I came across your post while looking for more information about what macros are available since I can't seem to find them using the "Insert Variable" button in the action builder. Found this: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-log-analyzer-variables-syslog-trap.htm Might be…

Hi @"sadiqsul", What type of device (node, volume, interface, app, etc.)? Can you share the details of the alert?

I have the same issue. I opened a support case about it. Guess if other people are experiencing it too, that means it's likely a bug.

Hi @"svindle", I was under the impression that when a node is 'physically' swapped out (hardware replaced, VM recreated, etc.) that it should be deleted from Orion and recreated as a new node. Could be that there's actually a way to get around doing that, but I'm not aware of any method(s). So, delete and rediscover is how…

Hi @"w.aldibbini", I think you're running into an issue with what values are returned. Here's the best guide I've found: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/product-forums/server-application-monitor-sam/f/forum/11856/sam-script-component-monitors---everything-you-need-to-know Based on the error you have I assume that your script…

Hi @"mmako8821", What kind of error? Is it timing out? If it's a time-out I would assume that it's due to the scope being too large (i.e.: the report is for all monitored interfaces). Are you able to share what the content and charts layout is?

Interesting question. Liked and comment to 'feed the algorithm'. Hope it gets answered.

I don't have a MAC myself, but out of curiosity, does this solve your issue? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39356413/how-to-add-a-custom-ca-root-certificate-to-the-ca-store-used-by-pip-in-windows

Hi @"jonathanlippe", The data will need to be formatted in a manner that Orion can parse. Assuming that you're using the Windows PowerShell Monitor component type (and not Windows Script Monitor), you'll need to have your data presented to Orion using the Write-Host commandlet. For example: Write-Host ("Statistic.1: " + 1)…

There's a dev case open for the issue. But there is a workaround: point the API connection at the polling engine that the node is assigned to for the ScheduleListResources (I'm also doing that for the GetScheduledListResources and ImportListResourcesResult). Been working great since we started doing it that way.

This should work: SELECT SSA.FullyQualifiedName , SSA.ApplicationAlert.ApplicationAvailability AS ApplicationAlert_ApplicationAvailability , SSA.ApplicationAlert.ComponentsWithProblems AS ApplicationAlert_ComponentsWithProblems , SSA.DetailsUrl , N.CustomProperties.Stedsnavn AS CustomProperties_Stedsnavn ,…

hmmm. Does your original query for just those work? SELECT n.CustomProperties.Stedsnavn AS CustomProperties_Stedsnavn , n.CustomProperties.City AS CustomProperties_City , n.CustomProperties.State AS CustomProperties_State FROM Orion.Nodes n

Hi @"mrahmed6979", I'm assuming that you need help primarily with how to do SQL queries, so apologies if that is not true and this seems a bit pedantic. Below I'll: * Show you how to structure a join statement and work with multiple tables * Show you how to avoid the joins in SWQL where navigational properties are…

Hi @"abimbola", Concerning the interfaces you want to have the report and dashboard related to: * Is it just certain interfaces, or all interfaces? If specific interfaces, what are their defining characteristics? * A single threshold for all interfaces, or would you like the interfaces to have different thresholds?

I am also experiencing this

I also received them. I just assumed there was a bug of some sort with the forum.

Sorry for leaving this hanging. I opened a support case, and will report back when we figure it out. Case# 01109050 in case you're interested.

Affirmative. Shamelessly copied from the samples on the Orion SDK Github.

Depends. When I'm doing it in SWQL studio, I just feel it out. Some times a few seconds, I've also waited a minute or so sometimes. (checking multiple times of course, not just giving up immediately) When I did it in the code I had $TimeBetweenChecks between 2 - 15 seconds in duration. I also had $Timeouts between 45…

Is that YAML? I don't see a suppressFrom or suppressUntil time specified in there. Are you doing that in the code that executes the definition supplied? Aside from that, nothing in your code jumps out at me. I'd consider performing it via SWQL studio, to eliminate the code being a potential variable in the problem? Any…

Might want to check if for some reason the SID changed (i.e.: there was an AD migration of some sorts). If the SIDs are still the same, I would try converting a user who is a member of a an affected security group: * Add the user as an individual AD account * Disable the group If they can authenticate that way, you've at…

Yes, that is correct. I currently have two environment (issue happening in both): * production: Orion Platform 2020.2.6 HF4 * development: Orion Platform 2020.2.6 HF5 Generally speaking, I won't get an "Unknown" unless the process is broken, or after I complete the ImportListResourcesResult. Makes sense for it to occur…

I'd look at the NCM.NodeProperties section. I'm not getting any results from that entity in my environment. I do have nodes being managed by NCM, but I'm not doing a ton with NCM yet, so it could be that I just don't have any data there and you would.

Hi @"peter.lewis_NetWolves", The example that @"KMSigma.SWI" posted is actually PowerShell. The credentials will be ones that have permission within Orion (whether an Orion Individual Account or via Active Directory). This might be a good primer for getting started with the API: (Episode #86) Orion SDK 101: Intro to…

Yes, the List Resources button in the website still works, even when the issue with the API is encountered.

Hi @"KMSigma.SWI", The ScheduleListResources works the vast majority of the time, but the GetScheduledListResources just stays in Unknown forever. The website works fine (the List Resources button on the manage nodes page) even when the API doesn't. Support doesn't assist with these issues since it's "API related", so…

I wanted to bring this issue up as well. In my experience this part of the discovery engine is extremely fragile. Even if I'm not using a script to perform this, just using the verbs directly from SWQL studio. The process of ScheduleListResources → GetScheduleListResourcesStatus fails so often that automating our node…

Sounds like an AccountSID mismatch/missing. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/product-forums/the-orion-platform/f/orion-sdk/44700/swis-swql-studio-api---windows-group-authentication-issue…

Hi @"dkeyser", I'm wondering if you're just referencing the wrong IDs, that's what I did at first. It appears that it's actually the Orion.AlertActive.AlertObjectID that you want. That correlated with: I used this code to validate: # Confirmed successfull with a single ID $AlertObjectIDs = @(49323) $Notes = "Testing API"…

Right, sorry, forgot that part. I guess I might try changing it anyway, just throwing things at the wall at that point. When I've had to do it, I'll use this PowerShell one-liner to get the SID: (Get-ADUser -Identity 'YourAccountID').SID.Value Beyond that, I don't know. Sorry.
