I too am looking for an easy way to pull Cisco stack switch inventory information. I am looking for All physical serial numbers from all members within the stack, not just the serial from the master. From what I have read, this is still an issue and the work-arounds are not that great. Has there been any update with this?

We are investigating the idea of using Orion as our CMDB. We are just starting to toss around ideas of what or CMDB will be comprised of. Are any of you using Orion exclusively as your CMDB?

Upgrading to 2025.1.1 fixed the issue for me

Hi Everyone- I'm facing the same issue as most people on this thread. I have the api.extremecloudiq.com node managed in Orion. Credentials are working. But only getting response time and packet loss information. No information from the Access Points. I had a ticket opened with Solarwinds, but they suggested opening a…

If you still are looking for people to give you information on their issues with Groups/Dependencies, please let me know.

Hi AMidnightSoul- I have issues with dropped SMTP email too. I was wondering where you found these settings in your Orion platform. How do I check my registry keys to make sure they are correct? Thanks in advance for your help. bfreking

Here is what I am running: Orion Core 2011.2.1, APM 4.2.0 SP1, NCM 6.1, NPM 10.2.1, NTA 3.8.0, IVIM 1.2.0. My Orion servers are all running 2008 R2, My Orion servers are strong and properly sized, none of them are close to being overworked. I am using IE 8 Browser or Firefox 10.0.1, my OS on my work computer is Windows 7.…

I changed the “Alerting Engine Service” from LOCAL SYSTEM on my Orion server to a username and password to that of a Local Admin. It fixed my SMTP Email problem, no more dropped SMTP emails.

Hi KenHales- I am wondering if you are still facing this trouble? I have a very similar issue and am also receiving: EXCEPTION STACK: --> The message could not be sent to the SMTP server. The transport error code was 0x800ccc14. The server response was not available. I also believe it is a problem within NPM or the NPM…

Still no answer from Solar Winds on the Manage Dependencies isue. I have built roughly 500 dependencies in NPM. Orion support once told me that 500 Dependencies seems to be a lot, I told them I still have another 250 to build. The manage dependencies page is still very slow to load and most of the time refuses to load,…

Your work is TOP NOTCH ! This reports looks even better than what I imagined. Thanks for your help, great job!

Hi ed_gpc- Did you notice any other issues when attempting to manage the new 4300 series? Are you able to get accurate utilization from the interfaces, are config backups working? We are deploying a few of these new 4300's in the future, I would like to know if they can be managed properly. Thanks

I have recently moved to NPM 10.2.2 code in my Orion deployment. I have noticed now when building dependencies and groups, the page loads are much faster. The dependencies/groups pages almost always load, somethimes they take a few seconds, but the overall experience is much better on the new 10.2.2 code. I can't say that…

I have found that if I use a Firefox browser the Manage Dependency page will load, it takes 15-20 seconds to load, but it loads. If I use an IE browser (I still have Windows XP on my work computer, runing IE 7) the Manage Dependency page does not load. I have a ticket open with Solar Winds support, but they have not got…

I changed the “Alerting Engine Service” from running on LOCAL SYSTEM to a username and password to that of a Local Admin. It fixed my SMTP Email problem.

I was able to fix this by going into the alert I built, under "Trigger Actions", under "URL" and where you "Enter or Paste the Web Page URL", i replaced the Orion text and used an Orion Admin account and Orion Admin Password instead, example:…
