what OS are you running? 64 bit? DB restore makes it go away!?!? hmm... that doesn't make any sense! Not a Web server, have you tried re-indexing? oh, also check the maintinance log \ProgramData\Solarwinds\Logs\Orion\swdebugMaintenance.log maybe the rollup is broken (just search for "error").

here is mine when I am looking at an interface. Database Time:1397 ms 91.9 %Business Layer Time:31 ms 2.1 %Other Time:93 ms 6.1 %Total Time:1521 ms 100.0 %View State Size:26 KB

Other Time: 22206 ms 81.8% - I would suspect either something in IIS or the OS itself.

you can also find out if there is a specific part that is slow by looking at the hubble info. to do that change value to "true" in c:\inetpub\solarwinds\web.config (or where your web-site is) for section <add key="HubbleActive" value="true"/>

Oh, to drop them use: TRUNCATE TABLE TrapVarbinds TRUNCATE TABLE Traps To manually grab specific ones, you can use: Delete from Traps Where datetime <= '4/1/2010' Delete from TrapVarBinds where TrapID not in (select TrapID from Traps) I took some of this from here, but you might want to look at creating trap rules like…

Also, you could use PATINDEX( '%pattern%' , expression ) which would leave you with something like: select right(message,len(message) - (patindex(': ',message) + 2) from syslog where patindex(': ',message) < 6 I did not test that in any way, just a basic idea.

I still get some too: check out the last post here: / Basically it says: ------------------------------------------ There should be only two possible sources of false reboot alerts in Orion: 1. Upgrade from 10.0 to 10.1 2. sysUptime counter rollover on the device + restart of NPM services 3. device with faster clocks If…

I was getting this too, sometimes. I think I have fixed it by changing the start-up type of "SolarWindsAlertingEngine" to "Automatic (Delayed Start)". I have no proof, but I think it's because the the Alerting Engine queries it once while it's set to "Unknown" then when it changes to the real date/time of last boot, it…

add "Full JOIN OrionSwitchPortMapping on Interfaces.InterfaceID = OrionSwitchPortMapping.SourceInterfaceID" to your Joins and "OrionSwitchPortMapping.SourceMACAddress AS Source_Port_MAC_Address" to your selection criteria. (full join so you still get the interface even if there isn't a MAC in the Port Mapping)

Oh, like ebradford said, the number of screens can be a little annoying, or beneficial. The ability to have the "Add Node" wizard (?) be a little more customizable as far as how many screens you go through would be awesome. I like the one that show me all the Custom Properties for me to fill out, but some one else may not…

Mine is running in VMware and I love it too. 1 poller 4 vCPUs & 8gb RAM server 2008R2. I have been seeing things where SolarWinds is recommending 8GB now and since it is VM, I just added the extra RAM, no reboot required - heck I didn't even have to leave my desk! (You would have to have 2008R2 to do that)

Also \ProgramData\Solarwinds\Logs\Orion\swdebugMaintenance.log

I only have 5 Monitors on the node now, so the load is already light. I just want the load spread out. The average duration of all the transactions is about 2 minutes and the rate is once every 5. So that should be 40% of the time on one thread. Might be better to do 2 threads to keep it down closer to 20%. I'll work with…

I think the FoE has some health checking features. FoE is actually another software called Neverfail, so that can meet the needs. I think that a second monitoring system is necessary (Who guards the guard?). The first needs to watch the second and the second watch the first. If Solarwinds had a secondary application that…

you can get some more information (not as much as hyper 9 or veeam) if you upgrade NPM to a newer version 10.0 has some, but I would suggest going to the newest 10.1.2. It has some cool stuff, but no fan/power supply info though :(.

Well, I think we need to simplify what you are asking to do because the question you posed is very broad and hard take all in one bite. The first thing is, status of each link, how would you manually check it? Check if the interface is up or down? Do you have specific interface IPs that you can ping to see if a circuit is…

That was also my first question when I was able to start using groups, but I was told that it was not available at this time. I hope it is added to their list of things to do, but I don't know if it was for sure.

I've had problems getting vCenter and ESXi hosts to line up in hierarchy if the ESX was added before the vCenter. So after you get the vCenter polling, you might have to remove the ESX polling and re-add.

Changed the vmware side to 128 (was at 64), and Check Orion and it is/was set at 30. The article also said there would be errors about the query size being rejected in the vpxd log but there aren't any. I was hoping that was going to be it. Plus the test server I am pointing at is only two hosts and ten guests.

Here is what I have to send who acknowledged, but it's not perfect. ${SQL: select top 1 alertname from alertdefinitions where alertdefid in (select alertdefid from alertstatus where activeobject = ${nodeid} and ObjectType = 'Node' order by AcknowledgedTime desc} on ${Nodes.caption} was Acknowledged By: ${SQL: Select top 1…

Because the ${Acknowledged}, ${AcknowledgedBy}, etc are for the alert that is firing. This is actually two alerts, one for the original issue, then a new alert when it was acknowledged (that's one of the reasons I said it's not very pretty).

you could create a seperate custom SQL alert that will create a new alert and can send an email. Add this as the condition for a custom SQL node alert (you'd need to change Nodes.Caption to Interfaces.Caption for interface, etc) inner join AlertStatus on Nodes.Caption = AlertStatus.ObjectName where AlertStatus.Acknowledged…

I use the pattern of "^: Written by" (without the quotes) and it works for me. with your regex, was that two of them or one? If one, it needs "(" ")" around the pattern before the "or", if two... hmmm, not to be silly, but is the check box for enabled check? that *should* work...

I talked to sw when SAM was in beta and they said that it would have to be the NPM team that would need to do it, so I made a feature request here

My issue was resolved by a re-install of the the OS and Orion. (my asp.net was all messed up, so Orion had no chance of working right whether with maps or anything else)

(I might have already posted this, just it's not updating in my browser, if so, sorry) You should also consider using cisco wildbits, or even better, regular expressions! This could get him what he wants and open it up for even more customization.

it would be awesome to have it like cisco's wild bits. I have security camera's and they all fall within a specific range in the subnet. As an example, 192.168.<LOC>.X, where location could be 32-63 (perfect world here) and if x 22 or 23, it is a camera. for a Cisco Access list I would use 192.168.32.22 0.31.0.1 and I…

Third! I think all of us are a little worried, and it is at least in part due to the mystique of it. I read the helpful hints but did not get much out of it. It linked to some you tube videos, but I HATE that technical things are not being written. I feel like it is the perpetuation of the loss of the English language;…

The only time I have had issues getting interfaces is with linux servers. Some distros are alot tighter than others with their default setup. Are all your server 2003, 2008, R2, linux XP, etc? I have also found some of the snmp enabled devices don't always give you access to the nic information.

I know discards should not be a big deal, but I have some applications that get real flaky because of high discards. the 2nd link didn't work do you have a different one?
