A bit confused. So, you have an HA environment with a primary and secondary server. Then you have an "additional poller" that is showing in standby? Or, do you have one of the new "poller pools", which isn't really HA. But, a poller pool has to have at least 3 servers, 2 of which will be active and one in standby… They are…

I assume you've tried typing in a higher value rather than using the slider? Yea, we aren't a fan of the actual upgrade process TBH. To limiting and difficult to use. We just write some scripts, one to preload the IOS on the devices. Another to install and reboot when we're ready. Then we look for down nodes on the…

Most often when its not cached, you forgot to select the nodes in the Policy. The report is a collection of Policy's and has a couple options. The Policy is a collection of rules, plus it defines what nodes the rules should be run against. The rules are the actual workhorse that does everything. After selecting how nodes…

This ends up looking like this on whatever page you put it on.

Yes, if you add a resource to a page of type "Custom Query", you can easily accomplish this. Here is how I do it, I'll put the search query below. Full query SELECT Replace(N.DisplayName, '.domain.com', '') AS Node, N.IPAddress , N.HardwareHealthInfos.ServiceTag AS [Master Serial], SS.SwitchStackMember.SerialNumber AS…

Go into Advanced Configuration /Orion/Admin/AdvancedConfiguration/Global.aspx Search for "Firmware", it will come up with some settings that might work for you…

The ferrari!!

Sorry, can't tell exactly what you are doing here? Are you doing an SWQL query? Or doing a search from somewhere else?

Are you still trying with TFTP? TFTP is a UDP protocol, so make sure your firewall doesn't time out stuff related to UDP, while it starts on port 69, it will switch to a random high port for the transfer. You can potentially help by increasing the blocksize using "ip tftp blocksize 8192". However, I would recommend…

The original discussion on this, done by a brilliant guy!! 😁😋

Yep, quite often the "test rule" will work, but when you put it in a report it won't. I think for me, its always the EOL condition I have in it. Instead of whatever you're using for an EOL, try using [\r\n] in its place. Should work on both testing the rule and putting it in a report.

Have you tried just doing this without the last ps-output-change like you had it? snmp-server enable traps fru-ctrl 

What version are you using? The firmware upgrade process within Solarwinds is a bit crazy, we prefer to just run a script against the boxes to transfer the file in ahead of time, then run another script to install/reboot later. Much easier. On another note, TFTP is a very insecure protocol, and fairly slow. If you don't…

Ruckus? With about 1% of the market? Man, I'd love to see better support for those with higher % of market share personally…

Supposedly in newer versions this is fixed, maybe try upgrading to 2026.2.2 or later? I think 2026.4 just came out also.

Hmm… That's one approach, but the first one I'd look at is Web Performance Monitor which you can configure to do simple monitoring, or even more complex monitoring like doing transactions on your website. I think its a module you can add on now if you're self-hosting. Although, if your SAAS, you can configure up the…

If you need it to trigger at or before the half hour happens, I'd suggest moving your "Trigger Sustained Condition" downward a bit? As @Lofstrand said, you can't count on things to be aligned where one happens in the same minute as the other. Maybe move the sustained condition down around 5-10 minutes? Your polling and…

Oh, not NPM then, you're wanting it to show up in NTA (Netflow Traffic Analyzer). If the groups are in different AS's, you can set it in Autonomous Systems settings. But, guessing you're probably really wanting to do "IP Address Groups". Both are under "Settings / NTA Settings". Fairly simple from there. Then you just have…

The meeting was great, but had odd issues getting into the meeting. Maybe Browser issues with Chrome, might have been security related to our settings. Switched to Firefox and it seemed a little better, although it took awhile and insisted on sending me a link, which took forever to get. Just an FYI - shouldn't be a big…

It shouldn't revert it, usually doesn't touch it if its been modified.

Nope, you could set up a SQL job to truncate them periodically. There is probably at least one feature request you could go vote on regarding this!!

@CourtesyIT did a ton of work on this with Compliance Rules/Reports as your link mentions. That's not quite the full story though. His rules are a great starting point for you though, but you really need to customize the rules for your environment. ie: The rule might be that you have to have an NTP server configured, and…

Yes, custom properties. Depending on exactly what you're doing, you might be able to construct an alert to assign the property for you. Much better than having to go update them all yourself…

So, because the new mission started we can't go back and finish the last day of the prior mission? Or am I missing something?

Why don't they want to give them access? Your SQL team could configure a read-only user, and probably even lock down what data / tables they have access to?

Check this out… https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-orion-variables-and-examples-sw1115.htm The ${ConfigBlockStartLine} is very specific to these config blocks and I don't believe there are any others like it. But, you might be able to use some of these other variables in what…

Maybe upgrade to 2026.2.2? It's out now and supposed to fix those issues…

Did they say it would be fixed in a later release? Did they say which release if so?

Have you done an inventory job on those nodes so it will populate those tables? You can do it by going to "Config Management", selecting the nodes, and going to "Update Inventory". Although you'd be better off going to "NCM" / "Jobs" and schedule a job to update periodically if it isn't already there. Are the nodes of the…

Since its 2026.1.1, ie: the first version released in 2026, it would only have 2025 vulnerabilties. Unless you download new ones. Go into NCM settings / Firmware Vulnerability Settings and set things up there. Normally, if your server can reach the Internet, it should update periodically. But, if you're like me and your…
