Also had this error upgrading to 2023.2.

This sounds like this request is related to your virtualization platform and device manufacturer. Once you get your device present SW can Execute an external program in the SolarWinds Platform, like @"jm_sysadmin" mentioned.

Looks like there is a reply from aLTeReGo on this post, "Quick way to look through all alert trigger definitions for a specific custom property?". select * from AlertDefinitionsView WHERE TriggerQuery LIKE '%CustomPropertyName%'

Which custom property are you looking for? The custom property on the alerts property page, or the alert trigger condition? For the alert properties there seems like an easy way to query that out (FROM Orion.AlertConfigurationsCustomProperties) For the alert trigger condition, not seeing an obvious answer but you can…

You can find (and import) that dashboard here: Config Summary [System Dashboard].

ya it should be possible. Little manual depending on how many devices you want to apply this to. I would be tempted to flag these interfaces via custom properties (or groups) to make it easier to query the data out.

I made a reply over here that might help Unmanaged and muted not report with device notes ---please yell if shameless copy/paste is considered spam. Try this (I have some exclusions on this you might want to pull off) SELECT N.NodeName, A.AuditingActionType.ActionTypeDisplayName, AccountID, AuditEventMessage,…

I use the native metrics vs SAM template. I do recommend you leverage the 'orion thresholds' vs a static/hard coded threshold. This will let you make overrides on a per node/volume basis without having to spin off dedicated alerts (while still rolling out a 'standard'). I also include a few custom properties to exclude the…

Had a similar problem, I ended up with a few unmanaged assests on a dashboard to keep track of the various things. Try this (I have some exclusions on this you might want to pull off) SELECT N.NodeName, A.AuditingActionType.ActionTypeDisplayName, AccountID, AuditEventMessage, TimeLoggedUtc, N.DetailsUrl FROM…

You should be able to achieve that. Add an extra step that excludes the alert if all 4 are present. ex: add an extra AND loop (in the scope / ' the following set of objects') , set it to a match against all 4 nodes. Should trigger if 1-3 are present, but not all 4.

I drafted a Alert in my environment to see if the instance counter could be switched to less than (and/or less than equal to). Looks like despite that its a drop down, its only one option (greater than or equal to).

I think we need to adjust your alert. Remove the instance counter option. I would personally make two separate alerts, and let both trigger. This will help communicate criticality as alerts and the node detail page will show that both this node is down, and the 'all x in this group are down' alert. If you want to…

Whats the complex alerting you have configured on the alert? If you just want a ticket if any of the 4 nodes are down I would clear the bottom two check boxes for instance and advanced.

The scheduling utility is UI based, any easier to manage? 

You can do a max of 250 nodes at a time from node management. I also have thousands of nodes and went the script route.

You can use a script, for maintenance mode, and for muting. Also a scheduling utility.

Totally get the dilemma (we monitor page load as well as an impact measure). I have been doing 'newest' on the monthly missions. Wish there was a 'load more' and a 'load all'.

I also have 10's of thousands of interfaces, so I feel your pain. You can always run this by support to see what they say on it. If you get any updates please let me know as I am interested

Not sure if related for you but just an FYI, MSMQ was removed from SolarWinds in 2020.2.6 (and no longer needs to be monitored on SolarWinds servers).

I made a dashboard for my NOC to keep an eye on. I do alert on up/down, and looked into doing alerting and ran into a similar problem you had with all the statuses. What I do in cases like this is alert on not equal to a good status, and if they is overly chatty (like 'Self Test') start excluding 'known conditions' from…

Made a dedicated post here.

Do you have to individually re-arm all of these certificates, or just do one and it renews all of them (every 3 years)?

I ran into an interesting issue that was similar. How many credentials are you adding to the discovery template? (there is a cap around 30)

I get why many companies require retesting, but I wish more would do options for CPE's or community engagement on THWACK. I don't have a lot of time to keep taking tests for certs, and I find the environment of testing to be highly invasive (again I get why you want to prevent cheating but its a major privacy invasion…

Also recommending the free online demo. Sales engineering can likely also give you a guided tour based on your use case/needs.

[quote userid="122564" url="~/product-forums/the-orion-platform/f/report-lab/98491/need-help-with-hanging-reports"]I also know there's a tendency to censor THWACK posts so, I'm going to post this on the Reddit /Solarwinds.[/quote]Not to sidebar/interrupt, but I'v not heard this before and would like to know more (not…

If its only failing after a month, is it a data rollup issue? The default out of the box settings is to roll detail records to daily records.

Looks like its: ${N=SwisEntity;M=Status}

@"danielleh" Following up, you were looking into this.

This post Report for alert frequency (last triggered) might answer your question. SELECT A.Name AS [Alert Name] ,A.LastEdit ,A.CreatedBy ,MAX(AO.LastTriggeredDateTime) AS [Last Triggered] FROM Orion.AlertConfigurations AS A LEFT OUTER JOIN Orion.AlertObjects AS AO ON A.AlertID=AO.AlertID WHERE A.Enabled=TRUE GROUP BY…
