 Not sure if they fixed this piece or not, but I had to drop all of the custom poller tables before my implementation would go forward.

I set up frames when 9.5 first came out due to the response time issues on my web site. We like the layout and are sticking with it. I'd like to be able to have a frame across the top with just the menu bar/logout and not in the individual frames. see below.

Nicely done ScottD!! Thanks

that's awesome, did you vote it up?

the NCM docs has section called "regular expression pattern matching" that goes into details and one of the examples is: service tcp-keepalives-in.*\n(.*\n)*.*service tcp-keepalives-outFinds the first line service tcp-keepalives-in and then looks for service tcp-keepalives-out on any line after that. The regular expression…

All, after fixing a HUGE SQL issue (needed to enable AWE, which may or may not be a duh for most!) my environment is smokin'. We have a separate SQL (clustered) environment with SAN (across 6 disks). Once I enabled AWE with a minimum of 8GB RAM used by SQL, its doing very well. Avg queue time is maybe 2. SQL boxes are 4…

I don't see that as an option. I'm running 10.2.2 for NPM and 3.5.1 for IPSLA. I'm upgrading both this weekend and will try then. thanks.

search for "report node credentials" gives: Credentials Used By WMI Nodes Re: Which credential used? https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3719

SELECT Nodes.NodeID, Nodes.HName, Interfaces.InterfaceID, Interfaces.Caption, Interfaces.OutBandwidth, Interfaces.InBandwidth, COUNT(*) FROM (InterfaceTraffic_Detail INNER JOIN Interfaces ON (Interfaces.InterfaceID = InterfaceTraffic_Detail.InterfaceID) ) INNER JOIN Nodes ON (Nodes.NodeID = Interfaces.NodeID) WHERE…

I also understood these to be FW ACL Rule based discards and filtered those out from the top 10 lists by using a filter (click edit, then add something like this in the filter::: (Interfaces.NodeID NOT IN (352,353,354,355,356,357,651,652,653,654,655,656,657,658,659,660,661,662,424,425,450,704,705) AND Interfaces.Caption…

I am running the latest. I'll open a case and post info here.

great info byrona...I've been fighting this for a while. I have all of my polling on "additional engines" and use the main NPM for SNMP traps and syslog, as well as all the other inherent stuff that comes with being the main engine. I will try to switch it around so syslogging is on another engine and see if that helps.…

not sure what you are looking for? I don't think you can view another level of categorizing...so in my example, have a group AP then subgroups XRT,ENT, etc... I don't know that the app can do that. You could certainly create that with custom properties (columns) and SQL to break out the names, but when you went to view, it…

Stoned is correct...I use the first part of the node name...we are very customer connection centric and I group on a custom field (GroupNPM) which is based on our router naming convention - see diagram. below is SQL I use to do this in a nightly job... UPDATE Nodes SET NPMGroup = ( SELECT SUBSTRING( Caption, 1,( ( Select…

are you running NPM? if not, then I don't believe so. If yes, then follow Nandish's advice. there is a job in NCM to import from NPM and NPM can do discoveries.

 I was also having this when I was having SQL performance issues. I resolved by enabling AWE memory allocation on the SQL server.

another thing that made a huge difference for me: I wrote a batch file to delete the temporary files on the web server(s) and used scheduler to run it every 2 hours. I have a very deep map with lots of objects (16 6500s fully populated with every port on a map page as an object). my response times are great...SQL response…

Thanks for the great info. I've changed them in orion in the interface details and am waiting to check and see if they change back or not, but it sounds like they wont! Excellent info, thanks.

I agree w/ jmodjeski -> the policy builder is a separate GUI and very useful for this type of thing. you can check interfaces specific parameters by using "check config block" area where you put in string to match beginning and end of block. for cisco this might look like: start: ^interface end: !

I installed with no issues and it seems to have fixed my map problems (did it 3 hrs ago). I also see swjobengineworker processes taking more resources on my pollers, but not enough to disable. not having the issue with the w3wp process.

Found this feature request: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2508

assuming not a typo, the ${} macro has to be same "column" name as custom property. "<strong>Documents:</strong> ${Documentats}<br>" Though HTML may just interpret that directly and not make it a link. try: "<strong><a href="${Documentation}"> Documents:</a></strong><br>"

I ended up customizing the snot out of this. Audits had our teams asking for ack with ticket number and tech initials in ack notes before allowing reset. that is great OOB way to require if only ack needed.

I have been running my SQL on VM successfully for years with no issues. FYI

My primary poller can't seem to keep up with it. It doesn't appear to be a resources thing either. CPU/MEM/DISK is fine... We have most of the additional modules and they HAVE to run on the main NPM. I was trying to off-load. SW? is that the case? thanks all.

I know this is a bit older, but wondering how I can manage the user account issue with multiple domains that don't use trusts. Is there a way to have APM use "Inherit from node credentials" or "inherit from template" that would be ideal. Thoughts aLTeReGo‌, et. al.? thanks.

Adotole, if you don't mind sharing; what is your SQL (specifically storage) running on? Thanks

not 100% sure how to associate that device to this view by default off top of my head...

you can also use concat...basically you just add the HTML code into the SQL query code CONCAT('<a href="',n.caption,'</a>')">thwack.solarwinds.com/.../View.aspx as Caption,
