I'm getting a whole slue of Fault Bucket, type 0 failures for WindowsUpdateFailure. The ACL is set to everyone having read access. I'm unsure about the router but it shouldn't have been changed recently.

I believe you can use the Set-SwisObject command to set the engineID to what you need it changed to for the nodes. You can see how this command is used in PowerShell · solarwinds/OrionSDK Wiki · GitHub as well as a SQL example to show that changing the ID is the only thing you'd need to do at Change nodes polling engine ID…

The historical information will be deleted upon the next run of the db maintenance task.

You should be able to uninstall the job engine, collector, and Information service at any time. If you uninstall the job engine and reinstall it you'll get your blank sdf files back plus everything else. Just run the MSI to uninstall/reinstall.

So I've found out the above script but now I'm being asked if it can put the information into the Message Center. So my question is can Alert Manager or the Alert Engine pass a variable to an external script much like SAM? I'm thinking no but could I get a confirmation?

Is there a fix for this limitation slated for a future release? Just out of curiosity.

There is an snmpwalk tool in the installation directory of Orion. It's called SNMPWalk.exe. From there you can input the SNMP version and community name. It's not as nice as the toolset but if you can't get it working you can always use the ugle one . This will attempt to grab any and all information from the agent it can…

Have you tried doing an SNMP walk against the OpenManage agent? I'm wondering if you can find an OID that would correspond to these stats which could be pulled in using a UnDP resource.

You can select a large portion of the nodes in node management and select edit. If they all have something in common this will be easy to filter. If there is nothing in common with these nodes then you could create a custom property to assign temporarily to the nodes you want to change to snmp. Then group by the custom…

Here is a screenshot of our licensing situation: The bottom license is a trial of the BU and the top is for ComVault. Interesting related note is that we have just experienced a license issue where we are not able to add more disks to the profiler. Have a 10,000 disk license and only using 8119. Maybe it's related to the…

I will be opening a tech support case today. I've finally got some spare time for this to happen in the afternoon.

Thanks David! One question, will I be able to just rerun the upgrade package to reconfigure Patch Manager or will I need the full install package?

Than you antwesor for your help. We do not use a proxy server in our organization. Also Patch Manager is not configured for one either. I did see the automatically detect proxy settings enabled in internet explorer so I disabled it in case it was having some sort of effect on PM. The error message displayed is "Unable to…

Hello wingnut144, You can certainly push updates to a single machine as well as new installs. You will need to install the wmi provider to that machine to be able to push the updates and installs on demand. Make sure you don't have any certificate issues or duplicate SUS IDs as this will cause issues installing custom…

HolyGuacamole I am testing the script on the main poller through the PowerShell console. If I browse the CIM_LogicalDisk class I do see the drive but when adding the perf counter in SAM I beleive it's using the Win32_LogicalDisk counter which doesn't show the drive. aLTeReGo I don't have access to that server in a way I'd…

This update can be focibly installed using the update management wizard action. This will tell all machines to download and install any needed updates. This is of course if the machine has reported in and decided that it does need this particular update. To target a specific group you can select them from the left tree…

Do you want the output into a text file? I put > c:\test.txt and it produced a text file in that directory.

Hah! it turns out my lab is just a bit slow and it has a SWIS service error that's keeping a few of the resources from rendering. Though there is a new issue along the same line of this original problem. I've put in my code to skip the snmp status and response time pollers as I don't want SNMP selected in the list…

Ah that's good to know. Looks like since it's only a few servers we are going to just install the WMI providers on them and call it good. Thought I suspect this will crop up again in the future.

We do have the WMI providers being automatically deployed but checked the settings to be sure. We can access fileshare on the machines and varified that the admin$ share is present. This is happening over a handful of machines with different versions of Windows install on them, one being windows 2000 server. What would you…

Is there a way to remove the navigation and left hand navigation from the print screen? Something akin to the old &printable=true option? Just printing to PDF isn't as clean looking when doing this to views as opposed to reports.

Not sure if this is supported but you could try to use a symlink to make the folder look like it's local to the system but have it point to another location.

I'd like to give an update. I've got my automatic discovery script working with static IPs in the xml document. I have the script waiting around for the discovery job to complete and the discovery job will then auto import all nodes found along with all interfaces and will also enable hardware health monitoring. I then…

Also when running my discoveries and setting autoimport to true it's pulling in all interfaces even though I haven't specified those columns to be true. That and the retry interval in miliseconds isn't being read and is defaulting to 1 milisecond. Final note is that when I run the discovery it will also import the node but…

I've found the framework for the discovery request in the SWQL studio but I'm not sure how to work with it. I'm seeing tags like <BulkList /> and I'm not familiar with them. Below is what I'm getting as output and would like to know a little more about the <something /> tags I'm seeing. I've not worked with XML much but a…

Can setting the IsAutoImport section to true make the discovery import all results after it's completed? If so then this is fantastic as I won't have to pull in the Discovered Nodes and Discovered Interfaces and add them all in using more scripting.

I've created a case for this, Case 492909, and I'll update with responses from support.

Looks like it needs to be present in the install path\orion folder. Pretty slick though it will not import a view if it's the same name.

Is this report begin exported from the report writer? It should ask you where to save the produced file once you select export to PDF. If you're doing this from the web interface and using the print button you'll have to append &DataFormat=PDF. Though from here you could just export it as an .xls or .csv.

Got the answer from tech support. I'll post it here so it'll help others. The certificates have to go into the Trusted Root Certificate Authorities and Trusted Publishers stores under the computer account. This means you have to open mmc and add the certificates snapin. Select Computer Account and then the machine (for me…
