Cool, what we need next is a way to automate the SWON installation. I have my test environment that builds VM's for any quantity of Arista devices using a hyper-v VM that I convert from a VMware image. The script builds all the networks for point-to-points and the mgmt. ports, VM's for Orion and a Linux host. The downside…

Why can't we create our own Hardware Health Monitoring device template similar to a device template. Self service is a great option and would help the community help each other.

So is there any status on this request? How can you not support Arista hardware monitoring now?

I have NCM 7.3, but I don't have the button to "Add to NCM" it looks like the NPM node screen.

I work with Scott.. The problem we are trying to solve with updating the Service Tag is if we RMA a device; we don't want to lose any of the data for that device. When a device is RMA'd our automation makes the device exactly like the previous device, the only thing that changes is the ServiceTag. What is the best way to…

Good to know. I didn't try it in the GUI. I waiting on a response from the my sales team.

I have a sprint item to look into this again (10/15/18). Support won't help since they don't support the API. If the same results still happen, I ping some folks I know in the product group.

Here is the query we use to find the connected interfaces of a node. For every connected interface we mute theses interfaces otherwise you will get alert for these as well. Remember you have to adjust your alert rules to include n_mute for nodes and I_mute for interfaces. SELECT DestNodeID, DestInterfaceID, SrcNodeID,…

You have to create the custom properties n_mute, n_muteStartTime, n_muteDiration. I also have code that will find all the connected interfaces and mute those interfaces as well, but it is a C# PowerShell module written for our instance. USE [SolarWindsOrion] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure…

This issue still exists. I ran the following script while disabling the hardware sensors to count the number of disabled sensors, you can see the number of disabled sensors increase and then when the script finishes, you can see the number of disabled sensors decrease. Running 2018.2 HF5, NCM 7.8, NPM 12.3, DPAIM 11.1.0,…

Nothing is showing in the Orion.InformationService.log

Running 12.1. I have a case open #1236672​. I checked the audited events and I see the action to disable the sensor is recorded, but nothing for the enabling action that occurs minutes later. I am going to look at the information service logs and see what I can find there. I can try upgrading to 12.2 and see if that fixes…

tdanner​ I also want to automate my job creation, doing it manually takes too long. Where can we get a reference of the SolaerWinds.NCM.Contracts.InformationService.NCMJob class. I have no idea what is expected as an input here. I am guessing it is XML like the HardwareItem class example

Is this still the case?

Thank you madhaven! So these don't show as properties in the SDK (I am using v10) for Orion.Nodes but I know these properties do exist in the database for the nodes table. How did you determine the properties name? Any idea why this is not documented?

One of the reasons we are moving to another solution. We can't wait for an API to appear someday.

It would be nice to be able to export the ranges as one spreadsheet.

The code above will need some formatting, some of the white space was removed when pasted. For example the space between function and the name of the function is missing a space.

I have 10's of thousand of hardware items that I need to disable. We use Arista and I love them, but the SPF's we are using don't provide some of the sensor values the Arista SPF's do and they show as critical events. This makes all of our Arista devices look like they are in a critical state. As anyone else would do, I…

Hey Scott, We ran into this issue a few times and I don't know the root cause, but running the V3 service as a domain account resolved the issue.

What about the ability to do this programmatically via SQL, SWQL, or the API. Doing it for hundreds of nodes is time consuming and I would prefer not to have to use discovery.

So it seems some of the information here is old as you can use domain accounts. We had 2 instances out of 3 with this issue and I am not sure where the root cause lies, but it seems to be around permissions. To fix this issue we ran the Information Service V3 using a domain account and now it works fine. I consider this a…

I personally don't unmanage devices, I do something similar to this article Re: TIPS & TRICKS: Stop the madness! Avoiding alerts but continuing to pull statistics. with the addition of Start Time and Duration in minutes. We have a Stored Procedure that will unmute the device after the time expires so we don't have to rely…

Did you follow the migration guide? Since the servername is wrong, it seems like you didn't update the tables. Please take a look at this article: Migrate SolarWinds Orion products to a new server with a new IP and hostname - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Suppo…
