  • If you past directly the URL in the your browser it will not work. The idea is to let the Alerting Engine swap the variable by a real Node ID and then retrieve the page for you before to wrap it in an email. Emailing a Web Page Advanced Alerts Variables

  • Hi, I further detailed the info already provided here: So basically how can I instruct SW to backup and then truncate the syslog and trapvarbind tables after 1Gb is reached or let's say every 30 days? You could schedule a T-SQL script to run on a regular basis and perform the above steps if Table size is above 1GB. Same…

    in About Orion NPM Web console Comment by Yann February 2009
  • I kept browsing the big internet and found a perl script on the cacti forum which returns the number of ip addresses belonging to a specific pool by analyzing the dhcpd.leases file. You will have to modify it to fit it in a Linux/Unix Script monitor component in APM but that should help you to start writing a script if you…
    in Monitoring DHCP Server Comment by Yann November 2008
  • Hi, Are you getting the exact same error? Which version of Orion/Modules are you running? I suggest you open a case and do the following: First, turn on additional website logging for the diagnostics: Go to: C:\Inetpub\SolarWinds and open the web.config file with notepad. Do a search for the word "WARN", you will see it in…
    in Website error... Comment by Yann June 2009
  • Rob, Actually as you are in a windows environmnent this would make more sense to use the Windows Script Monitor in APM. Linux Script Monitors run on the target machine. Windows Script Monitors run on the Orion Server. The aim is to use APM to run periodically the script to fetch data using the TL1 toolkit. The first step…

  • I have NCM 5.5 installed here and it does not list it. Is it correct for all the other programs beside this issue?
    in how to tell which version module is running? Comment by Yann July 2009
  •  You will have to wait the Service Pack 2, the issue is fixed in that one. I will notify you with through the case I have with you once SP2 will be released.
    in Orion 9.1 - Nodes Web Managment, Unmanage Node Dialog Comment by Yann November 2008
  • Hi btp, I reviewed the stats gathered for this interface but I cannot find any entry that would explain the issue. Do you have the issue on one or multiple interfaces? Is the issue always there or is it only from time to time you see a Petabps value for the current utilization? You can run the "Current Percent Utilization…

  •  The Orion website needs IIS to run in 32bits mode, the .Net Frameworks installed must be the 32 bits versions as well. You might get an error during the configuration wizard while installing the webconsole: "Failure Updating Script Maps - The error indicates that IIS is in 64 bit mode, while this application is a 32 bit…
    in Moving Orion to New 64bit Server Comment by Yann November 2008
  •  qorenetworks opened a case with us so I tested it and I had the same issue on an Orion v9.0 web console. I then tested it on Orion v9.1 and it is working like a charm. A lot of improvements have been made to the webconsole. I advise you to upgrade to that version to solve the issue. Here are the release notes:…

  • Hi bighard, Cisco implemented a MIB to monitor NTP related informations: CISCO-NTP-MIB : 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.168 . It should allow you to monitor the offset in seconds between the local clock and a NTP server source clock by polling the cntpPeersOffset OID . here is the description of that OID: "The estimated offset of the…

  •  Spiky, You can check which MIB are supported on your IOS/CatOS version there: http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/MIBS/servlet/index The Cisco-NTPMIB is already in the latest Orion MIB Database. You can always update it by downloading it from your customer portal. Concerning the alert, the conditions you will need to use for a…
    in Check that the Clock of a switch match's NTP source? Comment by Yann October 2008
  • I suggest you to open a case to be notified when the MIB DB becomes again available since the file seems to be corrupted or at least not updated... The new MIB db should have the MIB you submitted in June except if there was an error during the compilation. To Open a Ticket: http://www.solarwinds.com/support/ticket If I…
    in Updated MIB file Comment by Yann July 2009
  • Have you NTA installed or was it previously installed? Some legacy files might still be there and could cause the issue. Anyway you should try the following: * Stop the WebSite . Start > run > inetmgr + ok. Right-click on the SolarWinds NetPerMon website and click on stop. * Empty the \Inetpub\Solarwinds\Orion folder *…

  • Hi, Is it the "freeMem" in first attachment and the "icmpOutMsgs" in second attachment? Yes, exactly. OID is equal to 1.3.6.1.4.X.X.X I do not use the OID itself when I need to configure a custom Poller alert, I simply use the UnDP's name. Here is how I would configure it for the icmpOutMsgs:

You can access a such view through the top link: Application Performance Monitor Then Click on the Template Name and finally on the Component Name.

  • After checking all the event resources, I could not find a filter option either. I proposed this solution because I helped a customer 1-2 months ago with the exact same issue and we used this filter...but as a matter of fact I cannot find anymore the resource. He was running 9.1 SP5. I am going to contact him so that we…

  • You can try to remove it and add the Last XX Events resource. This one should have the edit option.

  • It embeds that Orion login page ion the body of the email rather than actually logging in for me and sending me the component details page I noticed the same behaviour and therefore use a workaround which involves passing the credentials through the URL: &AccountID=USER&Password=PWD e.g. :…
