  • The swis v3 is the biggest consumer of resources from what I could see.
  • I've opened several tickets with support. Some going to application engineers and others going to development. Suggestions had been given but it wasn't permanent. I'm investigating internally because I am leaning towards this being caused by remnants of previous environment that just rolled over with the upgrades. But…
  • My team asked me to send you a big thanks. let me know if you have the additional information i requested. if not i think we can use the initial information sent. i opened this thread because we urgently needed this help.
  • Super helpful information! Thank you so much. If you don't mind I wanted to dig a little deeper in a few of your answers to get more information. 1. SAML and CAC integration is basically what we where looking for. But the team was in touch with support and support was unable to properly tell our guys how to set this up. We…
  • Yes. This is exactly what I've been doing. But when your in an environment of over 3k network devices and more than half need the ports deleted. Doing this will take a very very long time. This is why I was trying to find a different way.
  • Only thing that is common is that these are access ports. Names differ, locations differ, etc. I've been trying to research this for a while now.
  • Marc, Sql team made things easy for me. I gave them the information we can pull and explained the situation. They came back and said they can accept the information given lifting a weight off my shoulder. The hp-ux issue. We found that the snmp engine on the os was built to work specifically with hp's monitoring software.…
  • Good Sir I think we've communicated several times on here. I have one of your colleagues I am working with. I believe you are with loop1 right? I'm working with Douglas K. Sharp guy. And between him, the several tickets I have with solarwinds, and thwack forum I still can't get my issues resolved haha. You offered some…
  • All great point! And yes everyone hears that at least once in their life time. I agree. But Murphy’s law loves me. Because when I’m working on it everything makes since and works flawlessly the second I need to present it, it fails and proves the point of the other side. The worst for for me is those that fight me on…
  • The interesting part is that we all know Solarwinds isn’t by any means perfect. But when comparing to our solutions that I have worked with it doesn’t really compare. I mean any tool can poll snmp data for example but what it does with the data is what to me at least that makes Solarwinds stand out. But I can see what you…
  • Vinay, It looks like what I expected SolarWinds just never invested more on expanding and building out UCS monitoring. They just placed a little object there to make some quick calls to the API to get data. Not to mention there is alot of talk about known UCS bugs that could also be the case. It's just a headache because…
  • Thank you! Great points. Especially the admin view page. If you don't mind me asking, how did you setup the charts for visuals of the polling loads? Any screenshots you can share by any any chance? And any basic script you might wouldn't mind sharing? This will help me kick start something similar to help me monitor. One…
  • We are trying to do a proof of concept with DPA. However, with the way we have our environment setup, sql team hesitant to give us the permissions DPA requires.
  • The Interesting part is that we do have Riverbed devices and also palo alto and Tipping point devices. All these do some form or another of filtration of packets. Now I've spoke with my network group and they have dug into the logs on these machines and tell me that there are no logs indicating packets are being rejected.…
  • I've tried this several times could never get this to work. SolarWinds would never recognize the entry in the custom property as an email.
  • I greatly appreciate your response. This may or maybe not make you laugh a bit but this has been done already. Let me explain. When I took over this environment 3 years, the environment was in even worst shape. I took one look at it and said this infrastructure will crash in 2 weeks. The Monday after, guess what, it…
  • Yes. I was already aware of this. What I was trying to ask was for assistance outside of these systems. And to see if anyone else has tried experimenting or have used the agents in this way previously.
  • I've a ticket opened with support for months. With regards to this however, I did a delete from on the table within a certain time frame and than did a database maintenance and it fixed the problem. The table has been in a manageable size sense. Only remaining item now is the bug this version has. I've begged and pleaded…
  • Hi Charles, We have been working with Douglas K from your team. But I haven't passed this information to him yet. Haven't had time. But here you go: SQL: 24vCPU's, 100 gigs of ram, Disk's are on a SSD lun on fast policy, 10gig virtual NIC. Everything is over provisioned according to recommendations made by solarwinds. I've…
  • By the way.. Netpath is part of NPM.
  • I may just do that. I was checking with the community just to see, maybe someone had experienced this and had a fix. Since this is a new environment for us and it's in testing mode for the next month I'm not really pressed or rushed to get this result but might have to consider it if there is no response from the community…
  • So in my case, I'm still seeing the errors being logged in my environment. But it doesn't appear to be having any significant effect on functionality. So, it still remains a mystery and I had one support rep tell me it was a "non-issue". I just let it go instead of sweating over it. I would prefer if solarwinds only logged…
  • The discovery will compare information pulled from snmp against information already monitored. And if there are changes it lets you know what the changes are and what actions should be taken towards changes. And fields I had mentioned cannot be changed through discovery those are changed on the snmp settings on the devices…
  • I'll give this a try and see what type of data out put I get. But we may need more. Thank you though for your response.
  • Leon, To help out here is what they are trying too accomplish. 1. Based on a trap message received. So in other words. Autosys is a software the company runs. And it's sending solarwinds trap messages. The messages are than being put into an alert and when the message is sent it also triggers the alert. Basically with this…
  • Good one! Didn't think of that.
  • @"mesverrum" @"adatole" @"aLTeReGo" @"cahunt" , Hi all, I am calling directly to you all because you guys have all greatly helped me in the past and provided me guidance when I couldn't find it anywhere through my own research. Happy to provide any additional information needed. But as you can see from the available I have…
  • hmmm.. Feels like I'm deep in the weeds and about to get tangled up. Or chasing a rabbit down a long dark rabbit hole that has no end in sight. This is why I was turning for help from the community. @"aLTeReGo" , Would you by any chance have any scripts, examples, any tips or tricks, or any guidance and starting points on…
  • I'm having a problem with that stinking previous statcollection. Volumes being monitored are unix volumes. Not sure if this has a difference. But the variable shows in the email instead of the value. Can someone tell me which column and table this previous statcollection variable is pointing too? I'd like to take a look…
  • I opened my own post on this too. Because we see the same. The service fails than failover happens. When really it's not a true failover but rather just a service acting up.
