  • Most likely the issue is: Linux screen shot, 1GB = 1024*1024*1024 NPM: 1GB = 1000*1000*1000 Solarwinds should changed their calculations.
  • try opening sql and using "update Accounts Set Password = '107-418190326507573368052-0229-09646' where AccountID = 'Admin'" Hopefully that will change the password to "admin"
  • If you don't mind using SQL, you could use: SELECT * FROM [NetPerfMon].[dbo].[SysLog] where IP = '1.1.1.1' and DateTime between '2011/09/01 11:00:00' and '2011/09/01 13:00:00' and save results to a text file or copy paste to excel.
  • I had this once and had to delete them directly from the database. You would use "Delete from AlertStatus where " and something like "TriggerTimeStamp < '2013/04/20'" or "AlertDefID = '<SOME_GUID>' and ActiveObject = 1234". Not sure how comfortable with SQL you are, but thats what I did.
  • Warning is when one ping packet is lost, then if the next poll is lost, it becomes down. If you want a "warning" based on latency, then you might need to make an alert when a node has ave latency > x.
  • I have seen weirdness depending on the order you add the nodes. If the ESX(i) server was already added, then you add the vCenter, the ESX(i) node stays being a stand alone, but if you add it the opposite way, then it is put under the vCenter. The only way I have been able to fix is remove the ESX(i) node from monitoring…
  • you could send the whole email with: Forwarded Trap Message from ${Hostname}:${IP} ${DateTime} : ${MESSAGETYPE} ${MESSAGE} or Uptime: ${vbData1} OID text: ${vbData2} Trap Enterprise: ${vbData6}
  • What I did was create a node for the IP of the my first hop passed the last node I own and set it to icmp only. Then ensured my routing would only go the way I need (static routes so nothing re-routes it around to come from the other side).
  • I came up with a pretty simple solution for this with two custom properties. One called DependsOn and I put the NodeID of the switch or router that has to be up for me to see the Node in that field and created one called DependsOnStatus. Then I created a SQL job that runs this every minute: UPDATE nodes SET…
  • I am pretty sure Orion is fully supported on a VM guest. Does the guest only have Orion and Orion components on it? I don't think that is a requirement, but it makes it a little easier to support because there shouldn't be any conflicts. SolarWinds offers a Fail Over Engine (neverfail's technology configure for Orion…
  • Are these cisco switches? is portfast on? (under each interface does "spanning-tree portfast" show up) If so, you could have had a cascade. The same packet(s) go back and forth between two switches due to a double uplink (think hall of mirrors). Or, use command "show logging" or look on syslog to see if anything shows up.
  • Yeah, I know! you can get the IP, but not the ${Caption}/${NodeName}! it may have changed, but I was told, "well write a script that will change IP to name" (ARG!!) I think what you can get it ${IP}, I don't remember exactly.
  • Your first one should be done once the dependencies are setup right and the alert is for status is down. The second could be setup by having an separate second alert for the WAN devices that is delayed, say 60 minutes, then repeats every 60 minutes. Make the second alert an advanced SQL node alert and add in: where (…
  • The varbinds are sent by the device in the trap, SolarWinds is just separating them out so you can do what you want with them. for example, one of the traps I receive has about 10 varbinds and is a little confusing because you have to search for the spot that says "A/C loss" or "Bad power supply", but when I used…
  • Thank you support!!! So it wasn't the upgrade, but it was that a proxy got configured (I'm not sure how): Disable Default Proxy Server for Orion Virtualization Monitor Connections to VMware vCenter To check to see if a proxy is configured: Netsh Winhttp show proxy I probably could have just removed the proxy too: Netsh…
  • I don't think there is a way to specifically chose the interface you are binding to for Orion. SQL can be bound to a specific port. On SQL server open command prompt and run -> netstat -ano | find "1433" <- (assuming you have SQL running on standard ports) Make sure the IP address is right or is 0.0.0.0 (means any). Are…
  • My maps don't even show up half the time, after the spinning thing goes away, there is no map. I click refresh and get "An unexpected error occured." where the map should be. If I keep hitting F5 or ctrl-F5 it eventually show the map, but then 5 minutes later when the auto refresh come, its gone again. Should we be opening…
  • This is exactly what I want to do as well! I didn't have separate servers for APM and NPM before, but now my APM load is increased ALOT, but NPM is getting swamped out by SAM. I didn't know you could have it on a separate server before! Did you have to get the additional poller license to do that? - He said NPM and APM/SAM…
  • What newkidd is saying will also make the web page cleaner, but like he said, it's a bit of work, but an alternative would be to create a cutom field called "LocalContact" (or similar), fill it with the appropriate email addresses (comma seperated) and make the to or cc field ${LocalContact} . This will only affect who…
  • I would guess yes, but that they won't give it to a non SW employee and only one of their developers would know how to do it. The engine has to use the password, so there must be a common decryption key the engine uses, but I bet that code is kept as secret/hidden as they can possible keep it.
