We are running 8.4(2) as well! hmm maybe something with that exact version then! I'll reach out to SolarWinds and let you know what I find out.

But with a new install, as there is no database to point to, would the order of operations be, install solarwinds to build the database, then build the Availability group for AlwaysOn? Or is there a way to build the alwayson so that we don't need to have a database yet? I just don't see a way, at the moment, to build the…

Ah dang. Alright. Thanks Sean! We were hoping there'd be a way to have EOC forward it, but it doesn't sound like it's made for that. I'll have to see how our other team is using CA Spectrum to further analyse what they need sent over. I'm still not exactly sure how they're using it, and i have no access to their system. It…

Ticket seemed to have died last Friday, i've asked a few questions back to my support tech and i can't get a reply from them.

Hmm, the problem for me is going through hundreds of rules individually. Thanks Jvb! Ticket 00474905. Haven't heard back since Tuesday. Thanks again!

I have a rule with about 75 different strings in them, and the website freezes when trying to load it, but eventually will load everything. I also have a support case open for this but after 2 days, no one has touched it yet. One rule i need to create has about 399 entries to look for, and in creating one that needed…

Worked like a charm! Thank you tdanner​!

I've been looking for this line!!!!! THANK YOU!

I can make a recommendation to move to a syslog alerting, but if Solarwinds is capable of doing Routing Protocols, and neighbor states, i would hope i could just tinker with the out-of-the-box routing protocol neighbor state alert. But in playing around with that alert, it triggers about a dozen alerts, and the network…

Is there a way to see the count of how many times a particular rule fired? that may help me whittle it down to the most likely offenders. Thanks!

I ended up installing it at a couple places on 2016, i've also got coworkers who have, and they haven't seen any issues related to it. However, it's important to note that if something is not working or there are issues, the Support teams will not provide support since the application is installed on an unsupported OS…

Thanks bleearg13​! However, I was hoping to get a combined average and not the sum. We're load balancing through two interfaces on two different nodes. If we have one interface at 100% utilization and another at 10% utilization, we'd like the graph to show that it's at 55%, and not 110%. The sum is helpful though, and i…

Thanks! i'll give that a shot. A tip of the hat to you, sir.

That makes sense then. I saw it on my Facebook feed and thought this took some cojones to pull off.

Awesome! This was what we were assuming when we couldn't add any more nodes in. But you know where assuming gets you Thanks again!

Thank you sir!

Thanks for that. I'd prefer to use an IP SLA, but i can't find any instructions on how to make one. Even going through the Configuration Guide for F5 BIG-IPs, there's no reference to making them, but i've seen other posts online about how they have been made. Do you know if they're called something different in the F5…

Hmm, good to know! I have only seen these results on 5510s and 5520s. I wonder if there's some weird bug in the IOS with the way they handle SNMP requests when they get swamped down. 

aLTeReGo​, are there any Solarwinds specific instructions for setting up the SQL AlwaysOn? While trying to configure AlwaysOn for a new install, it asks for a database. However, as this is a fresh install, there is no database yet. So my thought process is, install Orion on what will be our primary application server, so…

We ended up opening a ticket with Support. Looks like Orion wasn't able to see the Counters from where they are stored on the Windows Servers we were monitoring. There's a couple command line commands to run to fix it, but since this was on our Domain Controllers we weren't able to do it in the time i was there. We had to…

I see this is 8 years old, but ever figure it out?

Is this still the best way? Just asking since it's been two years.

Is this type of forwarding possible using the Enterprise Operations Console to collect the traps, and syslogs and forward it from there? Or, would we have to have all of our instances individually forwarding their syslog, etc to our CA Spectrum? Oh, and to note to your previous answer, i have no development expertise…

Is Nexus support ever going to be addressed?

I'm also seeing this. Hardware health variables take 20-30 minutes to show up in the "Insert Variable" window and the website slows way down. Looks like the query causes Information services to struggle, or struggling information services make the queries fail. Either way, Core Services are full of Long running queries,…

IPAM API Help! I'm trying to update the Status of multiple IPs in IPAM at one time. I have a list of IPs that i want updated from "Available" to "Used" called, IP.txt, and i can see that manually, i can go IP by IP and change the status of the IP availability, with the Invoke-SwisVerb $swis IPAM.SubnetManagement…

At this point we'd be fine with just a test that can see if the F5 can ping 8.8.8.8, and alert if it can't ping that. I know with SAM we could do a Custom Script monitor. But we don't have access the license for that right now. So no, not the ICMP health monitors of the load balaced servers, but if those servers can ping…

I also have this problem..... any update? Monitoring an application on a Windows 2008 R2 Server.

Ever have any luck with this? I've got a few ideas, but i can't manage the cisco gear in question. I'm thinking since i have the Routing Neighbor, Protocol Orion Status looking for Neighbors with the status of Down, that there may be interfaces that are looking for neighbors, but don't have.
