  • I did this and going back I think all I did was create the gradient and name it "headerGradient.jpg" and overwrote the same image located in C:\Inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\images. I did this a while back, so I think that's all I had to do. Worth a shot. Daniel
  • I do not think queries work within trap triggered actions. It looks like you can only pull variables from the info that gets stored in the Traps table. ie the Trap triggers don't directly access the Nodes table. I can't get the SQL function call to work... you might be able to get it worked out if there was a SQL function.…
  • I'm glad to see some had a smooth upgrade. I suppose I'm just unlucky. Everything is looking a lot better. The APM folder was still located in my website directory for some reason. After I deleted it my links started working correctly again. Thanks for all the input. One thing I found was that I'm unable to edit existing…
  • I went to upgrade Orion again thinking it's been long enough for all the issues to blow over. I'm sorry to report that they have not. The main problem this time is all my maps are completely screwed up. First problem was all the linkes I manually assigned pointing to views I created on the website no longer work. I suppose…
  • I saw the same thing. At the time I had assumed it had something to do with the error messages I was seeing when I ran the configuration wizard (can't note them now). 
  • I have a few cases opened. I'm going to be downgrading back to 9.1 soon, but if there are certain logs or diagnostics I can gather to submit to help resolve these issues I'm having for a service pack or something I can provide them. I just need to know what Is required.
  • Support tracked down what was causing the problem. It does appear to be a bug. The case number is 118809.
  • DirectLink was what I was looking for. Thanks.
  • I thought I read somewhere that unless you share what you create with the Google APIs with the general public, it costs like $10,000 to use internally. Not sure where I remember reading that though haha.
  • Support told me it had something to do with IIS not having access to my inetpub folder. This is probably due to my initial failure and subsequent bump to 9.0. But all is resolved. Support was awesome.
  • Features Domain or Orion authentication No app authentication is required. Authentication by browser per session is an option. Option to use SSL if using Domain or Orion authentication * SSL is recommended because login parameters are being passed in the URL. Button assignments Add, rename, modify function of buttons. This…
  • Indeed. And I do maintain that it was mostly my fault for neglecting the save button after about an hour of work. I was running Network Atlas from my laptop. I'm running Windows 7 Pro. It crashed when I went to change a label font to 8. I'm unable to recreate the crash at this time. Went to look for a set of logs to check…
  • Combination of misconfiguration in polling settings and user error. Ended up with 6 months of per minute statistics and the database was growing too large. Attempted to change NPM to keep only a week of 1 minute resolution, but the summarization wouldn't complete. I guess it was just too much info to process and summarize.…
    in NPM for NES Comment by dhardy March 2011
  • Nevermind I figured it out. Don't know why, but all of those alerts were dated 2008.. I went into the databse and deleted all of those alerts.
  • Are you just having Orion run an external program pointing to a batch file that executes that command. I was trying to do that, but my ${NodeName} ect. don't populate with the value. What step am I missing here?
  • I need to improve upon my searching skills. I must be using all the wrong words when I search haha.
  • I've found it's better to use ip flow ingress on individual interfaces only when you don't want to see all the traffic going in or out of the interface. That is, you're only interested in specific subinterfaces. If you want to see all data in or out on an interface for all subinterface I suggest using ip route-cache flow…
  • Similar issues here. I haven't yet tried migrating to 9.5 since the last time I tried a couple months ago. I have 9.5 installed in the hot standby version on a second server in an attempt to work out the kinks. 9.5 with the latest SPs seems to work well.. a lot better than it did when I first attempted the install. A lot…
  • Well I'm jealous. I'm kind of dissapointed it didn't work out for me the first go round. I have to go through and note all the customizations I've done, and update them to be compatible with the upgrade. I too was impressed by the map maker... not sure why it kept crashing on me. I hope to get around to cranking up 9.5…
  • That's my error. I didn't even notice those.
  • Select '<a href=hxxp://xxxxxx/NetPerfMon/Report.asp?Report=Core+Routers+Inventory>Core Routers</a>', (SELECT Count (*) AS Count FROM Nodes WHERE ( (Nodes.Category = 'Core Router') AND ( Nodes.Status <> '9') ) ) Union Select '<a href=hxxp://xxxxxx/NetPerfMon/Report.asp?Report=Substation+Routers>Substation Routers</a>',…
  • The weird thing is that it doesn't happen on every view. One thing I notice in particular to the views that disconnect from the maps I've assigned to them is that any time I go to edit the network map on these views the map selected in the menu is always the first one in the list and not the current map selected. Whereas,…
  • Polling interval = 60 seconds This problem just started and apparently only exists on this interface. Database size = 2.1GB Version = 8.5 # of interfaces monitored = 420 w/ 386 nodes.
  • I can't find any indication that there are failures at a read level as indicated by the "Cannot load..." error. Something interesting to note is that on occasion that "Cannot load..." error appears on a refresh and goes away upon next refresh. It almost resembles a timing issue in that at times there is a delay and errors…
  • Well nothing actually happens to the node in the database. The node is still there and should still be polled. After a few refreshes the map usually corrects itself by showing the status once again. It's always just the nodes though, because links to maps still show up green.
  • Thanks for that. I appreciate it. The alert criteria is very simple. Category is equal to (Node1 Category) Node Status is equal to Down Obviously that triggers everytime a Node in said category goes down. I just don't see how it's possible to trigger an alert based on the the status of a group of 2 nodes, when their are…
  • It's been a while. Not sense I've installed Orion hot standby and not post 9.5.1 upgrade. I'm assuming this has something to do with the SQL mirroring, but I'm not sure.
  • This worked for me. It's not pretty, but it works perfectly: Local Contact 1: ${SQL:SELECT First_Name FROM Contacts inner join Nodes on Contacts.Company = Nodes.Coop WHERE Contacts.Company = '${Nodes.Coop}' and Contacts.Contact_Num = '1'} ${SQL:SELECT Last_Name FROM Contacts inner join Nodes on Contacts.Company =…
  • What am I evaluating? I've purchased NPM.
  • Uploaded a version to try to content exchange.
