Very good points, the 3 signs that your nms is not loved anymore could not be more spot on.

Great Write Up! I can more easily track network changes with NCM. We have our separate paper work tools I only wish we could manage changes through NCM. Normally any change I do get a nice job created so I can enjoy the day or be in two places at once and just get that lovely email to know my change was completed!

any port with storm-control shutdown

I'm starting to hear the faint sounds of a The Velvet Underground song, while I'm, waiting....

Gotta hit em in the Head gotta Hit em real hard! *To get the steaks off the hoof that is* * No imaginary animals were harmed by this statement, or while it was being made *

Good point with never trusting the descriptions... the most overlooked part of the interface configuration. These are all good points! As Jfrazier mentiones; "The biggest challenge is what to do with new devices found on the network...with no DNS entry, no SNMP, etc. " - is the part that satisfies my hacking needs. * as a…

DAD GUMMIT! crwchief6, CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Specifically those chained to the desk have easy metrics to make sure they are at least working. Then others to determine possibly how well you are doing throughout and as an entirety of the call. With that said, there is nothing better than someone in a training capacity who can listed to calls and coach your HD…

Crossing Silo's is great, but who's gonna make the cross and end up getting lost in another departments rice? Maybe we can just play in our respective Silo's together - throwing the little tid bits(data and details) needed between silos... it keeps people from busting through walls.

I would say layers 9 & 10 specifically are the cause of most problems.

Very important points if you want your monitoring to stay relevant and seen as a need, rather than just something that needs to be updated all the time. Thanks for putting this together!

The virtual world is taking over to compensate for the lack of real space... but this is the trend, and it always has been. IBM exec's once thought no one would ever need more than 2 Megabytes of RAM on a machine.

Great reassessment and impressive show of care for your customer's needs. The malleability of SolarWinds as a company and support model will benefit your current and future clients. This is what the industry needs more of!

Slowly...Reelin' them in

I drank extra for ya, Major Caffeine Bump!

KITT never ran over anyone... who didn't deserve it. And he never ran over Michael

If I were an Aussie, I'd find a PO Box in some area, close to someone... who may be able to pick it up, and ship it out... but not me.. who has time for that mess. SMH, just let them play.

A Pause button would be nice.. but the same way that you have the option to set the refresh rate for the NOC view we would like to be able to adjust refresh rate of specific views. Adding the option to the customize view section would be the easiest place to adjust. Any pages built for meeting/showing off purposes can be…

I'll RDP in to say hello

It Certainly was a match for the ages!

I'm game for any customizable grouping, via group or template, map, app or custom property (and even the few things that I didn't think of on this fly) that I would be able to sort my nodes by within the AJAX!

wluther indeed, because the cause is Just!

aluciani , I am always concerned with the business impact. Knowing what is affected, for however long allows the ability to calculate the lost dough $. This does require actionable metrics. For us, its a tiered measure indicating a certain level of issue. Mainly 1 through 4 being the number of users or critical care…

If I do not select the mandatory property when adding nodes, or editing then it does not supply a value. I believe it does stay unknown. I actually double checked, and confirmed after editing a node - still in unknown, the drop down untouched said NONE... and that is not configured as an option. *If you have a test…

You can not control what other people do or the ethics they abide by when conducting business. I do not agree with it, and consider it unethical to use a bid from one company to get a better price from another. Not only due to the process, but differences in companies. You may be paying more for better support, features or…

is IT lunch yet Bump!

Bump...

I like this idea, having different page refresh rates based on what the page is could be very useful. Of course so is any addition to the customization.

I am not sure how I survived up until now. Thanks sqlrockstar​, life just got better! p.s. there is a constant competition within my Wife's family to bring the best dish. I say, we shall win Christmas Again this year!
