We LOVE our VMAN! Bill

Yes you can using the net-snmp on Solaris and there are SAM application templates for Solaris stuff. We're monitoring Solaris 10 and 11 with NPM and SAM. The basic stuff is response time, packet loss, CPU, Memory, network latency and packet loss, all your disk volumes. With SAM you can add kinds of things and can monitor…

I'd search for events with info that matches the IPS and any parts of the event that was flagged to look for other related information. The nDepth search is pretty powerful once you learn a little about how it works but even freefrom text just typed in with some names or IP's can find a LOT. Bill

I'm running 2020.2.1 and next to compatibility in vCenter it says ESXi 5.0 and later VM Version 8 is that what you mean? I know VMware is on 15 now.

I can't be the only person using two factor authentication with PKI and tokens right? Bill

There has to be more users than me that want SEM to work with CAC or PKI tokens? We can't find any documentation that explains how to get it to work? We want 2 factor SEM! Bill

I almost commented about SEM 2020.2.1 without thinking until I read a little closer! I used to know the products by the version numbers. Bill

This looks great! Does this mean we can customize connectors? We've had an issue: Is there a way to add or remove specific event IDs from being collected? We need “307” to be audited which is print logs. I’ve tried everything and these events will not send to SEM despite showing up on the local host event log. Bill

This is great... really should be an option in the Orion interface though perhaps! Bill

When walking around the MIB on these infoblox I found that using the old UnDP tool actually helped because I could just click around the OID's after I found the main area for the InfoBlox MIB I was interested in. Once you can figure out the OID's it's pretty easy. This is how I made many of my UnDP's. Bill

Interesting... reminds me a LOT of the new SEM dashboards thanks to the UX team Ashley and others!

If you know the MIB OID's your looking for then you could create a Universal Device Poller that will show the status under node details for the node.

If you rediscover the node does this still stay this way? Click on rediscover under node details for then node then list the resources and make sure only the current disks are selected. This can also be automated but you can test it this way.

SEM isn't a malware prevention software... it's a SIEM. It's made to take and correlate all of your security event sources and make sense of all the data. If you have SEP, McAfee, or other software SEM can monitor the status of the nodes by using it's connectors to log data about all of these connectors. It can correlate…

Some places cameras just aren't allowed.

We added some stuff for VPN usage 4 sure... needed to count how many people where working from home during the day.

There's a downtime with duration report writer report I used to use all the time on NPM. I'm not sure where it is off the top of my head either though. I really liked it too.

I'm happy to report that it looks like SW is on board with working with us to resolve the licensing issues. This is a big step in the right direction towards getting more people to use SEM for compliance. It's a tool that makes it easier to cover the 800-53 security controls and help to demonstrate you're doing what's…

You mean like when your windows C drive fills up and crashes the entire OS VM?

Thanks byron... you've always come through in the past :} This is helping me already with my NetApp jungle...

What does this add?

This is very important for many Federal, Military, and Defense industry users. We're a bigger user base than some realize I think sometimes.

I really hope this is still going to work ok with offline installations. Many... actually most of mine can't connect back to SolarWinds at all. Bill

Can't show my netpaths but I do love it... sometimes I load client on workstations and use it help troubleshoot client access problems using it as netpath source. Bill

aLTeReGo ! The SAM man!

Is it the hits on the access list that you want to see?

Dang Will you're getting to be the SWQL man!

I'm still using my Raspberry Pi from thwack!

This is good stuff wluther​ I always get some of this kind of thing from KMSigma​ too! I like to see the SWQL.

The webpage coming up faster all by itself is a huge improvement... sometimes it seems like the VM is asleep or something. Bill
