Well, i would say that if you were to only validate, it's best practice. Having a SOT automagically filled with data defeats the purpose. In an ideal world, SOT data goes from the original system (i.e. Netbox) to the ones around (SolarWinds, puppet, chef, etc...) not the other way. In other words, SOT should contain…

I suggest you contact thwackstore@solarwinds.com for more product info! :)

Distributed rules would be a plus! Pre-tagging messages, or filtering as you suggested would decrease workload on the LA server!

That's a great use case for Netpath www.solarwinds.com/.../netpath

Not having Release Notes with the DB is bugging me sometimes... There's no way to make sure that all devices you have in your environment will be taken care of. Usually you realize, when it's too late, that a MIB file disappeared in DB or a newer version of a MIB got uploaded...

What about using ORION_SERVER.FQDN/.../update for MIB deployment, the same way it's done for upgrades? The mechanism is already in place, would simply need a tweak :)

I'm sure that wanine39 would know what i'm talking about

until this feature request is implemented, you can use the following script: thwack.solarwinds.com/.../mib-database-distributor-and-checker

rob.hock, if you need more info, please let me know

Indeed, it works great in Network Atlas, but the WorldMap feature does not allow groups to be added... Only multiple nodes at the same location, but they have to be selected manually and are not updated automatically.

They'll sell you a full version at a ridiculous price for a lab, but still charge you full Maintenance Fee every year... Poisonous gift!

I'm glad i'm not the only one who suggested that... Make sure your vote is counted there too: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3271

I was heading to sleep, but I thought I could tease you with that. I'll try to be more detailed in the next few days * http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3108 * http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3107 * http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3104 * http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3116 *…

a release note for the MIB package would be great, to see if we really need to download and update the MIB file.

Virtual Host Status alert condition are covered in many ways:

Could it be ran on a Raspberry Pi running Windows 10 IOT? or even a Raspbian device using Mono? It would be awesome to use this cheap device. Gaining visibility on GPIO contacts would be a great plus as I would be able to get door contacts and all that good stuff into SolarWinds directly...

I was under this impression, but the only thing we found was that traps for nodes that are not in the inventory can be viewed (or not) by modifying a config file. Unmanaging a device for a maintenance so alerts are not triggered is one thing. But not seing traps or syslog during your maintenance is a pain and can be risky.

Will it be recorded for later review? I will not be able to attend the webinar at said time...

Thanks! But still we have to open and modify each & every report... how 'bout a little checkbox? That being said, it is not great but feasible. Still I would like a way to restrict some reports to admins only...

Would be nice to have the document updated based on NPM12 & SAM6.3 improvements. This document has no reference to RabbitMQ

This is implemented. See https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-setting-custom-status-sw1043.htm & https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/core-node-status-contributors.htm

That's what SAM is for: https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/sam/content/sam-templates-linuxunix-scripting.htm

Yep... Indeed... I called in for a system down issue today, and I only heard music... I was able to finally fix my issue while waiting...

Here's another feature request related to Network Sonar Discovery: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/4808

Love the idea, but I recently found the "tile tab" plugin for Firefox. it works great

That pretty much explain why I wanna do it *grin*

This became available with the apparition of Perfstack: https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/SolarWinds-Performance-Analysis-PerfStack?language=en_US

Week 2: Day 7. The expected answer does not jive with information in the article.

And two more! I believe in this new feature * http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3013 - Worldmaps - Title for location * http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3141 - Wolrdmap - Unmanaged status

I've created a feature request here: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2786 You can vote so it is taken into consideration by the PM. Cheers
