Correct me if I'm wrong, please, but an additional poller only requires 4 ports (all of which are encrypted) to communicate back to the Orion Primary Poller/Orion Database Server. At least, that is what page 555 of the SAM administrators guide says. Which my personal experience seems to support. Communication complexity…

Optional actions also do not lend to to the duration of a step. For me, optional actions do not meet the criteria for this feature request because there is no recorded error... that I can find.

It feels measurably unjust that I can't go back and answer questions I've previously answered incorrectly. Particularly since they're all based on videos that won't actually play on any of my devices. Oh well. there's always next month.

Additionally, in a highly geographically diversified network with hundreds up on hundreds of network access circuits keeping those circuits as small as you can without impacting application performance is a crucial point of minimizing your overall network cost. Netflow is a critical tool is being able to identify the…

If/Then or Case/When (if your a query person) would be BRILLIANT. When I've had to do this, I've had to invoke an external script at the time of triggering/reset that constructs the email based on the data I pass as arguments out of the alert. Of course, that is only a work around for email notifications. I doubt this is…

Would someone post the hint link for today. I'm fairly certain that I read the answer I selected on the post... Then was told I selected the wrong answer. Thanks.

"oh-dark-thirty" is commonly used in our shop to describe a change order that needs to happen late at night due to business day impact. A change order would 'be an' or 'scheduled for' "oh-dark-thirty"

As IT is viewed by CIOs and CTOs as a service department with in their businesses UX becomes increasingly more important to them as well. The satisfaction in the services we deliver to our customers (whether external or internal) is going to become part of the key success indicators we are evaluated against. We must be…

Oh man... don't forget... RTFM - Read The F'ing Manual

Does anyone else remember the term "ponytail guy" being thrown around? Way back in the day we had an upper IT manager that used to throw out in cross function meetings "I'll get my best ponytail guy on it." Maybe that was just him...

This would be particularly useful when using Active Directory Groups to be able to see individual users.

Add an: ORDER BY TimeLoggedUTC :following the where statement. This should give you what you're looking for.

Much like @mharvey we use the big boys. Our vendor management office has to vet any new or renewing IT vendor with our Technology Steering committee which looks at the future viability of a company. No "start up" has ever made it through the process.

I can't say I'm directly plugged into our storage capacity planning. I can tell you that they always seem to have more disk... however, storage capacity isn't the only metric of concern. With high random write applications like NMS, event management or heaven forbid stream management it doesn't seem there are ever enough…

I still think this a relevant improvement. Maybe even more so with NOC views and the like.

This is still functionality that appears to be needed. I have attempted to use the optional action, however, optional actions never change from an "up" status. Thus I have no way to use them in an alert.

There it is. I saw radial buttons, not check boxes. I appreciate your help stevenastem​

silverbacksays‌ has described a method we use extensively. If you're poller doesn't have access to the internet you can assign the SAM template containing your HTTP(S) monitor component to any node and hard code the URL into the component settings.

You nailed it jiri.tomek​ We had several transactions on the same player location that required interactive sessions in addition to an admin being RDP'd into the server at the time the errors were seen. Thank you again for the help!

Logically is should fire now when the Machine type is equal to exactly 'IBM PowerPC' AND the VolumeType is exactly 'Fixed Disk' AND the VolumePercentUsed is greater than or equal to '84' AND VolumePercentUsed is less than 94 AND VolumeSpace Available is less than or equal to '1073741824' (bytes). When all of those are true…

Mike Driskell I'm still working with my support technician on troubleshooting the issue. I'll be interested to see how the drop goes for you. We also use WPM in our environment.

We have been tracking some UI slowness in our environment that became more pronounced following the NPM 10.6 upgrade. What we found was very similar to what your describing with a catch. We have 5 pollers (including our primary) and an additional web engine. The Info Service v3 on all of our pollers are under 300mb. The…

Ah but when you CONCAT() an HOUR() with a MINUTE() you can end up with some interestingly incorrect times... Like "1:01 AM" which concatenates to "11" or "1:1" So I stopped doing that and just evaluated the hour and minute as two separate logic statements.

I'll see if I can't make it work with account limitations. Thanks for your help and I'll keep an eye out for when the fix comes down the pipe!

An unmanaged node/interface/volume does not poll but is still in the database as a node/interface/volume. So while it is not currently creating load on your poller it is still counted as an element(s).

Thank you for your response! I completely forgot about RDP connection limits. Do you happen to know if there is a way to tell if a specific transaction uses RDP?

HolyGuacamole has a point in that if you are circulating the information it would probably produce a more finished looking document to write it up in a report.

While they are re-validating the behavior, You can adjust the URL that the link present in the file: "HardwareHealthDetails.aspx.cs" Located at: ..\inetpub\Solarwinds\Orion\HardwareHealth\Resources You're looking for the line: const String HTMLWithView = @"<a href='">thwack.solarwinds.com/.../NodeDetails.aspx Now I merely…

Mike Driskell, thanks for the link and we'll take a look at it.
