I believe the VLAN database information will be useful. I have had it where my VLAN database took a dump for no reason before. Grant it wouldn't that be that hard to reinput the information back in but it would be nice feature to have to be even more lazy.

I have used to it to compare serial numbers from the network devices to our asset tag system. Definitely would be nice to have NCM to be an inventory management tool as well if possible.

This would definitely be a great feature not only in NPM but APM as well. Like they way Exchange 2007 is setup with CCR. I was trying to add the cluster server of our SQL Cluster but it kept going to straight to the server that was active.

I think another feature that needs to be added is the ability to select more than one component to delete at once instead of deleting one at time.

I will have to agree with this guy!

Yeap that's our plan for now until next year's budget. I wished we could have gone unlimited but it was cut down to the APM50L. I knew that we needed the unlimited at the time of purchasing. We our maintenance renewals and upgrades for NPM, NTA, and NCM. The good thing is we are unlimited for all of them except…

Man your a barracuda monitoring saver! Thanks for your hard work! Poller works great!!

Anytime you do an upgrade you have to login into the machine locally with the local administrator profile. As far as Netflow goes you will have to purchase the Netflow Traffic Analyzer module for Orion if you wish to monitor netflow traffic. We have purchased this module and it helps us put it in a graphical format with…

Bryon, Thanks for your reply. I love Solarwinds trust me. It is a great application for network/systems monitoring. I would not use anything else I have been using it since I was in the Army back in 1998. Now that I am in the commercial business sector, I still find it to be the best applicaiton for monitoring. I just…

We have our AS-400 being monitored with no issues. Orion supports both SNMP V1, V2, and V3. I added mine in fine with V1 so you may have configured something wrong with your AS-400.

What exactly did the tech do? I am having the same issue. Please help!

Yeah database integration will make life simple with NPM and NCM. Will you all be working on the task scheduler with 2008? I was talking to one your guys today and he said that yall would be since Microsoft changed the API around in 2008. Seems like NPM and NCM run smoother with 2008 server than 2003. Maybe due to how the…

Okay I am confused. I am running the exchange 2007 monitor and there are at least 34 underneath that one that we are using. So you are telling me that our licensing are based off of each individual monitor? If so I was misled with the Sales department. I thought it was based off of nodes. I love Solarwinds but man this is…

What I mean by real-time is being able to see it scroll across in real-time if possible. One thing we have trouble with on the viewing the syslog from the web is being able to find specific messages. It used to work before but not it just errors out. So we have to go the server and open up Syslog viewer through programs.

Thank you for the information. I am going to start testing it out in our test lab to see how well it work as far as the ASA goes.

Donald, They also change the way NAT works in the 8.3

thank you for the quick reply. I figured it out on my own and I realized what I was doing wrong.

I think this would be great feature as well.

I forgot to mention using Dual NICS that teamed work great in Broadcom not so well with Intel NICS.

I would like to see a report for TOP XX countries. This could be useful with information for an attack from China and so on.

I definitely think it is a DNS issue. Have you tried creating an A host record for it in the DNS server?

ACDII, Only new feature you will receive from an SLX license is that you have an unlimited license for whichever Solarwinds Module you bought that SLX license for.

No problems with upgrade to SP5. The upgrade was successful. I just wish they would add the feature on managing nodes a schedule for maintenance night when everything reboots so we don't get spammed.

I just set ours to monitor all ports. I no longer have unmonitored traffic anymore

I am having the same issue!!

Scott, They templates already in the application once you set it up. If you want you will have to configure advanced alerts for other things that you are looking for. Advanced Alerts is alsow where you will setup Alerts to alert you certain times of the day or if you have a maintenance schedule you can put that in the…

What server OS are you running 2003 or 2008?

I would like to be able to set a scheduled monitor mode in Orion for nodes. Currently you have to manually set it. I would like to have it reaccuring and not have to manually do it each week. Thanks!

I will have to say great first impression! Install went smooth with minor errors but over all smooth. I wish you guys would add a reoccurring scheduled maintenance button for those of us who have scheduled maintenance. I get tired of getting spammed on maintenance day.

Yes it does and it working fine for us. We just used the default snmp string "Public" with ours and it works fine for us on the Orion monitoring side. Let's see all the usage with the volumes and memory along with CPU usuage.
