Since the duplex setting is not a pollable value, you would likely have to rely on catching it via syslog or trap and writing an alert in your syslog manager to send an e-mail (or whatever) when a syslog is received with DUPLEX in it. You can get a bit more specific by setting severities, etc... but I think that's your…

*bump* Simple clarification of the above - simply want a link to another map which DOESN'T relfect the status of said linked map...this seems pretty straightforward, but I can't find any options to link to a map and not reflect the linked map status. Anyone? Bueller...bueller?

You might need to elaborate a bit on this one... If I read this correctly, if the primary link is up then the device would NOT appear in the 'Nodes Not Up' (ie. Nodes Down), so there would be nothing to exclude? Also, if you're showing a summary view for Nodes, I'm not sure you can filter by Interface as they are two…

Well, I would assume at the very least you are going to need to supply a Vendor. (ie. APC, Liebert, etc) and then you'll likely need to find the MIB file supplied by the vendor for that particular PDU which describes if & where they publish this particular info. Once you get the MIB location OID, you can build a custom…

Yep. You need to use an advanced SQL Query to get your variables since the basic selection doesn't allow you to select multiple custom poller variables in the alert. Substitute your custom poller name for "Assignment.AssignmentName like 'xxxx' in each statement. You might have to check the actual database to see if the…

Ugh - same problem here. Just noticed all my graphs ended 60 days ago, so I've lost close to a year of historical forecasting data. I KNOW I set my retention to 1024 days at one point, but don't recall when it stopped retaining data, thus slim possibility of finding an appropriate backup. :-/

Make sure you have the Windows Trap Receiver service running... the Orion Trap receiver uses this built in windows service to actually receive the traps. Otherwise, they fall on deaf ears.

I'm sure this has been mentioned before as well and I think this could be a quick addition which would increase the functionality by a long shot. Have the ability to search for a string in a configuration, and then perform an action against the returned list of devices. For example, I want to update an ACL95 on my routers,…

Just about to fire a ticket off on that one.. Thanks for the tip! Fixed me right up.

I've managed to do this with the alerting engine using SQL commands in the output text, but also have the same problem with my microwave radios reporting RSL levels in units*10... I can report the correct value in an alert, but my graphs of my receive levels report -500 instead of -50.0db. Since solarwinds simply graphs…

Interesting. I checked my Advanced Alert editor and I get a drop down list for both Interface Name & Interface Alias, but I get a free text box for Interface Caption and Full Name. In my experience, trying to check off individual interfaces in Advanced Alert editor is a bit tedious. If you are relatively consistent with…

I would also be interested in this, as recently it was posted you can include a custom HTML resource on the Orion homepage that can display a webpage. I would love to have the IP Monitor Dashboard displayed on the Orion homepage, however I would need to pass login credentials via the http request header to do this…

Same issue here. Check out the NotePage application which is integrated into the Orion product (sort of). When our FW dies, our e-mails die. Thus, for my FW alerts, I use NotePage to send a manual page (read : modem) to a pager. Many providers have direct interfaces into which you can transmit non e-mail SMS messages via…
