  • The following entry from the Engineer's Toolset MIB Browser may be of use: CISCO-ENVMON-MIB:ciscoEnvMonSupplyStatusTable OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.5 Access: Not-Accessible Type: Sequence (Don't be over-concerned that it says "Not-Accessible" - this is because it is a table, so you need to delve deeper into it.) Hope this…

  • On your SolarWinds server, go to the list of services and ensure that SolarWinds Information Service and SolarWinds Information Service V3 are both running.

  • Let's take MS Windows 2008 as an example... There is a template called "Windows Server 2003-2008" Within that template there are a number of "component" monitors, such as "Network Connections", "Page File Usage", "Disk Queue Length" and so on. In fact, this particular template has 8 components that it monitors. However,…

  • You need to ensure that NetFlow is enabled on your device and set to export its flows to your SolarWinds server on the correct port. By the sounds of it, either NetFlow isn't configured at all, the exporter isn't configured, the exporter is configured to the wrong IP address, or you have the exporter talking to the server…

  • From what Engineers Toolset is telling me, the OID you reference is probably not the one you want to be monitoring: CISCO-ENVMON-MIB:ciscoEnvMonSupplySource OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.5.1.4 Access: Read-Only Type: Integer The power supply source. unknown - Power supply source unknown ac - AC power supply dc - DC power…

  • Sounds like an issue with the database. Have you tried going to the link shown in that message and installing the compent being asked for?

  • OIDs usually stay the same regardless of the age of the equipment. I've replied to your other post with an OID you may want to have a look at.

  • Given what I've seen in the past, I think the drop-down is populated with the values that currently exist - have a look at your drop-down when you use something like the amount of disk space used: So I wouldn't worry too much as long as the text matches. I'm sure I've had occasions where I've typed a value in myself and it…

  • Probably where you want to be looking is the "Custom Summary" page which is on the "Home" tab. If you click on the "Customize Page" link then on the "Edit" button next to the 2 column widths you can configure the page to have 3 columns, each with a width of your choosing. You can then edit the "Custom Object Resource"…

  • I take it setting the "Only save Configs that have changed" option in the "Download Config" tab of the job settings still dumps a message to say that the config hasn't changed? (I don't use that option, hence I'm not sure what its behaviour does.)

  • I assume when you say "Network Monitor" it is the "Network Performance Monitor" you refer to? If so, I think you may be on a slightly older version as I've just checked mine and I can enter a username and password by ticking on a box labelled "This SMTP server requires Authentication" as in the screenshot below. I also see…
    in Email alerts possible with gmail as outgoing server? Comment by nrms July 2011
  • If I remember correctly, the server name is somehow encoded into the activation file/string that you send to SolarWinds. If you look at your Customer Portal, the server name is recorded as part of the activation.

  • I'm not sure there is an easy way to do it. You're probably looking at some sort of Advanced SQL report based on a join between the dbo.Nodes table and the dbo.Volumes table, using the NodeID as your key. My SQL is a little on the rusty side, and I've not had my morning coffee yet so I'm not going to attempt to create any…
    in Server without FS Comment by nrms May 2011
  • I am making a couple of assumptions here, so this may not be 100% what you're looking for... NPM allocates a "Volume Type" which includes "Fixed Disk", "Virtual Memory" and "RAM" (they are the 3 my setup generates.) If you do a report that does a SUM on the volume size, and includes the Volume Type as a field you end up…

  • Old thread back from the dead! I don't think SolarWinds has the ability to do a comparrison of 2 UnDP readings yet. (Feature request, anyone?) However, in the case of the OP's issue (and assuming only Dell servers are covered) there it would be better to alert based on the OI 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1.700.20.1.5 which is the…

  • I'm not sure it's possible in NPM; but I know you can get this sort of information out of NCM instead. There is a built-in report in the Inventory section called "Switch Ports" which gives details of the VLAN assigned to each active network port. Looking at the database for NPM, I cannot see a field for VLAN in the…

  • You need to make sure that your account has a Reports directory set. Go to Settings, then click on "Manage Accounts". find your account and check the box at the left and click on "Edit" at the top of the account list. Toward the bottom of the account settings page there is an option called ""Report Folder". You need to…

  • It's possible you're running into issues due to your ogirinal DB coming from 9.1.3 but your new server running 10.4. Some of the updates to NPM have likely included changes to the DB schema which may be causing internal issues when trying to update the DB. This is especially likely given there is a major version difference…

  • Hi Pankaj, What do you mean by "local system drive"? Do you mean any physical/logical drive on the machine itself, or do you mean the drive where Windows is installed?

  • Personally this is why I use a (free) external tool to cover my Telnet/SSH needs. If you use puTTY it is possible to change the default settings such that it will log the output of a session to a text file. When you start puTTY just click on the "Logging" option under "Settings", I tend to choose the "All session output"…

  • Have a look at OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.3.6.1 This returns an interger value which corresponds to a model number. I think you need to use the ENUM type of return in UDP to get the model name instead of its code. The start of the details from the Engineer's Toolset is: OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.3.6.1 Access: Read-Only Type: Integer…

  • Fortinet is listed in the SNMP Browser in Engineer's Toolset, and appears in the UnDP on my NPM server, so it should do. What you need to do is find the relevant SNMP OIDs to monitor. They're somewhere under 1.3.6.1.4.12356. The following may be a good place to start: FORTIOS-300-MIB:fnHwSensorEntry OID:…
