  • That is along the lines I was thinking, perhaps by using a numeric field to depect each layer for main core all the way down to sites. The most unfortuante thing is there is no way to test as we do not have a matching test environment and I don't think I could convince NetEng team to take down a core device!!

  • I have both windows and UNIX servers. I have figured out the Windows ones pretty much, have groups supply the executable name and add to a template, any ideas on the UNIX stuff?
    in APM on a standard Server Comment by Mike_C July 2008
  • No need to kill your DB (and possiblly corrupting it), this is due to NetPerfMon constantly read/write to DB, just kill NetPerfMon Service via task manager after setting service to disable in the service properties tab. We monitor over 15,000 elements (5861 nodes, 8.345 Interfaces, and 2103 volumes) and we run at approx…

I have tried putiing Caption is equal to / and Caption is equal to /var in trigger under all conditions must be met. Also tried putting under supress section with Caption is not equal to / Caption is not…

  • We were running on SP3 before we migrated to VM's, and we have been running fine even after adding APM and NPM on it. Just recently seems to have degraded in performance.

  • Yes the node in Orion is configured to use port 1161, I get all the standard info like volumes , memory and cpu, but when I tried this OID in Universal Poller it comes back as not supported on one net-snmp box and on the other it just comes back with one process (swapper) and nothing else, and by doing a ps -e on each box…

  • Wondering if this appliees to something we have had a question on. Our network maop shows the entire US (we have multiple sites in every state. State maps are nested in the US view. Currently, if 1 node goes down in a state, the state map status shows red, someone mentioned that this used to cause the state map to show…

  • I have used email distribution lists many times and have had no issues with them, the SMTP server should be receiving the email alert and distributing it to all the recipents on the list, have your Mail team look into it as it sounds like it is a Mail issue and not an issue with Orion. Also, look on the Event Logs on the…

  • If someone customized a Resource for a web view, and renamed it (nodes down--changed to group by type [adsl, cable, DIA] and created a different name, does anyone know where to find that so it can be edited? Name was changed from down nodes to Lexington Clinics and I can not find it anywhere.

  • Has this ever been resolved? I am having the same issue, and I am running latest versions
    in Report Scheduler link problems Comment by Mike_C May 2008
  • This is caused by the fact that the NetPerfMon Service is almost constantly reading/writing to the DB and that the Service is set to auto start itself (when you kill from Task manager) Our standard procedure is to set the NetPErfMon (and Netflow) services to disabled, then kill via task manager. Once install or upgrade is…

  • I have installed on my test envirenment before roling it out to my 2 production enviorinments. So far so good, like a lot of the new features. One I am still hoping gets in soon is the 1) the ability to add notes to an alert acknowledgement so support can add, and 2) have solarwinds track to alertlog table who and when…
