  • Sweet! How do we design HA and DR solutions for Virtual and Storage module implementation? It would be nice if it's a module rather than appliance. Also the administration become convoluted with more systems to manage. Anything on the roadmap?
  • I do not own SAM but I have had all my issues in the recent past where the service was running but one of the poller receiver status was down. I have since migrated to SQL DB and have my fingers crossed that the issue does not reoccur but there is quite a possibility to find that. Also I was looking at the alert you…
  • This looks great! Was wondering when can we have alerts to identify a Netflow Receiver itself is down? There is no event generated or an OOB alert in the scenario where a poller is working fine but just the netflow receiver status is down.

  • It has been 7 years and looks like it is still not in place. We are planning to enable tons of alerts and integrate it with third party systems. It is annoying that I cannot create a single template and apply it on all. The variable (For ex: IP) is different for hardware, generic node, etc. Will I have to find what the…
  • More than 2 years since this was requested and I am hoping Solarwinds will soon have this as a feature. The way new devices are being introduced and how 2 OS versions are diverse we will have to be continuously using UnDP. It is understandable that it is difficult for Solarwinds to keep up with it and add them to be…
  • This is when an end point is not sending Netflow device. My question is that if you have multiple pollers and one of them is not accepting Netflow data due to any problem (Netflow service down, etc) then how do we get alerted on it?
  • Still no update? 2 devices configured with the same NTP has their timestap for data as current and UTC. How does it get decided? All my pollers, DB and web server in same time zone. Still this discrepancy. Ingesting in Splunk is now a mess and management is having second thoughts on the tool
  • What would be the process in a scenario with multiple pollers and additional web server? We have load distributed across multiple pollers with many elements on each of them. Just want to understand the flow in a scenario from a perspective of the ordering, additional evaluation software to be obtained other that HA engine.…
  • Isn't SRM, DPA and WPM still a seperate license to be purchased? I dont think HCO includes it.
  • What you see is by design and let me explain why you do not see volume alerts? Basically: The widget of "All Alerts this Object can trigger" applies to alerts that are created at node level. When you have to create an alert for volume you select the drop down and select the Volume object. This is why the widget which is…
  • You should check the swdebugmaintenance.log file for more details on why you are getting the error related to plugin maintenance. Scroll to the bottom of the page and search for the word ERROR or logmaintenanceplugin and you should be able to find the reason. There is not much info available on thwack or the solarwinds…
  • Looking for something similar on Checkpoint. We have been experiencing an issue with a couple remote sites where they lose their OSPF routing table. I want to get notified if the number of routes in the table changes.. The existing OOB alerts may cause noise because the routing peer would stay up. Anyone tested it on…
  • This is very helpful. How can we get details on the action which executes external program? For email I see the recipient and other detauls which are very helpful but for program or netperfmon action I dont see additional details. I have a external bat file command line which updates our splunk with the alert. but I only…
  • I think you are good here. I know its a little convoluted because the confusion lies when you throw in UDT ports or IP Subnets/IPs in the mix. But this is what I have obtained from Solarwinds. By default IPAM and UDT and other modules which do not have node as target are sort of deemed X(unlimited) licenses. Also if a…
  • Is there anything to be provided in the "Scripts argument"? Also what do I use for credentials? What needs to be in the argument? I get only 0 returned. Do we update the script to include 98 code as well? Also do we use only one component monitor which will pull it all or create 1 for each that we are subscribed to? if we…
  • Thank you for the replies gents! This was added in that thread long back but even in 11.5 with latest MIB file the device is identified as AGENT ++. Also I understand that The SNMP stack might not be implemented in the best possible way but it does show in UnDP but not on web. Arcsight is our LEM and very crucial for…
  • What I mean by mapped is that why does Solarwinds still show those devices as Agent + instead of arcsight? How can I fix it? I really dont want to manually update the dbo node table as recommended by someone in another Thwack thread. Even if they are string expressions, there is a column table which shows up during the…
  • So if I need to wait for 30 minutes (and I poll every 2 minutes), current response time is out of question since it only stores last polled value and is meaningless for my alerting. Using Average is not the best because it can always bring down the consistently high value. Also in my screenshot above I see 2 Average…
  • Hi Wes, I might have confused you by saying report writer but I meant that I used the web report writer front end with the choice of SWQL and it failed. When I pasted in SWQL studio it worked... Hope you get some time to review this. Not sure if others are able to see all 4 categories: Unmanaged Nodes Unmanaged Interfaces…
  • What do we do when we have 1000s of sites/locations? This is not sustainable in case there are constant updates in sites/locations (closure and opening of new ones).
  • I see some documented steps in other threads but it did not work for me. Not sure if the conclusion is that it works with the documented steps or its an assumed bug and IOS upgrade resolves the issue. Feedback is appreciated!
  • First of all - thanks for the reply aLTeReG0. I did try the table first, and it had issues pulling that information. Also on more reading I found that the row name and its value are 2 tables so it is difficult to pull it and display as a list/table. Picking the table id shows as "OID not supported" and that is why I had to…
  • So as long as my wait time is less than 10 last polls, I can use current response time? Which from the below should I be using if I am polling Also confused between: It is a critical alert and I dont want to answer my management on why the alert did not trigger when needed. Your help will be appreciated. Thanks
  • Thanks Wes! The query works in SWQL studio but not in Web report writer. it says query is invalid. What could be causing that? Also is there a way to also add a column which shows the entity type whether it is a node or interface that is unmanaged/muted? And a condition to use custom properties table? This will really be…
  • Any progress/word on this yet? I am in a similar situation and need just a single sum value to capture checkpoint concurrent VPN users. So far no luck...
  • What I mean is that I used the web based report Creator and picked the Swql option but it failed. I hardly use the standolne report writer because it is going to be deprecated.
  • Same here! used the last query here, removed 2 Application sections, added Order by at the end and used without Search option. I only see Unmanaged nodes in Custom query as well as SWQL studios. I am on 12.4 2018.4 HF2
  • Any new progress on this? The device still comes up as Agent++ and is unable to pull machinetype, CPU, memory, Interface and Disk alongwith other monitors. The UnDP does not seem to work as its a table that contains the information. It is very hectic to take each OID from the table since it varies between 2 models. Why…
  • I am having exactly the same problem. I have picked the right label column and assigned it but on the web display it still shows both columns with only Values. On the web dashboards when I edit the resource, I dont see an option to pick the right label column. This is annoying. Amyone has a solution for this? The MIB I am…
