Jaroslaw, there are some instructions on how to do this in the Network Atlas documentation. Here is a link to the topic: Customizing Orion Web Console Tooltips

This only exists in APM 2.5. I suspect you have APM 2.0. If you have APM 2.5, look for C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Orion\APM\APMServiceControl.exe. The ${componentID} portion has to be that of a Service monitor. The predefined alert is named "Restart a service." It's at the the very end of the list when you go to configure…

Yes, Garetjax67, I'm sorry we did not include the Powershell version requirement in the documentation or the component description. We will remedy that in our next update.

I'm just guessing at your needs here: Would it be useful to have one master template, but to thencreate separate applications for each of your customers? Template: Service1, Script1, Script2 Customer X Application: Inherit Template Customer Y Application: Inherit Template

As far as I know, just whatever permissions are necessary to access the table you want to query. Are you getting the error: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist ? Certain tables may only be viewable by the database administrator, for example: v$session, v$sql.

Here's another solution: "> For what it's worth, I found these previous posts by searching for administrator rights in Application Performance Monitor. If you searched using different criteria, please shoot me a quick note with what you used, so that I can consider adding it to the documentation index.

Here's a possible solution from another customer: ">

Almost. A Linux Script monitor reads three things: * an exit code (used by Orion APM as the component status) * a message string (used by Orion APM as an informational message) * a statistic string (used by Orion APM as the statistic). So, if you had a script that monitored a process and you wanted to tell APM that it was…

Here's a previous thread where some folks were discussing the same thing. I'm including it because there's some discussion of how you have to name the graphics files so that network atlas recognizes which icon to associate with different statuses.

You can assign HTTP component monitors to nodes that have no relation to component monitor. Piggy back the component monitors onto a node that you know should never go down. "...you can create an assigned application monitor containing component monitors that check whether several external web servers are reachable. The…

Hi, Brent. As you've correctly surmised, the SNMP Vendor information is blank for ICMP nodes, and thus they are classifed as 'unknown'. There's no way around this at the moment. Even if you were to directly edit your node database, any vendor information you manually changed would get wiped the next time your ICMP node got…

Are you sure that's a valid class? Google search doesn't reveal any information about that class. I think you want RemoteQueueLength from Win32_PerfFormattedData_SMTPSVC_SMTPServer http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394287(VS.85).aspx Also, if you are using orion APM 3.0, consider creating a Performance Counter…

Hi, Darkshooter. Elapsed hours since the file modification date. Click either the question mark icon or the more information link in the component description to see all the information about a monitor type. Excerpt from File Age Monitor : File Age Monitor This component monitor determines when a file was last modified.…

Hi, stevel. I see what you're trying to do. Unfortunately, the search string field in the HTTP monitor can't take a wildcard. I'll add a feature request to either allow a wildcard or to take a regular expression.

Hmmm. Is it possible there is an HTTP redirect involved? I would set the Follow Redirect option in the component monitor and try the monitor again. Also, make sure you did not accidentally set the Fail if Found option. If none of that works, I'd suggest opening a support ticket, because it sounds as if you're doing…

If you want the background to update automatically, you have to create a linked background. There is a limitation that a linked background can only be added by URL. You cannot use a local file as a linked background. Is it possible for you to save your .png to a web site instead so that you can create a…

Correct. The Orion APM statistic value is a numeric value. % disk space remaining, # of messages in the Exchange mail queue, that sort of thing. If it's system inventory that you're after, Orion APM isn't the tool for that job. You said you're just starting to discover what you can accomplish through WMI. You may find it…

Nope, the gauges are hard-coded that way, and you cannot reverse the colors. I shall add this as a feature request.

For APM 2.5? Yes. In APM 3.1, we changed how we measure response time for the MAPI User Experience monitor to remove Orion APM processing time from the equation. Orion APM 3.1 New Features

If you install Orion APM on a 2008 server, you may find the lsass.exe process pegging the CPU at 100% depending on how many WMI-based Orion APM monitors you have added. There's no established limit for how many APM monitors you can run on 2008 before hitting that Windows bug, so we advise everyone to consider using 2008 R2…

There are available online, from the SolarWinds website. http://www.solarwinds.com/support/apm/docs/ReleaseNotes/releaseNotes.htm

You could probably use the windows event log template to check the Security log of the AD server for lockout related events: * Event ID 539 : Logon Failure: Account locked out * Event ID 644 : User account Locked out (I got these event IDs from http://www.windowsnetworking.com/nt/atips/atips155.shtml)

Good question, btw. I'll add this to the docs.

Hi, Byron. If a device/computer has more than one IP address, you could add each IP as a separate node, but that would mess up your views/reports/top xx resources because of the duplicate data collected from the same system. So don't do that. :-) Instead, pick one IP address as a 'primary' and add that as a regular Orion…

Use the File Count monitor. It counts file in a folder and subfolders. The help has a full list of APM component monitor types that can give you a feel for what else is possible with the software. http://www.solarwinds.com/netperfmon/SolarWinds/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=OrionAPMPHComponentTypesFileCount.htm…

The Apache monitor is for all Linux/Unix operating systems. It gets information from the built-in Apache status page (/server-status )and interprets the results. But the Apache web server won't publish the page unless you configure it as shown in the documentation.…

 Hi, borgan. You haven't missed a thing. That's a bug in the ipMonitor Admin Guide, and I've marked it as something for us to correct in the next version. You can view the state of monitors by: * Clicking the name of any device listed on the Devices tab, or in any web resource on the Dashboard tab. * Expanding the monitor…

You can choose to manage the Orion NPM credentials for each user, or you can allow your users to manage their own Orion NPM credentials. 1. In Manage Users > Edit User, change Who should manage Orion credentials to User. 2. Check User is permitted to see data from this Orion server for at least one Orion NPM server. 3.…

Hello I use APM 2.5 with NPM 9.5 SP3, Application monitor show me that 95% free memory is threshold? (see attachment) Oleg, the screenshot you have posted is not data from an Orion APM application monitor. That is the Orion NPM CPU Load & Memory Statistics Resource. It shows realtime Orion NPM Node performance data. This…

Hi, Dave. Convert your alert to a APM-Component alert type so that you can use the ${StatusOrErrorDescription} variable to insert the component status string into your alert email. This variable isn't available with APM-Application type.
