Same problem here, and the same solution. Btw, do you happen to have Terminal Server installed on the Windows Server? Markku

Seems like there is still a bug in 9.5 SP4 while changing the node name when adding the node again. If I add an existing node (to be able to edit the discovered SNMP System Name as a node name), the edited node name field is not saved. If I add a totally new node, then the edited node name field is saved. I opened a case…

I would like a report like this: "765 nodes successful. 3 nodes failed: node1 (node1-ip-address): incorrect login node2 (node2-ip-address): device not responding (attempted protocol: SSH) node3 (node3-ip-address): connection refused (attempted protocol: telnet)" Also an option to list also the successful nodes (because…

This sounds interesting, can you provide more detailed information about the solution? What is the exact registry setting? We shouldn't have any problems with the passwords but it is still worth of trying. Markku

Hi, I'm missing the HP ProCurve switches and some others (checked with NPM 9.5 SP3):

.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.838 = "Cisco 880" .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.824 = "Cisco ACE 4710" Thanks!

Note that if you import nodes from NPM, NCM always resets the transfer options for merged existing nodes. So, for example, if you had default connection method set as SSH but then you have some nodes manually set as Telnet, after doing an NPM import, all nodes try to use SSH. There is ticket 91668 open in the support…

This feature would be very useful for us as well, including also the enable command and enable password. Markku

I have still not made this change but i am about to, and then i started to think about other potential issues. basically, I currently have the NCM installed on my main NPM server. this means I have a single syslog service that feeds both NCM and NPM, thus giving the NCM the support it needs for being notified of config…

We would like to see audit logging as well, for example by using the Windows Event logging. If I have understood it correctly, it is "self-cleaning", so you don't have to develop a logic for that. Or maybe using SQL table would be more flexible, just add a "delete audit log entries older than XX days" option to settings.…

Thanks Brandon! We will install the evaluation version but due to the holiday season I'm only able to do that after about 4 weeks, so I asked this here before that to potentionally win some time for the bug fixing (which was hereby not needed). Markku

One thing we've done in NCM 5.x that you may not be aware of is we've added an Orion NPM import job to NCM (Schedule > Create New Job > Import devices from Orion database). This way you only have to make the changes once in NPM and then they will synchronize on a schedule you define. Chris, are you able to check (and…

Hi, sounds interesting. I wonder why nobody in the support desk has mentioned anything about this. Can you tell me the internal bug id so I can point that to support desk? Markku

Ok, in the release notes it says: "You do not need to uninstall your previous version before installing this version of Orion NCM. Shutdown any running Orion NCM applications, and then run the setup program. The setup program will detect and uninstall your previous version without a loss of customizations, other than…

Do you use SSH or telnet? I have bad experiences in ProCurve SSH support (see for example). I haven't noticed this incorrect password problem, but I will definitely test it. The installation we manage has currently about 1600 ProCurves in NCM and NPM, most of them are 2512/2524 and 2510-24. One problem in NCM ProCurve…

Hi, your output indicates that Enter was hit in the login (username) prompt. Is this your actual problem, an extra Enter in the device template? Markku

Hi, just a question, why aren't these announced in the SolarWinds Announcements forum as well? Markku

AFAIK this is not possible, but I would really like to have this feature as well. Markku
