Don't you just love computers! :) At least you seem to have found the problem!

What OIDs are you polling for those? We can then look up the values that those OIDs return and build a sensible alert condition from that. Couple of useful websites I can introduce you to

Looks good Glad to be of help. Do you mind marking my previous reply as the answer - that way it changes the question to "Answered".

Because hrSystemProcesses is reported as a "Rate" (not sure I fully understand the logic behind that, but it is the SolarWinds defaul!) I think you need to change your second line to be "Rate is greater than or equal to 10"

Morning Farooq, As Mav tried explained to you earlier, NPM and NCM both have a SysLog server as part of their install. This is because they are both standalone products, so can't rely on the presence of the other to provide a SysLog Server. Can you have a look at the Services part of your Computer Manager and see what…

Managed to find a printer here I can SNMP with and I get the same behaviour as you. Pretty sure my MIBs are up to date, so might be worth opening a support call. If you do, they usually advise you to reference this forum thread and to post your support call number here, and (finally) to update the thread with the progress…

Sounds like you have it all set up correctly. Usually the next thing to do at this point is use something like WireShark to see if the NetFlow is actually being sent, where it's being sent to, and what details are in the flow exports.

Ah. I'm not sure that such a Resource exists, nor how to create a new Resource (if such a thing is possible). Be interested to find out if you can create your own resources like that though. May come in useful someday!

Hi, Unless you got the queries from your previous post answered, things won't work quite as expected; so I'll try and address that first... polling hostname or ip address: This is the IP address of the device you want to add polling method: most devices: Normally SNMP is the best option here snmp version 2c (default):…

The 'Last boot' option is under the first-level menu title "Select from this list to assign the 'has changed' condition" Just out of interest, what version are you using? I am on "AlertManager Version 2011.1.0". I wonder if you are on an older version that didn't support this type of check?

You may find this old thread of some interest: It was primarily aimed at telnet using PuTTY, but I suspect the concepts are pretty similar.

Sorry for the delay in replying... Managed to sneak away for a long weekend somewhere else! :) I think i get it now. So in my situation, we currently have NPM250 and I'm looking at getting either APM1500 or the unlimited version if I can persuade management. Therefore, I would be able to monitor: * 1750 (or an unlimited…

However, that is the only site I can find that refers…

Might help a little more if you explain exactly what you want SolarWinds to monitor on the device.

I have my suspicions that RegEx isn't working correctly. I've noticed a lot of the lines that have ^[ \t\r\n\v\f]* at the start seem to ignore that RegEx. I removed the [ \t\r\n\v\f]* from the comparrison criteria (i.e. it's now ^Something and it seems to work. Give it a try and if removing the space-checking is causing…

Just noticed that what you are looking for is, at least on my install, already configured by SolarWinds under the 'Example' folder in UnDP. Just in case it's missing from yours, the screenshot below is how they have it configured (I would, however, change the Get Type to be a Get Table):

Here's a though, Jiri... Have you heard of the scripting language called Expect? I'm just wondering if that language (or a mimic of it) would be a useful thing to introduce to NCM. I'm not sure if it would have helped Steve in what he was trying to achieve, but it may be a useful enhancement to the product for some users.

They would. A Custom Property would probably be the best way to exclude. That way you don't have to touch the alert in future - you just have a custom property called "Do Not Alert" or similar which you can set a certain value in to exclude, and then your alery would have an extra simple condition at the top level to say…

Could you post a screen shot of your Trigger Conditions for the alert.

No worries :) Just the customary reminder that if you do raise a support ticket to let us know the ticket number, update us on progress and reference support to this thread. May come in useful if it stops working for one of us somewhere down the line! (Don't worry MarieB... I'm not really after your job! )

I think as you install more add-ons you get more tabs, so there must be some logic for that sort of thing built into the software. Given it's been raised on here, hopefully one of the moderators will pick up on it and add it to the feature request list (or add you as another person who wants this feature if it's already on…

Any page that exists in SolarWinds can be generated as a "Report". All you need is the URL of the page you want emailing.

If you're not monitoring the interface, your only other option is probably to use the syslog from the router. Do all your routers send their syslog entries to the SolarWinds server? If so, you need to create a rule in the "syslog viewer" program on your SolarWinds server to match a relevant entry in a log message.

What hardware is it you're monitoring, particularly the make and model of the host system - e.g. is a Dell Servers, HP ProLiant, etc? If it's HP ProLiant and you have the SIM agents installed I may be able to help ;)

The ENTITY-MIB above also has an entPhysicalAssetID field in the same table with OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.15 We don't set asset ID information on switches so I can't comment as to whether or not this field will get the same value as manually defined in a Cisco-specific MIB.

Given the numerical and heirarchical structure of SNMP and the complexity of the Windows registry tree, I very much doubt there is a way to get registry keys via SNMP. The tree structure would just be too complex; especially when you consider the software that might or might not be installed on a Windows box.

The app is on whatever server you installed SolarWinds onto. It's difficult to give you exact advice on what to block. You need to review what your syslog server is capturing and work out your rules from that. The dialogue box does provide examples on each tab where you'll be defining the rules so you should be able to…

As long as the <string> from the 'snmp-server community <string> RW' command matches the <string> you specify in NTA (and it is an RW line) it should work; even if you have used 'public'. The advice to not use public/private is just best practice since they are a universal default that offers about as much protection as a…

I take it if you run a test when you apply the poller to your nodes you get an value returned?
