  • I'm looking to add https monitors - did you ever find answer to your question? ellen.
  • I would say no for EOBC, Null0 and Unrouted VLANs. You may want to monitor CPP for your large chassis's (mostly would apply to ISPs) for a period of time to see if there is anything potentially affecting the control plane. We created a custom poller to monitor the backplane on our 6500's - we find this more beneficial than…
  • Same issue with charts - 1 single spike - which in our case is due to Daylight Savings time, which results in 2hrs worth of data collection compressed into a single hour. Results in long range charts, ie: > 3months, alters scale and affects readability of chart. It would be really nice if NPM offered ability to "Ignore…
  • Kudos on adding multiple interface chart. Please move yellow down the list - ie: suggest removing YELLOW completely as possible interface color. Grey would be better. PLEASE.
  • Hi Zach, i've had the same annoyance. The means I use to achieve this is via the "custom property editor" on the console/server. Select "Nodes" table. Then select "No Active Filter" build filter - to select ALL nodes that match (ie: Records where CITY is empty) would pick up all nodes with Unknown city. Once results are…
  • H3C 12K Chassis 1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.11.1.111
  • Greetings Jiri, Here is snapshot of our current IOS level of our Nexus 7000s. We are not successful yet in getting UDT to discover. No issue with all other cisco platforms we have (6500 etc). Software BIOS: version 3.17.0 kickstart: version 5.2(3a) system: version 5.2(3a) You mentioned that after some config changes you…
  • Experiencing same issue. Have run repair on Add'l web console, including repair on modules (IPSLA, NETflow). I recall all was fine until Netflow was added to the Add'l Web console. I will remove Netflow. In meantime - was any progress or root cause found for this error. We seem to get it when we select "IP SLA" tab on…
  • Greetings AHooks, Curious to know if you are still using Full recovery or if you've implemented Simple recovery now. We have been using Full recovery, only because we have inhouse DBA team and they said company standards are Full recovery. I would never restore up to a point in time using txns logs, only restore back to…
  • Dear Spudnet, I truly sympathize with your recent pains. I have had some negative experiences so I can relate. I can honestly summarize our overall experience with the products and support to be more positive and successful. Hindsight is 20-20. Many of my own Orion issues/grief could have been avoided if: 1) I made sure…
  • Experiencing same issue. Error can occur for any view, happening on both main engine web server and our additional web server. Started after we upgraded from NPM 11.0.2 to 11.5.2. I have opened a support ticket # 827791. Have tried remedy offered by LadaVarga‌ here: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. it…
  • Looking for same functionality. I notice no response posted. Have you had any success with web-based reporting for IP SLA operations ?
  • Greetings Mike, We too had exact same problem and I had opened a ticket. Our resolution, which has completely solved our problem is to perform the following on a monthly basis. Maintaining wireless related details with the same data retention as all other NPM data retention just didn't make sense to us due to impact to…
  • Hi William, I was looking to do very same, and just figured it out. thought I would share in case this is still outstanding for you. In Group View, customize view, and add resource 'multiple object chart', Object type: 'interface' Then when you select chart, also select: Automatically display interfaces related to the…
  • Had same issue. The syslog daemon was fine, only the kiwi web server not working. On our kiwi server I did the following: Open UltiDev Web Server explorer, and deleted all references to kiwi web server. Then exit UltiDev, and uninstall it, using "Uninstall UltiDev Web Server Pro". Then rerun the kiwi install kit. If you…
  • I see this is an old posting, but looks like its still an issue. Our statistics show double for the 1 hr overlap (time rolled back 1hr - and stats re-collected and added). Huge spike as this is also backup window for large backups. Management is asking if i can correct this anomoly for our major interfaces.
  • Physical servers with dedicated networks ports are rapidly becoming a thing of the past. On a daily basis our organization is virtualizing its physical servers. This is making network services job of providing feedback/performance monitoring very difficult. Any and all visibility, performance reporting that Orion can do…
  • This proposal of using a custom field ie: CONTACT for the affected node, is that if you want to alter CONTACT based on WHO is oncall, then you need to update/edit CONTACT field for ALL nodes - this method just doesn't scale for folks with hundreds / thousands of nodes. Another thwack thread comes close, but still misses…
  • DTango2010, Any success in monitoring H3C gear ? We are replacing or installing H3C 12K chassis, in place of where we previously would have installed Cisco 6500 chassis. This is becoming a very hot issue for us. If you can share any success with monitoring environmentals on these chassis, it would be greatly appreciated.…
  • Experiencing exact issue. Just installed NPM 9.1 SP4 - after install - Attempts to run System Manager says it can't connect to "orion server name". I was about to follow advice offered and rerun config wizard, and I thought to check the Orion Service Manager - "SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor" was stopped - just had…
  • Zizi, If you have h3c gear and want to see improved h/w monitoring in NPM, please vote up this feature request. http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2647 ellen.
  • Are you asking who is uses Cisco CNR (dhcp) product or who uses DHCP process on cisco router ? Based on responses you were getting so far I'm assuming the latter. We have 4 clusters of Cisco CNR. Used to manage ip address space (dhcp) for desktops, voip, wifi etc. Our CNR is running on Solaris. If I can be of assistance…
  • Hi Vpbcarder, Have you upgraded to SAM 6.0 yet ? We recently upgraded SAM 5.0.1 -> 5.5 (in order to be able to upgrade to NPM 10.6). Our SAM upgrade took 8hrs to run (with Orion completely down, no polling, no web server access). We do have considerably large tables, our database is 130GB, with APMHardware tables being…
  • There are many variables to consider when planning your h/w decisions for Orion implementation. Our implementation is a mix of physical and virtual servers, with current plans to migrate even more to Virtual. I shall explain why. Main engine, is physical 48gb memory, 10cpu. SQL is dedicated physical, 96GB memory/8cpu. We…
  • We had similiar issue. One of our additional pollers was no longer sync'ing, however SNMP statistics continued to be gathered for the nodes managed by this poller - this seemed odd, however ICMP data (response time, latency) were no being collected. I'm curious if the data you see as still being collected is the SNMP or…
