Solarwinds support so far says the following: * "${InterfaceLastChange} is a polled value and relies on some other items so it is not usable in this case." * The macro I am using, ${InterfaceLastChange} or ${N=SwisEntity;M=LastChange} is "confusing and it is really not needed (as there is a time stamp for every event on…

Thank you!

NPM could poll for the ARP data, and might be fairly efficient at it, but the pollers would have to cope with possibly large volumes of data. Via Layer 3 topology? We're already polling for that (probably unwisely) and not getting full tables. On a switch with 20+ "up" ports, "NPM Network Topology" table only shows 10…

Which one, "Cooked"? So ${N=SwisEntity;M=VolumePercentUsed} would turn into ${N=SwisEntity;M=Cooked(VolumePercentUsed)}? That didn't work, regretfully, doesn't resolve. Did find an old thread, Re: Advanced Alerting: jbaulsir wrote: Try this: Alert: ${FullName} is ${SQL:Select Round ('${VolumePercentUsed}',0) from Volumes…

It is normal, you will see the alert but all actions will not be executed (sending emails etc..). I don't think this is normal Lada - no alerts of any kinds should be executed on unmanaged nodes - and I did get email alerts, too.
-
This is the last time that alert was triggered. Thank you aLTeReGo. May I suggest changing the language, perhaps to "last triggered"? Alerts can get triggered on a multitude of conditions, such as "high CPU utilization". Not all of them are errors; so "last error" seems misleading.
-
Option 2 above does work - with a caveat I mentioned (a Solarwinds bug - or poor design choice). Option 1 can work yet is also fantastically buggy to a point of not being worth it.

Thank you. Was hoping for a dynamic Orion widget like "nodes not up". I should be able to translate the above into an alert though, probably? ("If an object failed to be polled in the last poll attempt, alert me".)

Recommendation is to use the Custom Property Manager to create a Custom Property at the Node level and assign values to that Custom Property in order to group the nodes by Custom Property value instead of by Node Group. Custom properties - OK. So I have to create a new custom property and then manually edit batch-add it to…

Also: will DPA disappear from "product specific settings" once SAM is updated?
-
We received the notification too. But, we do have DPA, but the version installed is the newest version. I figured it was something to do with the hotfix that's available. Maybe they are 'accidentally' promoting it? You mean, SAM 6.2.4 includes it? Is there documentation on how to configure the freebie, specifically? I…

aLTeReGo is this still correct? It does indeed resolve the issue in my case - yet it looks like 445 is mainly for SMB and thus significantly increases the attack surface of a host. If you were to tighten the security of this firewall exception, how would you go about it w/o hardwiring it to specific IPs? (E.g. limit to…

...an action to remove the offending file please, "nets shall not be shot till after notice by inspector".

All these bash scripts look for (and test) file attributes like file age, e.g. "modified" timestamp? timestamps don't matter and can be old, new, or in the future. The only thing that matters is that there is a file that's been hanging in a particular folder longer than NN minutes. Am I correct that this solution will…
-
Not monitoring specific files. The only thing that is certain is a folder. Need to monitor if any file is sitting longer than NN minutes in that folder - so by definition, a filename is unknown. (Was this not clear in my original post? Not trying to be snarky - only checking if my post was not clear - after all, English is…

Wouldn't you want to add a SAM application monitor for event log monitoring and then just alert based on that SAM monitor? Seems kinda backwards to try to hardcore that into the alert, harder than it has to be. I agree. But I also think getting at least a hint of what the error is in the email is critical for a good…

yes, component type 42 means "Windows Event Log Monitor", and instead of component status, it makes more sense to trigger on statistic data (which in case of this component stands for number of events matching given criteria): Why (does it make sense to trigger on statistic vs. component down)? Also, what is the advantage…
-
Thanks HolyGuacamole. Which part of my question are you answering? (Looks like I was asking too many and may have confused everyone.)
-
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…

"Unknown", as well.

Awesome, thank you yaquaholic, much appreciate you chiming in. Will do some tests and post results.

Get to the node Manage nodes -> Search for the Node, do a list resources remove/uncheck the existing resources (Hardware Health) from there and hit on submit. "Manage nodes" doesn't allow me to search for hardware resources or sensors. So, what am I searching for, in "manage nodes"? I.e. how do I find out which node it is?…
-
I tried to replicate that behavior and could not do so... Could you open a ticket and ask the support team to have a look? Thanks - wanted to get feedback from other users first. Will submit a support request if the issue becomes too frequent.
-
So... basic alerts work, advanced - don't. What's next? That's normal, due to differences in how basic and advanced alerts work. To quote the excellent response from Solarwinds support: Basic Alerts work a little bit differently - they don't check the database, the check the results of each poll.

Tried Configuration Wizard - Services - Solarwinds Alerting Service. Completed successfully. No cigar.

If it was set incorrectly, it'd affect way more than the time today's stats get reset. Like, timestamps on all events. So it's about 6:18pm and here's today's discards and…
