You would start with Creating a Custom View then adding the Top XX Volumes by Disk Space Used resource to that view. You can then add a link to that view by Customizing Web Console Menu Bars I like to filter out the memory volumes from the Top XX Volumes by Disk Space Used resource so that I'm only looking at fixed disks…

The Oracle Client installer available through the customer portal is not a traditional installer. The command prompt windows you notices are all that is visible. This is normal behavior and should be all that is required to use the Oracle User Experience Monitor or the Oracle Database template. If it does not, I recommend…

apap​, the fix included in HF1 has resolved the issue for many, but there are still others where this fix has not resolved the issue entirely. We are investigating the cause of this now internally under case CORE-9560.

SEUM was designed to monitor internal web applications and websites from inside your firewall and/or externally (from the outside looking in) and even inside looking out (external hosting/SaaS). In either case this monitoring can be from multiple locations (internal or external). In fact, it's exactly what you're looking…

In this scenario you would be replacing the hostname with the fully qualified domain name of your server since hostname resolution does not appear to be working properly in your environment. E.G. the DNS search domain is not configured, the Orion server is in a different domain, etc.

Basic Availability Groups (BAG) are sufficient for Orion's needs. If you have more than one database, such as in the case of NTA or Log Analyzer, you will need to create multiple availability groups since each BAG only supports a single database.

Since this is the only reported case of this occurring I'm going to assume it's environmental. From the Orion Server are you able to access the following URL? http://thwackfeeds.solarwinds.com/productfeeds/contentlibrary.aspx

What version of the installer are you using? You can check this by right-clicking on the installer itself, selecting 'Properties' and clicking on the 'Details' tab.

Here's the status of the custom MIB poller. As you can see the status clearly is not "ok"

Very similar to the Windows Performance Monitor, the average in SAM is a calculated value and not stored in the database. It's calculated on the fly for those chart resources. You could certainly create a custom SQL alert in the Advanced Alert Manager to perform the same function based on the parameters you've specified.

There is only one event log. There is not a separate applications event log. NetPerfmon is simply the name of the Orion event log. You can go to [Home - Events] or [Home - Message Center] to see all events in the Orion event log. If you're referring to the last XX Application Events resource, this is simply a filtered view…

I'm anxious to hear what kind of response you get back from either the Thwack community or Solarwinds themselves. I'd like to do something similar with my alerts, but before I go and break something that's currently working I would like to know if this is suppose to work. Honestly I don't see any reason why it shouldn't,…

Script monitors do not return a response time value. The "Response Time" field appears under the "Components" resource (shown below) because this resource is generic to all applications. Those that contain User Experience Monitors, and those that do not.

No significant changes were made in the SAM 6.0 release that would allow for wildcard matching of the event log source. I recommend in the interim, if you require this functionality that you look at possibly using the Log Forwarder for Windows, available for download through the Customer Portal.

It's not that I don't believe you, but if you can post a screenshot I'd like to see what your looking at and compare it to my own asynchronous interfaces.

It's very common for the spt_values index to become heavily fragmented. Because this index is relatively small it may not significantly impact performance but it's still recommended to rebuild the index as part of your regular maintenance plan.

This is a question probably better suited for the Orion SDK​ forum.

FoE is designed to protect from application, network, OS, and hardware failures. Unfortunately as jezmarsh‌ stated above, that does not include zero downtime upgrades. At least not at this time.

The application of Performance Counters isn't database specific, though they can under unusual circumstances break only for certain databases or instances. The resolution is to repair the counters as a whole, which again is not specific to any given database.

Have you applied hotfix 6?

The SQL Server 2005-2008 Performance (SQL) is one of our most popular templates and is used by thousands of customers to monitor both named and default SQL server instances. To specify a named instance simple enter the name of that instance in the "SQL Server Instance" Field as pictured below. You will need to do this for…

That is a canned out-of-the-box report included with SAM 6.0. It leverages the new web based Report Writer that's also new in SAM 6.0. So you won't find it in the legacy Win32 base Report Writer.

The highlighted item in the screenshot below is the HotFix Bundle which includes NPM 12.3 HF1 and the Core Platform HF3. I concur that it's somewhat confusing as the Orion Platform hotfix number is not stated in the description. To see the full details of what's included in the Hotfix bundle, you will have to click on the…

Closest one I could find was the one below, though I don't think it's quite exactly what you're looking for. http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3268

Yes, this would be exactly what we're looking for. Is this just a snip of the MIB walk or the entire walk from the device? I ask only because there's no information from the Dell MIB in this MIB walk. Dell's MIB starts at OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.

Yes, it's possible as the issue addressed in Hotfix 3 is specific to SWIS and that's how DPA and Orion communicate with each other when integrated.
