‌never tried alert variable macros within the reset or trigger query. Try more sql like SWQL in the the SWQL studio app till you are happy you have it. I often sub <> for = or such to make sure the inverse of the query will work or if I know no rows will return at current.

"mgmt and production interface"meaning adding once by the UCS blade mgmt IP address then again by the OS IP address to get WMI and/or production interface up/down etc. 

Right now just adding/updating local monitoring accounts to non-domain servers with those powershell scripts. Could do just about anything once you import the ActiveDirectory module - I've done strange things such as enumerate AD computer objects and insert the OS and Service Pack into IPAM custom properties. Anything is…

‌you would need that four letter word, xml, which hp oa serves up via http and provides the serial number for each slot used. If you could join this to NPM data via that serial number then you would have location and parent child relationships.

Daniel - I went with the full migration and the install handled migrating our NCM database into Orion just fine - took a long time though. If you have the ability to backup both your DB's and connect lab servers to both your backup DB's you could do a dry run migration just to see how long and any errors you might expect.

I cannot find the view nor table named "NetflowApplicationSummary" anywhere in either the Orion database nor the SWQL API. Can you identify the source of this query and then we might know it's origin?

if you want my old dusty script ping me ;-)

Looks like it but to go fishing lets open database manager - write out the first SQL statement copy paste the 2nd half and execute. Best way to test alert logic for now except copying whole trigger query right from Alertdefinitions table. you might not have any high CPU but lower the threshold till it snags a river monster…

Under trigger query- near top of page- change drop down from node to custom SQL and screenshot- then cancel.

Can you confirm your device template being used (you can confirm using the test button and show connection details on the edit node page. IF your device template does not include the equivalent to terminal length 0 then maybe you are getting paging on your show config command? Do manually typed scripts, simple ones or even…

cobrien I did this same trick back before NPM 11.5 - now with mandatory custom properties and without the ability to set a default value we now need to be able to change the first choice in the list. Currently every node my engineers are adding are getting a default value of Desktop - none of which are. I don't want to…

Disagree 100% - While a multi-select for applications and components would be great -that's really exactly the way templates work. If you base 1500 application monitors off templates and then make changes to the templates will see them ripple down. aLTeReGo correct me if I am mistaken for AppInsight for SQL? And if you…

If you see the entries in the switch mac and arp tables but not in UDT then you are seeing what I was. I installed up to 2.5.1 hotfix 3 and they immediately showed up on the next L2/L3 polling.

An Idea to improve this data -

I had the same issue and instead used the windows powershell script monitor to construct a CURL SOAP replacement. Not sure it will work for your app but it saved my b*tt. ##credential will pass the username but the password will need to be expanded or kept as encrypted object ##add the signiant manager vip IP as an icmp…

Correct - we have a private internal lan for our department - I assume all of the limit by poller id filters will not be affected by this since IPAM is completely separate tables.

Can I ask if the IsServer field is recalculated periodically or only on add? I need to know which schedule to pick

Sounds like you need the application or component alert and include node caption equals (name of your test node) then your email only you alert action I have several test alerts against my test node like this- I do not know how to keep them out of the active alerts views other then quickly acknowledging them. You can also…

Ah the ole bracket trick! Lol

Yes and yes Settings/manage custom properties/add custom property

if you don't mind some sql then use the view containers_alertsandreportsdata to provide you group status root cause for that node ID. I have found the logic that they put into that far easier

Allen, I have taken CSV of ServiceNow data and used the SDK to import and update into Orion. The SDK package includes directions and some examples and I found the PowerShell groups sample the best to build off of. However, if you are using XLSor csv exported from ServiceNow how would you automate the updates? For that we…

Sorry- typed too fast. DNS would be dnsbackward. I don't know if a simple hostname field except possible sysname but that is what the system reports as its name vs DNS. We manually enter a hostname into the alias field but you could easily setup a sql job to pull dnsbackward, remove domain and enter that into the alias…

It's well hidden Go to your inbox, then click on your avatar, then click on your points value and then you should see the old ranking, missions, etc.

My apologies - going back it looks like only UDT has DNS timeout settings. Can you post the ip address history for an offending IP to show what data changed - and are these DHCP addresses?

I think Jon's going down the road of fans, ps, and list of blades is from fabric interconnect snmp but monitoring blades is dependent on OS having SNMP setup.

Sorry but I disagree completely Anyone pull a power supply in your UCS and see if it alarms somewhere in the Solarwinds UCS summary page? I did not and had to build a resource and alarm just for that. Also I found that the active fabric interconnect also responded as the ${nodeid} for the alert so I had to add a SQL…

WHat psu did you pull- chassis or fabric interconnect?

Oh I finally read the subject line and see this is about provisioning vs alerting - sorry. So what is your ticketing system? I am meeting with my team this Friday to review doing this for our system- remove all the custom property manual process and pull from the cmdb. I am not planning on using a ticket # but rather a…
