The "Has Changed" condition can only be used with Last Boot, IOS Image Family, and IOS version. That is the reason why your alert is not triggering properly. 

Most users leverage NET-SNMP for AIX rather than IBM's proprietary SNMP daemon. That is because IBM's SNMP implementation does not conform in many instances to the SNMP standard. This simply means that there are some features like Process monitoring via SNMP that simply aren't available when using IBM's SNMP daemon. The…

Yes, as of SAM 6.9, Azure SQL DB is supported as the database for SAM.

Did you install the normal agent or did you install the agent package designed for gold master images and then follow the steps outlined here -> SolarWinds Online Help

Printer monitoring is something we hope to add as part of APM in a future release. See the following blog posting for more information.

You can do this for database files based on size, but not as a percentage as you have shown in the Multiple Object Charts seen above.

What kind of Java Applet are you trying to monitor? Is this something that normally runs within your browser? What is it about this java applet you'd like to monitor?

Either of the following templates should include what you're looking for. Symantec Endpoint Protection Client 12.1.x Updates – This component returns the number of days that have passed since antivirus definitions have been updated. Symantec Endpoint Protection Client Days passed from last SEP client update This monitor…

BUMP! Sorry, still waiting... impatiently

Application monitoring is not what I had in mind. AppMon management pack monitors processes on a Windows or *nix box. It's more of a process watching program then network service monitoring. For instance Application monitor can watch the "inetinfo.exe" (IIS Process) on a windows machine. What I am looking for is something…

This might be a long shot but have you tried exploring what's available through the VMWare API using the Find Processes, Services and Performance Counters under APM settings? Are you aware of any other method this information is exposed other than through the view administrator? 

We feel your pain and sympathize. That is why this is something we're actively working to improve. * Improved Install/Upgrade - Faster, simplified product upgrades and installation of hot fixes, including updating multiple Orion products simultaneously.

Sounds like you have not filled out the message body field for the email alert action.

SAM has no reliance upon Peer Name Resolution Protocol. PNRP is specific exclusively to IPv6 networks, so if you're running IPv4 then this service is very unlikely related to your issue. without digging into the debug logs of your Orion server it's difficult to say with any degree of certainty what exactly the issue is. I…

Yes, you can disable grouping As well as add additional columns of data to the grid

The Agent should not require a reboot unless one of its key dependencies are updated. Note however that if the Agent is upgraded on a machine where Windows Updates have been applied, but the machine hasn't yet been rebooted, this may cause the Agent to not function properly until the machine has been rebooted. If necessary…

Out of curiosity, what version of SAM are you currently running?

This can be done via custom properties using the Orion SDK, but it would need to be scripted. To my knowledge I'm not aware of anyone that has created a script to do this against Active Directory. Out of curiosity, what type of information are you trying to sync from AD into Orion, and are these standard or custom fields…

There is already an out-of-the-box alert which returns NTA's list of top talkers when an interface reaches a set level of utilization. Configure NTA-specific alerts

If it helps, there are also official RabbotMQ templates available at the links below. * RabbitMQ (Linux and Unix) * RabbitMQ (Windows)

Unfortunately the FTP User Experience Monitor functions by validating the existence of and checksum of a file on the remote server. It's not currently possible to simply verify login. The simplest alternative is to use a TCP Port Monitor to monitor the FTP port (port 21 on the remote host to ensure the FTP server is…

The full listing of APM Component Monitor Types is available at the link below. http://www.solarwinds.com/NetPerfMon/SolarWinds/OrionAPMPHComponentTypes.htm Only the Windows Script Component Monitor, PowerShell Component Monitor, Linux/Unix Script Monitor, and Nagios Script Monitors use script. The rest of the component…

Unfortunately that's a fairly generic error you're receiving. I recommend opening a case with support so we can take a look at the diagnostics and see what's going on in the logs.

I recommend posting this question in the where the community Alert Gurus commonly frequent.

If you configure an alert to notify you when the component is in an "Unknown" state you should receive notifications when a Linux/Unix script monitor fails.

Would the ${InPercentUtil} and ${OutPercentUtil} macros be sufficient?

What version of SAM or APM are you currently running?

What is the clustering technology being used? Microsoft's native clustering should allow you to monitor the node using its cluster VIP no differently than the SQL cluster you're currently monitoring. There may be a firewall in place, or you may need to add the Orion server IP address into the SNMP list of allowed hosts for…

It would seem the 99EE296 node has the necessary ServeRAID management software installed and the other does not. As to why the CPU and Memory information is missing from the 99EE296 node I'm not sure exactly. I've seen this occur with IBM systems running older versions of the IBM Director agent software. I would recommend…

The Orion Server template should be applied to the server where NCM is installed.
