YAHTZEE!!! Awesome thank you!!

I wish that was an option. We tied SW user accounts to domain groups that my team manages. Management wants all users to have 'at the very least' a very limited read-only view into Solarwinds. So we have a Guest Account that's super limited and with read-only rights. This has lead to fields in the database at can be…

So yeah..... after sometime going over our migration documentation and installation steps we were able to figure it out. Luckily it was a simple fix and in plain site. Here's our resolution, or at least as I understand it. Our old system didn't have auto login (sorry I'm sure I'm calling it out incorrectly), but our new…

Congrats! 

rschroeder It has been my experience that the switch ignores any remaining port-security command lines as the feature is disabled by the "no switchport port-security" command. In fact that is our default configuration for switches, all switches have the port-security commands minus the command that enables it. Nodes on the…

Am I missing something, this hot fix is only for Orion Platform 2018.4 only!!! Are there plans to release a hot fix for those of us still on 2018.2?? This issue was first addressed as being an issue in platform 2018.2 back in September. It would have been nice to have a hot fix that addresses people who are using both…

Completed.

A couple of things have changed with I first posted this. PagerDuty changed their alarming format from a JSON API to a HTTPS Post, which resolved a couple of different issues for us. But here's the HTTPS Post for node down that works. Custom properties and called out in the custom_details section. { "payload": { "summary":…

I think I'm missing something. I copied and pasted the code into a custom HTML and waiting about 30 min and everything still shows no data. Is there something else we need to do besides copy and past?

Yes, as much as I can.

Brilliant! I made a few changes. It now shows the host name and you can search on the host name along with the IP address, interface and interface description. SELECT NIP.NODE.SysName AS [Name] ,NIP.IPAddress AS [IP Address] ,NIP.Interface.Name AS [Interface] ,NIP.Interface.Alias AS [Description] ----Use for Search…

Yes, there's a couple of different ways I've accomplished this from fairly simple the ridiculously complicated. I'll assume you just want the simple solution. The issue or complexity comes down to the trigger action. It sounds like you have the alert itself configured for 24x7 but you want alert notifications to have a…

I'm confused are you looking for a report that shows when a device is currently down or it was down "x" minutes ago and it was down from point "A" to point "B"? If you want a report that shows a device was down from point "A" to point "B", you might try a different approach. Rather than doing status do Event Type, like…

Prashant, The info you've supplied isn't really enough to fully say that the problem might be. However, when I have problems I usually role back to the simplest form of monitoring and work my way up from there. Possible troubleshooting steps - - Can you successfully do a ICMP only monitor to this node? <tests basic ICMP…

No, everything should remain in the DB. I've changed SNMP v3 auth/priv and username and then rediscovered the nodes with the new creds and retained all historical data. I've even changed from SNMP v1 to SNMP v3, back to SNMP v1 and back again to SNMP v3 and i didn't loose anything. I might have lost a few things but what…

Come one SW, can we please have a product that's stable?!?!? We're experiencing the same issue. Running UDT 3.3.1 HF 1 on a SQL server 2012 R2 and we've run the BD fix yesterday and it only made matters worse, this is just crazy!!! <case# 00157360> If the issue wasn't bad enough here's the sad part. I keep running the…

Zabs, This is basically the same thing cahunt said, but with a little bit more detail. We put use access-lists to limit the systems that can communicate to our networking equipment and my example reflects that. Simply drop off the access-list information if it's not relevant. Also my example shows SHA/AES 128, simply swap…

We have the same issue in our environment. We have a large number of serves that support video camera systems that will always be at or above the default threshold capacity. I found a Thwack articular out here, sorry I don't have the link, that addresses this issue. Here's what we did in a nutshell. * Create a custom…

Bharris, Real-Time change is your solution, we use it and it's never given us an issue. However, just enabling it on the NCM settings page along doesn't enable it. I'm going to assume you've already completed the following 5 steps. * Enabled Real-Time Change Detection on the NCM settings page. * Configured the SMTP server…

What's the 3rd party application? We just implemented PagerDuty and SW sends a JSON API to PD. It can be bi-directional but our security team won't allow it. I was told SW could do HTTP posts, but the direct JSON API is preferred.

Dave, We have 8 APE's and 3 AWS, and the primary. Yes, all the AWS's are behind a F5 load balancer that does round robin connections. We intentionally kept the primary poller out of the pool. Only the Solarwinds admins login into the primary poller's web console. As I mentioned we have 8 APE's. We put them behind the F5…

Jeff, If I understand what you're looking for, is an idea on what a subject line might look like for a alert notification versus a clear notification. if this is correct, see my screenshots below. I prefer to keep my subject line short and clean and then put the vital information in the message body. Email Alert Trigger…

Mike, I would highly suggest you upgrade first and then migrate. Believe me it would be a lot easier!! The new installer is a "one shot - one kill" kind of approach. It installs all software packages, updates and hotfixes all at once. You don't really have to worry about what to install first. Plus if you have Additional…

To build on Leon's point, we would have to see the scope of the alert and the trigger condition to better answer your question. Lord only knows how many times I've had a incorrect trigger condition that sent off way to many false-positive alert notifications. The reason I say this is the mute option should do the job, but…

Thank you everyone. It sounds like the most common issue everyone experienced was the updating agent issue, which we experienced when we upgraded to the previous build. Based on everyone's reply, we're going to move forward and upgrade next Tuesday. Our systems can access the internet, so i'm going to take heed and…

rgnetmon - There's already a open thread on this issue, see SolarWinds Agent using 2-3+ GB RAM I would also highly suggest opening a ticket with support on this issue. Lastly, if you haven't upgraded/patched to Orion build 2018.2 Hotfix 6 do so. It might resolve your issue as it's resolved other peoples, although it didn't…

Ravik, A couple of things, If it's feasible I would suggest investing in a second AWS, move all users off of the primary polling engine and setting up a load balancer in front of your AWS's. We have well over 100 users who could use Solarwinds at any given time. Here's what our SW environment looks like. The F5 load…

Your request is fairly generic in terms of what is it you want. But none-the-less here are some examples of alerts I've built: Low drive space: Subject: Alert: System Volume Threshold Notification for ${N=SwisEntity;M=FullName} Message: Full Name: ${N=SwisEntity;M=FullName} Volume Size ${N=SwisEntity;M=VolumeSize} Volume…
