Possibly verify your SNMPV3 settings between the two platforms. Perhaps one of them or the associated passwords are incorrect on the NPM website. I use both of those tools frequently and have not ran into any issues as you describe. 

https://thwack.solarwinds.com/t5/Orion-SDK-Documents/Full-Orion-alert-rule-export-using-Powershell-and-OrionSDK/tac-p/601341#M275 If you get it working please post your solution. I am also trying to export/import alerts from an old system to a new one. Thanks in advance.

I suspect it is an account issue with the script. When you run it at the CMD prompt it is being ran as your login, when SolarWinds runs it it is being ran as a computer account.

@"mesverrum" #Question, how is the initial connection set up for your script? Do I have the source and destination backwards? # Verify OrionSDK SwisSnapin presence if (!(Get-PSSnapin -Name "SwisSnapin" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)) { Add-PSSnapin SwisSnapin -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue } # Define Variables $swissource =…

Try adding a resource similar to that. It will show all the custom poller values for that node.

First question would be did you assign the pollers to your nodes? It can be done under Node Management or when building out the pollers. 

Reduce your query to only the columns you need to display.

Create a new alert, under Trigger Condition select Auditing Event, Audit Event Message, Contains, AlertID That should get you started. You may need to look in your Message Center under Show Audit Events to get more specific text than AlertID for your system. 

I'm running 20.2.1 and Report Writer appears to have been partially disabled. Can not create a new report. Looks like you may need to use the web based reporting tool going forward.

Did you try Not Like in your Where statement ?

Take a look at the SolarWinds SDK (Software Development Kit) You should be able to script it through that tool.

We monitor interfaces that are uplinks to other switches/routers and ones that we need utilization statistics on. For example a closet access switch would only have the uplinks and stack ports monitored, not any of the ports that PC's plug into. 

As long as network A can talk to Network B then it should work fine. I poll devices on many different networks with all of my APE's

If I'm running the powershell script from my own PC I use the -Trusted which uses the credentials of my PC. Replace MYORIONSERVER with your servers full FQDN name. Attached file unmanaged.txt

Sounds like you may need to add another condition and add something similar to interface description is null

I upgraded my lab environment yesterday and so everything is running fine. The only snag was we have another product that installs NPCAP so you need to remove it prior to the install or the installer will hang. That also existed in 2019.4 so we were aware of it when it happened.

Perhaps look at the events within message center and see what triggered that event originally. 

I think that feature was disabled by the browsers due to security issues. I was not able to find a workaround for it yet. -Update, sorry I misread the question. It was Iframe within a Custom HTML frame that I wasn't able yet to create a workaround for.

https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/SQL-Query-to-trace-which-actions-are-assigned-to-an-alert Here is another one

As a workaround you could run a script to unmanage the node for 11 hours 55 minutes every day

Does the 'Time on Battery' field change from Zero when power is lost? 

I ran ours on a shared instance for years and it ran fine. The only time I ever ran into issues is when doing upgrades. In a shared instance its probably not a good idea to run any type of installer with SQL SA, so on a couple occasions I ran into rights issues during an install. Other than that it ran fine. 

Great report! Thanks for sharing it. 

Thanks for sharing. I have seen that happen as well and have rebuilt alerts because of this. Didn't know it could be fixed this easily.

It is an add on product to NPM.

Google SolarWinds SDK or SolarWinds SWQL Studio and you should find the SWQL Studio on GitHub somewhere. Install that on your PC and you will be able to read your database and write queries, create reports, etc. I believe this will get you there…

Try editing of recreating the report. I have received similar messages if a node or interface that the report referenced has been deleted or re-added and SolarWinds can't find the resource that is requested.

Depending on the version you are running there are a couple options. If you have an older version RDP to your Orion server and look under SolarWinds Orion and find the Trap Viewer program. If you are on the newest version you can access the feature from the web console. Either one allow you to create alerts from traps that…

You may need to create some custom pollers to get yours working. RDP to your SolarWinds Main Poller and then open C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\snmpwalk.exe and use that program to pull all of the information down from the MIB tree for that device. You can use that for your custom poller creation or there are…

SELECT TOP 10 NodeID, IPAddress, Caption, DNS, IP, IP_Address, IPAddressGUID, NodeName FROM Orion.Nodes I believe when a node is added Orion does a lookup and adds whatever is returned into the DNS Field. If you manually enter a name under Caption what ever is entered in that field is what is shown as the node name. The…
