Based on this deployment guide SolarWinds NTA Flow Storage database deployment options I would suggest you need to separate. The SolarWinds Scalability guide says 50k FPS per polling engine and 300k per instance, but you might find more accurate information looking in the NTA Section of Thwack.

If you don't have SQL Server 2016 SP1 or later then you will need to remain on NTA4.3.2, you can download that from your customer portal. I suspect that you can still use the NPM12.3 Installer, and when you select No to the 'Do you have an SQL2016 server?" prompt, it should then 4.3.2 instead. Not tested that theory though.

You are spot on Requirement: MS Server 2012 or later / MS SQL Server 2012 or later Recommendation: Server 2016 or later / MS SQL Server 2016 SP1 or later if you can build out a new environment with VM's that would be a cleaner approach as you can build the new environment and perform an upgrade & migration. I would…

I think hpstech was referring to what the name of the report you were trying to run, was it an out of box report, or did you create your own? If you can help show us the charts data source criteria / settings then we can try and help identify the issue.

Have you checked your user account has NCM Admin Role assigned? It isn't done automatically when you make yourself an Admin. You have to scroll to the bottom of the User Account page and expand the NCM Settings portion. Then ensure you are Administrator Role.

DirtySouth, The AP itself never exist in your system as a permanent node, only as a listing of the AP's discovered by the Controller when it is polled. This means it isn't a device you can add to a group. You can currently create alerts for Thin AP's when they are removed from the system or go offline, but they are highly…

Your more than welcome

Same here - Maybe stevenwhunt can help us out

HAHA Always with the upgrade Thanks for letting me know!

Just to expand on what cnorborg has said - if you were to deploy additional polling engines into your environment, each Polling Engine acts as a NTA Listener/Colletor - So you could, in theory, send your NetFlow to different locations based on geography. Of course, it would all eventually be sent into the NTA Database for…

Ok so firstly your existing versions are not that old so you should be able to upgrade ALL products with the latest version of the All In One Installer, which you can download from your Customer Portal. Are you keeping the same IP Address & Hostname as the existing Server or are you using new, or just temporary IP's to run…

Sorry, I misunderstood. SolarWinds have moved to the Web Reporter as the default tool now, and whilst the Report Writer is still supported (and rightly so as it still has some good use) the reports created in Web UI are not automatically copied to the Report Writer application they are stored in the SQL DB as XML - You…

Sure, add the following into any existing query that you have * n.NodeID is because I have Orion.Nodes n in the full query, you could substitute that. ,'Edit' AS [Edit], '/Orion/Nodes/NodeProperties.aspx?Nodes=' + ToString(n.NodeID) AS [_LinkFor_Edit],'/Orion/images/nodemgmt_art/icons/icon_edit.gif' as [_IconFor_Edit]

No, SolarWinds have announced that support for Windows Server 2012 and Windows SQL Server 2012 will be deprecated as of this release. That means that 12.3 is the LAST version that will support these operating systems. So if your upgrading at the moment to 12.3 you will be fine, but you would need to upgrade your OS & SQL…

If you go to Trigger Actions and for the email action select duplicate - then delete the original. Test it and see if that makes a difference. Also, check who you're sending the email to, it could just include multiple distribution groups that your part of.

Did you get this working? I have a similar experience where the Alert triggers when I unplug the test AP it changes to Unknown state, but it doesn't change to anything else. However it does clear the alert when I plug it back in so I guess I am making some progress. I did remove the RemoveDissappeared check from Advanced…
-
If you run a SIMULATE on that email action, what does it look like? That is the best way to test. That particular alert shouldn't use the word ALERT or CLEAR as the Subject should show something like: "Random Component" of Application "Random Application" on "Random Server" is in a random state ** Replace random for your…

I'm not sure it is recommended to change it, but you can change the flag directly in the Database in order to help you get DB Maintenance to complete while you investigate. In the Table called Settings - SettingID = DailyRemoveTemporaryJetFiles > Current Value = 1 UPDATE Settings SET CurrentValue = '0' WHERE SettingID =…

Can I call Jinx?

Hey ebradford yes sorry I posted that on the train in a bit of a rush so sorry for the lack of content in my response. Your example was really good - spot on. You might not need all your user edge ports fully monitored in NPM for traffic, discards etc, but you do want to keep track of where your devices are on the…

Reports respect the account limitations of the person running the report. So if you create a generic account they will only see information they have access to. Scheduled reports need an account to be specified for the schedule to select the right limitations. Charts might be harder as you’ll need to use a custom query to…

The other option recommended to me by a colleague was to use a Virtual Directory and put some sort of switch file in that directory. We use that in our clusters in order to easily take servers out of the pool for maintenance. But I'm not sure if that is a company configuration or something that is easily replicated.

Hi RaviK, If your running NPM12.3 or later then a single web server should be able to handle 25-50 concurrent USERS, tabs don't really count as they are not loading fresh data in the background, only the active tab. I guess the question might be out of your potential 100 users, are they all logged in during the same time,…

Always happy to share, do you have a specific question about HA? My general experience is that it is a functional addition to the solution, there are some rough edges and some improvements to be added (some in the pipeline already I think). It can be chatty in terms of alert noise if not properly configured and is…

It's worth checking any Firewalls as well as AntiVirus - They often cause more problems than they fix.
-
Sorry I’m not sure I understand.

When you monitor the Controller you will be able to discover all AP's associated with that controller. You could then filter your widget and associated alerts to only notify you about AP's in a specific IP range, but that is assuming the AP's in your location all have the same subnet.

nimabokhar@live.com, It would depend on your system setup, are you running NPM12.2 as that is the only version supported. Have you checked this link that gives more info? Orion Platform 2017.3 feature: PerfStack - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support Kind regards David
-
@ Yes indeed - I think @mesverrum hit the nail on the head with his reply NPM12.2 includes an update to PerfStack which gives the ability to perform real-time polling of certain stats.
