Hello jeff.stewart​ Thank you so much for fast reply. Could you also confirm, if customer has "NPM with APE" or "NAM bundle" (without Log Analyzer license) - could they use Log Viewer with APEs? The question is mainly focused on existing customers, who does not have LA license yet, but they do have NPM with additional…

On Friday (7.06.2019) I found a brand new NPM 12.5 Final for download I have not yet seen an announcement on Thwack.

Hello ahhong​ >> My understanding is nodes: packet loss (ping), latency isit response? Node is any network device monitored by ICMP (ping), SNMP or WMI. It would not matter which protocol you choose, the licensing would be counted in the same way (for nodes number). Monitoring nodes only by ICMP would give you packet loss,…

Hi mesverrum​ Thanks a lot for this info! Now it all makes sense. I remember that few months ago similar query was working fine for me. I hope SolarWinds will fix it soon. Kind regards, Marcin.

Hello xaturbatu​ Thanks for your reply and new query to test. I appreciate it. Unfortunately the NPM 12.5 is still showing a simple one word "Error" message. For now, I will need to use limited out-of-the box Universal Chart, without labels. This is a pity, as vSConns is a parameter for Load Balancer connections and labels…

Hello Steven, This is an amazing query! I was trying to make something similar with only Discovery tables, but it was too difficult and messy. I did not think of checking the Audit table. Thank you. Kind regards, Marcin.

Hi Lexis, There is a new version of Offline Installer, which is not announced officially It includes new graphical interface. It says "VMAN" Module, but actually the installer contains ALL modules and VMAN is optional. I used it few times and did not have issues without Internet connection, plus it contains few Hotfixes.…

It is also mentioned in the Scalability Engine Guide (at the bottom): ----------------------------------------------- Scalability Engine Guidelines for SolarWinds products What happens if the connection from a polling engine to the Orion Database Server is lost? If there is a connection outage to the Orion Database Server,…

Thanks hpstech​ for the reply. Yes, I am aware that Agent software is capable of storing information for 24h. However I was under the impression that Polling Engines are using MSMQ temporary folder for storing query data, which in fact can be used for storing information during SQL downtime. It seems that there is no time…

Hi @"chad.hanson" As mentioned in my post for PowerShell, you can inject XML configuration directly from SQL DiscoveryProfiles table. For Python, you can follow my steps from PowerShell - it will be the same:…

Hello @"chad.hanson" I had the same issue. I believe that (at least 2019.4 and 2020.2) have some issue with "Orion.Discovery StartDiscovery" and using both plugins on the discovery: <PluginConfigurationItem>$($CorePluginConfiguration.InnerXml)</PluginConfigurationItem>…

Hello @"sreenathmp" This feature is included in the product roadmap, so I am hoping it will be added in the next product release. "Basic Juniper RPM UDP-based performance monitoring." https://thwack.solarwinds.com/t5/VNQM-Documents/What-are-we-working-on-for-VNQM-Updated-December-4th-2019/ta-p/530929 Kind regards, Marcin.

New 2020.2 RC has new Warning/Critical values inside the Volume category. So we will not need to use Forecasting values anymore

Strangely this is not working for SWQL, but it is working for SQL. You can use below query. It should work with Custom Chart. SELECT VSS.DateTime, (vs.Name + ' ON ' + n.Caption) AS [Name], VSS.Connections FROM F5_LTM_VirtualServer_Stats VSS LEFT JOIN F5_LTM_VirtualServer vs ON VSS.VirtualServerID = vs.VirtualServerID LEFT…

Hello @"DN" & @"jvb" Did you find a solution for this issue? I have also seen this issue on one of my environments. Thanks, Marcin.

This looks amazing! I need to build new lab to test it

Hi Team, >> Basic Juniper RPM UDP-based performance monitoring. Would it be possible to include this point in the new 2020.2 version? My Customers are waiting for proper Juniper RPM support. @"jreves" - Could you kindly check internally, if possible? Thank you so much. Kind regards, Marcin.

Hi @"jvb" Thank you for the technical article. I have noticed that API queries to the Orion.OLM.LogEntry are timing out in any high syslog/trap volume environment. Regardless of the hardware configuration, API is not able to count those messages via SWQL. On the other hand, I was successful in SQL queries. However, Log…

Hello Michael, This is a great query. Just what I was looking for. I have made some of my own modifications. If someone is interested, I am pasting it below. Search option is commented inside the query. -------------------------- SELECT N.Caption as Node ,N.detailsurl as [_linkfor_Node] ,I.Caption as Interface…

Hi Team. Could you also add support for modifying Infoblox settings from IPAM as well as IPv6 for Infoblox? Monitor the Infoblox environment

This sounds very interesting. Do you have a roadmap and possible release date for those features, i.e. in 2017 or 2018?

Hello. Would there be any news for beta availability? Thanks a lot!

Hello Ryan, I used my labs and one test CentOS machine to verify this question. Agent is creating new account, which is using for executing console commands. You will also see a new process for the agent. I installed the Agent on CentOS Linux: ------------- Nov 18 19:21:49 centos7 systemd: Starting SolarWinds Agent…

Hello Ahhong I have checked it for you on my labs and all volume types are included in the overall number of volumes. You can verify it in your setup by disabling monitoring for certain volume and checking the overall number here: SolarWinds Web Interface -> Settings -> All Settings -> License Details -> Orion -> Volumes…

Hello hudsonsoft​ I am not too familiar with Event Log Forwarder, but just to suggest a different approach - could you use Server & Application Monitor? You can create a custom SAM application template with Windows Event Log component and simply monitor mentioned Event IDs. With that approach, you will gain much more…

Hello saeron​ Could you please share with us what are the servers hardware vendor and models for ESX servers? Do you have this issue with all ESX servers? Kind regards, Marcin Kazmierczak.

Hi Guys, I was struggling with this today and tried to convert it to SWQL. Below query is working with NPM 12.5. I am still thinking of how to include label from undp. ---------- SELECT cpsd.DateTime, cpsd.RawStatus as [vSConns], n.Caption FROM Orion.NPM.[CustomPollerStatistics] cpsd INNER JOIN…

Hello, The only option available for SAM templates is to switch the service from Down to "Not running". Here is the screenshot of using "Not Running": --------------- --------------- There is no option to switch up/down status. However you could do it for Alerts and reports. For example, Alert can be triggered when the…

Hello Chuck, First I have checked SolarWinds SDK, but the information about SAM Admin privileges is not available there (maybe I am missing something). The only way I found is a custom SQL query. My test SolarWinds database is "SolarWindsOrionV3" and I am querying table "dbo.APM_WebUserPermissions". In the past, SAM module…

Hello, The easiest way for me would be to use SAM to monitor itself. You can use "AppInsight for SQL", which is available in SAM templates. Once you add SolarWinds instance, you will have very detailed statistics for SQL and (very important) you will have delays for queries. Here is an example:…
