Based on the admin guide for Orion 9, it would appear that you can only import pollers from older versions of Orion or the current Universal Device Poller (UDP). It doesn't appear that it will accept a list of OIDs for import.

Keep in mind that the variables specified by Byron are only available if the alert type is Interface and not Node. Since the alert is for high response time, I wasn't sure if you had defined it as an interface alert.

The server's event log doesn't shed any light on this?

NOTE: Alert manager compares a single node against the trigger conditions of each alert. With that in mind, it's not possible to have a node with more than one node name at a time. The only way I can see this working is with a custom SQL statement. That statement would have to check the status of all three nodes at once,…

I created UnDP pollers for this purpose. However, our UPS devices are APC brand which won't help in your case. You'll need to find the correct OIDs for the Delta brand of UPS. A quick Google search reveals that you might want to start looking under 1.3.6.1.4.1.2254 Good luck!

From the Orion Report Writer, you should be able to File > Export to Adobe PDF file as one of the options.

I'm looking over the Oracle application template that is included with APM 2.0. I don't know too much about it myself but if any of that information can be pulled using an SQL query, the answer would be a yes. Keep in mind though that an Oracle client will need to be installed on the Orion server to make this possible.

Caption doesn't seem to be a valid column in the Interfaces table any longer. Also removed the where condition since it seems to only display a specific NodeID and only when it's down. Otherwise, the query seems valid. select n.nodeid, n.Caption as NodeName, i.InterfaceName, InterfaceLastChange, i.Status, i.StatusLED from…

No, it's not currently possible but you should definitely submit it as a feature request to be considered.

I'm confused. Which report are you using that displays charts?

Are you saying that all three bold sections have to be removed in order for the query to complete? That is to say, if you remove the first two sections and leave the GROUP BY clause in place, it still won't complete?

* Unfortunately, I don't believe subgrouping is possible. At least, I don't see a way to accomplish this as you laid it out. * At this point, the only node-specific APM resource that can be added to the Node Details page is the list of applications assigned to that node. Of course, it'll display operational status as part…

I don't have NetScreen to test with this .undp file but I'll ask some generic questions related to all UnDP poller. I assume you've already imported the .undp file? If so, have you assigned them to the appropriate nodes, in this case, the NetScreen firewalls? Finally, for Web Display, simply make sure you have checked Yes…

This is the same variable I use in most of my alerts and for those recurring alert actions, it's displaying the alert trigger time, not current date and time. Which version of Orion are you using?

I don't think it's been officially announced but I believe that SolarWinds is trying to wean us off of basic alerts. I don't recall any new features being introduced in basic alerts in the last year so I'm assuming that it's "feature frozen" at this point.

I believe you can do this by modifying the report and reversing the order of the fields. For example, take the canned report Top 25 Percent Down - Last Month. By default, it's sorted in descending order by the Percent Down field. To get the bottom 25 fields, you'd simply update the report to sort by the Percent Down field…

When you ping those endpoints from the NTA box, do you see the same problem? What about when pinging the host names from the NTA box?

I'm not sure how specific your alert will be but you can also create trigger conditions for using a combination of any of the following variables * Node ID * Volume ID * Volume Index * VolumeType * VolumeSize I don't believe any of these variables are dependent on the volume label.

I'm completely missing it but what gradient are you referring to again?

I've never used an IBM server so I might be talking out my a** here. Does your IBM server have an SNMP agent installed? If so, it should be relatively easy to set this up in APM. If you don't have an SNMP agent installed, I assume you can create a perl script that can perform this verification. As long as either one of…

Many moons ago, the great Mithrilhall posted about a custom project he completed to do exactly this. Click here for the post where he revealed this project. I have no idea if it still works with the current iteration of Orion but please let us know if it works out for you.

I'm not aware of an application template monitor that can simulate an RDP session and alert if it fails. However, here's a couple of other suggestions * If your backup program can forward SNMP traps when a backup job fails, you can use the Trap Viewer to create an alert. * Alternatively, if failed backup jobs are logged to…

See if the following post helps: RSS Feed for Active Alerts It involves creating a custom XML and batch file so it may work for you depending on your level of comfort.

If this is possible, I'm not aware of a way to do it. The closest thing to this is the delay option for each advanced alert that will fire only if the trigger conditions are met for a certain period of time (e.g. trigger if node is down for at least 5 minutes).

Off the top of my head, the only way I can see to do this with would be create an alert for each location. Then each alert might look something like the following: This alert will trigger when Linux.[identifier] is down but is suppressed when Windows.[identifier] is not down. In other words, it should only trigger when…

There should be a table called Alerts that stores the basic alerts.

In theory, I don't see why this wouldn't work as long as the logs are in the format that the agent can normalize.

Have you tried the instructions outlined in NotePage's Integration FAQ?

I'm pretty sure this isn't possible but I'd be interested to find out otherwise.

See if wrapping parentheses around your OR grouping helps so that it looks like this: UnManaged<>1 AND (Caption Like '528*' OR Caption Like '091*' OR Caption Like '417*' )
