Bumping - I need to get the LogEventID and DateTime values for a syslog or trap as well.

We had a series of servers named after popular local restaurants. At least one server outlived its namesake (literally - the restaurant burned down).

In that case, your basic plastic clamshell package ought to do it

Thanks. Since these are computed fields, I can drop the columns before running an upgrade and add them back in afterward. So far (as far as I can tell) the extra columns haven't broken anything, and they do pull in the data the way I need.

Ah, I just tried all of the Round 1 options and I, too, can vote on John Smith vs. Morgan. I wonder if they only meant to enable one bracket per day?

My users want to monitor databases that have dozens of tablespaces, and which may have new tablespaces added or deleted without notice. I would like a tool that can detect when tablespaces are added or dropped so I don't get yelled at by DBAs when they discover that the new tablespace that they didn't tell me about isn't…

Great! Any idea when this will be included in a patch or upgrade, or is it too soon to say?

The absolute stupidest help call I ever got was in the first couple years of my IT career. My boss - who was primarily responsible for maintaining the handful of PCs in the office - had set up a Compaq desktop for us to use. The PC was plugged into a power strip/surge suppressor (this will become important). The last day…

Can I get a "Divine Intervention" badge to celebrate my ability to scare a system into working just by showing up?

One tiny Lego brick, stepped on in the dark, can bring down even the toughest GI Joe.

See Solarwinds support case #01512719.

When I click on the "Vote" links for the first round (not the play-in), I get the error message "Access to this place or content is restricted. If you think this is a mistake, please contact your administrator or the person who directed you here."

A single Lego brick can make a strong man weep when stepped upon in the dark. Now that's a superpower!

Try this: <span class="s5">SELECT</span><span class="s0"> </span><span class="s5">TOP</span><span class="s0"> </span><span class="s4">10</span><span class="s0"> </span><span class="s20">COUNT</span><span class="s0"> </span><span class="s10">(</span><span class="s11">AlertActiveID</span><span class="s10">)</span><span…

Do you want to report the top 10 for each OS (top 10 Windows nodes + top 10 Linux nodes, + top 10 unknown), or do you just want to limit the top 10 to a specific OS (e.g. top 10, but only look at Windows nodes)?

To uninstall OpenJDK: * Open Windows settings, click on Apps * Find "Solarwinds Platform OpenJDK" in the list of installed apps * Click on "Solarwinds Platform OpenJDK", then click "Uninstall" To reinstall OpenJDK: * Navigate to C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\Installers * Search for a file with a name like *OpenJDKInstaller.msi…

Be aware that Azure Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) has an internal limit of 150 user groups for the OrionGroups claim. If a user has more than 150 group memberships, the SAML response will not include the OrionGroups attribute. Instead, it will include the groups.link attribute, which Solarwinds can't use. If…

Go to the detail page for one of your Juniper devices (e.g. https://yourserver.com/Orion/NetPerfMon/NodeDetails.aspx?NetObject=N:12345 ). Click the arrow icon in the upper left corner to edit the page, and then click the little gear icon where the arrow used to be to open the page settings. Make sure that the Summary page…

The quick fix is to un-check the "Use SSL" box when you run the Configuration Wizard. The long-term fix is described here: learn.microsoft.com/.../certificate-chain-not-trusted

Thanks, that's helpful. Where can I find documentation that explains what the various parameters/body fields mean? For example, in /v1/changeevents, what's the significance of the "id" and "source" fields? 

Thanks. Where can I find details of the API schema, etc? When I follow the link to the API URL on that page, it just takes me to the same page. I'm trying to re-create the Change Event update described in the IP, but it's not working.

Where can I find more information about the SWO API?

I created a script to do this a while ago. Here's my post with the files: thwack.solarwinds.com/.../unmanage-remanage-or-mute-resume-an-item-or-all-items-in-a-group Edit: I forgot I also did this in C#, if that's your preferred…

Same issue after upgrading to 2023.3.1. I had to uninstall the existing Solarwinds OpenJDK and then reinstall it from the Solarwinds installers directory. After that I was able to run Configuration Wizard with no problems.

That error is coming from the Windows OS on your Solarwinds server. If you can force the app to run as Administrator by default, the error should go away and Solarwinds should be able to execute your batch file. Try this: On the Solarwinds server, find your application (E:\Gerald.bat). Right-click on the program and click…

How comfortable are you with scripting? You should be able to retrieve the latitude and longitude from your Cisco devices with an SNMP query. Device latitude should be saved in OID cdlGeoLatitude (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.732.1.5.1.1) and longitude should be in OID cdlGeoLongitude (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.732.1.5.1.3). Your script will…

Oh, good idea. I'll ask about that.

I will give this a try!

Would that get me the account ID for the connection, or would it just get me the fact that the connection occurred and the source IP?

Good to know. It won't do what I need for a recurring report, but it will help if I just need to figure out which utility accounts are still being used.
