">b macca I don't see any way around modifying existing alerts or creating new ones (unless suggestion from ">silverbacksays works for you) but to help with future administration you can create a custom property and reference the property as your recipient. You can create one alert and as long as your nodes/ interfaces/…

Perhaps group your universal device pollers as seen here How to Set Up Multi-Column Table With Custom Device Poller Querying the group makes the SQL/ SWQL sorcery less necessary. Create a Node Details page or perhaps a report to show poller values for the poller *group*. Send that page or report via your alert.

You can use the 'Discovery Ignore List' feature within discovery as suggested by @neomatrix1217:

Possible if you're on an older version of Windows. I had this working years ago when I tried...at least on some networks.

Saw about 900+ videos listed in YouTube by 'solarwindsinc'. That could keep you busy for a few weeks. (May be a generation thing--I prefer to read admin guides over watching videos. Not that I enjoy either of those, just relatively speaking.)

An alert for streaming traffic could be created with some of the information here. Identify video streaming traffic using NTA - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support User uploading large files might be interesting (data exfiltration?). Lack of recent NetFlow data would be helpful.…

Spend money on EOC license? Enterprise Operations Console | EOC | SolarWinds ... Allows enterprises and Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to monitor overlapping IP addresses ...

Yes. One way is to create a summary page and add one of the resources like Top 10 or Top 25 or Top 50 or TopXX list of whatever flavor you desire. If you choose TopXX you can specify what XX is. You can also add a filter to limit the type of interface shown.

Have you.defined dependencies? https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Define-and-use-dependencies-in-Orion-NPM

How are you looking to use the custom properties? I ask in case they are unnecessary to whatever end result you're looking for. You might consider the conditions you listed as being criteria for membership in a group. Then work with the groups that are dynamically populated.
-
Does it behave any differently when you change "r1" and "r2" in the alert to "R1" and "R2"?
-
Have any restrictive group policies that would prevent this? Any HIPS obstacles?
-
This is neither quick nor pain free, but it's one way to handle: How to create a simple custom view of multiple interfaces' bandwidth utilization I realize you are asking about latency and packet loss vs. bandwidth utilization, but the same process should work for you.
-
Do you use custom properties? If so, and if your property is 'Store 1', perhaps change to '1' (remove the word 'store'). Alternatively, 1 Store, 2 Store 3 Store...Does that help?
-
Create a poller transform and then just alert on the transform. I've done this for swap space used/ total/ available scenarios.

NPM hardware requirements

In at least one situation, I saw McAfee HIPS strangling a SolarWinds process and the only evidence (without HIPS logs) was a process running out of memory.
-
You will want to use the Network Configuration Manager (NCM) module. This is licensed separately from NPM. You can poll the MIB involved to get interface description using only SNMP queries and NPM however.
-
Do you have SAM module? I ask since you've posted this question in NPM forum and SAM would be a more ideal tool for service monitoring.
-
Yes, Using SAM Linux script monitor: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/docs/DOC-188909
-
Nodes table of database would have this information. You can also edit a node and view source HTML. Guess what--it's viewable!

I know it's not the specific answer to the question you asked, but have you investigated yet via Hubble?

alert recipient email addresses--initially because there used to be a limit of approx. 220 characters in alert utility GUI (probably in 2012). I had to update too many alerts too often so I just started using a custom property device type/ team/ regional gateway

Perhaps some universal device poller transforms could be involved... http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/en/flarehelp/orionplatform/content/core-transforming-poller-results-sw704.htm Knowing how bad my SQL abilities are, I would do heavy lifting with transforms. Maybe your alert could use custom property thresholds and…

While I don't own one, I can immediately spot the lack of beer cup holders. Your college aged son might have to add those. Sorry for the shallow/ uninformed review. Would someone mind loaning me one for proper review?
