I know this is an old post but this is a really great idea. For a large environment like mine where we have multiple data centers hosting multiple web applications it would be nice to easily increase capacity as well as build in fault tolerance in this way. For my remote locations where I run players to record "user…

Bump from me too...

I'm in this same boat. We're a large IT organization supporting over 300 hundred network connected sites with multiple data centers. Without the ability to allow everyone to view everything while giving "edit/management" rights to only their nodes (by team/AD group(s)) has led to a management nightmare. Teams are unable to…

Does this include sharing credentials between users? Right now it looks like the default credentials are stored per user.

Agreed, and the last upgrade we did in our environment took 12 hours from start to finish and we didn't even finish the hotfixes in that time. The entire time we talked about how much better it would be if we could have some form of automation, even if it was to manually upgrade the NPM/Orion main server and then from…

I wish I could up vote this more than once.

Totally agree and want this feature. The first thing a web administrator asks for when they see the waterfall chart is a way to go back and look at the data overtime. The alert to email the chart wallyollie​ suggested is a good stop gap but its not a good long term solution.

This is a great idea, but, would you then have each module become a virtual appliance that somehow interfaces with the others? NPM, IPAM, NCM, ect?

Totally agree with this. We monitor over 300 remote sites with 3 data centers and the struggle is real.

I wish I could up vote this a few more times. We find our main app server gets hammered by the IPAM scans and we're trying to find the best way to slide the times to keep them from happening within our core business hours.

Right on, I just bumped up logging and am opening a support case. Thanks for he assist!

Thanks for the response, I took a quick screen shot. As you can see from the steps where the arrow is, there should be a step to select the certificate. The windows security window pops up outside of WPM and can't be recorded so that step is skipped.

I'm having an issue with WPM and certificate authentication. I'm not sure if a windows update or the latest update to the orion platfrom or something else happened in the last month or two but this no longer works. I have a certificate with "Enhanced Key Usage" containing "Client authentication (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2)" and the…

Does SWQL Work for you? I think I caught most of what you guys were going for: SELECT ISNULL(cp.ResponsibleTeam,'No Team Selected') AS [Responsible Team],o.AlertConfigurations.Name AS [Alert Name],o.Node.Caption AS [Node Name],o.EntityCaption AS [Alert Object],o.AlertConfigurations.ObjectType AS [Object…

I'm curious for changes like this, is this something that will be updated in a future release? A number of problems I've run into as of late have been resolved by changing a config file variable. Will this config be over written when I run the Configuration Wizard? What if I reinstall a module or update a module?

I think the question is: If I'm running NPM and don't have VMAN, what's the best way to monitor hosts in SolarWinds. We've gone round and round with the question but we've come to find in my environment pratikmehta003​ that polling with SNMP works best. This allows us to grab all the metrics offered by the host and alert…

This has been my experience as well.

Yeah that's why for me I like to use SWQL as it makes things easier all around. If you can explain what the output should be I might be able to help. What would the report look like you are trying to generate?

Sorry for the late response, which values do you mean? Do you mean show the interface statistics for that time period summarized? Would it be: For the entire month, show each interface and summarized info for the entire month?

aLTeReGo​ , this hot fix does or does not work for NPM versions below 11.5.3? The back and forth in the thread got me confused a bit. We're running 11.5.2, would we have to do a minor dot upgrade then run the hotfix? Or was the correction in the thread above to say you must have 11.5.x?

Use the web based report manager, create a new report, choose custom query. Edit the custom query resource and paste the code into Then click submit and go through the rest of the add report wizard.

fazl-e-azeem​ In the spirit of "tons of ways to do this" here is what might be an easier way. I'm not sure what you're the most comfortable with, but for me most of the time I use SWQL as its more "flexible" for me. Using the GUI you can create a report using a custom table, then the dynamic query builder to do something…

I understand what you mean, but, more for testing in the environment. Run the search for an AD group/user in the NPM web console. Once it fails, CAC toggle the server, run the same search. If it works, you know the issue has to do with what I would guess is the mandatory CAC login settings within your domain. Once the…

This is something I pulled together real quick using SWQL to display "Device Name, Device IP, then "interface" by Admin Up/Down and Oper Status Up/Down along with Total available. I added a where statement to only return "physical interfaces" because I believe that's what the original intent was of the question on this…

I'm not sure if you have found an answer to this question, but, we're finding what looks to be the same limitation. Large groups fail to allow authentication. We haven't done enough testing to find out what that size is but it would be great to have that fixed.

This looked like the fix though its odd that I removed the account via the GUI weeks before. I'll remember to verify the remove action actually removes access via checking the DB for the user account.

I've looked in the Windows Event logs and nothing at the time seems to be relevant.This is odd as its using AD (shows domain\username) and the account within AD is disabled. Any idea what ::1 would lead to? Home makes sense as in from the Server? IIS?

You could post the SWQL code you created here. For people in the future looking to solve a like problem they'll find your post with your answer that they can mark as helpful/like/etc.

Do you mean authentication to your Solarwinds web site? If so you'd use the admin settings and use windows accounts/groups. If you mean you want to go to a website using WPM that requires an AD account to log in, you'd connect to the site and then enter credentials when recording. This would then play back the recording…

This is definitely a must for most of the work I do as well. We own SolarWinds IPAM but went out and bought another IPAM product that had full API integration to work with our automation processes. SolarWinds IPAM was left for the NOC to use for alerting/visibility into DHCP/DNS.
