I'm pretty sure that the Virtualization Manager can monitor and alert on iSCSI disconnects on Hyper-V hosts.

Here are two of the ways I have done something similar. You can copy the current alert that you have and set a custom property for nodes D through L. With an updated alert action to email the new group. Alerting with Custom Properties - Trigger Condition Yes/No You can keep a single alert and have the the default email…

It will probably depend how the middle man syslog collector handles the forward. It's common to have this approach and SolarWinds even has their own syslog tool call Kiwi Syslog​ that can be used in the manner. You'll probably have test what you have and see how it goes.

Have you tried this template? File Age Monitor (Wildcard) You just need to update the red box below with a folder path and change the number 60 to 15. Should work with an empty folder.

antosp​, What is the end goal of checking for updates? The reason that I ask is that this would be a very noisy metric, especially since of the 100+ packages installed on your server, there could be multiple updates daily. Can you provide some more detail around this?

I would check your IIS bindings for your Orion site. See if that fixes it. If not, upgrade to NCM 7.6 and see if the issue persists.

The best way is to use any of the script component monitors in SAM, probably the PowerShell Component Monitor. You'd have to script it to call telnet and then parse the results but it's more than feasible.

Here is a similar thread that recently started about the same thing. jvb​ added his two cents as well as what I added. Intelligence into alerting

Might need more details the it's most likely not possible to have dynamic component monitors as described.

Hope this help point you in the right direction. Your script is using python and I've built mine in Powershell. I'm using a SMS provider called Clickatell but the concept should be the same as what you are using. Clickatell - SMS Gateway - Alert Overview

I know that SIP is not currently supported in the VoIP & Network Quality Manager​. It is currently listed on the "what we are working on" page What are we working on for VNQM (Updated September 14, 2017) #3 in your list should be doable on the L3 side of your network using Cisco IP SLA Operations. For #1 and #2, you might…

I'd check out this thread. Looks like damien.solodow​ posted something that has worked. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/thread/25943#155026

Have you tried to pull the Status from Orion.Nodes? It's outputting a numerical value. 1 = Up 2 = Down 3 = Warning 4 = Critical

You should be able to use this built in EXE with SolarWinds to start/stop/restart a windows service. Restarting Windows Services with an Alert Action

There isn't a good way to do MFA with WPM. It'll be prone to break every time the application requires that code. It would be better to try and bypass MFA for just that account that WPM is using. WPM uses up to 7 local windows accounts on the server that the WPM player is installed on. If you can't bypass MFA then you'll…

There isn't a way to pull out that widget exactly like it displays in AppInsight for IIS. However, i have created my own SSL monitor that pulls this info here. SSL Certificate Expiration - SNI capable

I think the Linux File Age Monitor is what you're looking for.

just curious how long you waited between assigning the template to the group and checking if everything was assigned. I found out I had to wait at least 15 minutes after assigning a template to a group before it would show assigned. My group only had a few servers so maybe the group of 40 is taking longer to populate…

IPAM will preform an ICMP and SNMP check against an IP to check for availability. A node with ICMP only results doesn't allow IPAM to see what MAC is being used. A node with ICMP/SNMP does allow it to see the MAC How IPAM gets a MAC Address via SNMP - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support Also, if you add your DHCP…

larrynfp​, That is a good question. The HTTP monitor doesn't allow the use of custom properties like that. However, this could be done with a custom script monitor. Any scripting language could be used, depending on your preference. That custom property could be referenced directly in the script with…

Yes, if you edit that application monitoring there is a dropdown where you can choose X consecutive polls.

I've seen something like this in the past. The web console of the PDU showed decimal places but the correlating SNMP OID rounded to whole numbers. Can you confirm that the SNMP value from the device is actually reporting the whole number? This would give a better idea on which troubleshooting path to take. There is a…

If you have the Server & Application Monitor​ and you're leveraging Asset Inventory, then you can create a report to pull server NIC MAC addresses.

I'd run the config wizard as administrator and select websites at the beginning. That usually fixes errors like that.

If you are already using the AppInsight for Exchange template then you should be able to alert off the total mailbox size. I do not believe it is granular enough to alert on a specific folder inside of the mailbox. As far as a custom powershell script, this would be the base of it. You'd want to add in error checking and…

If you want to watch for VM traffic between virtual hosts, then you need to setup netflow on the switch(s) that connect those hosts. If you want to see VM traffic between VM's on the same host then it depends on what type of VMware licensing you have. VMware's enterprise/enterprise plus license allow for Distributed…

It has been known to have issues with Windows 7 or any workstation grade OS. Really need a server grade OS, anything Windows 2012 or higher will work.

I'm hoping that with powershell/.NET coming to Linux natively that this would be a thing without having to mess with wine. (crossing fingers)

you can create this as a widget on a dashbaord or in a report. For a dashboard widget, go to the dashboard that you want to add it to and click 'customize page' on the top right. Add a 'Custom Table' resource. Back on the dashboard, find that widget and click the little 'Edit' on the top right. You have to select a…
