Network_Guru had a similar issue related to Nexus stormcontrol: Re: Nexus interface transmit discards

If alert actions are failing we should probably have our support team dig into it: http://www.solarwinds.com/support/

SCP server certainly should work and supports file transfer and directory listing. Can we validate that the service is started and bound to TCP 22?

NPM can certainly poll provisioned volumes through the host, but if you are looking to interrogate the array directly, SRM may be a better choice.

Have we tried some test conditions on the default alerts to see what happens? What trigger actions do we have configured?

If you go to "Customize Page" and add a resource, do you see the UnDP Radial Gauge available? Once added it can be customized to select the poller / gauge details.

Have we tried to use SNMP polling instead of WMI?

It may be best to engage support on this: SolarWinds Customer Support - We're Here to Help

Patrick, Are you seeing data gaps and other weird behavior? It could be a UI artifact, but if you are seeing data issues, a support call may be in order.

Surely- there is a "Edit Multiple Values" button in the editor, and you can also right-click / Copy / Paste.

Would you perhaps be able to post a screenshot of the error you're receiving along with the OID?

For IPv6 discovery- select "Specific Nodes" and paste in the desired nodes.

Surely, you could query the SQL DB directly, or use the API and SWQL to do so. Some script examples are available in our SDK: Orion SDK Information

As 10.1.3 is a couple years old and we have had a bunch of trap bug fixes since then, and upgrade to 10.5 might be in order. Out of curiosity, what are you using for event correlation?

Sounds like a support ticket may be the best path forward here: http://www.solarwinds.com/support/

The ability to manually change MachineType (and other "Node Details" fields) shows up for the first time in NPM v12 beta2: NPM v12 Beta2 Now Available

No direct macro, but SQL workaround along the lines of: ${SQL: SELECT Notification_Type FROM AlertConfigurationsCustomProperties where AlertID=${N=Alerting;M=AlertID} }

So here's how we calculate packet loss: Percent Packet Loss Orion NPM calculates percent packet loss using ICMP ping requests made on the Default Poll Interval. Orion NPM pings monitored devices and records the results of the ten most recent ping attempts. Percent packet loss is expressed as the the number of failed ping…

This is unfortunately a limitation of net-snmp. There is a possibility to use a SAM template and apply a calculation as referenced here: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/message/178281#178281

Great idea Katie! I'm sure jeffnorton or Mustafa Topaloglu have some opinions on how we can improve F5 support.

SNMP is generally pretty simple. Perhaps they are running on a non-standard port or using SNMPv3? If we could get some further details, I'm sure we can figure it out.

Assuming this script is collating information and is hosted on another system, you could create a "Custom HTML" resource in Orion to frame it in. Is this what you were looking to do, or were you looking to parse actual return codes from the script and display as a statistic?

A custom chart resource (found in 10.7) allows you to filter input elements and choose series. It should fit the bill here.

Yes, this is a known issue under certain environmental conditions that should be resolved in a near-term service release.

You can create a "Custom Chart" in the new reporting interface which is more configurable than the current MOC.

Surely. You're probably looking for ${CustomPollerStatus.RawStatus} macro.

Screenshot would be super helpful on this to make sure we're on the same page.

Apologies for missing it- but what field(s) are you trying to pass through in the alert body? Is the desired flow essentially: * Receive trap * Poll table values from 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.43.1.4.3 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.43.1.1.6.1.8 * Return values in email alert?

The SDK may be helpful here- it comes with a sample powershell script to modify custom properties: Orion SDK Information
