  • I had a similar problem and it was because my interface poll time was different than my node poll time. In your system manager expand the node you are monitoring and right click on the interface and choose interface properties. I don't have my console in front of me at the moment, but there is a slider bar in there that…
  • Could you setup a filter to exclude all your switches from that view? 
  • Thank you very much, that was driving me nuts. Works like a champ now.
  • I'm running V5.5. http://www.plixer.com/support/download_request.php They have a free version that has about 1/2 functionality which is a good place to start to see if you like it.

  • Orion Network Performance Monitor 8.5.1 SP3 I can't drill down into it, there's no link on the x'd out event, so I'm not sure where it's coming from.
  • Here are the OID's I used to monitor the TemPager 4e...maybe the same for yours 1.3.6.1.4.1.20916.1.1.1.1.5 1.3.6.1.4.1.20916.1.1.1.1.6 We only use the two temperature probes, one on the floor of the room and one in the ceiling of the room.
  • Any updates on the problems with monitoring the 8tb drives? We have several installed on SunOS boxes using Net-SNMP and we see the same issue. I opened a support ticket and just got the "Check the 64 bit...." deal. It's already selected. I'd hate to have to add custom pollers for each volume, it's nice to see all the…
  • Thanks, that answers my question.
  • I think this is a pretty cool way to do what you are looking for (rotating the maps) Running on Firefox Load Alt-Tab script from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2668 Load Auto-Refresh from http://reloadevery.mozdev.org From the tools menu you set the alt-tab script to toggle every x number of seconds If you…
  • Check Pages 21 and 22 on this doc. http://www.solarwinds.com/support/apm/docs/APMAdministratorGuide.pdf
  • I think I read something about it being very difficult to pull entire table data using custom mib's. They said in V9 it will be much easier.
  • If you have the custom report, can't you pull that up via the web browser and just diplay that?
  • How did you get all the information into one table like that? When I add the UnDP's they all show up in seperate tables.
  • Nothing super-fancy I did, but somewhere in the forum they showed you how to put the most recent Thwack posts in an iframe with the custom HTML resource. I used that and also put a iframe in for the Scrutinizer program which comes in handy.
  • On your orion server, go into programs, solarwinds, advanced features - then select Orion Report Scheduler When that loads click on add job and follow the onscreen instructions. hope that helps
  • I wonder if it's the custom pollers that aren't working. I'm running the same version as you and mine works, but I don't have any custom pollers. Here is what I"m using for my interfaces: Interface ${IfName} is ${Status}${CR}Link Type is ${InterfaceTypeName} Speed is ${InterfaceSpeed}${CR}Current RX Utilization…
  • We use a product from AVTECH called Tempager. Simple product that works. http://tempager.com/
  • Are you talking about email alerts being triggered on these events??
  • Thanks. I just tried and had the same results when I set it to the past 24 hours. If I spread it out to the past 30 days, it works. 
  • I've just installed Scrutenizer this week and integrated it with Orion pretty easily. They even have a doc on their webpage to show you ways to tie Orion in with Scrutenizer. Seems to work pretty good so far for me at least and a very small investment, plus supports Sflow + Netflow.

  • Great! Thank you, I think I'm pretty close but i keep getting this error: Unable to impersonate user "domain\username". This user must be a valid user on the Orion Server/Polling Engine. (the domain/username is valid - removed actual value)
  • Thanks, I use the report writer for some but it's pretty inconsistent for larger reports. Some days it works and most days it doesn't. I had a ticket opened for that problem and it was never resolved, they said it was due to the size of the report. (which didn't really make sense to me). The reports would time out and…
  • Thank you sir. I think I've attached the screen shot =)
  • Thanks much. I keep getting an error if the scheduler kicks off the job but if i run it manually (via the report scheduler/run now) it works. I've opened a support ticket. Thanks for the info. This is the error I'm getting: The server response was: 500 Internal Server Error.
  • Yep, I do have a device called that, but that title shows up on any new views I setup as a node details view. I don't tell solarwinds to use that device and from what I can tell, I can't change that title. Here is a new view I just setup, it's called down nodes, I don't put any type of filters on it and this is what I get:
  • I never did find a plug-in for IE to do this. One way you can accomplish the same result though is to put this into notepad and save it as whatever.vbs. Then double click the file. Option Explicit Dim objShell Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Do objShell.SendKeys "%+{TAB}" Wscript.Sleep 30000 Loop You can…
  • Maybe something like this would work for you:
  • Thanks for checking. Unfortunatley, we are using xntpd. I have been searching for any type of NTP MIB for Solaris and I can't find anything. Any guru's out there that can think of another way I can monitor my servers to make sure their times are sync'd with the NTP source?
  • Thank you, that is exactly what I was looking for. 
  • Won't I still have to change those values each month?
