Beat me to it, Sorry though you did ask for an easy way, but in simple terms you drag maps onto a map the same as you do with nodes.

Having upgraded today and not knowing about this problem which has also cause me some problems. So Please either release SP1 with this fix in ASAP or if SP1 has to wait for other things to be added then a hot fix just to resolve this problem would at lease be a start.

For the information asked for my Windows 2003 Server running Orion is running all Orion Servers including Syslog and Trap Services. However it is not running SQL as that is on a seperate box. I see how this is only going to cloud the issue as there seems to be no instances the same.

I do not think it is the SQL as I have a Windows 2003 Server SP 2 running SQL Server 2000 with no issues. However it is not running IIS. My SW Poller is Running Windows 2003 SP and IIS and I also have not issues. The Windows 2003 Server SP 2 I am having issues with is the one running as a Domain Controler albeit running…

Sorry the link still does not work.

The strange thing here is I have one server where this was not working but have not had the time to lookat it yet (Windows 2003 SP2) and this is only running IIS as the aditional Solarwinds Web Service, However it is also a domain Controller. There might be something in that. 

Would love too, but the above link does not work. Thanks David.

Must have been a long week, All working fine now, it was the confusion of having two Orion Directories one in the Web directory and the other in the Program Files directory. You guessed it I put it in the wrong one. Thanks and a great piece of work.

This is a very nice to have solution and I hope that SW will look into it, but if you are have issues with you corporate email system, then build yourself a linux box and it comes with a mail system that you then have control over an send all your on call alerts to that. this mail server will then send on to the corporate…

I to will be wanting to migrate o Ver 9 when released. It would be nice if Solarwinds would make more information available on there website about future releases of all there software. No mater how hard I have looked over the years, how do you get copies of there BETA version to test and evaluate, this really would make…

This is something I found several years ago when we first installed NetPerfMon and ask the same question. I would agree that there are other features that either need to be added or improved. But how long does some changes need to be on the road map.

Having trouble attaching a screen shot.

I have give the file access from everyone and still can not see it in the list. Seeing the following error in Web Log but not sure if it is related. 2008-02-22 13:56:06,850 [9] ERROR ClassicSiteProxy - Exception requesting…

Thanks Mark you are a star. It's been a long time since I had to do this now I know.

As you can see not in the list.

Soory could have told you that as we have the same.

Sorry should have made it clear. I have done all that and it still does not appear in the list to select. David

There is still a problem if you are using the DirectLink Account.

Thats good yes it does fix it for reports but there is still no access to use these custom fields in limiting a user account to what they cae see. I have one entry for which I can use but cannot see any of the other custom fields.

This looks great, but I am having trouble adding the SyslogMessagesRate Chart. Any Ideas. Thanks

I would also agree and I seem to remember that down interface was promised for release in Ver 9 now we are on 9.1 SP1 and still waiting.

I can only say I think it depends on how you buy your products. Our Supplier has just done that, both consolidation to one account and making everything expire at the same time. For us this happened about two years ago. IT can be done

I upgrade my system last week and had the same problem. I have raised a ticket with Solarwinds Ticket No 31667. Solarwinds are aware and working on the problem. Hope this helps. David

I think Orion should add a feature like this to the product, but it should also go one step further and be a proper aduit trail. We should all be able to run a report and find out what has been done, i.e. who deleted or added that node to both the poller and the maps. There also needs to be more intergration between the…

I know that you used to be able to as I do exactly this on my system. However on an identiacl system that I also look after we do not do this. Only last week I was asked to do this on this other system and yes I can now not see a way in how to do this, nor even change my current system. Any info on this would be most…

This did indeed come in in ver 8.5, but a God send where you have a large node base across lots of vendors. However I see no reason why SW can not give the customer a choice and make it a selectable option. Then it would suit more people.

I would like to see more on these issues as they are clearly not highlighted in any of the Solarwinds documations I have seen over the years. I have one poller with 8000 elements on it and colecting data every 5 mins. The DB Server is a stand alone box with a direct connection to the poller as well as the network. I did…

I had this problem with version 8.0 but the problem has gone with 8.5.1 SP3.

That would be very useful so if there is a way we can use Orion NPM to do this then I would also like to know the answer.

I will be intrested to here more about this as I was due to upgrade to 8.5.1 last week. The only reason it did not happen was that I became unavailable to do the upgrade. I am now looking to do it in the next couple of weeks. Good luck in finding the solution. David
