  • I don't know if there is a canned one, but don't forget, "end" and "write".
  • Try ${SQL: Select CONVERT(int,${<THEAVGVARIABLE})} - that will just chop the decimal point off, not rounding... I don't know that one.
  • I have a similar setup, but I did this: Created a Solarwinds node called Node1 and Node2 using Server's IP - add NIC(s) and local (non-shared) disk(s) for that node Created a Solarwinds node called ResourceGroup1 and ResourceGroup2 using SQL IP - Add shared disk and APM monitors
  • Here is what I would do. 1) install/configure SNMP for all the systems (servers? Windows? Linux?) you want to monitor 2) if possible, obtain a list of IPs for the servers (DNS export?) and use SW discovery to import the nodes, but only get the top cpu and mem, the volumes and the non-loop back NICs. (if you have Server…

  • I would say the biggest thing that will affect any answer to this is "Scope". It's also what will make it a successful implementation on not. What is the Goal? If it is to just implemented NPM where all nodes (200-300) are Windows, Cisco, ESX, or ESXi, then if SNMP is installed and configured already on all of them, and…
  • um, it is important. I am not exactly sure how important, but I don't thing will work right without it. I suggest trying a repair on the "SolarWinds Orion Core Services" and "SolarWinds Orion Network Performance Monitor" from "Add/Remove"/"Programs and Features" and re-running the config wizard. What version are you on?…
  • I am not sure I am completely following - I think you mixed two ideas together. If you want to not poll during specific times, then you would use "Unmanage Scheduling Utility" to stop polling (in start menu). But if you want to poll them all the time, but you want to alert based on "on between 8:00am and 6:00pm" and "off…
  • You'll need to move the "Percent Memory" out of the grouping. Delete the % mem, delete the 2nd "Trigger alert when all", click the first "all", click the "..." and add simple, then change that to the "percent mem", that should make the indenting equal to the "Windows" condition and you should be good.
  • This happens to me when I click on the graph because I am doing something else, then choose and different time interval, then click "submit" instead of refresh. Clicking submit changes the view. Someone else might be doing that, you could remove the ability for other modify views (that would get rid of the "submit" button).
  • Does a dynamic query for your group work? goto Manage Groups, click Add New Group, Name something like "Site YY-XXXX" next, click Add dynamic query, Name "Begins with YY-XXXX" - Object is Node (click add condition) Caption begins with YY-XXXX
  • You could get APM (add on for NPM) and it does that (and a whole lot more).
  • Have you tried netsh? netsh interface show interface netsh interface set interface name="Local Area Connection" admin=DISABLED
  • SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [NetPerfMon].[dbo].[ContainerMemberDefinitions]
  • There are simple ways and slightly more complicated (a little more info about what you are trying to accomplish might get you better information). If you want it to happen when the trap comes in, set up an alert that runs a script that appends it to a text file. If it's historical info, you could use a SQL query like:…
  • Right now there isn't a way using the standard alerts pages, but you can use a custom SQL alert and use this: ( Caption in (Select ContainerMemberSnapshots.Name from ContainerMemberSnapshots inner join Containers on Containers.ContainerID = ContainerMemberSnapshots.ContainerID where Containers.Name = '<*****PUT YOUR GROUP…
  • I actually detect this when Volumes or Interface are not getting any statistics - no need to do any additional collection, you already have the data (or more like, you don't have the data you expect).
  • go to the managed nodes http...../Orion/Nodes/Default.aspx and find the node. Expand it and check off the ones you don't want any more. Scroll to the top and click the delete button. It's a bit annoying because you can't really tell which is being polled right now and which one aren't, but that is the only way I have found…
  • I added a Custom Property to my volumes called "Mute", but you could do the opposite and make it "Alert", then in you alert, you would add the condition that custom Property "Alert" = "Yes". Now every volume you want to alert on would need that property set to Yes. But if you do the "Mute" way to include all except the…
  • The only thing I can think of would be to include surrounding characters ie "* bob *" or "*: bob has*" "* bob *" would get bob and bob smith, but non of the others.
  • Try: ${SQL: select Caption+", " as a from Nodes Where CORESITE = '${Node.CORESITE}' FOR XML PATH} May have some silly stuff in it, but should give you a "," separated list.
  • I have this same problem. It also happens if you are using the windows firewall, the discards are huge. I have just started ignoring it (although I know that is bad).
  • If you made the node (or node group) dependent on the switch (or switch group), then the servers would be marked as unreachable instead of down, so that should get you what you want, right?
  • I think that is right; you can not integrate later (yet, feature request?) if you use NCM 7.0, but if you get NCM 6.1, then you could do it later (by upgrading to 7.0), but 7.0 looks like it has a lot of neat features (which you might not even have a chance to look at it you are time strained). But 6.1 might get you what…
  • The data from that gets stored in TrapVarbinds, you can get it with this SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [Traps] inner join TrapVarbinds on TrapVarbinds.TrapID = Traps.TrapID where IPAddress in ('x.x.x.x','y.y.y.y')
  • I don't think there is a way through an easy GUI, but since SW added the custom SQL alerts, of course you can do it. I think this might be close to what you want; This alerts when the node is not up and not unreachable and this node already has an alert active: WHERE ( (Nodes.Status <> '1') AND (Nodes.Status <> '12') AND…
  • From what I have heard, V1 is the legacy single thread job engine and v2 is a new revamped multi-threaded blah better blah faster blah engine and all the pollers are being re-written to use it, but in the mean time we will have to deal with both pollers till they are all upgraded.
  • have you looked to see what your polling rate % is? /Orion/Admin/Details/Engines.aspx 2nd from the bottom for me. Are you getting close? Mine completion stays at 100 and rate is 32% (I have a little environment)
  • Either duplicate the criteria for your Group (if you are using dynamic group membership), or an Custom SQL alert with: Where Node.Caption in ( SELECT [FullName], [Containers].Name FROM [ContainerMemberSnapshots] inner Join [Containers] on [Containers].ContainerID = [ContainerMemberSnapshots].ContainerID where…
  • A node is a device, router, switch, firewall, server, etc. Each node can have volumes, interface, UnDP, Application (if you have SAM).
