Was there any sort of custom POC trials and feedback? I remember way back when, there was community feedback before things were implemented in the product as well as site changes. Sadly there is no more of that. It's so weird that the auto dropdown takes up half the screen. I really don't need to see "Top Contributors"…

Clarification needed. The title says "ARE YOU A SAM USER? WRITE A REVIEW FOR THWACK POINTS AND A GIFT CARD!" but later on in the description it says "a chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card". So which is it - get a gift card or be in a drawing to win a gift card? Thanks

Hi Hi None of the links mentioned in "WHERE CAN I GET MORE INFORMATION?" are working. Any way to get the links updated? Thank you Amit

DOne.

I have seen spectrum, whats up gold, mart/prtg, hp openview, splunk, cisco network assistant, nagios, and some custom linux scripts. I have done quite a few spectrum/whatsup gold/big brother/prtg to Orion conversions. One thing that many clients ask for are small graphs similar to prtg (I had requested that as a feature…

User tried to plug a USB cord into a network port on a laptop and opened a ticket complaining it doesn't fit.

Hi!! I was looking at the SolarWinds shop and I have a question. Is the "SolarWinds Mouse" wireless? I know there are two there one of them says "Wireless Pocket Mouse" and the one says "SolarWinds Mouse" - but doesn't say if it's corded or wireless.

Done and received the amazon gift card.

Working with SolarWInds NPM, NCM, NTA, SAM, LEM, UDT, WPM, IPAM, SRM, VMAN, VNQM, NTM, FOE, MA, ETS, Kiwi Syslog and APE Using Telalert for alert processing. SolarWinds would execute an external program and pass the information to Telalert for ticket generation.

True, can not post picture of client environment. But I can tell you really funny stories for many of their setups...

Got it!! Thanks!! Here is a pic of the mouse pad and mouse 

Can't take the poll

Enhanced icons does not work as expected by the client. When the client sees a node un-pingable for 90 minutes and the node status is at 'critical' and the 'node down' alert does not get triggered - client is not happy. “Why did PRTG properly notified me that the node went down and SolarWinds didn’t?” was the first thing…

Hi @"yumdarling". Sent you a DM

That makes it more clearer!! I was wondering what "Application Summary" has to do with Bandwidth Analyzer pack. So, you want "NetFlow Application Summary", not "Application Summary" (which is a SAM page).

None in Japan.

It's great news considering SW was not on there last year. I agree with mcam that I would have expected SW to be much more to the right for 'completeness of vision'. Maybe next year with advances in agent based monitoring, AppStack, and tighter integration between the modules (especially VMAN and STM) However, SW has been…

Very nize front end for nmap! Will easily identify which ports are actually open.

Ahhh. I did the SAM last week and not only I didn't get the gift card. I didn't get points. lol I'll try it again this week.

Not worried about cyber Monday as the Internet connection is monitored and an email has been sent out to all users letting them know that we're watching all Internet activity. We did catch a person watching Netflix (thanks to NTA and UDT).

Using AuditEventMessage seems to give more consistent results. SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [dbo].[AuditingEvents] where auditeventmessage like '%mut%'

hahah!! good one! support seems to be random. One time I got a really great support and he got hold of a dev person and we were able to solve the issue within a day. Other times, it's been meh and takes weeks to resolve. Other times it's been bad and the support person just wants to close the case.

Thanks Chad. I got the same answer from SolarWinds (case#01950570) "The dev team is primarily focusing on the platform features for seamless experience. But still for SQWL Studio we are planning some updates, internally tracked under OSHPD-828. Unfortunately, no timeline that can be shared at this time. Once we have…

The default is debug. You need to go to each category and change it.

Out-of-the-box is configured for debug. If you are not experencing any issues - you can bump it down to warning. Large log files are indication of an issue and that should be resolved first. For example, this is from CoreBusinessLayer There is something wrong with the permissions. The Orion app seemingly works fine - but…

They turn it back on when investigating…

The eventtype of SAM Monitor Down is 507. So it soule be faily simple to filter on the events table. SELECT tostring(tolocal(e.EventTime)) as [Time] ,e.Message as [Message] ,concat('/NetPerfMon/images/Event-',e.EventType,'.gif') as [_IconFor_Message] from Orion.Events e where daydiff(tolocal(e.eventtime),getdate()) = 0 and…
