I am working on developing my own Application Monitors and Alerts using Powershell and OIDs. Slow going, but we're getting information now.

I see, it was the trigger condition that I had that was preventing the "Condition must exist for mroe than x minutes" from appearing. Thanks.

Thank-you, but unfortunately, that option is not available on the modified "F5 Alert me when server is not up", or any of the modified F5 alerts where I had tried this trick previously. That options will appear very briefly then disappears, so I assume there is something in these alerts that negates that option from…

Since upgrading to SAM 6.6, we have been getting these warnings, even with unlimited licensing. I have an open case with SW Support. It seems to show up for unmanaged application monitors/component monitors. I've also seen it on improperly configured application monitors that Orion cannot successfully execute. Another…

Was anything more done on this?

Thanks for posting this - this allowed me to track back on my server and figure out that the self-signed certs were expiring, and that after renewing them, I had to assign them to Port 443 on the Default Web Site. This solved all my problems!

The query that would work for us is: SELECT Count(*) as StatusCount FROM [dbo].[Containers], [dbo].[ContainerMemberDefinitions], [dbo].[Nodes] Where (Containers.name = 'XXXX') and (Nodes.Status = '2') and Containers.ContainerID = ContainerMemberDefinitions.ContainerID and right(Expression,4) = Nodes.NodeID I know the query…

We are running the latest and greatest. There is theory that this may be more related to network connectivity to the remote site than Orion's reporting... If we ever figure this out I'll update the post.

This is exactly what we've been looking for. I have the query working inside of the Database Manager making a few modifications for our environment in the AND and adding a final WHERE clause. But when I attempt to put this into a Resource as a Custom Query I get the error: Error: A query to the SolarWinds Information…

@Jordan.swan - If you can post the answer when you get it, that would be awesome. I won't bother opening my own ticket right now then.

We could use something similar, but want to get only the unmanaged interfaces. Any ideas on this?

Can you expound on this? I'm not sure what you mean by "edit your Colum Set"?

We ran into the same thing today. Need this fixed.

Unfortunately, this did not last, and it seems regularly to be giving the license error across many, many of our components. I'll have to enter a ticket as this seems related to the SAM 6.6 update. Thanks!

The article worked well to solve the issue, but should 1) Tell you where to go to activate and deactivate your license (Admin > License Manager) and 2) that you need to retrieve your Activation Key before you can reactivate the license. (From Customer Support Portal > License Management).

Thanksjoe.tran. I am running this locally and have done the testing to eliminate this being a permissions issue or a path issue. I did a dir command within PS on the App Monitor and found that several modules weren't listed, there were listed if I did a dir within ISE. It's not a permissions issue, but a 64 bit vs 32 bit…

Thanks! I have more questions before I can answer you accurately. * DB Availability Thresholds: I'm not sure which specific thresholds you are looking for here? All the existing thresholds show green (even the component is still warning) * Baseline Data Use: Sorry, again, where specifically? * so the polling method is…

I opened a support ticket yesterday to get some of these answers. #3) How does it know when an auto-dependency is a duplicate of a manual dependency? #4) Once an auto-dependency is created, will it go away if a manual dependency duplicates the functionality, or do we have to ignore the auto-dependency.

I love this! Wish I had had it years ago. Thank-you m-milligan and hcy01uk

Any success in getting this ported to newest release?

Did you ever figure this out - we have the same need.

There's a couple of ways of doing this, but one is: Admin > SAM Settings > Manage Application Monitors Under Assigned Application Monitors tab, navigate to the server. You'll see the assigne application monitors and which template they are based on.

Did either of you ever create a template? If so, I'd love to see what you did as I need to define something and I'd rather not start from scratch.

Have you started here? Troubleshooting AppInsight for IIS

How about adding it as a new node with the agent and leaving the old one running - then you can keep your history and can do some comparisons?

I ended up using a query I found in THWACK and modifying it slightly for our needs: SELECT ToLocal([SuppressFrom]) AS [LocalSuppressFrom], ToLocal([SuppressUntil]) AS [LocalSuppressUntil], CASE WHEN [EntityUri] LIKE 'swis://%/Orion/Orion.Nodes/NodeID=%' AND [EntityUri] NOT LIKE 'swis://%/Orion/Orion.Nodes/NodeID=%/%' THEN…

Did you see this post? Displaying Alert History for Component

I assume you forced a rediscover of the node? I had this recently, and had to force a rediscover of the node before this cleared. It was like Orion had "old hardware" it was trying to monitor.

I have begun switching all the individual service monitors that we have created over the years to using a single template that has a component for all the individual services that I want to monitor on the various servers. In the template, I disable most of the component monitors. Then when I add a new component to the…

Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm thinking you would need to do it with SWQL that does a COUNT, but I'm not sure how to do this: Maybe a combination of these two queries: SELECT Status, COUNT(*) as DownCount FROM [dbo].[Containers] Where (name = 'iSCSI Data Center - iSCSIHost1, iSCSIHost3, iSCSIHost5, iSCSIHost7')…
