you won't probably... In my environment I have the following settings: RETAIN DETAIL STATS7 DaysRETAIN HOURLY STATS30 Days so, stats for the first 7 days are ONLY in custompollerstatistics_detail try the following: SELECT TOP 1000 CP.UniqueName,CPA.AssignmentName,CPS.* FROM CustomPollerStatistics CPSinner join…

Does not seem to have made it into 11.5.1 -- we're experiencing the same issue with that version.

Ping and traceroute will not work -- these are ICMP/UDP based tools and are not proxied by the putty client. ping is proxied by the ICMP polling graph, and I think the netpath path of NPM12 solves the traceroute issue

hmm... well it's in the database and produces results with my version of SWQL studio: SELECT CustomPollerAssignmentID, RowID, Label FROM Orion.NPM.CustomPollerLabels

you want to use 1.3.6.1.2.1.14.10.1.6 ospfNbrStateto report the state of the neighbour -- that one is an enumeration. The value you picked it the the number of times this neighbor relationship has changed state, or an error has occurred. (not very useful) rather than the current state of the neighbour. /Richard

You're also not most customers... The University of Washington is much larger than people realize, and the network we mange is even larger. I only look after the network infrastructure so: we're five pollers (in FOE, making ten upgrades each time we bump a version) across 3 data centers, 6700 nodes; 38,000 elements, the…

Sorry, I've been working on a tricky network issue for a couple of days. what happens when you run the command from the command-line on the alert server? C:\Program Files (x86)\Growl for Windows\growlnotify.com /a:"Orion" /t:"A Network Node is Down!" /host:10.154.100.1 /pass:"mypass" "Test" if that does not display "test",…

yes, but for BIND. the screen shot Doesn't tell me what the actual DNS changes are going to be, it wants a zone, but doesn't tell me what records are going to be added or removed. I can't click on the 'What changes will be made' link until I've done the install, which makes planning harder I am concerned about it asking…

My record is 40 minutes for one product (an app server and 4 additional pollers, times two for FOE.) I cannot click the dialog boxes fast enough on the additional pollers to install them faster. :-) I don't have SAM, but a complete upgrade of NPM, NCM, UDT, IPAM, and NTA takes 2.5 hours. It is VERY tedious, we can't really…

Support has the hot fix, it's a new information service. they were working with my co-worker on the upgrade and provided him with the link.

I manage a NOC for 7 different networks stretching from Tokyo to Chicago, and also four hospitals including Harborview Medical Center​. We're here 24*365.25 the run book is NOT detailed -- see the Checklist Manifesto for the ethos behind this (https://www.amazon.com/Checklist-Manifesto-How-Things-Right/dp/0312430000 ) i.e.…

No. It does not work. But that might be because support told us to put the FQDN in there instead of the simple hostname. This has the result that the simple hostname (the main app server) then got added to this table as a http/non-ssl/port-80 additional webserver. With each major/step release of NPM we try the installer…

On the affected poller: a) what is showing in the Orion service manager b) what is in the logfile(s) for the Module Engine / BusinessLayer process? C:\ProgramData\Solarwinds\Logs\Orion *BusinessLayer*.log (depending on your setup there may be several files matching this pattern) -- this is the poller. If you suspect a…

with UDT: a) I have deployed a new router and I need to start polling ARP data from it b) I have deployed a new switch and need to start polling the Bridge MAC table from it My perl script reads this information from the CMDB and adds the basic NPM node/interface information, I just need to add a L2 or L3 UDT poller to the…

I have a report that has the SQL that works in it that runs correctly under the reportWriter. I converted that into SWQL and references the SWIS tables in the query (because I want to use the returned values in a program to monitor interfaces) the two queries I pasted in above were copied from the InformationService…

generally... check out Erdos - Online Graphviz Viewer you can convert the output of the stack detail into a dot-language specification like this: digraph stack { n1->n2;n1->n6; n2->n3;n2->n1; n3->n4;n3->n2; n4->n5;n4->n3; n5->n9;n5->n4; n6->n1;n6->n7; n7->n6;n7->n8; n8->n7;n8->n9; n9->n8;n9->n5; } if you pick a circular…

the other use case that I have is routers running multiple VRFs -- the SNMP communicty is prefixed by the vrf to poll the VRF-specific variables (like the routing tables, arp table) it's been over four years since this was requested...

it will die if it cannot write to the database

the Trap receiver ought to be matching all of the configured IP on a host and setting the NODEid correctly. if not -> report a BUG for the problem you have: solarwinds need to have a monitored object to alert on. an alert is: Object + DEFINTION + conditions -- if you do not have one of these three things no alert can/will…

in my case UDT appears to have stabilized and is working well. Not the auto dependency builder is running out of member and crashing.. next thing to fix Richard

9 minutes 57.26 seconds.

Has the awesome plus that when the Auditor cometh I tell them that HR takes care of ensuring access rights are revoked on separation and they go pester them for artifacts

Kay, I manage a moderate sized network of 4000+ switches, 5000+ wireless APs, and 500+ routers. The standard MIB for the systemDate is is hrSystemDate; I've looked through the HP mib and there's nothing obvious I can see that is custom there. I'd ask HP to support the standard Host Resource MIB since that also reports many…

yep, giving up on it as hopelessly broken

You can't see my case. but the gist of this is this... I have a core router with a scant 34 managed physical interfaces at speeds from 1 to 40Gbps but the topology generator thinks it has over 1455 connections to random nodes on the network... not good.

comment on autoselect: this works fairly well in a single vendor environment, but I have switches from six different vendors and each need slightly different selection criteria, so we do multiple discoveries. e.g. Juniper switches: virtual, access or unknown port; HP - physical, access ports.

Try and do a manual poll, rediscover, or list resources of nodes located on the remote poller. some versions (10.4, 10.5 I think) make use of MSMQ to do the communications between the App server and the poller. MSMQ broke = you get an error about not being able to force a poll. note, regular polling and rediscovery work…

Aside: if you have the Engineers toolkit then you can (could) change the format of the traps being sent.

When an alert condition no longer holds, the alert record is removed from AlertStatus. Once the condition that is causing alert(s) for a given device has been cleared, the alert (or all the alerts) will be removed/deleted from the AlertStatus table. Acknowledged and unacknowledged alerts are removed alike.
