Could you post the text from the body of your email as it is defined in the trigger action? We can double-check it from there.

I was going to point out something very similar, but more along the lines that, in a virtualized environment you *want* to see boxes running as lean as possible so that you can increase consolidation ratios. Isn't that why we spend so much money on redundant network, storage and server hardware? Stack 'em deep and run 'em…

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I guess I am used to either you or aLTeReGo​ having all the answers. Paging jeff.stewart​, Dr. jeff.stewart​!

Excellent. Thanks for the super-prompt answer. Just out of curiousity, do you know if Orion is going to be able to support VMWare ESX? We are thinking of setting up a couple of those servers in-house. After reviewing the SW offerings (especially the change management system -- that's incredible!) I'd like to bring that in…

You have no idea how often I utter the phrase "If aparna.valsala​ was here she'd know this." Glad I could help!

Glad it helped!

Awesome! There is nothing worse than searching for an answer and finding out you are the only one who has experienced an issue. (Which probably isn't true, but it sure feels like that sometimes!)

Sweet! Glad I could help and that my pain and suffering reduced your own

Hmm, I didn't -- but I did try it just now. No luck. njoylif‌ > assuming this is still an issue for you, right?

Crap. So, now the question is whether or not there is an easy way to edit network interfaces to poll at a specific rate without editing them one-by-one? In this environment we poll based on an impact scale, so current node statistics rates range from 5 to 15 minutes. I have custom attributes for impact at the interface…

OK -- well that wasn't what I was after, but it did give me a few more minutes to push down another path. The File Rules Detail report is the report that I am after, however, I haven't quite got the File Analysis Rule built just yet to make it work. I am on the right path though! Anyone with experience building file…

Dang -- I didn't. Correct answer to jeff.stewart‌! On the up side, I managed to figure out how to disable it all on my own - I just didn't know that I did

Where's my ignore button?

Yeah, I tried that one -- it doesn't work. It might actually disable the updates of that device via the AIP processes but it doesn't 'uncheck' the list resources box.

Thanks guys, this is awesome feedback. Now, I haven't had a chance to try it out just yet, but it completely makes sense. I'll definitely tackle some report testing and see what I can find. As an FYI, here is what my retention settings currently look like: Retain Detail Stats180 DaysRetain Hourly Stats180 DaysRetain Daily…

Hey vinay.by​, long time no chat! I think we've found something. I'm going to post about it in a reply off the main post. Watch for more details shortly.

After chatting with ciulei‌ a little we're thinking that a stored procedure to update a custom property on a regular interval (nightly?). It means not having to maintain a table and gives us a static property in the Nodes table to us for this (and other!) queries.

Tell me more about this issue with Splunk UFs on Windows? We are getting ready to rollout thousands of those badboys and now I am curious if I need an extra layer of monitoring...

Support responded with these instructions. (Sorry, you'll have to contact support to get the root password as it is not distributed in the forums). As per my response above, this didn't work for us because our virtualization team made some additional edits to the VM post deployment (we suspect) that caused disk issues.…

They did but it didn't. Here's what happened (or at least what I think happened). The virtualization team was trying to roll out of the OVA and then make some changes to the disk to match their default Linux builds in Edit Settings. I did a screen-share with them and we walked through it together and it seemed to work. We…

Still working on it. Of course, I'd have some vCenter data collection issues over the weekend

LOL -- it's all good. We have a dedicated sales resources for our account and he does a fine job in getting us what we need. He's not nearly as good as a former channel manager I used to know, but he'll do

Define 'stuff'? An agent polled node is the same as an SNMP or WMI polled node when it is first added. You will still need to go in and List Resources to add the elements to be monitored on those nodes in addition to doing any tagging of custom properties, etc. I know that it is possible to do List Resources via the API…

This is was resolved. It was a back-end issue at Solarwinds. Details unknown or forgotten by me

dfairles beat me to the screenshot but I logged INC 745232 for the issue.

I ended up putting together a custom SQL report to grab the data I needed. Basically, I grab the nodes that don't exist in the APM_HardwareInfo table and don't exist in the VIM_VirtualMachines table. Seemed to work -- although it does require that NPM's IVIM module is set up correctly and that virtual machines are managed…

I've got all the dashboards locked down (thank-you!) but wondering if I can prevent users from creating new dashboards? Is there any other security that I should look at implementing? We have a rather unique environment in that we give every user in the enterprise access to all of the information available in the our…

Brilliant! I guess I should have read that manual a little more closely, eh?

Doh! After getting the vcore team to check it out and confirming that everything is green, I am back to asking "Why isn't Orion updating?" h/t to the PowerCLI query for making it easier to check! Get-VMHost myesxhost | % {(get-view $_.id).runtime.healthSystemRuntime.systemHealthInfo.NumericSensorInfo | Where-Object…

Awesome Chris, thanks! Between that and aLTeReGo​'s comment about this being fixed in vCenter 6.x and up (which I need to double-check) I think I know what to tell the VMware engineers
