entity fields. Just tried on 2026.1RC1. But, a work around that seem to be working is to add another column BUT NOT SHOW IT. In below test, I have interface names with related nodes in column one. With only that it does not search for node names. But,…
  • To get the above inte a Custom SWQL Alert Trigger Condition, you have to form a query that uses both the mandatory part and the customizable part. Usually, I create the lower part first and then just join in the result with the mandatory part. Like this: -- Trigger Condition Manadatory part SELECT Nodes.Uri,…
  • Hi @patriot "NCM NodeID" is NOT EQUAL to "NPM/Core NodeID" (for some reason….) The table Cirrus.Nodes holds both values, joining in that table let you "move" between the two nodeid-types. SELECT n.NodeID FROM Cirrus.PolicyCacheResults AS r INNER JOIN Cirrus.Nodes AS CN ON R.NodeID=CN.NodeID INNER JOIN Orion.Nodes AS n ON…
  • Towards what database? Log db? in that case you have the config file for that one here: C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\OLM\LogStorage\LogConfig.config
