@"danielleh" I ended up not getting a confirmation, and consequently a link to the webcast, for the evening session either. As a government customer, it's possible the emails are getting blocked a the DOE JC3 level based on recent events. Although, I get many other emails from Solarwinds. Undoubtedly there is something…

Am I supposed to get a confirmation email with a link to the webinar? I registered and get the webpage that says "thanks for registering", but I have no link to the actual webinar. Is the email getting blocked?

I'll start by saying; I really REALLY like the maps feature built in to Orion. I've always hated Atlas (there, I said it). Atlas was flexible, but slow, kludgy, and RDP'ing into the server to create and edit maps was so early-2000s-ish. Orion maps is clean and responsive. I've created maps for our core, and a map for each…

Is there a link to the excessively large HTML email cases: #00714856, #00867645 ? Is this something on which we can monitor the progress (or lack thereof)?

No doubt an interactive, live classroom is probably best for everyone. I think the most difficult part, for you in particular, is the the time zone difference. I'm trying to come up with ideas that are as close to real-time interaction as possible without actually being real-time. Maybe a Slack channel? Does one exist for…

I'm still in for helping--although I am by far from an expert, so this would be for me to learn as much as anything else. I started sketching out a very loose outline, but maybe it's best if we make it up as we go along. Seeing as how we have a very time-zone diverse audience; What if I/we created a youtube video, then…

@"gelsonds" can you confirm the exact macro you are using is this: ${N=OLM.AlertingMacros;M=OLMAlertMessage.EventMessage} ?

So it does. Thanks!

Ah. Got it. Is there something in particular you are looking for, for a first class topic? What do you need/want help with? If it's something I'm familiar with, maybe I can try to host a session or record a video. We can make up the rest as we go along.

Team or Zoom meetings would be great. They can both be recorded for anyone that couldn't attend live. I'm not sure what you're looking for from SolarWinds to provide. We could start a new thread for each Team/Zoom meeting for discussion.

Another vote to get this cleaned up! It appears to be mostly font and style definitions. Nearly all of which are unused as far as I can tell. Feel free to run this test at home. I'm using Outlook365 and notepadplusplus. Save your email report as html. This will create a base html file and a sub-folder. Note the size of the…

The real phrase I'm searching on is 'gss'. And you'll notice this rule is currently disabled, otherwise I get 20+ messages from my Cisco devices (but nothing from Juniper).…

I set up another test rule to send an email just on the host; hostname match, and other rule by sender IP address. Still no alerts triggered.

Did you get this figured out on python? python is all I've been using for the API. If not, let me know.

I'm in for this. I've spent a lot of time working with the API and writing basic queries. I can contribute what I can, but also hoping to learn from others.

Spent 3 hours on a WebEx with a SolarWinds technician today. Apparently even SolarWinds can't decipher the error logs. We uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. We can get it to work if we install SolarWinds on C: drive. Just doesn't work installing on a second drive. I can't be the only one installing SolarWinds on…

I've done that with same results. Re-ran the config wizard and created a new database, same results. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same results. I'm baffled. Thwack/KB search says to check the install logs. The install folder is 42 files with thousands of combined lines of output, and I'm not sure what to look for. Hoping…

Excellent. Thank you.

At a bare minimum that's all we need. I'm hoping for ways to make all the customizations -- e.g. dynamic groups, dependencies, reports, etc. -- more automated. 

Good info. Thanks. We migrated to dynamic groups over this past year. It's 100+ queries I have to create. I have a script that auto-creates the logic for me, but it's still a manual process--with a lot of mouse clicking--to enter. Hoping there is a way to create them via the API but I'm not finding it.

I figured as much. I've been pouring over everything I can in regards to the API as part of an automation project. I find the db schema to be quite confusing. I'm neither a programmer nor a database expert, which doesn't help. I'm not sure the loop1 docs are really written for network engineers. I'm checking out your…
