I'd recommend reposting this question here: Network Performance Monitor Feature Requests

So do you want to alert on this custom poller based on the value of this or do you want to just add this value in the alert e-mail that gets sent out? If you're wanting to alert, in 11.5, you can do this using the web alert creation tool. You don't need a SQL query to pull it. Just observe the options for Custom Pollers,…

Two options: 1. Use "snmp-server enable trap hsrp" on a cisco device to enable SNMP trap delivery for state changes of HSRP. Make sure your SNMP configurations can send traps to SWinds (too much to explain, but I expect this is already done). HSRP MIB - Cisco Then configure a Trap Viewer rule to e-mail you when you receive…

Have you already resolved this? I see this occurred at least 2 days ago, always a possibility that you've figured it out already. Otherwise, what version of NPM are you running - 11.0 or 11.5+? If you still have the Advanced Alert Manager application on the server, you can manage your alerts from there - just have to…

10.10.10.110:8080... Did you set the web console specifically for this port (8080)? This could explain why you get an error 503. Try it without specifying a port, and see if you have better luck. Also, I usually get the endpoint silence problem when a service or services on the Orion server are stopped or hung. I'd…

Sounds like it's sending traps to solarwinds, but SWinds doesn't know what to do with it because you don't have it set as a node. If you check your trap viewer, or trap history in the DB, you might be able to find the OID or MIB this is coming from and set up rules on how to process it. That might help(?).

I use SecureCRT to login to a Linux machine that we use as a management jump box. From there, I have configured CLOGIN, an automated login tool for SSH devices. With CLOGIN, all I have to know is hostnames/IP's of devices, and CLOGIN saves my credentials. It also has functionality that can allow you to automate the…

This is a known good SNMPv3 configuration. I don't know why you want to use DES56, but I'm sure you know where to make that change in the below if it is a requirement. the "access #" portions can be excluded if you don't have an ACL to isolate your management sources. snmp-server group default_group v3 priv read read_all…

To be perfectly honest, this list is going to be short. There's enough flexibility to the Orion platform where you can do pretty much anything you want if you have the time/patience/knowledge to do it. At this point, most of what SolarWinds can't do is either subtle or cosmetic.If you want, check the Feature Requests pages…

Have you tried doubling up your parentheses around the sub-query? I could be completely wrong at this (still very new at SQL) but it looks like your argument for your IN statement is (sub-query), and IN is looking for a list of values. The sub-query is supposed to populate these values, so shouldn't it be IN ((sub-query)),…

We use MPLS circuits at all of our sites and have a single instance of NPM. You should be fine. I'd recommend installing a VM with a trial version of NPM, that way, if for some reason your install doesn't work as intended, you can just delete the VM and be done with it. I expect you won't have any problems, though.

Under the "Controller" Tab, select "Interfaces" on the left. One of the items displayed should say "Management" and be untagged. This should be the IP to use.

I've had to delete and rediscover nodes when I change their hostnames. =( If you find another method, let us know!

I'm still on NPM 11.0.1, so not sure if this is going to work for the version you are running. There's a resource you can add to the wireless controller page called "List of Thin Access Points" that should display the count of clients associated to each AP, the AP's names, their active channels and IP address. If you…

Semper Fi. Can you take a couple screenshots of your alerts in alert manager? We'll need to know more about the rule to determine what the cause is. Off the top of my head, you could have a Trigger Condition that excludes all possible nodes, an Alert Suppression rule that filters out all possible nodes, or a Trigger Action…

There's a SQL table in 11.0.1 (possibly the same in 11.5) called AlertStatus, with a column "Notes" that includes the input from this window. With some SQL prowess, you can add this. Are you using a canned report for monthly availability or a custom one? Oh, and is it a web report or from the Report Writer app on the…

Assuming you are using 11.0 or older, you can build a custom SQL report in the Report Writer on the server. Just select "Advanced SQL" when you are creating a new report and throw the below query in. To test this, you should be able to access your Database Manager application on the server, and this should return an…

Although I'm not entirely sure this would answer your question: Add MIBs to the SolarWinds MIB database - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support It all depends on whether you're looking for 'the latest version of the MIB database to determine if it has Viptela MIBs' or 'the first MIB database that contained the…

The NPM SLX license is "unlimited" because you don't have to purchase this licensing individually for each APE you deploy. For instance, your one NPM SLX license should work for 1 NPM Server + 9 APE's, without you having to buy (and annually renew) 10 SLX licenses. The "unlimited" is not talking about the performance of…

If you walk the controller, you might see some of the other ones that might work for you. You might stumble across SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.10.1 (1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.10.1). This will return the IOS version you are currently running on the WLC. [dhanson@s-tx-nettools ~]$ snmpwalk -v 3 -u snmp_user -l AuthPriv -a SHA…

Caps lock aside, are you looking for a report that tells you all the possible alerts for each node? or all alerts that can trigger on any node? When you say "message", which one do you want? The Alert Description, or what the trigger action writes out to the Event Log or to an e-mail? When you specify alerts that are…

In your initial query, you have the rate within single quotations. You might need to remove these, as it tends to look at items within single quotations as strings rather than values. e.g. It might think 9 is a string like a word, instead of a number. This is good for the CustomPollerAssignmentID, but not the rate. Once…

why not define both of your queries as CTE's and then do a JOIN on IP Address? Do you get a crazy result?

If you select "Other" from that column, does it give you a separate field to enter something else, or does it just look for "Other"? If you want to use SQL to define the trigger, you can try this, and tweak as necessary. SELECT n.Caption, cps.Status FROM Nodes AS nJOIN CustomPollerAssignment AS cpa ON n.NodeID =…

Is "changes" a viable option instead of "is not equal to"? Otherwise, I'm pretty sure you don't have to use the drop down....but then again, I'm still on 11.0.1.

A lot of this depends on what you want to "not all" on. For instance, if you want wireless + site name, you could always do: Trigger alert when all of the following apply: Node is equal to down Wireless is equal to yes Trigger alert when any of the following apply: Name contains ctx0 Name contains Houston Name contains…

Why not just add it to your select statement and reference a table that includes your device's host name? This is what your script should look like. I've bolded the differences: SELECT c.UniqueName AS [Poller Name], s.Status AS [Current Status], ToLocal(s.DateTime) AS [Last Polled], n.Caption AS [Node Name] FROM…

1. Why is our web interface performance so bad? There are a ton of reasons for poor web interface performance, here are a couple of the big ones: - Your database's performance. You're using 2005, so first I'd suggest upgrading your DB to one of the newer windows SQL version, 2008 or 2012(recommended), then check the…

http://www.solarwinds.com/products/pricing/ http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/Orion/docs/ScalabilityEngineGuidelines.pdf SL2000 limits you to 2000 elements, where SLX is "unlimited" elements. The "unlimited" comes from the fact that you don't have to purchase this licensing individually for each APE you run.…

Have you recently moved to https? Is it attempting to send the report but giving you a "failed to retrieve url" error in the e-mail it sends?
