From an operations perspective, I would I agree with you that reboots don't necessarily need to be an alert. We used to just have them as a daily report as well. In our case, we now sync change schedules from our ITSM solution to SolarWinds as a scheduled maintenance period. Any reboots of a production node outside of an…

Thanks for the suggestion. This may work for some companies. Unfortunately for us, it would be a full time job manually unmanaging/managing nodes manually. We have thousands of nodes and have scheduled changes happening 24x7 on various devices. The second work around would probably work for the Windows devices, as long as…

Case# 01257656 According to support it is a bug which should be fixed in 2023.2. Currently, there is not a workaround available.

I have the same issue after upgrading from 2020.6 to 2022.4.1. This is definitely causing some compliance issues being we use Orion to track reboots outside of approved maintenance windows. We have also converted our licensing to HCO, so rolling back to 2020.6 is not an option. We have a case open for this as well.

Yeah, the case# was 00869953. Now that I look back at it, it was actually open for a little over 9 months!

Hi @dhinagar_j I did this with an alert. I started with an advanced SWQL alert condition that looks for online agents that haven't updated CPU load stats in 180 minutes. That time can be adjusted though. I then added a trigger action to call a PowerShell script which restarts the agent via a SWIS API call. You have to pass…

Hey! I didn't find a real great solution for this. Nothing we did inside the components themselves made a difference. With our scripts, we're mainly looking for a statistical response and not an up/down status. So I ended up working around it by adding a condition to the the application down alerts to exclude the…

I did create a Universal Device Poller that can grab a fair amount of information directly from the iDRAC including physical/logical disk status, if it's useful for you. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/content-exchange/network-performance-monitor/m/universal-device-pollers/3303

There is an "ImportRules" verb under Orion.OLM.ProcessingRule in the API. It looks like "Read" is the only CRUD option available on Orion.OLM.ProcessingRule, so this import looks to be the only option via the API. You'd have to format your rules into the required JSON format in order to import them, which you should be…

AVI was bought by VMware in ~2019 and renamed to NSX Advanced Load Balancer

We have NSX and would love to monitor it, including but not limited to NSX Advanced Load Balancers (formerly AVI).

We get these intermittently as well. All of our servers are running PowerShell 5.0. @"serena"It would be nice if the component monitors could fail to an unknown status instead of down if there's a PowerShell pipeline error so that alerts/pages wouldn't go out over a failure to run a check. I tried putting the entire…

I believe this is related to the following Cisco bug. It is probably just clearing when you power cycle the device, not necessarily related to dusting or reseating the power supply. quickview.cloudapps.cisco.com/.../CSCvj04522

Thanks! I was having troubles tracking down the URL for the Cisco EOS dates.

I created a feature request a little bit ago that is basically asking for the same thing. I've seen other software that increases the frequency of the checks when an issue is detected. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/t5/SAM-Feature-Requests/Fast-Polling-for-SAM-Templates-Components-when-an-issue-is/idi-p/610981

I'd second mesverrum​. You are basically into debugging your script now. Perl is really modular, so it is possible that you don't have all of the same Perl modules installed on the new server that you had on the old. Perl could be running an different version and some of the commands in the script could be deprecated as…

Awesome, great to hear, thanks!

Hey Brett, I have my SCP for NPM and SAM. Can I get the badge too?

Thanks. We do have vROps as well. It would be nice to see everything in Orion too though.

@"jmbourn" I believe she was referring to this post that has been revised a bunch of times. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/t5/Getting-Started-Documents/THWACK-Store-Items-amp-FAQ-Updated-August-2020/ta-p/590375

Hey Pat, You could scope this either way. You'll likely run into situations where a node is a parent of some nodes, but a child to other nodes as well. Adding in the "unreachable" condition would just keep it from alerting in the circumstances where the node is a child, but shouldn't adversely affect it if it is a parent…

If you're looking to pull that information from WMI, I think you'd want to look at the SoftwareLicensingProduct class. So, a basic WQL query would be 'select Name from SoftwareLicensingProduct where LicenseStatus = "1"' That would return Microsoft products with a LicenseStatus of "Licensed" SoftwareLicensingProduct class |…

This link has a quick walk through on enabling file auditing. You'd want to enable it for success and failures on the actual Perl exe file. Success Center When you simulate, does the script provide the intended results, aside from the success message? Does it pull down the configs, etc? -gkjono Loop1 Systems: SolarWinds…

You can navigate to Settings > All Settings > SAM Settings > Manage Application Monitors. The "Assigned Application Monitors" tab shows all of your template assignments. Check the box next to the assignment that you want to remove and click delete. This is only deleting the assignment, not the template or node. I'm an…

I don't think it has to go to that level. Just give them the ability to failover using a VIP or virtual hostname just like SW does for APEs and the app server. Not all of the clients have F5's or SAN replication to use clustering services for geographic failover. It has come up with several clients that they would prefer…

Does this still exist as a feature request? It would be great to have this available when migrating views from one system to another and/or when merging environments.

How did this work out for you guys? We use Gigamon to feed ExtraHop, but it would be nice if we could use it for NTA as well so that we don't have to maintain separate flows just for NTA.
