Yann, There's no UnDP involved. It is pretty much a simple report based off "Current Status of Nodes, Interfaces, .etc" The trick obviously lies in the FILTER design which I just can't hit it right for some reason. Here's that simple Report: SELECT Interfaces.PhysicalAddress AS Physical_Address, Interfaces.Caption AS…

By the way - any ideas on this are very much appreciated. First - how the heck do I 'turn on' an WMI Provider so APM might access it? I've used WMI Explorer to do a search but can not find Win32_TPM.

I'm getting closer...APM might offer something to work within this scenario using WMI. We're about to use Bit-Locker along with TPM security on our laptops. We will want to tag or monitor those systems which have TPM. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa376484(VS.85).aspx I'm testing some of this right now with a…

I constantly use UnDP and you're right it is a place to start. But this is why I mention those MIBs leave a lot to be desired. It doesn't provide a whole lot compared to most other vendors' MIBs, but it is something at least.

I'm using a script within an APM TEMPLATE. Something I found on the Shared Content site. Notice this script works for a non-Domain Controller server (it does what I need) but yet it fails with 'Permission Denied' on what is an actual Domain Controller server. Any idea why?

which SIEM product are you using? we use WEBSENSE but we do very little, or nearly nothing with its SIEM SNMP TRAPS to Orion. and from what i understand it appears SNMP TRAPS are pretty much the only way to monitor SIEM with something like ORION. WEBSENSE will do email notifications on various Client Policy and Web…

thanks for your response Yann. yes it does support the Interfaces MIB and i've since created a Universal Device Poller group for these fiber ports. its not as well done in presentation but it works. QUESTION: is there any way to include Custom Poller (UnDP) ports into the view which is named OVERVIEW? (this may be a…

when you look at your Scheduler are your jobs IDLE or have some other status? when i first started using this Report Scheduler had a lot of problems too but what i ended up doing and its been running like a top since is these two things. and i don't know if this will help your case, but i hope it might. its my two cents…

dan, your instructions sound like what i might need. although i'll have over 150 windows systems. no matter... when you said you did not realize you could schedule 'graphical' reports from Orion what do you mean by that? is that one metric at a time or multiples by HTML page? thanks for your help. i'll get started but may…

Wrong! Only EVAL is on a server with it's own SQL 2005. and PRODUCTION is on 'another' 'different' server and it's SQL 2005 is even on 'another' 'different' server.

we use a common domain account which is inside our Windows Domain Admin group and it also has a domain-policy on it for three password tries or else it will get locked. this same account is used by APM Credentials. yesterday one of our domain controllers was taken off the network and it caused an issue with this account -…

Well I'm certainly impressed... I await the arrival of the package. :)

i'm just wanting to filter out nodes that start with "C" or "A" or "L". otherwise i have to build an very long list of Filters by what i do want which takes a long time.

I started out with these type problems myself and here's what I ended up with to fix my problems. MAYBE it will help your situation. I created a sub-folder in REPORTS just for those reports which will be 'emailed' - this is where I save those EMAIL ONLY reports. Then I created an seperate login account for just emails -…

Jonathan, I have a current need to monitor for a wildcard file extension and this seems to work great, however, what do you think is causing this error in the Template Monitor itself? If I execute the script from the PowerShell CMD line then it works great, but this same SCRIPT inside a SAM PowerShell Monitor fails with…

good idea. thanks. i'll look into that.

When you say you don't see any results, do you mean as in nothing? I ran it (substituting my own custom properties) and it looks good - I even included the Nodes and that adds a little more interest to it for me... SELECT * FROM ( SELECT TOP 10000 CONVERT(DateTime, LTRIM(MONTH(DateTime)) + '/01/' + LTRIM(YEAR(DateTime)),…

Thanks but I got an answer by opening a Support Ticket and here's what was presented to me: Our 'official' requirements are 2GB RAM and 50GB of hard drive space available but I would suggest a VM w/ a 64 bit OS, at least 2 cores, 8 GB RAM and 100GB HD space (anticipating database growth). That should give you plenty of…

You might look into the DMP config and try to use SNMP TRAPS with Solarwinds. Unless those only work with the DM Manager server:

The later..."trying to visualize information collected by HP's QUALITY CENTER". All I know is, it can output VBScripts as it does QA testing. So, I was hoping to make use of that script placed within APM some how to perform a type of app health check. Thanks for the reply.

Thanks - it was in the EDIT of EndPoint Details that fixed this for me. AND - it also answers another post I had out there as well - Thanks again!!!!

Jon, The document you referenced shows using a URL WIDGET, however this does not appear in the Virtualization Manager I have installed. I've looked in several areas for this, but no luck so far. Could it be found elsewhere within the product or perhaps that feature was dropped in this release (4.1) ? Thanks.

my apologies. let me update this for those OIDs. my cut-n-paste failed me early this morning before i had coffee... on this IBM Blade Chassis - the internal Brocade is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.37 and then the Cisco is 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.592

more info... the folder name this strange action creates will always append " _files " to the end of those names, such as: C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Orion\Interface_Utilizations_Yesterday_files

Yes, I’ve reviewed the Admin Guide and tried many variables. The thing is I use this very same email methodology for other things which are working. There seems to only be an issue passing variables from SNMP TRAPS and UnDP. For instance, I just used these variables from an SNMP TRAP and this is what I got: 3/24/2009 8:30…

Here's my challenge... I need to monitor & alert on a WMI metric SYSTEM: Processor Queue Length for anytime it's average goes over the value of 10 within a period of 1minute 40seconds (the time there may be flexible). This is an Exchange monitoring metric given to us from MSFT support. Can you elaborate on where this blue…

thanks for the reply. 1) they are in seperate resources 2) i'll try - each gauge is a different type and with different values 3) when changing the order: the one on top is always blank NOTE: this only occurs with my NETWORK SUMMARY view - they both work (or display correctly) outside of this view

Well, that didn't work. We're about to try it with the local admin account. Do you know what those local accounts are for which were added during the Player install?

we are just trying to monitor it (Windows 2008 R2) and SNMP is not playing well.

Thanks for the reply. I assume that eventually Pps (In/Out) will become available then?
