Either of you because my search under APM for anything that pulls a serial number resulted in no hits.

If I'm understanding you properly, you're referring to the grouping function found in the All Applications resource. If so, you know you can group down to three levels. Based on your example, a possible suggestion for the three levels would be: Level 1: Node Location Level 2: Application Template Level 3: [Custom property…

I believe the correct variable is ${IP_Address} for Advanced Alerts. Anyway, I tested and confirmed that both ${IP_Address} and ${DNS} work with the "Execute an external program" action. I'll assume that it would hold true for the "Execute an external VB Script" action as well.

Response time for port 80 would be covered by the TCP Port Monitor. The response time for HTTP monitor would cover time to load the page. SolarWinds staff confirms this in the following thread. HTTP download monitor

Just want to acknowledge that I'm seeing the same thing here on my end. It's not only a problem with testing interface alerts but volume alerts as well.

Couple more questions: What is the difference between a user experience monitor for HTTP and a port monitor for port 80? Thanks. Whereas a port monitor simply checks that a node is listening on the specified port, a User Experience Monitor takes it one step further and makes use of the service on this port as a user would.…

What version of Orion are you running? Unless I'm missing something, I thought that suppression for unmanaged nodes was implied, i.e. you didn't need to specify a condition statement in either the trigger or suppression.

Here's Network_Guru's post regarding one method to accomplish this using custom properties that was posted about a year ago.

My question is can we get more detaild data from MQ , TSM ,websphere through APM. Service and process monitoring is basic, I want to do application specific monitoring on these servers. Can you provide some solid examples of what you might be interested in doing? I'm thinking that Universal Device Pollers (UnDP aka custom…

Almost sounds like you're asking for support of HTML mail support in alerts.

Two ways:* In the web console, under Node Management, simply check the box next to the node and choose Manage/Unmanage from the toolbar. * In the System Manager, open the Node Details for the unmanaged node and simply click Manage.

Have you considering creating a UnDP poller for this? UnDP poller support text values of an OID.

You've got a couple of issues here. Alerts won't forward the alert condition that triggered it. Your alert message could possibly get long and ugly depending on the complexity of the alert triggers if it did. As bleearg13 has discovered, variable modifiers (such as the -previous modifier) only work in basic alerts. As far…

I believe the TNSNAMES.ORA file is a configuration file that stores the connection information to your Oracle databases. At this point, you're probably going to need to ping your Oracle DBA for assistance with this file.

This won't work because the alert will be suppressed if the region is either "Eneabbas" or "West Perths", regardless of its status or type. I believe what bashley was trying to say is that you can use the suppression conditions in your original post. However, it needs to be tweaked as follows: Suppress Alert when any of…

Ah ok, I see. Well, I've zipped up both reports and attached them to this post. You should be able to unzip into the reports folder. Hopefully, this restores the reports for you.

I understand. Keep in mind that I'm not dismissing your feature request. My suggestion was a compromise since it would alleviate the need to manually cross reference the SQL query results in order to find the corresponding node. There is an option that you could integrate into the web console. That would be to add the All…

Are these CPUs nodes that you can add to a group? If so and if you're open to it, it might make sense to create groups based on pairs of nodes. It should be relatively simple to create a single advanced alert if you standardize on the naming convention of these groups.

I'm not aware of any resources for Orion that have the capability of selecting multiple pollers or statistics to graph.

This has been mentioned a couple of times before. The best explanation, provided by this thread is that either the SNMP service was restarted or the 32-bit uptime counter rolled over.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong about this but when you test an alert, it actually tests the trigger action but not the trigger condition.

Oh ok, the number of pollers that you see from the Database Details page is the number of statistics pollers that you have currently configured. They collect various statistics from your network elements such as response time, volume capacity or current memory usage.

I understand. I thought that this was a WAN interface at a remote office that the poller used to reach the switches. Anyway, to address your question, have you already created a group for the four switches and the router? If so, try creating a dependency for that group with the interface as the parent. That should…

When you list resources for the node, do you receive a list of interfaces (and volumes, if applicable)?

Would it be possible to attach a screenshot of the report that you created? Did you modify an existing report? If you created a new report, what type of report did you base it on?

NPM installation automatically installs the SolarWinds Trap Service and SolarWinds Syslog Service. To view the syslogs and traps as they're being received, simply launch the Syslog Viewer or Trap Viewer.

Which version of APM are you running? I must be using an older version because I don't have that component monitor available to me.

Unfortunately, I don't think this is possible. (I'm assuming) it's by design that the variables that can be interpreted are restricted to the trigger "type" you've defined (i.e. Node, Interface, Volume, etc.). Now that I think about it, what you could do is redefine the trigger type as Interface. Then just make sure the…

Can you confirm that if you log into the poller with this account and execute this VB script against the remote device, it is successful?

Can you post a screenshot of the resulting graph based on the code you referenced?
