Hi Radim, Really? That's causes me quite an issue then - I have nearly 100 devices using IP SLA with over 200 operations on them - and I want to change the password regularly for security reasons... Is there some other way other than changing one by one on each and every device?? Do you know if this getting addressed in a…

Hi Yann, yes - the flows are coming through as far as I can tell - the Solarwinds NTA is actually where I'm seeing the msgs about it not being configured correctly. Just trying to figure out what it means by those msgs... Thanks! 

Hi there, actually it was both - however I see that over the weekend this seems to have cleared up and the search seems to be filtering now (guess it just needed to re-poll all the switches?). Now I have a bunch more issues - - I have 2 pollers - after the upgrade all the switches that I had on one of the pollers…

Hmm - it seems inconsistent - I see info showing up for routers/switches that havn't changed at all - and conversely on the same subnet other routers/switches dont show anything at all - I see the same thing with PCs regardless of whether they're on static or dynamic IPs - again for machine that havn't changed... Regarding…

Great - Thanks Denny

Doh! Somehow my brain missed this - I guess I was too busy trying to figure out why it wasn't under Roles. Thanks! 

Hi Denny, ok - I created a new Performance Counter Monitor for the server and it worked fine (used avg disk bytes/read). I also tried using the Windows Service Monitor - that also worked fine - so looks like just a problem with WMI Process Monitor and Windows 2000 boxes. Since I realised that maybe the problem was the WMI…

Thanks Radim, unfortunately that link seems to have been removed - I just get a "This article does not exist or is not published." error. I can see this article in the searches though - just can't seem to get to it - maybe someone removed it for editing or something? Anyways - from what I can gather from the brief text I…

Thanks Brandon, Version I'm using is 12.2(33)SXI4a running on 6509E with SUP32 cards. Thanks, Sean

Thanks - it's useful and gives me some good pointers towards modifying this for other uses. Thanks, Sean

Fantastic! I was just looking at how I could find Muted (but not Unmanaged) devices easily and this is perfect. Don't suppose you have a similar one for Unmanaged devices in the same format so I don't need to resort to using reports? Thanks very much for this, a huge help! Sean

Thanks Peter - very helpful - can finally fix the first column to the correct size to view everything and no more hacking files to make my IP subnet list display more entries! I guess the only thing that would be nicer would be if this could be integrated into the IPAM settings on the webpage rather than on a server based…

Hmm - yes - I tried to force an update by adding a field and removing - but no joy. But you know what - I went home last night and the fields were missing - came in this morning and suddenly they're back...! err.. self fixing now? I like it :)

For the power supplies and total switch load you can get it here - 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.117.1.1.1 Bear in mind these values are in centiAmps at 42V so you have to do a bit of calculation here to get the loads. I think this UNDP poller was already uploaded somewhere on the content exchange - if not let me know and I'll upload…

Hi Brandon, both sound good! For the MS DHCP integration - I'm wondering if it will support dual DHCP servers correctly? We run 2 DHCP servers in each subnet and they share the range so that we have some kind of redundancy - will IPAM cope with that? One thing I was hoping for at some point was a way to take the info IPAM…

Hi Denny, thats great news - it was one of the things that I thought was kind of silly - very glad to hear that this has been cleared up. One question on this - how about the additional website viewer? One thing that is annoying is that everytime I take down the main server for maintenance - even though the polling engine…

Yep - I just saw this a few days ago - doesn't seem to break anything but yeah - hopefully something that will get fixed shortly :)

I've also seen this one - I have a pair of Cisco 7400 routers showing exactly the same symptoms - although many other of my 7400 routers show normal/expected values... I think it's probably related to the Cisco OS version issue since the routers with the incorrect memory utilisation are running the same OS but the other…

I too am looking to do this - but not for a node (which is what I believe the suggestion would do) - but for the entire collection of that statistic in a tabular format.} Eg I have a poller that pulls all the Temps on a Cisco switch - but I can only display the temps on my summary page - I can't display the MAX level which…

I do exactly that - there used to be a program available under Additional Downloads in the customer area called Solarwinds Windows Event Log Forwarder which does exactly what you want to do and sends stuff straight into Orion so you can get everything in one place (great for searching all your server event logs for…

Hi all, I have a similar question - we have dual links between our sites and I want the links to go red when one of the interfaces is unreachable - however it only works if the status goes to DOWN. I need the colour to change when the status goes to UNKNOWN - since this is what Orion is marking the interfaces as often. The…

Agree with all of the above :) Am also trying the Eval right now - A few other things I would like to see 1. ability to colour the entire row based on whether it's static/reserved/dynamic so it's easier to view. 2. ability to select multiple rows and EDIT them at once to set Static/Dynamic/Comments etc Setting each row one…

APM definately has a few issues - I just had the entire set of Apps I was monitoring go into UNKNOWN also - couldn't see any obvious reason why - all services were running. Rebooted the box and it all came back. My monitors are a mix of WMI, SNMP and Service Monitors. My guess is the SNMP memory leak killed it since I saw…

One option that may work for you is to use a Loopback address on the server/device - that way it would still be accessible if one of your interfaces went down. This is often used for Routers - I've never tried using it on a server but it should work - although if your IPs are on different networks then there is the problem…

Similar question - how can I do this for Custom Atttributes? I've added a bunch of custom attributes like type of network (VPN/Internet/Internal etc) as custom fields for the subnets but can't figure out how to use these filters on the Top 10 page - can you drop me a hint? :) Thanks! 

Hi there, sounds great - I'm actually looking for that user delegation - I really dont like giving out the entire IP database to people just so they can update a few static ips for their own office. I think a few other people have also mentioned some kind of check of DNS vs hostname (from both IPAM and SNMP) - I'd love…

Installed mine just now - looks good so far - cleaner interface and icons - no performance differences or issues vs my previous 2.0 install that I have found so far.

Oh - one more thing We'd really love to see port descriptions from CatOS Cisco switches to come through on Orion - I see it only works for IOS devices right now - but majority of our 100+ switches are CatOS and will be so for a very long time to come... Thanks! Sean

Couple of things we'd love to see (so we can get rid of some of the other 3 monitoring systems we use!) 1) Auto Discovery for Map making - doing it by hand is too time consuming - we gave up and use Openview NNM instead 2) MAC Address to IP & DNS Name resolution for switch ports so we can see what device is on the end of…

I have a similar query - I'm wondering if theres a way to display this information on the Node Details pages similarly to the way UNDP does? Theres a lot more info in WMI these days than SNMP - APM is great for graphs, checking if something is running or not etc but I havn't yet found an easy to display the result of a WMI…
