  • Brilliant!, Malik! This should be part of the Orion Server Migration Guide. I did run into 1 snag after waiting a long time for the screen to refresh after select a few hundred devices - everything has to use the same polling method: "To enable the Change Polling Method feature, you must be using the same Polling Method…
  • The SQL commands are documented in the SAM manuals, V6.2.x-6.2.4. This local Administrator membership requirement is missing from all versions of the manual, including the latest V6.2.4 manual.
  • Are you able to do manual IP SLA setup and then discover it with VNQM on IOS XE and 4500x? '
  • We're just beginning to use the vulnerability feature because of the growth in Cisco bulletins. To hear that it might end when NIST moves to JSON is a concern here. JSON feeds are available now. I would also ask that NCM support CVSS 3.0, since that is now Cisco's default, but I think that also requires the JSON feed. The…
  • I always think oft Stig from The Beatles Parody/tribute band, The Rutles. But I'm happily senile. The Rutles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Stig is the guy in the 2nd row of photos from the top on this vid: The Rutles - A Hard Day's Rut - Full Album (Part 1) - YouTube But there are rumors that he's dead: Stig is dead -…

  • I'm really concerned about the SQL 2016 dependency for NTA 4.4. I've observed that we can no longer bypass module upgrades in order to get just the one upgrade we want, because the new install logic upgrades everything no matter what. So it looks to me like we need a calendar showing planned release dates of all SolarWinds…
  • There is a federal OMB mandate to have IPv6 to the desktop by the end of September of this year. Actual goals vary by agency, I believe, but we're making forward progress in our bureau already. Already, most agencies are supposed to have basic HTTP servers that don't require authentication talking IPv6. SolarWinds IPAM…
  • Indeed. Way past time for this. IPV6 is mandatory on some subnets and internet facing on federal sites.
  • Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but this is still a problem in 2013 with NPM V10.5. The Configuration Wizard cannot handle HTTPS, FQDN, and SSL settings. If you tell it to use port 443, it creates a new primary Website ID in dbo.Websites with just the hostname, port 443, and SSLenabled set to 0. You can edit this in SQL…
  • I had a similar error until I clicked the CONFIGURE SERVER button: I think it all depends on the flow of how the monitor was added. If you started with a brand new device that was not in SAM or NPM, the wizard and documentation looks different: Configure AppInsight for IIS on nodes But once it's added to either NPM or SAM,…
  • I know this is an old post, but I'm also seeing problems with 2018 data. We have 3 separate installs of NCM, and no two have the same NCM_VulnerabilitiesAnnouncements tables for any year, except 2001-2007, 2009 and 2010. The only XMLs we are downloading nightly are:…
  • My advice - install .NET 4.5.2 It's a long, sad story. We were asked to upgrade our .NET from 4.5 to 4.6 by the security team on our Orion servers because .NET 4.5.0 and 4.5.1 were EOL as of January, 2016. But I ran into problems due to misunderstandings on my part about what "upgrade" means. As some of you may know, you…
  • You don't mention what sort of IP SLA operation you are attempting. I haven't even tried to do IP SLA to our Nexus yet, but I do know that if you are using VNQM to push the config, it may not work for some operation types on some platforms - even on IOS. So you may need to do a manual config on Nexus, and then discover it…
  • I opened a case on this, and SW engineer, Jeremy, gave me a simple fix. Go to Settings > Manage Accounts - Edit the account you are using - Scroll down - Click the + to expand Voip and Network Quality Manager settings - Check the settings for IP SLA Operations Summary View - Set it to "default" - Click Submit - Re-test I…
  • On one of my servers, it looks ok - ICMP Path Echo web page is indeed ICMP Path Echo, and ICMP Path Jitter web page is ICMP Path Jitter. On another Orion install, the ICMP Path Echo web page has a web page title (that shows up on the FFox tab) that says IP SLA UDP Jitter, the text in the web page says ICMP Path Echo…
  • As reemap says, if your goal is to monitor Skype servers themselves, you need to do it with something other than VNQM, like SAM (which used to be called APM): Skype for Business in SAM sdonovan has this post: Skype for Business 2015 (Front-End Role) When you setup an IP SLA jitter operation on VNQM, it actually configures…
  • I'd like to say that the problem does exist with non-XP agents, too. But see also: NetPath not polling The problem is not just with Agents, but with the Plugins for the Agents. Deleting the Agent, and then re-deploying does not restore the Plugins. When I recently deleted and re-deployed an agent for use with NetPath and…
  • People have been asking for this for years: Re: Support for Citrix Xenserver I imagine it's probably a complex sort of device to add. But XenServer is an enterprise class product, and deserves some love, IMO. Also see and bump this feature request:
  • I went from Orion Platform 2017.1.1 SP1, VIM 7.1.0, VNQM 4.4.0, DPAIM 11.0.0, NPM 12.1, QoE 2.3, NTA 4.2.2, NCM 7.6, NetPath 1.1.0, CloudMonitoring 1.0.0, SAM 6.4.0 to .... wait, I can no longer scrape that from the bottom of the web window. Must be a graphic element now. Reverting to Soviet mode copy and paste (eyeballs,…
  • Unmanaged show up fine, but I'm not seeing muted nodes.
  • All - The upgrade to Orion Platform 2019.2 HF2, NPM 12.5, NTA 4.6.0 fnally fixed this for us. =Foon=
  • Well, after uninstalling the TFTP server that came with the Engineers Toolset from one of my servers and rebooting it to fix inability to download configs via SNMP/TFTP, the phantom ASA NetFlow interface problem came back. So I'm going to uninstall all SolarWinds software and reinstall it on the affected server. That fixed…
  • Thanks to Israel Daiz of SolarWinds, we no longer have the phantom interfaces. The fix was to uninstall and reinstall the JobEngineV2.msi and CollectorInstaller.msi from C:\ProgramData\Solarwinds\Installers in an elevated cmd window. Be sure to nuke the files in C:\ProgramData\Solarwinds\Collector\Data as specified in the…
  • I spent some time with a SolarWinds engineer via Webex. He looked at the live capture via Wireshark, and could not find the phantom interfaces in the flow packets. This convinces me even more that this is not an ASA issue. He tried uninstalling and reinstalling a couple of modules, and initially, it looked like it had…
  • I have submitted support case # 00207774 on this.
  • For 4.x, I believe its on Admin, NetFlow Traffic Analyzer Settings page. For 3.11: * Start Windows PerfMon * Click the green plus sign icon * Scroll down to SolarWinds Netflow, and expand it * Scroll down to Netflow V5 Flows Received per Second and/or Netflow V9 Flows Received per Second - depending on how your routers and…
  • Any updates on this for monitoring W2K12R2 servers?
  • I don't have a backup issue, but apparently the memory optimized tables cause problems for the config wizard when migrating to a W2K16 server. The NTA wizard throws: "Selected database [SolarWindsFlowStorage] already contains memory optimized filegroup. Each database can contain just one. Please choose another database."…
  • We now have: * Orion Platform 2018.2 HF6 * NCM 7.8 * NPM 12.3 This still does not work on any of our installs. Still see grey dots when viewing the Admin context. I wonder if the reason is the hostname on the context. In the System context with a hostname of ourasa01, we have acommand: prompt hostname state priority…
  • Circling back to this thread. We now have: * Orion Platform 2017.3.4 SP4 * NPM 12.2 * NCM 7.7 But on the summary page for the admin context, it still sees itself, and lists one other context as a grey dot - but that context is already in NPM and NCM. We usually have only a single additional context. So I conclude that…
