 Great! Thanks! :)

 I'd just like to add I too opened a ticket about this bug back on 9/14 (Case #17839) and was ultimately told this by support: After speaking with Engineering on this. The coding has apparently changed from the previous version of the Orion website vs. v8.5, and has changed the custom html that was created. You will need…

 Ah, that would explain it. I definitely would like this added to the feature request list. I'm also interested in using advanced alerting capabilities with SNMP traps. For example, let alerts be based on OIDs AND custom variables. --Mark.

 Looks like the below worked just fine. ============================================= Traps received where ANY of the following are true: SNMPv2-MIB:snmpTrapOID is equal to CISCO-LATITUDE-MIB:meetingplaceEventsV2.0.6 AND Traps received where ANY of the following are true: mpAlarmDesc contains Multiple failed…

You should be able to use: ${type.<fieldName>} Example: ${Node.MyCustomProperty} I must be doing something wrong, as this isn't working for me. Here is what I'm using: ${DateTime} : ${MESSAGETYPE} ${MESSAGE} Owner: ${Node.SystemManager} When I receive the e-mail I'm getting:11/27/2007 10:08 AM :…

 Great! Thanks so much! I'll give it a try.

 Thanks, but this still doesn't answer my question. --Mark.

You can with the Custom Poller on v8. If you are interested, I will upload the ProLiant OID's for you. I'd be interested in this as well. Thanks!

 For anyone interested, it turns out this issue was due to a full Windows Event Log. Once the Event Log was cleared, the NetFlow services were able to start up.

 Thanks for the link but I still don't understand how I'm supposed to use it. Would I do something like this? ============================================= Traps received where ANY of the following are true: SNMPv2-MIB:snmpTrapOID is equal to CISCO-LATITUDE-MIB:meetingplaceEventsV2.0.6 AND Traps received where ANY of the…

 Thanks for the note. I look forward to the web-based administration you mentioned. We like the product, but it's a pain to use when you have to unmanage 20+ nodes for a maintenance window.

Thanks for the suggestion! It turns out the variable I was trying to round was listed in the DB as a varchar instead of a float or int. However, thank you so much for the response as that link is helpful.

 Ah, good to know I'm not the only one having the issue. Please post back here if they give you a good solution. Thanks!

 Looks like I'm still having the issue. The NetFlow services seem to refuse to start up. I created a ticket for this issue (#22016). Any suggestions would be great.

When a SNMP Trap comes in for system A, I want to trigger an alert that sends an e-mail out and include in that e-mail some custom variables that I have for system A in Orion NPM. For example, a cold start might be received and I might in turn send an e-mail that has the contact information for System A which is grabbed…

 That worked perfectly! Thanks so much for the detailed steps. :D

Nice! I totally missed seeing that post, thanks for pointing it out. :)

It also may be more useful to alert on the Temperature Status rather than the actual Temperature. Look at OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.6.2.6.8.1.6 We alert on anything that's not OK.

I managed to get the results I needed by using the Advanced SQL Reporting features. Here's the SQL command if anyone else wanted to hack it to meet their own needs: SELECT Caption, CustomPollerStatus.Status, CustomPollerStatus.DateTime FROM Nodes LEFT JOIN CustomPollerAssignment ON Nodes.NodeID =…

I'd be interested in learning how to do this as well, however from everything I've read so far, there is no way to do this yet. You do bring up a good idea though...create a custom field called "Maintenance" and then in your alerts create an exception if the "Maintenance" field is set to "Yes" or something like that.

Ah, I figured it out....use "Custom HTML or Text" option in "Customize Node Details". Nice.

 I'm interested in this beta as well.

quote:Originally posted by kcraw99 Something else to keep in mind is that sub-interfaces which you may not want to monitor send flow information once the physical interface flow is enabled. I opened a Cisco TAC case and they said there is no way to "turn off" the flow for the subinterfaces. We have ATM interfaces with…

Bumping....and hoping for an answer.

Ok, I solved this. Basically I had the System Manager limitation as a Selection Box when I should of had it as a Check Box.

 Bumping this back up to the top in hopes that someone can help.

 I found the issue right after I posted. :( The Neflow services are not starting up. If failed when I tried to manually start it as well. I'll see if a system reboot resolves the issue. --Mark.

quote:Originally posted by acherman I agree with bbosley - use the Last Boot property. I monitor this on many devices to watch for reboots. For the most part I just have an email sent when a device reboots. If it's a critical device I send a text message to my phone. How do you get it to remove the alert once it's been…

I found a work around instead. I moved the PS Condition from a Get Next to a Get Table and created a separate Tabular section instead. Then I removed the status section.

Ah, ok. Thanks for the information. I appreciate the reply.
