The only other way of doing it via the UI is by performing a Network Discovery on those devices and adding in the missing interfaces. Otherwise you have to "List Resources" on the Node to discover the interfaces and select the missing ones.

If you don’t use it then you would be better off uninstalling the module

Hi alankar.srivastava best place to look would be the Orion SDK page on GitHub - Managing Custom Properties · solarwinds/OrionSDK Wiki · GitHub

Nice work, what about if your scheduled config job ignores backups where no changes are detected, so you don't see a config every day / week for example. How would you know if the config is failing as there is a config in the archive (from the last time it did work) but since then it has stopped working?

Hi Krishna, Just because you have an Admin enabled account doesn't mean it can't have account limitations applied to it. I would suggest you check your Account list and see if there are any account limitations set against your account. Also if your using AD Groups then don't forget that if you are a member of multiple…

If you VPN has CLI access and that is how you take your backups then Yes.

Interesting - If you create a dependency between the Parent and individual node as child does it work then? Is it only when it’s part of a group or just because it’s ICMP?

Hi, You might need to give a little more information. What is it exactly you want to backup?

Looks like some issues with your SQL - I'm going to assume you just want those VLAN's listed, but if you are trying to exclude those VLAN's you can change the = to != which means Does Not Equal SELECT IPAM_GroupReportView.FriendlyName, IPAM_GroupReportView.GroupId FROM IPAM_GroupReportViewWHERE( (…

You need to look at your Jobs List. From the My Dashboard goto: Configs > Jobs Then check two places: 1) Default Database and Archive Maintenance Job - Check the line - Purge configs from config archive older than X 2) Default Purge Config Jobs - Check which option you have (Default is Delete all configs EXCEPT last 30…

Hi Ken (modot) Surely if you have a dependency setup this will mean that the only time you get alerts that are NOT network related will be things that the GPS Tech need to resolve? The Dependency you have between the Switch and the GPS will suppress any alerts for the GPS if the switch is down.

If they are already monitoring the server by Agent from there own instance then 'No' as you can only have a single agent installed and it can only communicate with a singleSolarWindss instance. You could potentially monitor it via WMI or SNMP though as long as you have network connectivity.

Hi, SolarWinds will automatically purge historical data from your database based on your retention settings.

For them to work together they need to be running on the same instance of Orion. If you break off SAM for example it will install its own copy of Orion Core with its own DB.

Excellent - Thanks thebackupguru

Hi All, So I'm up and running with a few test devices - - I've noticed that if I use the Automatic Deployment then the system seems to add _xxxxx (5 random characters) to the device name in the management portal. This is also reflected in the email reports, which is very off-putting as it's not the machine hostname I…

Excited to see how the product develops in this environment, but is there any link to the existing On-Prem Orion suite? I assume the agent is totally different to the existing Orion Agent, so if we are monitoring all of our servers using this agent, will we now require an additional agent running on the machines that need…

Something like this maybe? If this looks like the sort of thing your after I can share the SQL.

What have you already tried? Can I assume you have tried restarting your Orion services? Have you checked if the Nodes are using Global Values and if so are they correct or could the password have been changed?

Can you not change this from within the Poller Studio inside Orion UI? Settings > All Settings > Manage Pollers ?

The fact that you have a tick box to "Enable Left Navigation" should mean that the code exists to remove that panel from specific views if required. That way we don't have to revoke access from our user accounts or admin accounts. Optionally add it to the Menu Bar so that it's always at the top of the screen.

Do you always want to see the same Information just using the specific NodeID? I’m on the train at the moment so maybe I misread but my initial thoughts would be to create a custom query table where they search the Node etc but in the query you add a LinkFor URL for a custom view, which means the results will present a…

The Polling Engine page does give you this information, it is above the Polling Rate % and just below the IP Address and Polling Completion.

In order to view information about more than one specific element you need to start with a summary page. Then if you apply a View Limitation to the page to only show the list of elements you want displayed.

Just to clarify, you want an alert when the node is Up? If so then this is a fairly simple reverse of the default Node is down alert but you change the status = to Up, you can filter by custom property or selected nodes in the alert trigger screen. To disable the down node alert simply go into your alert manager and…

Hi Kevin, Can I assume you are monitoring the WAN Router and it's Interface via NPM, and as such the Interface Description is something along the lines of G1/0/1 - MyCustomer Link Circuit 123456 Blah Blah. (If you have an example that would be great). So you would like a report that shows: Router - Interface - AVG…

SolarWinds Network Configuration Manager has an in-built feature called Config Archive, which in addition to backing your config to the SQL DB, it also creates a physical copy of your config and places it (by default) on your local Orion server. However, you can send it to a network location which is then backed up on a…

Have you got a screenshot of the actual error your getting on the screen, this file isn't giving much to go on.

LEM (Log and Event Manager) is the name of the SolarWinds SIEM (Security Information & Event Management) Tool.

I would start with something along the lines of: Then you can set the system to email you with the Node Name. This is, of course, going to alert on ANY Node that doesn't have the CP Set, so it could be a little bit of a spam initially if the CP doesn't exist in most of your estate.
