Mike, If you do not have Toolset installed on the server that is accessing the Web Console of Orion, you can actually turn off that feature that is on by default. 1. Access Orion Web Console 2. Settings > Manage Accounts 3. (Select) Account > Edit 4. (Set) Allow Browser Integration to No And it should stop prompting. If…

Josh, The DateTime column represents the Date/Time that the Polling Engine polled from the router's SNMP-agent for this information. Hope the clarifies.

The Additional Poller needs to be purchased. For most of the modules that needs to be installed on the Additional Poller, they are together in the same package. NTA and IPSLA needs to be installed on the Additional Poller using the full installation.

Hi sr_912, Guess you have answered your own query. The Filter Node (SQL) you can use is VolumePercentUsed > 85, and it works for me in NPM 9.5.1 HTH.

Hi Jeff, You will have to make a connection to the Orion NCM database. Just run the following query, and it should allow a blank password: UPDATE Options SET OptionValue = 'True' WHERE OptionName = 'FirstTimeLogin' HTH.

Hi Michael, Basic Alerts does not have any features to stop false alerts. I would recommend that you try out Advanced Alerts. The following video tutorial should help kick-start the use of Advanced Alerts: www.solarwinds.com/.../OrionAdvancedAlerts.html On using Advanced Alerts, under the "Trigger Condition" tab, you can…

Hi Derek, You might want to confirm the set up of the Cisco 6509 as per document: www.solarwinds.com/.../OrionNetFlowSwitches.pdf Confirm on Rob's recommendation to see if the NTA is listening to 2055, and do a run a wireshark trace on the NPM/NTA server and check to see if flows from the device is coming in. If there…

IMO, there are 2 possible methods. 1. If you have the OID on the device that reflects the status of the fail-over, you can poll it via Universal Device Poller: www.solarwinds.com/.../index.html 2. Alternatively, you can set SNMP Traps to be sent to NPM. You will need to know which is the Trap that you should look out for,…

Kiran, I assume that you have another server (Windows 2008) that is prepared to take the place of the Windows 2003 server The migration document is here - http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/Orion/docs/OrionServerMigration.pdf Orion database holds most of the configurations and statistics. Just remember to backup the…

Hi hehe7nic, For NCM, the backup of the Orion NCM DB will be able to collect most of the configurations that you have collected, and also the Nodes set up. But IMO, another important path that you should not forget is the Orion NCM device templates: \SolarWinds\Configuration Management\DeviceTypes Unless you make changes…

Hi Peter, Have you tried removing the Orion NCM Integration Module from the Add/Remove Programs. Then from there... run the NCM Orion Integration Module installer that is packaged with NCM 6.0 Let us know if that helps.

Halfy, You can try out the following and modify it further until it is close to your requirements: 1. Log into Report Writer 2. (Click) "New" to create a new report 3. Select "Current Status of Nodes, Interfaces, etc." * Note: Not "Current Status of Nodes, Volumes, etc." 4. Navigate to the "Select Fields" tab and configure…

Mike, Just to confirm. You are seeing 9 interface detail statistics on a single InterfaceID for the same date/time? If the Interface Statistics Polling is every 9 mins, you should only see 1 row of statistics at 9 mins interval. There is a change that the Interface itself is set to collect statistics per minute. Run the…

Hi echcomp, You will have to ensure that the device: 555Wireless_R.pcdphones.com is sending Netflow packets to the device. And also, you will have to ensure that there are not firewall that are actively dropping the Netflow packets that are going from the device to the Toolset. To ensure that you have Netflow packets…

Hi fmaggio, Can I confirm if you have added "Stop Processing Trap Rules" in the Alert Actions tab of the rule that you used to discard trap messages from your internal servers? If the Alert Actions tab just have the action: Discard Trap Message You might want to add "Stop Processing Trap Rules" to ensure that any messages…

shuth, From the online guide (http://www.solarwinds.com/NetPerfMon/SolarWinds/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#context=SolarWinds&file=OrionNCMNodeMapping.htm) it states that - "Click Enable Import from Discovery to allow the Network Discovery Engine to import newly discovered nodes into NCM." I tested by removing the…

Hi David, If you want to monitor the latency between routers in geographical regions, there might be an easier way out. Provided the core devices that you are having are Cisco devices, and is IPSLA ready. The IPSLA module will leverage the IPSLA on the Cisco devices and is able to show the latency from one router to…

Hi patriot, I have check it in my test environment, CPU Load and Memory historical charts are still showing for me. Is it not showing data, or erroring out? If you are not having data, is it for interfaces as well? And is it happening only to a specific group of Nodes?

Krfitzgerald, The ifIndex of the interfaces in IF-MIB has changed. This happens to some Cisco devices where you will have to set the ifIndex to persist: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_tech_note09186a0080134eec.shtml You might try to run snmpwalk against the Cisco device and try to match it with…

kimbie, From the document, it is just a general method of enabling SNMP on HP Lefthand, and to set Orion NPM to monitor the Node (IP) of the Lefthand using SNMP. After the Lefthand is added to Orion NPM as a SNMP-enabled Node, you can use the Universal Device Poller (which replaces the now defunct Custom Poller as per…

Hi dl33ta, We would recommend that you open a support ticket for us to investigate.

Hi Ronit, You might want to create Custom Properties for your Nodes/Interfaces depending on the requirements for filtering at your end. The following is a video tutorial to get you started: www.solarwinds.com/.../Orion8CustomProperties.html * Note: Use Node Custom Property if you want to filter by Nodes, and Interface…

Hi Andy, There is a high possibility that the device templates are manually tagged to ASA previously, and the device templates are not set to Auto Config for device template. And there might be discrepancies after the reinstallation (in terms of path) Instead of creating the device as a new device in NCM, go into the ASA…

Hi Ravi, In NPM 10.0, we are using both SNMP and API to poll information from ESX servers. And support for ESX 4 is only added in this version. The ESX 3.5 in my test environment are showing CPU, Memory, Volumes, Interfaces and of course ESX related resources when monitored via NPM 10.0 HTH.

Hi jason2713, In NPM 10.0, there is a feature that has been added: "Group historical data by days" Therefore, in my test, I ensure that the function is enabled, and the following are my settings: Select Fields Select the following fields: Field: Node Name sort: * function: * Field: Volume Description sort: * function: *…

Hi Rim, You might want to open a support ticket for us to assist you, if you have not already so.

Hi Daniel, Orion NPM accepted IPv6, that is why adding the Node as ICMP-only helped. Validation tests are trying to pull out information from the SNMP-agent, but failed. The reason I could think of that is causing the issue is the SNMP-agent on the Huawei device. You might want to try running a snmpwalk from the Orion…

Hi Anil, In Orion NPM, there is a function called Custom Property. You can leverage on it can create groupings of your own, and from there, create Account Limitations. The following are some video tutorials on the SolarWinds page, that will help you kickstart: * Create a custom property using the Manage Custom Properties…

Hi Rasmus, Doing a backup of the database, and restore it on the SQL server that the 2nd server will help. The 2nd NPM that does not have the modules will just let it pass. If you just have Orion NPM, it should generally look at NPM tables in the Orion database, and should not factor in the rest of the tables. But this…

Hi Anthony, After you have retrieved the OIDs that you require to have monitored, it is best that you ensure that the device's SNMP-agent responds to it. Your best bet is to run the snmpwalk tool against the device, and see if the OID that you are trying to monitor via UnDP is showing up in the snmpwalk results. The…
