Just curious but does appending the url with &dataformat=pdf work or is that broken too?

Trap received in engineers toolset. snmpTrapOID = netBotzV2TempSensorTraps.0.2 Trap received in NPM snmpTrapOID=SNMPv2-MIB:snmpTraps.7

As long as you are not discarding the traps they are in the database. You can build more intelligent messages by calling the variables directly. Each line of data is represented by a variable ${vbData1} ${vbData2} etc so you can write out more intelligent traps based on your needs. For example I have some Oracle traps that…

Were the devices added in a discovery or manually? If they are not included in a discovery it won't learn any topology information (a function I understand will be changing in a future release) Also since these are computers are the network devices they are connected to in monitoring? All these devices need to be in…

These vary per device type or application summary For a standard node view I have the following SUMMARY- This includes basic details of the node, CPU/Mem/Disks/Packet Loss/Response Time APP INFO - Shows any and all SAM apps tied to the node ADMIN - Shows any custom properties, which polling engine, and other SolarWinds…

Take a look at this thread it may help http://thwack.solarwinds.com/message/153772#153772

Just curious because I don't want to run into this here...Is it too many connections or is it the connections aren't being properly closed out and they are staying open after disconnect.

Bueller, Bueller.

I would suspect it is because that variable is part of a different table. Try ${Nodes.MachineName}

It basically means that the device you are polling doesn't understand that request it is unsupported on that particular device. Sometimes its a versioning issue on the device or merely an incompatibility. Often you might also find a similar OID in a different tree for instance what might be in OID A for a particular device…

Each alert that is triggered can have a note tied to it. It is definitely possible to create a report showing the active alerts and their associated notes (I used this) but I don't know if it's possible to show a cleared alert and if there was a note associated with it. I would look at trying that.

You would need to create a custom property for those particular nodes and then build an account limitation. Set the custom property to be something like everyone and assign it to all the nodes you want everyone to see and then on the test nodes set it to something like test. You can also do it by simply selecting the nodes…

Can anyone help with this request?

In the nodes table the ObjectSubType column has the data you are looking for. You could modify one of the existing inventory reports to include this data. It will return either ICMP, SNMP, or WMI as the type.

I concur....I actually just wrote a report today that was 1 column worth of data that filled 9 pages.

Well the like button on the new thwack is great...however I can only like this post once. +10 for me....This is a huge need. .

Not sure why I never thought to put a feature request in considering the number of times I've had to write multiple alert rules to do exactly what you are referring to. Great idea!

Is this recorded somewhere? One of the members of my team couldn't make it.

Yes the software still runs you just won't get ongoing support or updates.

There are windows event log entries that occur when this happens. I don't have the event IDs handy but that is how I would tackle it. I'd monitor the Cluster VIP and then have SAM alert when those specific entries occur.

There are canned wireless reports that show this type of info...I'd suggest viewing one of them on the server and checking the SHOW SQL button to get the raw query.

I don't think this can be done currently (I hope I am wrong) but I second this request. I have held admin rights very close to the hip and as a result often have to make simple changes because I don't have that granularity of control over user access. This would be an excellent feature.

From the switch simply enable logging logging (Hostname or IP) that will turn on all syslogging to whatever syslog server address you specify (I assume solarwinds) If you want to look at different options of what severity to log then I would suggest looking here for a start.…

One thing no one has mentioned is that by having these all on the same server you gain some functionality. You have all of your nodes in one place no cross referencing two different systems. If management wants a report on what's being monitored you would have to combine data from two different systems. Any logic you build…

pshanesmith, First of all I completely agree with you....I to would prefer if you could dynamically filter out certain elements (I don't care about optical, removable, or network interfaces on Windows, Linux, Unix, etc) Another thwack user (thanks again Andy) gave me a great workaround to select any number of checkboxes at…

Yes under your views choose manage views and make a copy of the one in question. Then you will probably want to create a custom menu bar for the users needing this view replacing summary with your newly created summary.

This is exactly how I am doing our monitoring of SQL clusters. The only caveat is you have to have some way of knowing a failover has occurred. In this scenario everything should be up at all times (provided the failover occurs quickly enough). One thing on the cluster IP is I would change the name to reflect the DNS…

Here is how I would go about doing this. Before starting assure your licensing is enough to cover all of these elements and that your server can handle the load (SW recommends I think 8 or 9 thousand elements per polling engine) First get a list of IPs for all the networking gear you want to monitor interfaces on. Create a…

Just my two cents but I don't know if memory readings are an accurate thing to compare...take 15 readings consecutively with the same utility and they will probably vary to some degree. Memory and CPU are in a constant state of flux unless the process has a set cap.

Is that particular module still installed and the license just deactivated? I would think you would simply need to uninstall that particular module and rerun the configuration wizard.
