Roger that. Correct. Doug Hilbert System Engineer, Data Services Sent from my iPhone

working with version 11.5.2, and set up alerts similarly. What's NOT working that I thought would is when resource listings are 'edited' aka, reselected/deselected from monitoring for an already discovered element. We ran into an issue where some existing selected volume resources were de-selected/unchecked, but not…

Thanks. got it to work correctly with this query: if exists(select top 1 * from sys.databases where is_auto_close_on = 1) select COUNT(*),name from sys.databases where is_auto_close_on = 1 group by name else select 0, '';

yep. I got lucky on a hunch and opened one category of devices and found the creds simply associated with those handful of devices in that category. Doug

thanks Jiri, the upgrade did resolve this. doug

I've got this template working for some Oracle log file monitoring on a couple of Oracle servers, and wondered if there is a better way I could be more efficiently executing monitoring. In the template, I have 11 unique individual 'newly discovered' keyword string component monitors, however, I need to search for these…

We have SAM, and trying to find a Perl based script for our Unix boxes that will trigger on only any NEW occurrence of a keyword within a log file. I implemented a basic template I found in thwack which searches the path and finds keywords for OLD errors we , but not new ones recently appended. It sounds like the Log…

Hi Richard! Thanks for the guideance. I'll review this with our development team to see how this could work. The only other option I see is doing a new discovery based on a list of all the new ip addresses, which would require re-doing multiple bulk field custom property changes, and much customized individual node…

We're running SAM 5.2.0 SP1. We have four seperate Orion NPM instances, all running the same versions. Interesting, I just checked in on a different instance (Canada), different than the instance I've reported (USA), that is also running SAM 5.2.0 SP1, and I see a Win 2003 domain controller with a SNMP component monitor…

Discovered that SNMP is the only avenue for performance counters as after BES v5.0, RIM removed all performance counters. We're running 5.0.4. http://knowledgebase.solarwinds.com/kb/questions/2769/Blackberry+monitors+are+not+returning+any+values+when+the+BES+template+is+applied. So, with SNMP the only option, I verified…

Thanks for the fast reply. What I'm trying to accomplish is getting the counts on 'Messages Queued for Delivery' or 'Pending Messages' so that I can set a critical threshold and alert on it when it reaches a specific value. When using Windows Process Monitor template and process explorer, I see a number of processes, but…

Thanks Tomas, good to know. Regarding online index rebuild (offline) procedures I mentioned in my original post, our DBA is finding that rebuilds (offline) are failing when attempted from SQL Server Management Studio. Databases were confirmed in single-user mode, so not sure why they would fail and I don't have error…

got it. thanks!

thanks!

great thanks!

Good tip. I'll try that! Doug

Our database admin applied the MS hotfix noted farther down in this thread and we've not had the CPU maxing out issue yet.Think it fixed it. AppInsight SQL Maxing out DB Server CPU

Thanks. Still learning SQL queries, and a.) not sure what to write to get that to return, looking at your example, and b.) once I do get it to return, what alert property variable do I select in the available message variables in order to populate that in my message. Here's my component template with query, followed by the…

Vinay, Thanks but my post shows those variables I'm already pulling and limitation I ran into for how to include the tunnel name. Appreciate your input.

Thanks for the detailed answer. I'm working on this with a colleague and will surely circle back with you for input/assist. Appreciate your time!

Thanks. just posted new info. appreciate your time and interest. It's driving me nuts!

Thanks for writing, however 1.) It is a SQL Authenticated account, and I have 'false' for 'Use Windows Authentication first, then SQL authentication.' (shows blank checkbox as shown by you) 2.) It works fine for awhile, then randomly will fail amongst 3-4 specific component. 3.) I ran duplicate monitoring to same target…

@ jfrazier, Been researching this for moving from email ticket generation to non-email integrated for NPM v12 interation with remedy 9.1, and so far only see one out of band solution in ayehu eyeshaream for Solarwinds. Everything else is custom out of band, complicated. Only game out there is eyeshsare? Is that your…

Our Team is getting a similar error when attempting SNMPv3. Has anyone else have insight into assist in troubleshooting this with AIX? Keep getting ENGINEID and UNKNOWN username errors?!? I've verified the username along with the authentication and encryption configuration, configured as MD5/DES56 From the log: SNMP Error…

I logged into one of the targets that is now reporting the connection error from Appinsight, and WinRM is already configured and running from the previously successful configuration before upgrade. My previous post showed results of having re-run configuration post upgrade too, showing success, so not sure the instructions…

Thanks. I updated the query to get it to return the name of the database, and stat (albeit backwards, name first, then stat), I found that when I execute it from SQL Mgmt studio when connected directly to the instance, it now produces the name of database and the statistic as seen below. However, when I run it from the…

Great. Will give it a try and see if it helps.

I'm seeing this too. it's been longer than 15 mins for me and still going......did your eventually complete?

Didn't work. Same components going to 'Down' state. Will plan on trying the upgrade angle for SAM 6. Thanks for the feedback and input.

Yep. It's happening to one of my four instances. I was just about to open a ticket. I created a new custom property, and entered in close to 80 values, not having assigned any of them to nodes yet. When going back into edit to add a few more dropped to 62! Decided to add back in only two to ensure it was ok, and on refresh…
