Is the error truncated? Can I see the rest?

Hey there, If you're creating a custom SWQL alert it's going to insist that the first two lines reference the Orion.Nodes entity, but beyond that you have complete control to write the rest. Here's your query rewritten in SWQL. Let me know if you have any problems with it but definitely try running it in SWQL Studio first…

You do that already when you use the Report Scheduler. The cleaner way to go about this is to use the 'directlink' account. Once you've created it, any user that hits the system without authenticating will be using this user's permissions. It's good for warroom boards and the like.

You definitely want to stay clear of the maintenance. If it's not running at a convenient time that can be adjusted from its 2:15 AM default under Settings > Polling Settings. -- Steven W. Klassen Programmer Analyst @ Loop1 Systems http://www.loop1systems.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/mrxinu

Ah, that doesn't look like much fun. Try re-running the configuration wizard with all 3 boxes checked: network, services, web. If that doesn't sort it out, it's time to hit up support.

Have your devices send logs to both collectors.

What about returning the size of the page in bytes as the statistic? That won't catch a change that winds up being the exact same number of bytes but how often is that likely to happen? -- Steven W.

Why do you think that SAM requires a certificate? -- Steven W. Klassen Programmer Analyst @ Loop1 Systems http://www.loop1systems.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/mrxinu

You can access your reports by putting your username & password in the URL (just like the Report Scheduler does). You could create a scheduled task that fetches the report to a local file using wget, PowerShell or whatever you're comfortable with. -- Steven "MrXinu" Klassen Hosted Web Help Desk Engineer | Loop1 Systems,…

Don't forget to mark tdanner​'s answer as correct.

Hey chrisfoot​ - if I understand what I'm reading correctly it sounds like you're having no problem getting the $client_path and $database values from the command line arguments but you're not getting the username & password passed in from the SAM credential set? -- Steven W. Klassen Programmer Analyst @ Loop1 Systems…

There's no way to get in the middle of the API and the underlying data like that, but if you really need huge data sets you're probably better off leveraging the SQL views in the database directly. There's one in there with the same name as above (InterfaceTraffic) that merges the same detail/hourly/daily data. Just be…

Can we get a screenshot?

Use the Custom Property Editor (Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Grouping and Access Control) to create an interface custom property called More_Important_Than_Others of type Yes/No. Check the box for the interfaces that are more important. Then create an alert like so: Trigger Condition * Interface > Status is…

They go over the details here:

This goes back to NTA's original design that operated like firewall rules. If you wanted to get a complete picture of traffic in and out you'd put a rule on your serial (Internet-facing) interface inbound and another on your FastEthernet (LAN-facing) interface outbound. So NTA originally only had one command: 'ip…

So this code works in other environments but not this one? Is it possible that you don't have admin rights in NCM for this user?

Hey there, You're looking for the Orion.NPM.Interfaces entity and the query would be the following: SELECT Nodes.Caption AS NodeName ,Interfaces.Caption AS InterfaceName FROM Orion.Nodes AS Nodes JOIN Orion.NPM.Interfaces AS Interfaces ON Nodes.NodeID = Interfaces.NodeID WHERE Interfaces.Status = 2

Hey there, You'll want to set up your development environment and get the orionsdk module installed first: [sklassen@L1HDSandbox ~]$ mkproject thwackUsing base prefix '/usr/local'New python executable in /home/sklassen/.virtualenvs/thwack/bin/python3.5Also creating executable in…

Hi nhartman​! Getting the interface information is actually much easier than that. The SDK provides DiscoverInterfacesOnNode and AddInterfacesOnNode verbs that you can run that provide all the details. Check out the script below: OrionSDK/NPM.DiscoverAndAddInterfacesOnNode.ps1 at master · solarwinds/OrionSDK · GitHub…

Hi there! Answers below. * False. * Settings > UDT Settings > Manage Ports > Click Add Port > Select Nodes > Wait for Polling > Choose Ports. * Likely due to not having them polled in UDT currently.

I assume by rebooting your poller you mean the main NPM install? That's odd that you would get the emails all over again because the active alerts should persist through a reboot - they're in the database after all. Your email alerts aren't set up to send multiple emails are they? I.e., every X minutes.

This is what the complex condition is for. You can use it to compare the value from SolarWinds to another value you define in a custom property (or elsewhere). Before you jump into alert configuration, you have to decide if you want to set a threshold on a per-node or per-volume basis. If you mean to say that when any…

Hey xpowels​, I was looking at the MIB for this and it looks like they've gotten the numbers broken way down. Is it possible that you're getting total connections in the UI and that's a sum of several different numbers? In particular I'm looking at tcpCurClientConnEstablished and tcpCurServerConnEstablished that tracks the…

Check out Orion.AlertHistory.

Hey Kelvin, Capt.Obvious replied to another thread about something similar. Go have a look at the custom SQL trigger & email body he wrote - that should get you going. http://thwack.solarwinds.com/thread/36260

As far as I know that functionality doesn't actually exist yet. -- Steven W. Klassen Programmer Analyst @ Loop1 Systems http://www.loop1systems.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/mrxinu

I'd just create an alert for that value so you know when one of your UPSs starts returning that. Hope this helps! -- Steven W. Klassen Programmer Analyst @ Loop1 Systems http://www.loop1systems.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/mrxinu

I think zackm​ is your only hope.
