That does look like a possible solution, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

ok, have you tried any? Hostname, Caption, whatever? 

@"Deepthi" I think you mean the configuration in the SAM section of the admin area, try http://<yourserver>/Orion/APM/Admin/Settings.aspx You want the Data & Database Settings section, look for 'Event log message retention:' Be careful though. It can store a lot of data, and if you ever want to shrink it back down the…

OK @"rinat.kirimov", I adapted another script I had to be close to what you want (maybe?), but I wasn't able to run it, so you will need to tweak it. Specifically the custom properties, but I might have typos or some small logic mistakes. param ($SwisServer, $credentials)try { Add-PSSnapin SwisSnapin }catch { Write-Host…

My mistake, I was able to find a server still on ilo3, I didn't see any on 2 but I'd bet its the same. It looks like I am polling the ilo address, but it was configured by the HP management install in the OS which passes the data to the ilo card. Not what I was expecting.

If you start down the path and decide that I want to see x y and z, but need to know how to make it happen, just post what you have, and what you want. I will also mention that if you have custom properties, they may improve what you get out of whatever method. An example is that I have custom properties for support team…

Traps are not likely what you want. Below are the windows services from one of my windows servers: Open SNMP Service, add your community name and hosts you will allow to query the communities.

Right the endpoints need to provide the SNMP data, if its configured on the endpoint you can scan for the SNMP namespaces in addition to ICMP. Other ways to get the MAC addresses are not part of IPAM, just DHCP and SNMP.

I hope it all works out for you, thanks for the update

Replace the OR with AND I think you want things that do not match any of the three criteria, which needs AND SysName not like '*sql*' AND SysName not like '*node*' AND SysName not like '*db'

You can try restarting the application services (from the Admin settings page for the Orion services), but honestly, a server reboot shouldn't be cause for concern. Windows Apps sometimes need a server restart, and things that Orion relies on from the OS might be the issue.

so you want a script ( powershell?) to iterate through the Nas volumes, check the SVM (which I think is SRM_V.VServers.Caption) and if SVM = x then set custom property "prop1" to value "1" If SMV = y then set prop1 to value "2" Does that sound right?

I follow, and I can get less info to work too, like: SELECT N.Caption AS [Local Device], CDP.IPAddress AS [IP Address], CDP.DeviceId AS Device, CDP.DevicePort AS [Remote Interface] FROM Orion.NodeCdpEntry CDP INNER JOIN Orion.Nodes n ON CDP.NodeID = N.NodeID

I got your error. I will see I I can work through it.

So I can make a guess, but let start with simple and work our way up. I am basing this on adatole​'s guide to slack integration, its likely that is how you got started. The Incomplete Guide to Integrating SolarWinds Orion and Slack On page 14 of the pdf when you run the command in a local shell, not an alert via curl does…

Do you get errors? Incorrect results? I have a sample that I think is pretty close in another post, help me understand where you are having issues.

Have you missed anything? I don't know, let walk through it, because it sounds like you should be able to do what needs to be done. Hopefully the screenshot shows up correctly or this won't make sense. At #1 you have the ability to tell the template to use the agent if its there, and I think Agent is the default and…

If this is an interface summary page, it may be grabbing the first available item as its title. Try the custom object on a normal summary page (you can still grab the interface data) and see if that helps. If not, what type of summary page are you using?

I am also on 4.6 and updating the custom properties works with the SDK sample code, but your example was writing to Comments, and I think that is not a custom property, it likely would be updated with the code under the section: 'CRUD operations for IPAM.IPNode' I will try to test some code today to see if I can do it, and…

I did want to go down the route of a 3 node cluster using availability groups. My DBA's were really uncomfortable with the amount of transactions. I feel like we should be able to do this, we have more than enough capacity in our links, but it was a non-starter. When that didn't pan out, our back up software simple clones…

Glad it got you working

it could be that "save" cycles the SNMP service to apply any potential changes. You could try to open a ticket (with Pure) to see if they have a fix for SNMP not responding/crashing.

You have just triggered a flashback of a more traumatic time

Kevin is right, and a little effort can make a big difference with something like a CMDB, but make sure you do it right. NPM data by itself is good, but NCM data for network gear, SAM for Server/App, SRM for storage and VMan for VMware, is even better for the CMDB. I can talk more than people want to hear about this, but…

You can see the Vmware topology map in the online demo: http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/Orion/VIM/VManEmbedded.aspx?embed=Map but I prefer the simple summary view: http://oriondemo.solarwinds.com/Orion/VIM/VIMVMwareSummary.aspx?view=VIM%20VMware%20Summary

Set up as many as you need. I test new alerts in our dev environment and use the prod for our alerts in production. I don't think you can flip the action from one to the other, I think you need to create a new action.

If you have access into Orion, and can import a node things will start to make more sense quickly. Just the import process will show you alot of what has been mentioned, assuming the WMI communication is all worked out. If you don't see stuff, try to get admin access to a test box so you can see what it should look like.…

Availability is tough. Orion does some stuff out of the box, but it didn't match how my organization thinks about downtime. What I do will not help everyone, but here it is. I should say that I ask that people mute alerts during scheduled downtime, and acknowledge alerts to stop emails. First, we have Alerts for simple…

I think you remove a reservation by changing the status from reserved to Available and sending it to the dhcp server on save. Does that clear the reservation for you?

Let me walk you through how I would do it, there are a number of ways to get it done. Hopefully that will work for you as well. From the SAM settings, create a new template. From the template, browse for the monitor Choose the Service Monitor, it will use WMI. Connect to the server that has your service with the next…
