I completely agree with you and have been holding off enabling the auto-dependency feature since it was released a few revs. back because I'm unsure how it will affect the manual dependencies I have in place. There are certain networks in our infrastructure which are still a maze and could probably benefit from this…

I'd also like to add that if you do take up wanting to learn programming it is ideal to pick an easy to use language and stick to using it while you learn. Also, there are a number of different options which are free and well structured from an academic perspective. I plan to someday be in an automation role using tools…

Excellent Guide. I have been running GNS3 off and on for a number of years so can highly recommend it myself. However, in the past I had lots of trouble with running it on Windows and seemed to always encounter performance issues and bugs that never appeared to plague the Debian Linux derivatives like Ubuntu or Mint. The…

Thanks for the info.

My first computing experience was the Commodore 64 and all I did was play games from my external 5 1/4" floppy. The best thing Mom did for me was to force me outside to play with friends and socialize because if it wasn't for that I would likely be a shut-in instead of a well adjusted (well somewhat) member of society.

I realize there are already 3 ticket holders but thought I would put myself in as a backup just in case. It's always a good idea to have quality backups.

Awesome, thank you all!!!!

May the bytes be with you!

My guess is that you can't override the canned alerts which is why I suggested making a copy and disabling the original. On Nov 12, 2015 9:38 PM, "dda23" <

I figured that may be case but thanks for confirming my suspicions.
-
Lol, yeah that is pretty much the case. However, it's usually devolves into me saying things like, "Ah, never seen that syslog message before wonder what it means?" or "The CPU utilization of that particular model Cisco Switch seems a bit off, must investigate!" In essence creating additional work for myself by having a…

Hey Ed, In regards to the compliance reports and scripting I would suggest watching the following video that walks through setting up a compliance report and associating nodes as well as change scripts for remediation to the report. [VIDEO] SolarWinds Lab #34: Amp Up Your Network Configuration and Compliance with…

Also, one other thing to be aware of is there may be a bug in the version of NPM and Orion Core that you are running. I had went up against a similar issue in a previous discussion with thresholds falsely alerting which I linked to below. Critical Value Reached (Percent Loss) Triggering Falsely If you are still running…

I suggest getting a baseline of the response times in NPM for those specific device types and then create a copy of you're current alert and modify it to only include either devices of that type or from a certain vendor and have it alert on a range based around those ICMP response times. Once this is working you could then…
-
Yep, that is exactly what I'm trying to do Craig. I'll see if there is a creative way to accomplish what I'm looking for in SWQL as you suggested and if nothing else get some exposure to working with custom queries and the Orion SDK.

That was just an example as shown above I'm not actually wanting to filter by a specific building as we have over 120 schools in our district and a number of administrative building so those columns currently cover all of those building at different hierarchical levels. I'm looking for more of a GROUP BY 'Building'…

Check out my other script to add Switched Virtual Interfaces - https://thwack.solarwinds.com/docs/DOC-187547#comment-216096

This was immensely helpful in the construction of my latest NCM script. Thanks!

Yep, that is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Hi Jiri, It would be immensely helpful if there was a way to get sub-strings and or parse a variable with the Config Change Templates. I know there is a way to concatenate strings use a '+' operator however I see no way based on the documentation for me to return only part of a variable value based on index, length, octect…

Hi Kumar, I was wondering if you were able to find a solution to this problem. We turned up an additional poller at my workplace and migrated over a few nodes to test and are running into this same issue. As you said all other SNMP and ICMP data is showing up except for the Average Response Time & Packet loss graphs which…
-
Hi Ed, It looks like your using the script I originally created and uploaded to thwack (Configure SSH on Supported Cisco IOS Images.ncm-template) so maybe I can provide some helpful input for you to effectively modify and use it to meet your needs. Also, I would be interested in any bugs or issues with this running on…

I like to think of it as organized chaos. Luckily I have two ancient HP Laserjet Guard Dogs to help keep me a little more secluded. I typically run them through a cleaning/maintenance cycle if I detect someone approaching from one of my unguarded vectors.
-
I am also looking for this functionality within the NPM dashboard.

I also noticed issues after upgrading to 11.5.2 with the "Critical Value Reached (Percent Loss)" alerts for CPU and Memory erroneously reporting. In my case the alerts in question are not even monitoring packet loss but rather looking at CPU and Memory Thresholds however the results are the same. I have since adjusted my…
