I would suggest installing orion cleanly on the new server with the new ip. Then you can connect the new server to your existing database. Once you have that done, you will need to update your nodes to be polled by the new engine by updating the nodes table in the database. In your database do "Select * form engines" you…

Adding my vote. 1. Reporting SERVER Uptime based on SNMP Uptime is a LIE! I cannot accurately tell my company the uptime of ANY device we have. 2. Multiple times we have experienced issues with the SNMP service on a windows machines, or the snmpd process on Linux machines and have to restart the service/process. Every time…

Never mind, I figured it out and I am feeling stuipd! Just incase anyone else has a similar dificulty, it is: *wan*, *cor*, !wan-05

Insert into your alert email: Contact and Circuit Info: ${CUSTOMFIELDNAME}

I've had to do this before, it's very easy Just run this SQL query against your Orion databse: UPDATE NODES set EngineID = ‘3’ WHERE EngineID = ‘2’ Just make sure all of your pollers are shut down before doing this

I had the same problem when I had to give it a path with spaces in the path. Try putting it in quotes, or giving it a path without spaces.

Not that I know of...

I have the same problem. I don't need to show them at same time, but it is just annoying looking in the interfaces. I tried 2 different queries in the db: Update Nodes set Vendor='Unknown' where Vendor = '' Update Nodes set Vendor='' where Vendor = 'Unknown' None of those worked. They just reverted back to how they were…

Why do you want to do it in Network Config Manager? Write your report in report writer, then set up Orion Report Scheduler to automatically run and email you the report once a month.

As far as I understand it, Caption is what Orion has stored as the name to display, DNS is what the ip address in Orion is resolving to, and System Name is what Orion sees as the name via SNMP when it does a rediscovery. If System Name and DNS are different, your DNS server may just be slow to update. You can also increase…

I think this is a great idea. I believe I even bought something like this up over a year ago :D All of our devices send link down traps with the same interface index as what is being polled via snmp.

Node status is strictly the ping status for the ode Unknown is a problem with Orion Up is pinging Down is not pinging Warning is pinging but with packet loss.

Orion requires a SQL database to store all the information. This window is asking you where your SQL server is to store the NetPerfMon database, and what credentials you have to connect to this SQL server.

Update: APM is rounding memory usage DOWN from 1.4%:

Funny thing you should mention that link bleearg13 That download was invented by my co worker to accomplish my need to ack with a link

Im interested in this also. I found where in the database the account limitations are stored, and TRIED to hack one to include an OR, but it didn't work :( I didn't spend too much time after that troubleshooting...maybe I'll try again in a few days here...

None for me. My company runs Trend Micro Office Scan on all the servers here, and I have not had any issues with Trend Micro and Solarwinds living together on the same box :)
