That makes sense. The available IP's aren't used yet, so there shouldn't be a reason to document them. For part #2. I was hoping there was a date stamp in the record of when it was last changed, but I don't see one. Sorry. Here's another workaround idea: I'm not sure if this would be easier, but you could add a custom…

If they don't have rights to Start Monitoring, shouldn't it be greyed out? I'm testing to verify people don't have too many priveledges and it's misleading. If they click the button, it takes a while for the following box to show up.

Thank you for looking into this so quickly. How many points do I get for finding a bug? lol

Sorry it took a while. I wrote a report to see which one's didn't have hardware health info. 1, Cisco (It's already in most of the hardware details - Nexus/Dist/Switch/Core/iSCSI. I'm missing ASA 5520 and 4402.) 2. Dell (I'm polling BadeSwitch info 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.3000.1.2.100.8.1.5,…

Plus, the person creating the diagram may not know the passwords ... like me!

Please also add an option to monitor that a process stays down. We have some services that get restarted & shouldn't be. I tried to set the thresholds to > 0, but it still flagged it as being down, which was an error.

Unfortunately, we don't have Patch Manager.

Add #4 In the SAM Summary, when you click on a node name, it should go to the Node Details (instead of expanding/collapsing the list). I've been expanding the list to get to the application detail page THEN clicking on the node name to get to the node details. (This is a waste of time.) * And, when you expand the list and…

To add on to this request, the reset and alert actions need to be more closely coupled plus aware of the schedule. For instance, * Suppose you don't want to see an alert after normal work hours (because you know the night processes will trigger it), and an alert was triggerred. Once the work day begins & the alert is still…

I sooooo agree. Also, when you click the <Test> button on the subsequent attempts, it should clear out the 'Test failed' box FIRST (or even better, display "Testing ...") before finally displaying the results. It's hard to know if it's finished (since the process button isn't on the page) and the 2nd attempt failed or if…

It applies to either equally, that's why it's so hard decide where to put stuff or where to find it. It drives me crazy!! Especially when you're reading the ideas submitted by others and you can't just read all of them added recently, that you haven't already read or voted on. This interface is not very user friendly in…

Update ... after finishing my first couple maps, I wanted to mention that Visio's re-layout feature was a better fit (using the compact tree with right angle lines) although I still had to move EVERY node and drag lines to get the hierarchial drawing I wanted. A legend of the line speeds is exported. I can see them when I…

It would be awesome if they were both in IPAM and NPM. I use IPAM mainly as my inventory tool since we're not monitoring all of the devices in NPM. I've been manually copying the hardware service tag numbers into IPAM for easier visibility. Also need for: Dell EqualLogic storage 6100 & 6500 & 6510e- member name & serial…

Hmmm... So you think this error is caused by a specific alert? (If it is, it should repeat every "x" minutes and started occurring after someone made changes to the alert definitions.) The error you're seeing may be something else. If it is caused by an alert, since it's not a syntax error, my query probably isn't going to…

I don't have access to this anymore, but I assume it was NetPerfMon Event Log

Should this request be added to the NPM forum? We might get more votes there. I hope you don't mind, but I'm going to add it.

Sorry. Thanks for pointing this out though. Ours is probably broke, but no one noticed since they rarely acknowledge an alert.

Orion Alerts/Advanced Alerts. I can't select the "Alert Lab" to move this idea. Where are these suppose to go?

I agree. I have some items that are unmanaged every evening, but I wanted a subset of this group unmanaged for Saturday (during an upgrade). I entered the Saturday entry via the Console. When the unmanaged nightly job ran, it wiped out my Saturday entry!! Luckily, I had the foresight to create a report & added it to the…

Here's some thoughts on possible parameters (see Outlook's recurring meeting parameters) * Scheduled Reboot Enabled – Yes/No (So you could temporarily suspend it.) * Starting Time (in local time) - * Reboot Frequency – Daily, Weekly, Monthly * For weekly, Days of Week (can choose 1 or multiple) * For monthly, week number…

I haven't developed these yet. But here is the updated sql for the Nodes. All the remaining code is the same. Trigger sql, where trigger query = Node left join AlertStatus on Nodes.NodeID = AlertStatus.ActiveObject where AlertStatus.Acknowledged <> 0 and acknowledgedtime > dateadd(mi, -2, getdate()) and ObjectType in…

Ahh... So when you choose "not running", the status will be running instead of UP & not running instead of down . Clever. Hmmm... I guess I'll still need to add some sort of custom flag so it only alerts when not running for this one process. I don't want alerts for all the processes we want to collect data for (without…

It can be done, but it wasn't easy. Setup a scheduled task then have an alert action that fires the task.

Agree. Also, we need them at the component up/down level. I am getting some SAM Application components alerting as down (for one polling cycle), but they really aren't (caused by some flakey/random issue with the SNMP polling on the Linux oracle box). So, I assumed SAM 6.1.1 had this feature and looked for it, but it…

It's been added. http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3995

Thanks yaquaholic. How about a vote?

We have NPM installed on server 2012 and it's running for the most part. I didn't do the migration, so I'm not sure what all was done. Some issues are: 1. Unmanaged jobs did not migrate - Is there documentation for this? I figured out how to migrate the scheduled tasks & the .cmd files I can change manually (because the…

I ran into this issue Re: SQL Report writing - How to Sort By columns?.

Happened again yesterday. Am I the only one writing custom sql alerts that have syntax errors? Maybe the system should also force you to cllick the button to check the SQL syntax, if it changed. This time, I didn't notice the problem (because I normally don't check this log file) for 12 days and it was logging an error…

You might be able to write a report to get the list you're looking for and export it to pdf. I haven't seen a way to export to excel, although that would be great. Here's the sql for a report, including the custom fields, that I wrote. You will need to modify the WHERE clause, since this one only includes records where my…
