that would require more rights than I have - either a R/W community string or access to the command "copy". I have tried, the only way I have is to tell my MSS to change the config (which I have to do repeatedly) or get the regex to work. Which would be a permanent fix.

I don't know if it's gonna do you any good, but you can try to put these in the alert: LastBoot: ${LastBoot} Now: ${ShortTime}

One of the words I found funny was kill (k i l l - don't know if it still does it), but in context it said you would just need to **** the process - my imagination put a different word there. k i l l is a perfectly acceptable word when you are talking about computers.

Ah... dang you stateless connections!!!! (UDP) So basically the router generates the log and sends it to the buffer, but there isn't a route yet, so it drops it, does that sound like it? hmm... so how to get the cisco to hold the syslog packet till it has a route... I don't know how to do that or if it is even possible. If…

does Select * from Nodes where [EntityType] = 'Orion.VirtualMachine' give you anything? If that doesn't do it, I don't know how it is figuring it out, sorry... Maybe someone else can help

oh, it sure was... sorry I just saw something about tftp and in the past I have used a batch file to put and then turn around and get a file prior to going out and running a script to have all my router copy their running config to the tftp server. But that's been a little while because I got NCM and I don't have to mess…

What I meant by what "type" is what is in your trigger condition tab. That determines which properties don't need to be qualified. If it is set to Node, then ${Caption} and ${Node.Caption} are the same, but if it is set to interface, the ${Caption} = ${Interface.Caption} and ${Node.Caption} is the caption of the node that…

I think I might have had too much coffee today... if it's an interface alert, just use ${Interface_IP_Address} or ${Interface.Interface_IP_Address} Oh, I am not sure right now, but it might need to be ${Nodes or ${Interfaces with the "s". I am not sure how the alerting engine works, I just give it a couple tries till I…

hmmm we are trying to figure out what ${Year}-${MM}-${DD} ${HH}:${Minute}:${Second} ${AM/PM} and ${AlertTriggerTime} display as. The issue may have to do with how your SQL interprets time. (your location settings changes how SQL looks at dates and times)

I don't see a description field for individual application assignments, but it looks like component assignments have their own (I don't get why, but through the site you can update components description, but not the application... weird). So if it were a component you could use ${SQL:SELECT Description FROM APM_Component…

Oh, WOW... I can now list interfaces, volume and CPU/RAM... awwww but it doesn't add it to polling so I never get any data... sad...

maybe just get rid of all the group settings (I don't think you want group settings in there, right? If it's using group settings then those of us in the same group will keep bumping heads) delete from [NetPerfMon].[dbo].[WebUserSettings] where AccountID = 'DOMAIN\Group1' If they don't come back, yea! If you still don't…

if you turn file system auditing on, that should help find any permission denied (or use procmon). Also, I had to check the check box to replace all child permission on the wwwroot folder once when I was having weird problems (like somehow a single file had bad permissions on it).

if that message keeps showing up every day in that log, open a support ticket and give that to them. When my tempdb ran out of space, it made constraint conflicts too. Support gave me a script to clean it up (it was in a different table than your's though). I now have an APM monitor that checks that log for "] Error " in…

My mdf is 6.3gb and ldf is 300mb, I don't know if my DB to Log ratio will correlate to yours, but there it is.

hmmm... that shouldn't be much of an issue (Although, you might want to throw a little more power at your sql and/or poller/s). Well, they are being polled then, just nothing is collected(?). I don't get it. What about the volumes/interfaces? when they are not reporting in is usually when I blame snmp. How does this one…

The problem with editing the web.config file is that it gets over written when I run the config wizard (I think, or it has, or some how the "TabsMouseOverTimeout" got reset). Is there any way to have Orion make the change and remember it?

the way I enabled the hardware monitoring on my servers when I did the upgrade was I opened Manage Nodes and open by category of physical servers, displayed the IP address, Copied and paste special into excel, then copied them into a one time discovery, ran it (without windows credentials), then imported the already…

hmmm... I don't know. The only thing I can think of right now is that is might have to do with some sort of roll-over happening (was it more than 24 hours?). I'll start giving this some thought, in the mean time, can you see if there was anything out of the norm with that specific occurrence? Or, is it happening all the…

what file was that out of? standard maintenance log is "C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\swdebugMaintenance.log" and mine doesn't have that line (but I don't have NTA). I also checked for my local logs for "shrink" or "shrunk" and I don't have it in any text log.

To expand on what tony said, if you have ncm backing up the configs, then ncm already knows how to log onto your routers and you don't have to worry about that.

I don't know if you already got it, but to get it working right now, I would do "starts with" "10.8.","10.9.","10.1", 10.2", and "10.30." for stores and "10.4.", "10.5.", "10.6." and "10.7." for the central till something else works out. (You would get 10.100-255.x.x too, but you said that would work.) (oh for regex, here…

Ahh... it is my computer being dumb with the spinnie wheel... FireFox on another computer works fine I don't want to work on my computer

Hmm, I think I get it now, you want the alert to be based off two different poller values. That is not how the alert engine works , it only focuses on one poller at a time and you can't compare two values at the same time in one trigger. I do understand there is a value to it and I have seen others trying to do that, but I…

One way can be: top right corner of your Orion Page should have "Help", "Common Components Page Help", "Interface Properties" or "Node Properties" or "Volume Properties". There are more in there, I also found a page that had a lot of them. Plus you can click "Insert Variable" at bottom of message text and find it. You can…

Wow! 270GB? Can you find out what tables are holding all the data? In Visual Studio, right click on the database and Reports, Standard, Disk Usage by Top Tables. Depending on what table is huge, it might give a hint to find the culprit. Switching to SSD (even RAID 1 SSD with 2 disks) or adding more disks to your current…

Assuming you are using 10.1+ You could create a group, Lets call in 1. Add a dynamic Query Add criteria: Then add that group to a top level Map instead of a sub-map containing individual nodes.

With the way the alert is setup in that screen shot, it is all servers unless the individual volume has had the "UsageAlert" set to something other than "Yes" (like no). but you could add another "any" condition group and have that list the servers, but you could remove the "is empty" and then you have to go to each volume…

If you ever want to remove the custom property in the future, you will need to turn off default values. I had that problem removing one when I had a default value, but it wasn't setting the default value too, although I had that property since 8.x so that could be why there was weird stuff with it.

I am just curious, does a ping from cmd work and the solarwinds one have the problem? Also, do you have or could you get a hardware network tap or this to see if the packet is coming to the server? (outside of the OS) the homemade one can be a little flaky, but you get what you pay for.
