Reading the blog, it seems as if the Mobile Admin server is inside the firewall, is that how it works? Is there a two factor authentication support to gain access or is it simply an opened up web server with user/pass authentication?

I am a small shop, but believe that adding NCM to Core DB is fine. Removing NTA as it is a huge IO hog I can see working well, but does NCM really get that much IO?

Thanks for the reply. I'll look into this. We early on got in the habit (good or bad) of putting "steps to resolve" right in the alert, so we have 1 alert for each SAM monitor. It grew a lot, hence my predicament. Maybe I'll dive into variables and custom variables a bit more and look into that to cleanup and streamline…

Try this, I've not changed teh format you don't want, but this I think is where you would do it. In teh NCM config setting page: myserver/.../ConfigSettings.aspx Change the section: Specify a template that should be used for naming config files: I don't know the variables, but maybe like this for you:…

Works like a charm. Wow it is so much easier to do date stuff in Powershell!

It is important for us b/c we are required if possible to disable telnet/http when ssh/https is an option. I assume that in the current setup of using port 80, Orion is logging in to the UCS server using clear text, which will not go over well with our auditors.

Ahh, no, it will not work that way. You can have multiple entries, but each server is its own line. Thanks for the thought though.

Awesome Steven, well if I am teh only one with a request...I guess I'd say Powershell. I appreciate your time for sure!

LOL..yes, I am in! Well as long as you like a half baked dos batch writer!

Did not work for me either, seems we have to have http enabled, adn using port 80.

That was the issue, thanks. I verified that typing down (case insensitive) worked. Then once down, I could go back and see the option "Down".

Jiri, The issue it not just adding a new syslog server, it is ensuring I only have what I expect. For instance, I don't want the 3.3.3.3 server that is now pointing to an uncontrolled server gathering syslog data from my switches, so I need to ensure all switchs ONLY have 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2 syslog servers setup. e if I…

This is a very old report Any chance there is an update to it to work with more current releases?

Yes, you can do it manually or schedule. To do it manually, go to Configs, Purge Old Configs, click the Select Purge Method tab and select the date and go.

You can go in to console and say Purge based on older than 1/1/2012 from Configs/Purge old configs.

I had the same issue, called support. They logged in as root and restarted the manager service, said the alias db was out of sync or something. hth

Ok, so wrote my own. It is not perfect, but works good enough. First one will run interactively, and you put in the date name of the folder to remove, ie: purge all folders named 3-6-2012 or all of march 2012 by using wildcards like 3-*-2011. This one runs just fine, no issues. @echo offSET…
