And I assume the <OperationNumber> must be unique per router/switch and assuming fully meshed a <DestinationIPAddress> must be entered for each destination i.e. 1.Router> enable 2.Router# configure terminal 3.Router(config)# ip sla monitor <OperationNumber> 4.1.Router(config-sla)# type jitter dest-ipaddr…

This query is working for me: ${SQL:Select Status From CustomPollerAssignment as Assignment, CustomPollerStatus as Status where Assignment.CustomPollerAssignmentID = Status.CustomPollerAssignmentID and Assignment.NodeID = ${NodeID} and Assignment.AssignmentName like 'Custom_Poller_Name'} JB

PAE = Physical Address Extention Lets 32bit OSs use 36bits to address memory 2^36 = 64Gb AWE = Address Windowing Extensions http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190673.aspx JB

Custom Pollers are useful for monitoring the status of the cluster itself Check this out.... JB

Not easily, it would require ASP.NET and alas I do not have that skill. Sorry JB

I want to chime in here, WEB Management is nice but System Manager is a better solution for adding and maintaining nodes. We have 4000 elements and find the WEB UI slower than SM. As a for instance, there are times when there are name changes on interfaces/Volumes, that requires the "new" interface/volume need to be added…

I like the ease of having management functionallity on the web BUT before SW goes whole hog, I want to see more granularity on the permissioning. For instance: NPM "Allow Node Management" lets a user manage nodes and only node management (duh) but the only way to manage Application Monitors is to be a Full Admin. Now there…

Thanks JB

Sure Brian I'd love to hear what you are planning and let ou know what we're planning and well as giving you some input. I'll send you a private email with contact info. JB

Thanks for the reply FYI we're up 60 MB in less that an hour, at this rate I'll have to schedule a restart every 8-12 hours. JB

WOW, six months, three service packs and a 225% increase in maintenanxce costs later and this still hasn't been fixed? I'm amazed Just opened Ticket #36904 JB

Josh: I uploaded the Diagnostics files (all 103 MB of them). But I the meantime I uninstalled and reinstalled APM 2.0 from the console using Add/Remove Programs and Shazaam, it's working. Very puzzled. JB

Here is the Emergency (99% full) alert mesage we use: JB Subject: Emergency: ${Node.Caption} Disk ${Volume.Caption} Utilization is at Critical Level Body: Alert: ${FullName} is ${SQL:Select Round ('${VolumePercentUsed}',0) from Volumes WHERE VolumeID='${VolumeID}'} Percent Utilized Volume Size ${SQL:Select…

Not possible - how soon til SP1? JB

1) Looks like that should work. 2) No way to round the number, even with a SQL query because the query can't be passed the VolumeID This works as a SQL query IE: ${SQL:SELECT Round(VolumePercentUsed,2) FROM Volumes WHERE VolumeID='${VolumeID}'} But Alerts will always give VolumeID=1

Are you monitoring an HP EVA SAN? if so could you share OIDs? Thanks JB

You know it doesn't, should have tested before I replied. We have this problem with alert suppression and, I hate getting old, I wrote this post.... May have a bearing on why but not a solution. JB

OK, so the process can only address 2GB but the memory manager using PAE can provide more. So APM will not be able to "see" what the memory manager is actually providing to the process. Is that it? JB

Here a poller I wrote, JB

I just uploaded a bunch that I use Check JB

we are also see strange scale problems with maps. we are at 10.1.1 and since the upgrade we are seeinmg maps scale incorrectly requiring multiple refreashes to display correctly attached is an example - the map is the whole world but asia is cut off on the right side. If I refreash (maybe a couple of times) it will…

Ok, I think managed to figure this out... The OIDs (ssCpuRawUser,ssCpuRawnice,ssCpuRawSystem,ssCpuRawIdle,ssCpuRawWait,ssCpuRawKernel,ssCpuRawInterrupt) are The number of 'ticks' (typically 1/100s) spent processing those catagories. the formula…

I have not found a way to reorder the columns, Brandon can we make this a feature request? JB

 Agreed. That feature is on our roadmap. Almost 3 years and two major releases - That must be one hell of a map! Our Orion system spans 12 time zones - is this something we should see or has it been shelved? JB

Here is a shot of my poller setup:

FYI - This was fixed in 9.5 SP2 you MUST remove "order by 'Caption' asc" from all resourse BEFORE upgrading. JB

Version 2.1 I grabed the 4 Hotfixes and applied them seems to be running better. Thanks

Well I can't help you on the feature (I've been waiting too) but as for including location information in alerts, we standardized on a format for the SNMP Location that included the rack row and rack number and added it in the alert. Now when we get an alert form a node we know exactly where to go. JB i.e.…

The one from Program Files -> SolarWinds Orion menu I did have the old one installed, but removed it. JB

Really, I couldn't agree more, I can't upgrade until I am reasonable certain I wont negatively impact functionality or reliability our system. We depend on it too much and I'm just not getting the warm fuzzies from the way the release of 8.5 has been handled. JB
