Thank you both Vinay BY and aLTeReGo. I have been able to do an all or nothing alerting using groups but these two techniques will help me in this more complex problem.

From the top menu bar - Settings - All Settings - Manage Agents. It will be in the Version column.

One way you can restrict views is to use one of the custom properties. For example, we use the Primary_Support custom property to designate which node is "owned" by a particular IT Support Team. We use AD to create groups per IT Team, then assign a custom default homepage per Team and restrict their homepage to a custom…

Can we disable the secondary authentication mechanism? It looks like we are experiencing a timeout for the Top Indexes for Database with the local SQL account which is then trying the backup authentication triggering this error. What is odd in our case is that this is happening when we are monitoring the Orion DB itself…

It is difficult to schedule changes in our environment so we like to wait until there is at least one hotfix released and then ensure that at least three weeks go by between any additional hotfixes to ensure things are as stable as possible before upgrading. A great resource to watch for this is: Orion hotfix release notes…

What are the features that will be included in the free basic version? Like Will above we cannot lose our basic syslog functionality that the current product provides today. Having all additional logs be discarded above a licence threshold does not give us functionality that we currently rely upon with the old versions.
-
Thank you Is the recycle command able to be used instead of a Stop and Start? Stop and Starts force all current connections and sessions offline. This could result in the user experiencing a harsh “unhandled exception”. Recycling is more desirable because it will ensure that all sessions are finished up first before safely…

What was the fix, a rename of the custom property?

Hi Rick, How did the Gigamon analysis turn out?
-
Sounds great, please send one out.
-
Thanks for the clarification, much easier to deploy that way.

Just to followup. We preformed an upgrade this morning and I was surprised to see that Core (HotFix4) was installed as part of the update bundle. I am unable to find release notes on this HotFix in the Success Center or my Customer Portal. We rely on the release notes to inform our Change Control and to understand the…

If there a way to manually install these DLL versions? I really don't want to take another 2.5 hour outage to update our primary and APEs again.
-
Great Idea! I'd support this feature request.
-
The main hold up should be solved with integration with the advanced alerts in Orion core. We need the existing additional options of modifying the syslog message, log the message to file, forward the message, send a new syslog message, and send an e-mail / page actions. We have many existing custom rules that we need to…

Working with support we found out that the current script at Create a self-signed certificate still will only create an SHA1 certificate. We did find a workaround. The issue was we didn't delete the old WinRM listener binding. 1. Delete the SHA1 IP__Solarwinds_Zero_Configuration certificate on the affected monitored node.…

You can try - Linux Disk IOPS Windows IOPS are provided out of the box if monitoring with WMI.

We did not upgrade to the latest version and experienced this issue. The timing of both the .net Microsoft Updates and the latest version of the Orion suite software was just coincidental.
-
Can you share the script with the community? It would be great to wrap this up in a SAM template. I am glad they have found the issue. We would love to see logic embedded into the agent that watches for this type of consumption and self-heals with a restart if necessary. Whatever measures are necessary to make sure the…

No, we are currently on 6.9.1

Thank you very much mharvey Guess this will be my afternoon / evening. We upgraded on Wednesday and I found out about this bug this morning when I received an email from the DBAs that the Orion server SQLLogs mount volume nearly filled up. Fun morning.
-
Thank you for the update! We have blown away that environment, unfortunately. One suggestion I have is to add in a DBCC CHECKTable against the whole database as part of an upgrade process to identify potential issues before a sign off that the upgrade was successful. We will be adding this to our upgrades moving forward.…
-
Still trying to work with support on this issue. The table corruption happened because of our last Orion upgrade. The upgrade changed the Description and ViewXml datatype fields changed from ntext to nvarchar in the APM_ApplicationTemplate table. Despite the integrity error the suite is working just fine. We can add,…
-
We would love to hear about the full details of your migration as well.

Yes, we limit custom properties usually to Nodes, but that is more of a feature on how we grew with the product suite. We started with NPM and designed the alerting based on custom properties to ones linked to nodes. As the suite has matured the ability to add custom properties to other element types has also grown. It all…
-
Yes, there are several places you can see what nodes are assigned to what property. The one we use all the time is the Manage Nodes screen (Settings - Manage Nodes). Change the "Group By" to the Custom Property you are looking for or add in a custom property column in the display to show what you are looking for. Another…
-
There are a bunch of different ways depending on how many nodes you need to install the agent on and how your environment is setup. If you are only dealing with a few, using the Orion Web's Settings - All Settings - Manage Agents, or a manual install on the endpoint itself may be the quickest. The documentation is great…

The issue between df and SNMP is summarized here Linux Drive Monitors not Accounting for Reserved Space A work around we use here is to setup a SAM Linux script monitor UsedDiskSpace_root=`df -Ph |grep "\/\$" |awk 'sub("%","")'' {print $5}'` UsedDiskSpace_opt=`df -Ph |grep "\/opt\$" |awk 'sub("%","")'' {print $5}'`…

Hi ding and serena, I see that IPAM HF 3 is in the portal. Will this address the issues that we have had with the installer and HF 2? Do we need to uninstall HF 1 or 2 first? The release notes link redirects to the Hotfixes webpage but it hasn't been updated yet.
-
What is the database field for using ICMP (Ping) - Fastest vs Status & Response Time Agent? We would like to setup different alerts depending on which is selected for Agent monitored nodes.
