To add to what Sohail is stating. Using Group and Dependancies will be much more managable to future Admins that work on SolarWinds with you. If you work all of this trhough your alerts you will cause newer Admins a slow-down in support when trying to find what alert and what trigger is causing your issue. Using Groups…

To add to this when I test using my account from the Edit Creds screen when adding a gateway the test will pass successfully, but when I try to save and submit. I get the following error. Device may be down, busy, or credentials are invalid. I can telnet from Putty to the device and log in and run the 3 given commands…

Forgot to say thanks for the correction!

I see. I went off the upgrade information posted in the SAM Admin guide that was sent out with 5.2 just so you know. Might want to make sure this gets updated if it will be sent out with the product. Sorry for the mis-information and thanks for the quick correction.

Location should be changed in this file. /etc/snmp/s​nmpd.conf Contact should be changed in this file. /etc/snmp/s​nmp.local.c​onf

I have only interfaced with Avaya VoIP PBX systems. I haven't had the joy of messing with their switching products. I see the problem though, and I won't deny that it's an odd one for sure. Have you tried to remove the Description, and save the config. Then rediscover in SW to see if the Port shows up with no name? Once…

Yes this is true. Either way SMNP in Windows will be around for a bit. Older applications and slow adoption of a newer OS are always extremely common, and widespread. Most Enterprise users are just getting to 2008 R2, and some can't because of older applications that can't handle newer systems. This will leave customers…

He has the correct Alert Group Trigger for the Bottom section. He is stating that ANY of those conditions can be true. ANY = OR / ALL = AND in SQL. So he is stating the Status can be Down OR Unknown OR Unreachable and it should fire off an alert. Changing it would state that all 3 statues would need to be true to trigger.…

This won't happen on the Win32 app. They are shelving the app and moving it to the web front end. I would imagine this is something you will be able to do on the web front end without an issue.

Not to sure why you guys haven't taken the advice above and run a MIB walk on these machines and then searching for the OID's that are needed. I would also imagine that HP would have these MIB files and OID's you are looking for on their support forumns or from a support technician. I know Cisco provides this and even a…

AIX has the same issue with SNMP unless you apply a Hot Fix they offer. I have began to see a pattern with IBM that they kind of care less to conform to the industry standard on SNMP implementation and using MIB II as well on a lot of their enterprise systems. Not all of them, but some.

Yes, the original works. They all work from the report writer, and I am trying them on my account on the web console which is an Admin with full rights and no view limitations.

I may be able to help a little bit for you guys with placement. For the general map that pops up on the main screen that the MyHack.aspx generates I use these values to move the Zoom and Lat/Long for the map. I have added comments to the section of code below in Bold Italics so you can see what I change and where it's…

Very nice. Will have to test this out when I get a chance in a Lab.

I'm not good with it either.. All of my work came from doing debugs and google searching.. maybe able to give you a better clue, but I like what you are doing here, and making this independent from other custom properties. Good Work!

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.. I am OCD, so that stuff bothers me to no end!!

Sorry I wasn't around for any input on your issues. I'm glad that you were able to get this to work finally. It's a nice piece once you have it implemented. I know my co-worker was having issues to getting the Global weather maps to work and we could only get the US weather working. If you get that up and going let us…

My NOC view for the "Glass Watchers". This is displayed on a 55" Flat Screen for my Support Center. All of our Locations and the equpment at each location.

Those are what ever you set them as when built. I would just creat the new flat account against the SQL server. If you are running on SQL Express you will need someone to chime in. I use the SQL Management studio, but I'm not a SQL guy so I don't know if you can use that with Express or if the interfacing to create an…

You should have something like this. oConn = New System.Data.SQLClient.SQLConnection ("Data Source=SOLARWINDS;Database=NetPerfMon;uid=SWMaps;pwd=Password;") This is what mine looks like almost I just changed the acutal values on Source and Password, but you should get the idea.. The Data Source is the Server/Computer Name.…

Ya sometimes when you use Google to look up Long/Lat the URL that gives you the cords doesn't update correctly and will have the last searched location. I had to refresh the search a couple times to make sure the URL updated properly against my search address.

So I did some work to get this working on IE8. JScript had some changes to the syntax and the way IE8 and IE9 process this. The break was found here. for (var wank in Gifs) { var image = image_dir+Gifs[wank]; var marklatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(States[wank][0], States[wank][1]); var marker = new google.maps.Marker({…

I use GMAP as a Custom property and use True/False or Yes/No values. I then place a true statement on any node I want displayed on the map. In your DB Query statement where you took out Country='US' replace this with GMAP='True". Now you will be using this custom property for the filter and can control it with True/False…

I just changed up the LAT and LONG coding in all the files to re-position the node placement to my locations exact cities. That being said I had to create my own custom property called GMAP using true/false values to mark nodes for filtering instead of Country='US'. I then added my own 3 letter Country codes to the state…

No worries I think its great that it works this way. I don't have to waste another license in my Websense proxy just for a server to hit 3 sites.

Will do! Ya my list grows each day as well, but management will easily re-direct me once they get the API in house. I just need to get support internally or externally for the coding portion once we have it, and we should be able to move along quickly. I have also found that my local machine is doing the calling out to the…

It works great. Just trying to sort out the initial settings for centering of the map and zoom level. I am displaying this on a 55 inch screen in a single column set to use the entire space on the webpage. It's a challenge that is for sure!! Any help on that would be much appreciated! Also, I will hopefully be re-working…

Removing the Country='US' from the SQL query string actually didn't work for me since we are a Global company and have sites outside the US. I was having 2 nodes pull up with NULL values in the State Column and not allowing the map to populate my nodes. I even tried to go through all my nodes and delete the State fields to…

Watch out using the Advanced Properties for Latitude. This is misspelled using the pre-built Custom Property you can find under the Show Advanced Properties, and won't work unless you update the code to see the incorrect spelling. I had to work on this for 2 hours trying to find why it wasn't pulling nodes to my map until…

I need some help on this. We have nodes that exisit in the US and nodes outside the US. I have populated all the LAT&LONG for my nodes, but only the nodes in the US will populate. I can't seem to get any nodes from other countries to show up. I have even removed the AND Country='US' statement, but that only took all of my…
