There are a couple of different ways to monitor the status of a Storage Group in Exchange 2007. The first method is pretty simple but very definitive. Create a new mailbox in each storage group you want to monitor. Then configure a MAPI User Experience Monitor in SAM for each account you created in the previous step This…

Correct. You cannot mix properties within the same alert. I would recommend instead of using "Groups" that you use Custom Properties instead. They will provide the functionality you are looking for.

If you are willing to provide a MIB walk from the device someone from the community may be willing to create an application template for monitoring this device, even if they don't own one. You may also have greater success posting this question to the forum, where someone may be currently using the Universal Device Poller…

You will need to change the Fetching Method from WMI to RPC as this is a nested folder within the Event Log which are not available via WMI.

Exchange 2016 is supported by AppInsight for Exchange in SAM 6.2.4, currently in Release Candidate.

To monitor SQL clusters using AppInsight for SQL you will need to add the cluster VIP as a node in Orion. When the resources are listed for the Cluster VIP (volumes, interfaces, etc.) select the SQL instances you'd like monitored. More information can be found in at the link below. * Monitoring Clusters with AppInsight for…

I've seen this error occur when there are missing or outdated components on the additional polling engine. E.G. if you own UDT but have not installed the UDT Additional Poller Components on the additional poller, or you have an older/outdated version of an additional poller component installed on the Additional Poller.…

Absolutely. Have you tried using the Custom Object resource, the Multiple Object Chart resource, the Custom Chart resource, or the Custom Table resource?

You may be encountering a known issue that has already been resolved, but requires you to delete the alert and re-run the configuration wizard to repair. This is outlined in the following KB article. SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Incorrect data is appearing in a hardware alert email.

The VSS Writer is a Windows Service. If this service was stopped for some reason the component would go into a "Down" state" The recommended remediation action would be to restart the service. If it was in a "Warning" or "Critical" state, that would be because it exceeded 80-90% CPU or memory utilization. This could be…

This would be a function of SolarWinds Storage Manager.

The monitor depicted in the image above is a simple TCP port check that could be mimicked by telneting to an open port "telnet some.server.com 25" for example would duplicate this monitor. It's a very basic check, unlike some of our more sophisticated user experience monitors. The high latency may be occurring due to a…

NPM 12.5 includes support node thresholds affecting the status of the node, allow you to alert on a node going into a warning or critical state. For more information, see the following post. Orion Platform 2019.2 - Enhanced Node Status

quote:Originally posted by guyti • Advanced alerts are not consistent; they will work for a short period of time and then stop with no rhyme or reason. It does appear to be better after maintenance and a backup is performed, but this is not consistent. I am a HUGE SolarWinds fan but Advanced Alerting Engine is a total…

Active Agents must be redirected to the DR Orion instance by one of the following methods * Redeploy the agents from the DR Orion instance * Update the existing installed agents to point to the DR instance manually via the Windows Control Panel. * Use the Active Directory Group Policy Administrative Template to update the…

This is currently not possible through the custom chart view but this can be done in the Report Writer. Below is a very simple example.

You can add the macro ${WindowsEventMessages} to your "Component' alerts. if the macro isn't applicable to the component that is alerted on then the macro will not appear in the message text. When/if the alert triggered is for a Windows Event Log Monitor the macro will populate properly and contain the full text of the…

UDT does not currently support filters like SELECT NodeID, PortID, PortIndex, Name, OperationalStatus, AdministrativeStatus, MACAddress, IgnorePortRules FROM Orion.UDT.Port p where portid = ${N=SwisEntity;M=PortID} or SELECT NodeID, PortID, PortIndex, Name, OperationalStatus, AdministrativeStatus, MACAddress,…

This is a known issue related to time zones that we're tracking internally under CORE-802 and CORE-282.

What is it about SQL Reporting Services that you're trying to monitor?

This was implemented in APM 4.0.2 as Dynamic Groups and Dependencies. 

You should be able to grab the left edge and drag it open.

What you describe is not possible based on the last value, only the average. This is because each node status check is done once every 2 minutes whereby a single ICMP packet is sent. The result of that single ICMP packet can only be 0% or 100% denoting success or failure receiving a response. Percentages other than 0% or…

It sounds like the metrics you're trying to monitor are specific to a given application running on the WebLogic server. Have you tried using the JMX Component Monitor Wizard located under [Settings -> SAM Settings -> Component Monitor Wizard]?

Absolutely! I use it all the time myself.

I think what you're looking for is a feature similar to Cacti's graph zoom. An example can be found here. This is something I've been looking for too.

I've used dozens of different products over the years and credential management has always a bear. This is especially true when dealing with multiple domains that have no trust relationships between them. I do have some tips that might help ease the burden of maintaining your assigned credentials. You can leverage node…

Looks like you may have Windows Integrated Authentication enabled on your IIS site, or you've modified the permissions to the SolarWinds website on the file system. I recommend going into IIS, delete the website and the AppPool. Next, delete the website entirely from the file system 'C:\inetpub\solarwinds' is the default…

You would need to do this using a Script monitor, as they allow the user full control over determining status that is reflected in the Orion web console. The following Feature Request might also be relevant to what you are trying to accomplish. * Monitor Processes Regardless of Status

Expand the table called dbo.CustomPollerStatus Expand Indexes Delete PK_CustomPollerStatus (highlight - right click - delete) and rerun the configuration wizard.
