Mine is still showing as answered.

Any way to change this in the SDK? It's going to be a lot easier to change a script than it will be to modify a Program File as I do not have local admin access.

Still getting timeouts unfortunately when I attempt to run your query (even after limiting just to the site/interface as well as just 30 and 90 at the same time. I found this article which mentioned how to increase some timers in NPM but both timers are set well above the time it is actually taking to timeout, so I'm…

Unfortunately at this shop we don't have direct SQL to the SW SQL DB. I'm just using SWQL Studio to form my queries and then creating a datasource in the Reports UI using the query from SWQL Studio. I guess what I'd like to know is whether my query should be valid (my knowledge of using UNION began largely today beyond…

In SWQL Studio I get "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding."

Yeah, it's on interface traffic. Sorry if that wasn't clear. It's a different graph on the same report, but it's utilizing Orion.NPM.InterfaceTraffic now.

I realized after I asked how trivial it would be to pull get this information and export it to a csv. Here's the code I used for anyone in the future that wants to know how often their SNMP credentials are being used: swis = SwisClient(hostname, username, password) writer =…

It appears that the CreateAccount and UpdateAccount verbs will accomplish everything I set out to do. We currently are on 11.5, but this is definitely further motivation to perform the upgrade sooner than later. Thank you for the information. Had I not skimmed and just read the OP, I would have gone to the schema and got…

Appreciate it, Tim.

Follow up if you'll allow me. I'm trying to bar graph multiple time periods (30, 90, 180, 365 days) on the same graph. I am under the impression that there is no way to do this without a UNION ALL, as there is no way to assign multiple data sets to a chart. However, every attempt to do so is timing out but either query on…

Order being the order in which the credentials are tried? I am not seeing that field in Orion.Credential... So basically I could use a for loop to create my list of dictionaries with an incrementer for the Order value? Would it be worth defining order in a more logical way? We have about 25 SNMP credentials that I will…

So you're trying to use the test server to monitor the prod server?

Apologies for a bit of a gravedig. Do you know if this functionality has changed in NPM 12?

Hey, I appreciate you jumping on this so quickly as well as the wiki update.

Actually, neither of those are working. Using OrionSDK Python like so: swis.update(uri, Enabled = False) swis.update(uri, cbQoSEnabled = False) where Uri is from results = swis.query("""SELECT n.Uri FROM Orion.Netflow.Source n WHERE n.InterfaceID=%d""" % inf)

Had to think about what you meant for a second, and then I realized I probably wasn't clear: what I'm looking for is to change collection sources from within SolarWinds NTA to disable NetFlow and cbQoS collection. I think I may have found it though... Netflow.Source.Enabled and cbQoSEnabled?

You're right. Just got it moved, thanks.

Is the list of CredIDs simply a list of credential IDs (and not a dictionary of KVPs including 'Order')? I am currently trying to get a script running and am doing some debugging. I am passing a list of credential IDs e.g. ['41', '42', '43', '44', '45', '46', '47', '48', '49', '50', '51', '52', '53', '68', '69', '79',…

Yep, this is basically what I was getting at. Check this.

You say that the log entry is not being written. Are you implying that the email action is working? If that's the only bit, can you verify that there are not permission/security issues on the D: drive? What is the alert time on the alert (Orion.ActiveAlerts.AlertTime)? Is it before you enabled the new actions?

swis.update(uri + '/CustomProperties', **{property: value}) sorted me out. I had tried using the dictionary format beforehand and wasn't able to get it to work, but it's working now. I knew it was probably something trivial. Thanks.

What kind of device is it (the one you're trying to monitor) and maybe that'll give us more insight?

Generally there is a firewall or access-control list in place on the monitored device to control what can poll from it. You'll want to make sure your new server's IP address is permitted. What kind of device is it and maybe that'll give us more insight?
