You can manually set your machine type and icon in the database if you are so inclined. I've even created some of my own .gif icons to use for certain objects. All you have to do is find an image you like and save it. Edit that image to be 16x16 and save it to your web server here:…

Just curious when the points are awarded?

Well, there were actually lots of questions. The ASA at that site and Lancope were both seeing the traffic at exactly the same time, so they lined up perfectly, but the source IP's were different on each. The ASA at that site showed the source IP as my SW poller. Soooo... he was making assumptions that IPAM on my poller…

First, you have to wait for the subnet to be scanned. You can watch the scan status. Once scanned, they should auto populate in the right-hand pane. I've found on larger subnets (really anything /23 or less) that IPAM will fail to show the full list of addresses. (i.e. It will only display 256 instead of 512) In those…

Yeah, OI agree this should be a thing. I have so many devices and we want to keep things current.

Don't hate the player. I was simply following the advice of SolarWinds AND Cisco tech support to get to this resolution. If it works for you otherwise, great. I fought this for quite a while before we finally got it to work. Ultimately, I hope this serves to help people solve the problem and/or get SolarWinds to put it on…

At the time of this writing, version 2.2.0.470

Getting the same error. I'd love to participate.

Let's BUMP this one to get this wart some fresh air.

Yeah, I totally agree. I've had a case open now since mid September of last year with still no results. (Yes, that's 6 MONTHS now) SolarWinds' tech support is by far their weakest link. Our company is actually looking to possibly REPLACE SolarWinds because of all the issues we've experienced with tech support. Honestly,…

I'm currently working on migrating all of our SolarWinds servers to 2016. I'm getting down to my last server, my SQL server, and I'm getting real nervous. I'm running SQL 2014 and if I'm going to bite the bullet, I'm thinking I'll upgrade my SQL version as well. Has anyone attempted to use SQL 2017 yet? Is SQL 2017…

Just emailed you my view directly. It would be nice if there were SolarWinds classes offered to show the various options available for NOC wall views. I've already expressed an interest in a map building class.

I TOTALLY agree on this. I have even posted something about this here: BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN MODULES ( ) PLEASE go visit and vote on this to help the SolarWinds community at large. Seems stupid for different modules to have to do some of the same discovery.

Yeah, we had to go with Cisco Prime to be able to monitor our APs more closely. SolarWinds is more of a chainsaw where Prime would be a scalpel. I'd much prefer to have a single place to monitor everything.

Finally an all-in-one update installer! My upgrade went relatively smooth. I had a little trouble with upgrading my additional poller because it kept timing out. The poller install package has a hard limit of 30 min to gather all the info from the main poller. I found that if you grab 'CoreInstaller.msi' and 'MIbs.msi'…

This should give you the info on what nodes are in which 'Groups' (containers). I did it in SQL, but it's probably the same in SWQL. SELECT CMS.EntityID AS [NodeID], CMS.Name, C.Name AS [Group] FROM ContainerMemberSnapshots AS CMS LEFT JOIN Containers AS C ON C.ContainerID=CMS.ContainerID This one should pull a list of all…

Diagnostics uploaded. I changed the name on my zip file to include my THWACK username at the end. I'm happy to help whenever I can.

If you are going to do multiple internet connections, they should really terminate into a router. It's kinda what they do. If you do it correctly on a router, then alerting becomes much easier.

Ok, I've got it figured out. If you go into your 'Device Templates Management' you can copy one of the Cisco templates that exists. In there you can remove the first line under commands the tries to do a 'terminal width 0' You will also need to edit the lines that define the command names for 'startup' and 'running'. Just…

Will your FTD let you do just a 'show run'? On mine it does not recognize that command. I have to do the full 'show running-config'. I'm having the same issue trying to get my configs backed up. I created a specific connection profile for the FTD's and I can get connected. My problem is that SolarWinds is initially sending…

Go in and edit the node.... On the edit page, just under the name of the device, make sure you have "Node Details for ASA - Summary" selected as your default view.

I do the same type of thing for a variety of data. I run a bunch of python scripts that go out and poll the SolarWinds SQL DB on some frequency to grab the data I want to graph. So for interface use, I'm typically looking for how much bandwidth we are using inbound and outbound. We have a number of carriers, so I poll…

Not sure if this is your field or not, but I found "ReplacementPartNumber" column in [dbo].[NCM_NodeProperties]. If you find the appropriate column, you can update the info using SQL Management Studio.

It would be nice if SolarWinds would publish some recommendations on this since they are pushing us onto 2016. I'm mostly running VM's, but my DB server is a bare metal server, so I'm looking at an in place upgrade.

Are you kidding? SolarWinds hardly supports switch stacks and FEX's. (Apparently the technology is too new) It's truly a shame SolarWinds hasn't tackled this issue head on. Instead, they rely on us to make our own custom pollers for this kind of thing.

Riverbed Technology appliance - 1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.10

Go look at your monitor templates for IIS. (All settings > SAM Settings > Monitor Templates > IIS) By default there are 24 components in there, and each one costs you a license. You can get away with monitoring just a few specific components in there and still get a great view of your server performance. If you find you…

I'd claim to have answered this myself, but it's on a Cisco forum that I found my pseudo answer. I kinda don't like the 'solution', but i had to stop the false alerts. The 'solution' is at the very bottom. Here's the article link: Solved: Te1/1/X Bias Current Sensor Solar Wind ... - Cisco Community Cisco TAC told me the…

This might need to be a feature request. I'd love to have the ability to monitor changes as well.

I've experienced this very thing multiple times. My additional poller is on the other coast connected via MPLS. Every time I upgrade one of my biggest hurdles is getting my additional poller out there to actually update. I was even on a support call with a SW agent dealing with an upgrade and he understood the issue, but…
