In the meantime, this could be a use case for the alert engine. Let's say you have a custom property in each node with the group name or id. You could create an alert that would act upon node membership. Not ideal, but doable!

Nope. As you mentioned, the client currently needs an internet connection to visualize the maps. This is exactly why we have issues with that as most of our stations are in a closed network

Got it wrong too... I was using the long version (all 3 functions), not the usual term...

SWUGs bookings should based on who's in town ;) What about a just before Labour day weekend in George, WA? I'd pay from my own pocket to go. ;)

Here's a workaround: MOD/HACK - NPM 12 Notification on Paused Alert Actions

This should also be available in Service Manager. Pausing alerts as an option before shutting down services to prevent thousands of triggered alerts..

So many things needed... at least we're on the good track

Cant wait for this to happen!

Love it! The efficiency-and-save-our-ass bounty will be part of my next discussion with management

In the subnet selection, If I enter an IP with a 255.255.255.255 subnet mask, it will return an error during discovery (but will not be stated when I click next on that page). When I contacted support, I was told I could not do that, as it is not a subnet, which is kinda wrong. Because of that we have to make 2 discovery…

I found my rant I made 2 years ago.. that experience discouraged me from doing any other attempt so far... How was your SCP certification exam taking experience? I never heard back from proctoring company and lost my voucher that year... That said... I'd be happy if I was to hear that things have changed, and people made…

Thank you very much for this post... I've been raging behind my keyboard for the past hour or two, trying to have UnDP table values displayed as a real table.

I had an issue with custom (aka Studio) pollers, but if you face this, support has a quick fix handy. I have another issue in VNQM regarding RPM probes being worked at. Appart from that, my upgrade was good an easy.

Yes, SDK does not allow modifying the thresholds (at least for now)... You would need a Threshold URI to do so and all of those are null in the db. That said, I was able to modify them in batch via SQL. If no custom threshold is configured on an item, you need to insert a row into the dbo.Thresholds Database.

@"KMSigma.SWI" Running a "full version", but not the same build as yours This might be a bug....

It looks like our wish is (about to be) granted: That said, When querying any of the threshold tables, the URI column is always returned empty... Do you know what would be the format of that URI if I wanted to build it myself?

I suggest you start there: [mention:7562dde88e3442358b41bc1c39c70191:6b577b8c04704e209d29b6772bf67243] Have a great journey :)

You can leverage custom properties on Nodes, Interfaces, groups to discriminate which alarms gets triggered during a specific period. As an example, you set a "Is_Critical" boolean custom property on a node. You use this custom property in the trigger conditions of an alarm. (i.e if Is_Critical = True AND off-hours THEN…

Pagerduty would be great for that indeed. If you need something self-hosted, where the person acknowledge the alarm via a phone call, a Davicom Cortex unit could be the brain that execute that. It's really powerful and you can have multiple automation processes done. Depending on your business rules complexity, some custom…

AFAIK, SolarWinds indeed always triggers PoSh 5.x. As a workaround, you can invoke PS7 from a PS5 script. To also help, you can use the #requires statement at the beginning of your script. https://superuser.com/questions/1555730/how-to-execute-powershell-script-as-powershell-7-from-command-prompt…

Here's how to enable Hardware Health: * https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-enable-hardware-health-monitoring.htm * https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/sam/content/sam-asset-inventory-and-hardware-health-monitoring-requirements.htm

You can do both, it all come down to how your cluster is built. You can monitor both individually via the MGMT interface IP and as a cluster via the VIP. I sometimes tend to do both.

Hardware status, or Hardware Health?

a much simpler approach to SNMP would be to install the SolarWinds Agent on the PC, add it to the NPM inventory, and ensure interfaces are properly enabled for monitoring... Voilà!

On the node detail page, click on "List Resources". From there, you'll see a list of interfaces, volumes and other metrics related items, where you can pick the ones that interest you. If you simply need to remove interfaces, you can do so from the Manage Nodes page, by expanding your target node. you'll see what's…
