Thanks for the vote of confidence but my role is basically SolarWinds I don't touch anything else. So I have had a lot of hours with a system that was put in and no one was using. So everything I touch at the minute I get lots of time to think about it. i basically turned alerting off if you have the confidence that lots…

the meraki is cloud based so it goes through the url. But Solarwinds put the work in i assume because of the amount of requests on a new feature request. I have read through the comments on Request for Collaboration to Integrate Stats from Nokia wireless with NPM and would totally agree with mesverrum​. If it was me i…

So have you done a sync in the vman admin settings within the Orion console?

any idea if this can be done for cloud accounts were looking to auto rotate the shared passwords as we are currently doing it manually with AWS then updating solarwinds?

Yes please all sounds good have Visio so would be perfect.

yes your right and I will be doing that. Its the cloud (host) im interested in or should I say the infrastructure team are, I assume its a very different setup than amazon or there is a license requirement stopping SolarWinds using the api's?

I got it the next day but can take upto 48 hrs

I had to use the hack after the latest release, as the gui didnt apply it. I advised Support who were forwarding to the dev team so hopefully will be fixed, wasnt sure whether it was just me or not though.

I did have another custom property regarding whether i want to monitor the drive or not, for me this should be built into the system. As dont have the option to have a default custom property (this is a feature request somewhere) used "A: True" & "B: False" to move true to the top of the list, but after mentioning this to…

nice hopefully this will get me in the good books with infra getting rid of a vm and 400gb of data. Now to look at if can do the same on storage manager.

Like it but will put more load on SAM could do with an actual fix to work via NPM. maybe this could work? Add location to the Location field for nodes monitored via ICMP - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support

it wont have an effect. If you can afford it go physical but then think about backups and what it would take to rebuild. We have main polling engine 3 addiontal polling engines and a web front end all on virtual, even the database is virtual. The systems runs quite happily issues tend to be client based browsers.…

ok so i have just had an issue with a wmi connection to a box. on the box your trying to connect run wmimgmt.msc right click on wmi control (local) and click properties. is there an error on that screen about service not started, or does it say sucessfull. if broke go to services and make sure windows remote management is…

might be worth editing the post and just make it a sharing post. We have had 10 x 49" tvs arrive today ready to be put up and I will be pulling a doc together of the whole process. As every screen will be doing Solarwinds cant wait.. pics will be included. So please keep posting noc views as will need all your help.

Hi Alex, Yep there a few hacks the main one there is i have added a folder into the below location on my main poller and additional front end and stored my own pictures. {volumestored}\InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\images\ I tried storing them external to this location but only ie worked with this method as firefox and chrome…

I was trying to monitor vpn tunnels with a universal device poller with no luck yet as i can't find the oid for it. But came across the ha status, 2 were available 1 was in standby but the other was down and no one knew about it. so added to the wall, brownie points to me!

take dns out of the situation use ip instead so try 8.8.8.8 and use port 443 i assume you can get to the internet from a web viewer (chrome,firefox or IE) on your poller. From reading, it sounds like you have a proxy in the settings of the net path there is a proxy section just add the required details

designerfx​ hi I didn't set that up and when I test it it doesn't work but if I cancel out it seems to be working??

It worked will upload next week!

Also this one talks about time zones Displayed data is obsolete message even if interface is active and no polling issue - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help an…

And you have been through this? Why is interface data obsolete?

yeah schedule a report, save to a location then point intranet to that, no need to mess with solarwinds permissions. Simple

Thats the difference between snmp get and trap. Solarwinds use snmp get to access the device and uses the mib to gather information. SNMP Trap is when a device sends out alerts like a ups going onto battery, or a tempture device getting to hot so sends an alert. The problem is its very basic, you would just have to add the…

So whats this then!!!!!? noooooo i asked about this

ticket logged #00117811

#00115892 still having issues system up but cant add or edit nodes or list resources from additonal web front end server diagnostics sent not happy

Love to know your environment, versions of software windows and SolarWinds.

Hmm, well I dont think there are permissons to the individual maps. Can you access network atlas ok and view all the maps? If so then it must be down to the individual views permissions. Edit the views and see if it has any limitations.

yep im sure thats why they went with the online badge system to allow easy connection. cal.smith​ any plans on linking exams to thwack?.
