Hello freemen, what exactly are you looking for? If you just enter "vbscript tutorial" to Google, you get plenty of results. I'm not very good in VBscript but if I need to script something, I was always successful finding it on google and tweaking some scripts out there.

Hello, what you described is really strange. I'm not aware of any issues related to low disk space on monitoring server so far. However 10% is not an exact information. How much space was it in real? 10GB, 100MB? APM should work just fine if all other parts of system are OK. Please, open a support ticket so we can look…

Hello, if you go to edit dialog of advanced alert and click on "Trigger Condition" tab, there is "Do not trigger this action until condition exists for more than ...". There you can set minimal time to little more than transaction polling frequency to get desired result. so if you poll transactions every 5 minutes, setting…

Hello, the user account has to be allowed to log-on interactively to the server. Can you try to create new local user yourself and try to log-in using this user via RDP? Does it work?

Hello, do you have Server and Application Monitor product? That has Asset Inventory feature which not only tells you about hardware of the servers but it also collects list of all installed software. The SNMP OIDs that give you installed software are: * Name - 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.6.3.1.2 * Version - 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.6.3.1.101 *…

Hello, APM is able to monitor only one specific process per monitor, there is no "all processes monitor". However you can easily use "Windows Script Monitor" for this. Write a VB script that will enumerate running processes on target machine. You can use WMI or maybe better in this situation would be simple "tasklist"…

Hello Jim, if you go to application details page with those grayed out monitors, there should be orange box next to them. If you hover over that box, you should get some error message stating why monitor is in unknown state. What does it say?

Hello mandg, can you please provide more details how this all works? I don't get part with .exe file. Can you provide some step-by-step list of action that user normally do? Do you mean that you have URL like somedomain.com/.../file.exe and that you want to monitor this URL?

Hello lchance, This monitor can use same file name after file change. If you update checksum, do you put correct file in "Select and upload a file for snapshot creation:"? Checksum is counted from file you upload using this filed. If you just hit "Update Checksum" without specifying file in "Select and upload a file for…

Hello jmorse, you can try to write a windows script (VBscript/JScript) that connects to your URL, parses XML and returns desired value. Look at http://www.solarwinds.com/NetPerfMon/SolarWinds/OrionAPMAGCreatingWindowsScriptMonitor.htm Then create Windows Script Monitor that stores your value into Orion DB so you can set…

Hello, what page do you mean by "components page"? Do you have that particular application template assigned to two servers?

Hello, what monitor do you use? SQL User Experience monitor? You can select what kind of authentication to use first - windows or SQL. APM then tries selected method first and if it fails it tries the other. If you don't have "Use Windows Authentication first, then SQL authentication:" checkbox selected, APM tries SQL…

Hello Jason, you can't do this directly using any APM monitor but you can try to write VBScript and create Windows Script monitor that would do this. There are some libraries for VBScript that can work with sockets but most of them are paid. You can also try to use telnet command from script to send and receive data.

Hello, I'm not sure that plain copy of cookies to proper folder makes them available for current versions of IE, it's possible that IE has also some index of cookies where it needs to import them. IE has feature to export&import cookies so I would try that. Export cookies from your account, log-in under each of SEUM user…

Hello Chris, in your script you can create a text file on local disk and store location there. Script is always executed on Orion server so you will have that file always available.

Hello Tony, you have to use Nodes.Status. Status IDs for nodes are: 1 - up, 2 - down, 3 - warning So if you want all nodes that are not up, use Nodes.Status <> 1.

Hello, APM is licensed "per component". Component is a unit that monitors one item on your server. This can be a process, service, network port etc. For example "Windows Server 2003-2008" application monitor template contains 8 components monitoring vital aspects of Windows OS. If you want to monitor Windows OS on your 20…

Hello, You can try following KB article to setup your proxy settings: SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Configuring a web proxy for the Player If you set up the proxy according to KB article, make sure that you don't have "Automatic proxy detection" checkbox checked in IE settings. Also check if the player is in default server…

Hello Manilyn, if you mean "client certificate" that user uses to authenticate on the website, then WPM has built-in support for that. It is able to save certificate with recording and use it during playback. There should be nothing special needed for that, it's transparent for user. Can you post some screenshot of how…

WPM clears cache before every playback so it's a "first time run" each time.

Hello Byron, Linux scripting has virtually no limits and you should be able to do everything you can imagine because Linux is based on command shell and scripts. You can write a script that will run on each of servers but will connect to backup server and count used space on that backup server. There are various ways how…

Hello Len, WPM is trying to clear cache after every playback and it also closes browser inside but the process itself still runs. It looks that in your case some process-specific data are still kept between sessions and cause the issues. By default each worker process executes up to 10 transactions and then it's terminated…

Hello Frank, check what value do you have in database in [Websites] table under [ServerName]. This should be the value that URL uses. You may try to change it to correct server name but I would be careful here because it may cause issues somewhere else. Another and safer approach is to create URL by yourself. Go to some…

Hello sotherls, message for component is stored in [APM_PortEvidence_Detail].[ErrorMessage]. You have to pair port evidence with specific component and component status to get this message for reports.

Hello Simon, message displayed in UI by failing component is available in variable ${StatusOrErrorDescription}. This variable is available only for APM:Component, not for whole application. You will have to create alert on APM:Component and then you can include this variable in alert message.

Hello, is playback failing immediately after you record it? If you stop the playback and then try to access the page in recorder again, does it work? What is on the page when you get this error? Is it some default IE error page like "This program cannot display the webpage" or is it something different?

Hello, this issue should have been fixed in latest version of WPM which is 2.2. Do you have WPM 2.2 installed? Anyway, workaround is to disable and enable affected alerts. That makes alerts working again.

Hello, pre-populated templates should be templates with tag "Popular". Try to remove "Popular" tag from templates and they should disappear from pre-populated list.
