  • I'm sorry ctopalogly, but I currently cant find a way to do it on the Manage Nodes page. I completely agree it would a WAY better place to perform the search, I just cant find a way to make the OpenSearch work with the mechanics of the Manage Nodes page. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get it to work, I am totally…
  • Thanks andrewbrill for the feedback! I have updated the instructions to include the omitted step.
  • I second the question. ALL of my virtual machines show Virtual Machine, host unknown. I was under the impression that Orion would populate this information itself.
  • Go to the Website Administration page, and click Account Manager Select the account you want to adjust and select edit. At the bottom of the page, under Default Menu Bar and Views you will see a section for Name's Network Performance Monitor Settings. Expand that and you can select a view that you have hopefully already…
  • Here is an Advanced alert that will work for you: Trigger Alert when all of the flowing apply Poller Name is equal to (Name of your Poller) Status is greater than (Your Threshold)
  • A combination of my idea and pyro13g's idea is all you can really do.
  • The closest thing you can do is a View by Device Type. It will be in the admin console in soalrwinds. You can define a different view fore each different Device Type you have monitored.
  • I would also like to see this. I have the need for a stacked graph showing all monitored services CPU, and Memory usage, similar to what you see in other monitoring products. Orion even has the concept down with the stacked graphs for ESXI hosts, lets just get it to work for APM now. I would specifically like to see a…
  • Go to the Manage Nodes page. Search for the node, and click the + to the left of the node to expand it and display the resources associated to it. Click the check box for the resources you wish to delete, and click the delete button on the top of the page. DO NOT click the check box for the node itself, or you will delete…
  • You can arrange the order custom properties are DISPLAYED on the Node Details page with a custom HTML Resource. This is how I have mine: <B>AlertBypass:</B> ${AlertBypass}<BR> <B>Environment:</B> ${Environment}<BR> <B>Application:</B> ${App}<BR> <B>Application Owner:</B> ${AppOwner}<BR> <B>CPU Load Threshold:</B>…
  • I have one in the content exchange that will do this for you ">
  • Create a summary view. Add those 2 Resources and then setup a View Limitation to only display that group of nodes.
  • I have had this problem before. If you are dealing with a large number of nodes, the website will most likely time out before all the numbers can be collected from the database, averaged, and displayed.
  • Go to your "Orion Website Administration" page and click Manage Nodes under Node Management
  • YES! I just tested it and I am supprised that it works! 1. Make sure the SNMP service on the node is configured to trap to your Orion Server. 2. Make sure Last XX Traps is in the view that your Unknown nodes are using.
  • I am having the same problem: Some, not all, have differing IP addresses. I hardly look at this page though, so I don't understand this much.
  • Have you tried updating report schemas?
  • The "polling cycle thing" is when it will clear the alert. Here is a break down 5 min Polls, 1.5x "polling cycle thing": 12:31 Entry in windows event log. 12:32 APM Polls, looks in event log between 12:24:30 and 12:32:00. Finds match to event log entry, Component is down. 12:37 APM Polls, looks in event log between…
  • Setup your alert with your threshold. Then on the Trigger Condition Tab, set "Do not trigger this action until condition exists for more than" xx Seconds/Minutes/Hours This will hold the alert in a preparing to alert state until the trigger conditions have existed for your set amount of time.
  • I would suggest double checking the actual bandwidth of that interface. My guess is the actual bandwidth is larger than 1gbps and Orion THINKS it is 1gps. If this is the case, you can manually adjust the bandwidth of the interface in Orion.
  • I thought about having Orion send an email to open tickets once for a min, but dont like not having control over having EVERY alert become a ticket without any troubleshooting or verifications. Maybe a good idea would be a button that is make ticket from alert???
  • I wrote this handy little SQL query that MAY help, or at least maybe get us moving in one direction. You could use this: {SQL:Select CASE WHEN Dateadd(MINUTE,15,'${AlertTriggerTime}') > GETDATE() THEN 'put your whole alert email in here' END } to send a blank email if the alert clears before 15 minutes. Or you could use…
  • I have a complete redesign of the solarwinds alerts interface that I wrote in PHP. It Requires a ticket number to acknowledge an alert, on top of several visual and functional enhancements: I plan on packaging and releasing on thwack soon, after some more testing :D
  • I'd be curious why the rediscovery is overwriting your custom interface speed. I do not think it is supposed to do that. If the rediscovery is supposed to overwrite your custom speeds, what is the point of custom interface speeds if they never stay custom?
  • I add devices utilizing the "Bulk Upload" in the Network Sonar. I then select all the volumes, interfaces etc... Yes this adds more than I would want....so the next thing i do is go through the Node Management page and remove the extra resources orion picked up. I find removing extra resources is much less time consuming…
  • You could create a Summary view, use a network wide chart, and put in a view limitation to boil it down to your 2 devices.
  • I cant think of any alert condition that you could include to hit on a specific time, therefore I would suggest the scheduled task in Windows.
  • Here is what I am using Polling Completion:(percentage of how much is actually getting polled compared to how much is trying to get polled) SELECT PollingCompletion from NetPerfMon..Engines where IP=${IP} Last Network Performance Monitor Update:(Minutes since last sync of netperfmon data) Select…
  • ${SQL:Select Convert(varchar,Round(Left('${VolumePercentUsed}',6),2)) ;}%
  • APM should have added Applications, Top 10 Processes by CPU Load, Top 10 Processes by Physical Memory, Top 10 Components by Response Time, and Top 10 Processes by Virtual Memory to your Node Details page when you installed it. These sections list only the monitored applications and components assigned to the current node…
