Network_Guru, where did you get those stats from? I do not have any screen that shows stats like that. 

Great! Thanks!. MarkS

Denny, I am getting some push back from support. It is their belief that there is nothing wrong with the software and that it is something on my end. I am not sure that I am going to get much farther. Do you understand what I am seeing or do I need to just let it go? I may have mistakenly thought that you had an idea what…

Ok, here is my way of getting these back. These steps are harmless in general; I just did them on my backup sql server. On the sql server: Stop the windows management instrumentation service. In the c:\windows(or winnt)\system32\wbem folder, there is a folder called repository. Rename that to something like repository_old.…

Ok. Thanks! MarkS

Mark, I'm monitoring the Exchange 2007 server we have set up in the SolarWinds lab, so I know it's possible. The one thing I had to bust my head against was getting the proper credential. I thought I had an admin account, but I didn't. Ok, I have mine working. In order to get mine to work, I had to do three things. A) on…

Wow. Really? the wmiadap /f should have rebuilt it. Are there any that starts with Win32_PerfformatedData_MSSQL????? What about win32_PerfRawData_MSSQL???? Any listed starting that way? Maybe a rebuild of the wmi repository may be in order. But I would not do that willy nilly. Are the any that come back with SQL in their…

I am going on about 72 hours right now. It is sitting at the "older data from InterfaceTraffic" step. I know it is still chugging, because the free space is slowing going up. Right now I have a database size of 28gb with 18gb free and growing. I knew something was wrong because my website was really slow. I always know…

Denny, I entered this case a couple of days ago. I got one email telling me to use snmp instead. I have not heard anything else. Is there a hotfix to test? Thanks, MarkS

Well, that reply was meant for you, but I have spent so much time trying to get SQL, Exchange, and IIS working that I have had my troubleshooting backwards. I cannot get any meaningful data out of exchange or any of the formatted data enums. I am finding that MS is saying WMI has been removed from Exchange 2007, so I do…

Did not happen to have an "additional web server" or it answers on a non-primary IP? That was my issue. There is a file you have to change from localhost to the actual server ip. That cured the 401 and 403 errors for me. Mark S.

Keep in mind that sql will take as much memory as it needs and hold it. It is not uncommon in a server with little memory like yours, SQL will hog it almost instantly. You can use your Min and Max memory settings in SQL to reserve some memory for the OS. That is what I do on a 16gb SQL Server I am running. Marks

That works. Thanks.

It is looking for: Win32_PerfFormattedData_MSSQLSERVER_SQLServerBufferManager Wbemtest should find it. If it does, then I would have to look at credentails at that point. If it does not, there should be one pretty close to it. It may be the one you are looking for. MarkS

Will Do. I will create one online. Case #64785 MarkS.

Because the migrator kept failing, I made the decision to truncate my applications tables. So those are now gone. Which is fine for me, I would rather start fresh again. I have added a couple of monitors and everything looks good. I do have another question. I noticed that even though I have removed modules, their tables…

Count me in. Not as large as other posters, but have a mix of mpls and framerelay. Up to 10 sites now. Thanks, Marks

you need to use wbemtest to see if you can list the same performance monitor counters. That would be my next step. I think there is a sticky at the top with the wbemtest instructions. If not maybe I can give you some. Sounds like to me, the WMI query in the templete is not matching what you have on the server. Missing…

Yeap, it is set to "Summary" Should I change it back? Mark S.

***Nevermind, I have noticed that mine do not work either. Those counters are not present on my Exchange Server in either RAW or Formatted. *** In the template, change one of the monitors from win32_perfformattedData to win32_perfrawdata. (Change the formatted to raw) and see if it starts giving you data. The numbers will…

I think I may know what is going on. WMI does not work like snmp. You cannot poll a 'cooked' wmi metric (win32_perfformatteddata) and expect to get anything worthwhile. WMI was meant to be polled by a refresher that uses a time based value. Meaning, If I poll formatted, it is expecting two things, the metric to pull, *and*…

Ok, that was it. I ran both of the select commands, and there were ~3500 records in the scheduledjob and ~1500 in the activejob tables. Now I am back down to ~30% CPU with APM installed. Couple of things. When I tried to remove AM to install APM, AM could not be removed ( I had to rebuild from scratch keeping the DB). The…

You do not have a lot of nodes, how big is the DB? MarkS

ok, is it a named instance? Marks

OK, I was able to get some sites created, but only by going to the original web server on the Orion NPM box. (the poller box). I have the additional web server and the errors I was getting was trying to add on that box. If anyone else is having this problem, check that. Bug? Mark S.

quote:Originally posted by stanleyjacobs I cannot get the web site to load correctly at all on my orion box. I am working with support, but cannot get my Admin bar to show netflow options. Any suggestions? Only thing I remember is you have to copy your web site from orion to your new web server box. *This assumes you have…

Not that I can tell. Marks

quote:Originally posted by dclecompte Yes, v1.0 had scalability challenges. At high volumes, sometimes the compression engine would fall behind the data flow and the database would grow too large. Indexes were often a part of the problem. The major focus of v2.0 was to re-architect the database to handle large volumes. We…

Well, I know you did not ask me, but I will give you my example. We purchased the 100 interface level of Netflow, and cannot in any way get close to 100 interfaces to work. We have *major* hardware as our Solarwinds devices and cannot even get anywhere near acceptable performance. I am talking a 16 core enterprise SQL…

I have done all that, it still does not work. Digging deeper, I get information from WIN32_PERFRAW, but not WIN32_PERFFormatted. I found out that I can get good information from Formatted if I use a iRefresher. I can verify that using wbemtest. So my questions are these. Does APM successfully pull information for anyone…
