Can you elaborate on what it is you're trying to achieve? I'm afraid as written it's a bit too vague and sounds almost like you're asking how to add a list of nodes into Orion to be monitored by NPM/SAM. Is that correct? 

What type of log files are you talking about? Do you mean the Windows EventViewer logs?

Open a case with support and reply to the automated email that's generated when the case is opened with the MIB file attached requesting that it be added to the MIB database. A new/updated MIB database is compiled and released every Friday for download from your customer portal.

The HTTP/S User Experience Monitors in SAM 5.2 and greater support the macros ${IP}, ${PORT}, ${Node.SysName}, ${Node.Caption}, ${Node.DNS} and ${Node.ID}.

The SAM Additional Poller Components are included in the Additional Poller download available in your customer portal. it's one large zip archive and inside is the SAM Additional Components you're looking for.

nProbe can be used to send flow data from those devices to NTA.

jmansukh, what applications are you trying to monitor that utilize SOAP?

Can you provide a screenshot or what you're seeing and additional details? I'm afraid I'm not sure exactly what you are referring to by "OS watchers".

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that information URL/IRI/Host Header information is not contained in the NetFlow data stream. Therefore it would be impossible for NTA to report upon it.

Have you opened a case with support?

SAM does not provide any native ability to query a mailbox in search of an email from a specific email account, message subject line, or content within the message body and then alert or perform some action based upon that. That does not however mean it's not possible to leverage SAM's Windows Script Monitor, PowerShell…

This error is returned when the site being monitored does not support SSLv3 or TLS v1.0. It's likely the site has been configured to allow only TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2 exclusively. Neither of which are versions that SAM's SSL Certificate Expiration Date Monitor supports today. This is however a feature enhancement we are…

Are you monitoring the server where that share exists? Is it a Windows server or a NAS? SAM's file and folder monitors utilize WMI so the server that is sharing the files must be a managed Windows node in Orion. It is not possible to monitor a share remotely from a server that simply has this as a mapped drive.

How is the node managed in Orion? Is this an SNMP or WMI managed node? Are you experiencing issues polling the node via WMI?

Getting ForeFront Monitored with SAM or any product for that matter including SCOM is not as simple as it may seem. Below are some instructions that might help. Allowing ForeFront to be monitored by SAM 1. Edit the registry to match the tree below to define the ports that WMI uses for the server. In this case 3800-3999. 2.…

You can select "Thread Count" for the process tied to that service using the Component Monitor Wizard located under [Settings - SAM Settings] as pictured below

It's just a guess, but this looks like an issue collecting domain group members from Active Directory for Orion authentication. I've scoured previous cases, KB articles, and Thwack, and have been unable to find any previous reported cases that are even somewhat related to the symptoms you describe. My recommendation would…

Dell systems use https://api.dell.com. HP and IBM have dynamic URLs that redirect based on geographic location and load. My recommendation would be to allow the Orion server to access *.hp.com and *.ibm.com.

I would recommend creating a Group object that contains only the minimum elements/components/etc. required for Active Directory availability. The Groups status will then be calculated only on the objects that are contained therein. You can then add this object to a Network Atlas Map, or add the Groups resource to a Summary…

The new Alert Details view included in SAM 6.2 makes identifying the the alert triggering this notification a simple and straightforward affair. If you are unable to track down the alert that is firing then I would recommend upgrading to SAM 6.2 to make this process much easier.

Have you tried using the following application templates to gather these metrics? * AIX * Unix CPU Monitoring Perl * Unix Disk Monitoring Perl * Unix Memory Monitoring Perl

Email alert actions are available through the Advanced Alert Manager that can be found on the Orion server itself under [Start > Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Alerting, Reporting, and Mapping > Advanced Alert Manager] The Video below should help you get started with the Advanced Alert Manager. Video Tutorial: Orion…

The default out-of-the-box alert "Alert me when a component goes down" should notify you when this condition occurs. All you should need to do is configure the SMTP server and email address, or any other trigger condition you'd like in the alert.

I'm not able to reproduce the error you're seeing, but from what I'm able to discern from the error is that the linkage between the statistic data and the time stamp when it was collected has not been defined. This should be automatic, but for some reason it doesn't appear to be in your installation. This could be a…

This was implemented in APM 4.2.

I'll let the members of the Thwack community chime in with their recommendations of what works best for them in their environment. I'll try and field the technical how/to. I've run into some issues such as WMI not returning useful data during an outage and Windows services getting hung but still running so don't get any…

The following macros are available for the "APM: Application" property type to display component statuses related to the application within an email or other notification method chosen in the trigger condition tab of the alert. .

The screenshot doesn't provide context for where you are in the product when viewing this message, but I'll assume this is on the application details view. This is an AppInsight for Exchange resource, so it should appear on the AppInsight for Exchange Database Details view, along with other information regarding the…

We are looking into creating application templates for monitoring XenApp v7.x. We're tracking this internally under FB333612. I have seen a couple users create their own XenApp 7.x templates based on our existing XenApp 6.x templates. They should provide a good starting point.

Custom SQL Reports are sorted based on the query using the "ORDER BY" function. These custom SQL reports can not be re-ordered through the web interface in the same manner non-custom SQL reports can.
