  • This is not the answer you're looking for but I figured I'd throw it out there since it sounds like you're creating a new alert. Why not create it as an advanced alert as opposed to a basic alert?
  • Have you tried to use WMI Explorer to browse the server? Maybe you can use it to locate the class(es) related to Lotus Notes? Unfortunately, it will only search on names of classes and not properties. An alternative, if you're so inclined, would be to create a custom poller for OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.334.72.1.1.11.8. I don't run…
  • For advanced alerts, you do have the option of stopping the SolarWinds Alerting Engine service. It not only disables the actions but it essentially disables the alerts altogether. It's not exactly the same as the Temporarily Disable all Actions for All Basic Alerts option in basic alerts so this may not be the ideal…
  • You'll want to use the Product Upgrade Advisor as a guide for your upgrade path. For example, when selecting NPM 10.6.1 as the source and NPM 12.0 as the destination, you'll see that you'll have to go through NPM 11.5.3 first. If you have additional modules besides NPM, you'll want to provide that information as well so…
  • If you don't mind me asking, why are you monitoring the applications if you're not concerned with their up/down status?
  • Besides Network Atlas placing a checkmark next to each node/map that is on the focused map, I'm not sure if any other way to accomplish this.
  • I don't have it but this almost sounds like something Cirrus is designed to monitor. The next iteration of Cirrus will be known as Orion Network Configuration Manager which is supposed to integrate nicely with Orion.
  • This looks useful Denny but I haven't tried it quite yet. Gotta copy down the proper syntax when using this template according to your notes. Would you consider adding a description/notes field to the template so that this kind of information could be stored with the template?
  • Your advanced alert for this should definitely be working the same as the basic alert. Are you monitoring the node status in both the basic and advanced alert or is it the interface that you're monitoring? Would it be possible to post a screenshot of the advanced alert trigger condition?
  • What I need is a service monitoring tool to check all the Orion services, and start/restart if these stop. Since they run as a MS servce, need something that monitors MS apps/services, and alert when this occurs. Solarwinds needs to provide something,, at least to monitor/alert on the SW services if they go down... I can…
  • I'm a little confused. Are you creating/modifying views from the web console? If so, I'm not sure what you mean by "no longer drag nodes in".
  • The only way I know how to do this would be to create an account limitation that includes all devices except for your development device. This way, it won't appear in the list of events under your web console account. However, I see a few problems with this * It's restricted only to your web console account unless you…
  • You should definitely take kweise's suggestion. Along with that, you should modify the alert as follows:* Trigger alert when all of the following apply * Add a condition group and place all of your "IP Address" condition statements in this group * Set the condition group to trigger when any of the following apply
  • I'm not sure this is possible because the standard method of page redirects via HTML requires a meta tag in the <HEAD> section. Instead, are you open to the idea of having each view in a separate tab in Firefox and then automatically rotating between the three tabs? If so, check out the following threads for suggestions.…
  • Currently, there is no supported method to do this. However, this feature has been requested before but I'm uncertain whether it's on the Orion roadmap.
  • Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe NPM and its modules are written in ASP.NET.
  • I'm not aware of any configuration option to change this. However, I believe you can make a change directly to the database to accommodate this. It should go without saying that this won't be supported by SolarWinds and the standard disclaimer: I'm not responsible for any damage that occurs with this change or if you're…

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but these articles apply only to Cisco devices, right? You might want to clarify that in your post title. Otherwise, they're awesome, thanks for sharing!
  • Which component is showing as down when this occurs? What information is displayed when you hover over the info box? How often does it occur?
  • Keep in mind that if you search by any other criteria, the search results will display the nodename alongside that criteria. For example, if you search by IP address, it would display the node name in the first column and their corresponding IP address in the second column. Not exactly what you're looking for but…

  • Have you considered recreating it as an advanced alert? Can you also clarify the problem? You indicate that you're receiving alerts when the node is up but not when it's down, is this correct? Finally, in the future, it's probably best that you post in the Orion Network Performance Monitor forum which will probably get you…
  • When referring to "Groups of Nodes", I'm assuming that's the Account Limitation that you used. Have you tried using the "Groups of Interfaces" limitation?
  • Based on the description and searching on the error message, the problem seems to stem from the fact that either * SVR001 isn't setup for remote SQL connections from the NPM poller or, * the SQL Server instance specified in the User Experience monitor doesn't exist on SVR001 Have you tried connecting and running the query…
  • Is there any particular configuration on IIS (or other) to prevent automatic login ? Perhaps, I'm confused but that's the purpose of a DirectLink account. It's supposed to allow you to login automatically without prompting for login credentials. If you want to prevent automatic login, you'll have to disable/delete the…
  • Are the NCM scripts part of your reset actions?
  • Can you give any more details about this report? What is the purpose or the type of information you're trying to obtain from this report?
  • Yeah, your logic for the trigger condition is sound. Are you having any trouble triggering this alert?
  • Since frank fung didn't mention IPAM in his original post, I assume mrxinu meant to post "Go into your NetFlow settings > IP Address Groups". ;)
  • You would definitely have a need for a custom SQL statement here but I don't know if it's permitted in trigger conditions.
  • Unfortunately, this is not possible now. SNMP tables have been a thorn in APM's side since it was just AM (Application Monitor). Peter's post in the Advanced Alert - OID Table Format thread explains it well. As you can glean from his post, one suggestion that he makes is to create an alert for every row of that OID. As you…
