Edit the User in Settings, All Settings, Manage Accounts, and Disable the session timeout for your NOC user.

Since you are on a trial, I don't think you can open a support ticket. A couple of things to try - Restart all the SolarWinds services - "C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\StopNetPerfMon.exe" Another option is to manually assign the template to the nodes instead of using the group. Assign templates to nodes manually…
-
Ensure you have correctly applied the Application Monitor to the Group. Assign a SAM application monitor template to groups of nodes (solarwinds.com). In the example below, the Application Template is applied to 1 Group that contains (9) members. If the group is populated, it should show in the Assigned Application…
-
Once a template has been applied, it is now an application monitor. Since you are on a trial, the out-of-the-box alert "Alert me when an application goes down" may be enabled. If it isn't, it is short work creating a new alert just to trigger for anything named with your Application Monitor name.

Run an snmpwalk from the polling engine you are monitoring the F5 from and see if it is responding to the SNMP R/O string. If not, try loading up Wireshark and see if the F5 is even responding. This will help narrow the issue to the F5 config or SolarWinds. Verify device data for NPM and SAM using SNMPwalk (solarwinds.com)
-
The process is to create a template and then apply that template to all the nodes you would like monitored. Create custom templates in SAM (solarwinds.com)

The database stores data in the vendor's default unit of measurement. Typically, the industry standard is to report temperatures in Celsius. SolarWinds does the conversion automatically to show the different values in the GUI in Fahrenheit based on your User Settings. Change hardware health temperature units…

It looks like the problem is in your scope. My HP ILO's have a Machine Type of Compaq (that's going a ways back!) Start your scope more broadly and then focus it. I like to define a scope by starting with a report to make sure I am getting the right components before creating the alert. That way I can make sure I am…

For a dashboard widget, you can use something like a Custom table. Here is an example to show just Hardware Temps records over 80. For us t looks like we are polling in Degrees C not F, something to consider.
-
Hi Mickdon, Here is a quick alerting scope example.
-
What is the physical hardware you are running for the ESX Host? An example I have used is monitoring the Temperature through the HP ILO or Dell iDRAC hardware sensors. Setup SNMP on these management ports to query those metrics.

There is a report called HCO License Summary Report and Recommendation or this HCO License Summary Report - Reports - The Orion Platform - THWACK (solarwinds.com), that lays out the numbers from the LicenseSaturation Table. For a client with HCO they are showing like HCO Advanced licence limits the node counts limited on…

One way to use a custom property would be to have the different Regions into different groups, then use the Groups to add your WorldMap lat/long. This would coorleate those multiple IPs into the groups and you would see the group status on the WorldMap. I've used this method to setup different cities for thousands of IPs.

Have you made any progress on this proposed process?

On a component monitor alert. These variables should work: ${N=SwisEntity;M=Application.Node.Caption} - ${N=SwisEntity;M=Application.Node.IP_Address} ${N=SwisEntity;M=Application.ApplicationAlert.ApplicationName} - ${N=SwisEntity;M=ComponentAlert.StatisticData} Days until Certificate Expiry!
-
Besides available space, you can alert on any metric that is polled for that volume. For Example, you can trigger alerts on IOPS, Avg. Disk sec/Transfer, Disk Queue Length, reads per sec, writes per sec.

The OOTB alerts and actions may get recreated by running the configuration wizard. It could be an option to try.
-
Click anywhere on the background and turn off Show Connections
-
For 2. What's the easiest way to restore them? (Don't see a way to clone an alert action - unlike an alert itself.) - The easiest way to clone an action would be to click Assign Action, select one of the actions you want to copy, then Copy and rename it.

SAM allows you to create templates that can execute a script. If you know where a piece of information is, there is usually a way to grab it. There is a PowerShell script in the Thwack Shared Templates that could be a good start to getting that information. It appears to extract registry keys that may have the info you are…
-
There are a few ways depending on what you want to monitor. If you want to monitor the service or process itself, you can setup a Windows Service Monitor or Process Monitor. This will capture the status, CPU, Memory, and IO. Easiest way is to use the Component Monitor Wizard in SAM Settings to create a template and apply…

You can try looking at the audit table in Message Center to see who is making the changes. Check Show Audit Events, select Action Type: View edited, and change the time period to the time you want to look at. Viewing and reporting audit events in Orion Platform (solarwinds.com)
-
Can you outline what exactly you are looking for? Availability will always be a 100 or a 0 because at any given poll the interface or node is always either up or down, so you need to make the query an average calculation over time. In SWQL studio you can find availability in Orion.ResponseTime table. Interface data is…

Super awesome summary!
-
For sure. This changes it to have the Down Event start within the last 24 hours SELECT n.Caption AS [Device] -- shows the current status icon , '/Orion/images/StatusIcons/Small-' + n.StatusIcon AS [_IconFor_Device] -- makes a clickable link to the node details , n.DetailsUrl AS [_linkfor_Device] ,…

If they only want outbound communications, using the agent in agent-initiated mode will work. You can not discover the network if they do not allow inbound. The agent needs to be configured on their side. (Or you preconfigure it and download/send a golden image to them) Agent communication modes (solarwinds.com) Have them…

Some time events are shown in the SWQL studio in UTC, as that is how it is recorded in the database. The GUI shows it in your local time zone. If you want the same time in SWQL, use ToLocal(EventTime) as LocalEventTime for example.

As long as the device supports SNMP and you can get your hands on some documentation from the vendor on what OID maps to the values you are looking for then setting up a Universal Device Poller may be your best bet here. Monitor custom statistics based on OIDs with Universal Device Pollers in the NPM (solarwinds.com)
