Working with one client here, we actually have a polling engine in another domain and want to try to scan subnets that it has access to that the main poller does not. This would be a great time to be able to assign subnets to different polling engines. I know it may not be something that is widely done, but for this…

All you need to make sure is that the account is an admin within the NPM website. You can create an Orion account of EOC with a simply password and use that to authenticate with the NPM server. This needs to be a full admin in the website with now account limitations. In regards to reports, you have to make sure your EOC…

Usually if that counter 0's out, it's due to a true reboot, or the SNMP service/daemon restarted.

SWQL can be such a pain sometimes. Maybe change to Orion.Volumes.VolumeType

If the new server is running the new version, no it won't cause issues. However, if both the new and old server are pointing to the same database, once the config wizard is run, the old server will not be able to talk to the database anymore due to changes made by the new version.

OK I had the wrong condition in there. Use Value is equal to Down. That should get things working

I bet it's mapping the critical to a down state. You'd need to open a case with SolarWinds to confirm that so they can see if there are mapping for critical/alerted states of this nature. If you also have SAM installed, are you able to pull the Hardware Health from this ESX host (this will show up as an option in List…

I think I remember something where there is a potential issue if you are using crypto keys with the passwords and how NPM handles them. Can you sent the passwords without using the crypto keys? Regards, Matthew Harvey Loop1 Systems

I think it would be a good one. Just make sure to post it here http://thwack.solarwinds.com/community/network-management_tht/orion-network-performance-monitor/orion-network-performance-monitor-feature-requests to get more eyes on it. Regards, Matthew Harvey

The NTA database is not a SQL database. SolarWinds is using Fastbit for the NTA database. If you have a VMWare ESX host, you can always stand up a virtual server for it, provided you have the resources.

Not from what I've found, it basically scans them all per instance. Part of the lack of customization offered via the AppInsight templates. 

Do the retailers have any commonalities such as location, region, or anything like that? The other option would be each retailer as a custom property as a yes/no, then create limitations on those. Then create a limitation for the node, and the interfaces on those nodes, that way they see the switch in terms of CPU, but…

What's going on with your Cisco gear? NPM v10 should be able to work with it.

Unfortunately I don't think there's a free space MIB. I believe there's size and used space, then free space is determined based on that. It's not even a statistic that SolarWinds keeps histroically. Looks like it's calculated on the fly based on the last polled values and calculated values for percent used. You'd probably…

That route would be better, then all you need to do is use the license manager to release the license on the old server prior to shutting it down. 

You can open the Orion Database Manager, connect to the default database and run the query there, or in SQL server Management Studio if you have that.

Can you send me the results of that query I posted previously?

So I would assume that the website is passing your credentials through at that point? What does the login show when you are logged into the Orion website?

very interesting, I've had no issues in Chrome. I'd recommend opening a support case with SolarWinds.

I've seen it on mine too. Maybe we've posted too much (comments and responses) and they're scared of what we'd ask. Is it within a particular forum?

The you should be able to use SAM to setup a Log monitor that scans the log for a specific line when a job completes. You can then set up the component to have a critical state if the line is not found. From there you can set up an alert to trigger when that component is critical. That's just one example. A lot of this is…

So set the alert to Group Member, set the conditions to MemberStatus is equal to down. Now, having the alert set to Group Member, you will need to have the email variable set to ${Node.EmailContact}.

Glad to help out.

Either the server has somehow been able to ping the 10.128.30.219 IP, or the software may have hit a polling issue and hasn't actually pinged the device. The version you are on uses a hybrid polling between a multi-threaded service and single-threaded that had known polling issues. Are you in a position where you can…

m-wilson, it's a good idea. Best to see if we can get the community behind it.

Nope I completely understand, that's why the first option is the best option. The Not ALL is the same as and ALL. The wording for the alerting logic is just off, where you think none would suffice, but the way it translates on the back end is like using an ANY condition group. Using the NOT ALL will get you where you are…

Since it's internal network, you may have to have a VPN connection on the smartphone to allow the connection to the web. Otherwise, you'd need to be able to allow access to the website from outside.

If the rule to email was before the discard it took precedence. So the email was sent letting you know the trap would be discarded then it was discarded. Trap rules work in order based on where they fall on the list.

I'm having this same issue. If I run this from Powershell on my SAM server it works: Invoke-Command -ComputerName ServerName -ScriptBlock {(get-process UCSrvCP).Count} But the minute I run it from a powershell script monitor, then go to get script output, I get "Not Defined"

If there's no config to compare, it may be running into issues trying to determine the changes. You'd be better making sure there is a running and startup config downloaded in order for RTCN to have something to compare to.
