tdanner​ I agree with Steve, you solved it! Thanks! A big step closer to mass alert export/import automation. On to write a script for that now! P.S. Just a thought here: When the new version of SDK was released with that feature added, shouldn't there be a better guide as to how to export and import alerts from/to file?…

Sure, I used your code: # On system A $ExportedAlert = Invoke-SwisVerb $swis Orion.AlertConfigurations Export 119 Set-Content Alert119.xml $ExportedAlert.InnerText # On system B $AlertXml = Get-Content Alert119.xml Invoke-SwisVerb $swis Orion.AlertConfigurations Import $AlertXml and this error occured: Alert import failed…

Thanks for that, it saved me from a big headache! I was struggling for some time to find why it wasn't being added correctly.

Hey tdanner, Thanks for working on it. I have tried your suggestion and now the error is different: $AlertImportResult.MigrationMessage.'#text' Alert import failed with error: Unexpected end of file has occurred. The following elements are not closed: d2p1:PropertyValue, d2p1:ActionProperty, d2p1:ActionProperties, d…

Thanks zackm. I just wish we had a test environment so I could test it properly. By the way, ex-solarwinds support enginneer here

Thank you for this. i can confirm that I had the exact same problem, and this specific solution helped fix it. Apparently, although we have only one poller, there was a second row of empty null data on the FlowEngines table. Once I removed it, the Netflow Collector Services page showed the correct info and not an error.

Thanks a lot tdanner​. As always your help is spot-on. I did that and it now behaved exactly as expected. In the future, it would be nice to be able to explicitly change all the properties. For convenience, mostly. Thanks, Alex

Thanks a lot madhavan. That did it fine. Please excuse the n00bness!

NPM Version is 11.5.2. I've tried both Windows (SNMP) and Cisco nodes and still getting the same issue: "Caption" as the value of Caption.

Thanks tdanner. I have tried your suggestion but once again the $AlertImportResult.MigrationMessage.'#text' is: Alert import failed with error: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1. The main problem as i see it is, is that the $ExportedAlert variable is of type PS C:\windows\system32>…

Thank you zackm. I am already aware of creating custom poller alerts, but the problem is, I am not looking for a specific value. I am looking for a condition where the poller returns the same value for more than half an hour, no matter what that value is. It is a custom script poller which takes different values…

Hi Jiri, To be honest I used SQL to begin, and then did some debugging by observing how the canned NCM Console specific reports are built. That way I managed to create the reports I needed (in this case for devices not backed up in X days or ever). I found out that the structure of the report file is slightly different,…

Hi Derek, Thanks for the very useful suggestion. I just realized that i can do this also using the new Web alerting engine, by clicking on "Add Section". This way you can combine different objects. Now my challenge is managing to output 2 component statistics from different applications in one alert e-mail

Thanks for that cgregors. It is certainly a step towards what I am looking for. Now if only I could keep the connection context when clicking on links....Also, is it possible to detach whole VIEWS without the rest(top logo/bar etch)?Or would I have to combine many small iframes with detached resources on a page to simulate…

jp, great work. Is this still valid for the latest versions? And how do you implement it after making the appropriate changes? Do you need to create a new stored procedure or what? Thanks

Upon further research, I found an existing undocumented property in the constructed xml: <PreferredPollingMethod> This property is not documented in the Github Discovery page. Could anyone help me change that property from the default SNMP to WMI? I tried explicitly specifying it in the script but it didn't work.

Did you ever get to resolve this issue? I am also having the same problem. Querying interfaces but their captions only show the "Caption" value, instead of the actual name. When I "List Resources" on Orion, they all show fine.
