Hmm – interesting – I do not see these options anywhere when I’m logged in.. ~Steve

Repeat after me "No tool is perfect". I say this often. When I hear Solarwinds won't do this or that! Until your monitoring solution has been defined, baselined and exceptions created, they all will suck. This is a point that I often need to repeat. That being said, you can get pretty close to a single pane of glass as…

Sure don’t… In IE or Firefox…. ~Steve

uh oh - I think we all should get 500points

I have used Spreadsheets - and only found them as reliable as the personnel that are responsible for them are. We used DHCP reservations. This worked well in the past, where all addressing was managed by DHCP. We used VLAN's for segmentation and IP helpers were we needed to. Once an enterprise node (not an end-user device)…

Wish I could vote more than once for this..

Does this only apply to questions I have submitted?

Bronx - The ActiveX instance throws up exceptions: This section of code: ( _ OleCmd.OLECMDID.OLECMDID_OPTICAL_ZOOM, _ OleCmd.OLECMDEXECOPT.OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER, _ DirectCast(Factor, Object), _ IntPtr.Zero _ ) Throws these exceptions: Error 1 Syntax error.

ummm - stupid question - How do you mark an answer correct or helpful ???

Day 3 Questions. It stated my answer was incorrect. That the correct answer was 300 man hours adn USD $10,000 a year. This is incorrect. The white paper cited that the cost savings is 300 man hours and $10,500/yr. 1. According to an ROI study published by Enterprise Management Associates IPAM can provide a return on…

Need to build in the functionality to add/embed charts and graphs into the reports.. Management likes charts and graphs..

Did you ever get this working??

Thank you - Used this on a 2500, changed the SysOID and worked like a charm.. Thanks again...

contact your account rep....

I have been running pagegate for over a year to do this. We have a pots line to a modem that hangs off our SWS server. I have configured critical alerts to be delivered to email and SMS to our on call pager. Works great. Only issue we have is getting the on call engineer to actually pay attention to the alerts.

It's like connect the dots. What will the picture display if I do connect the dots?

Does the priority when opening a ticket actually mean anything to support? If I open a ticket with a "High" priority was does that mean? I am curious to how each priority level is defined. Low - within 24hours med - within 12hours High - wihtin ??? Urgent - ???

Great idea - add an attribute to interface details to "send status to orion live after down xx minutes" I like it! - Also add a feed to the Orion menu bar

Do I get 500 pts? 

Boy we are some creative folks, aren't we... I had a much more complicated NOC Dashboard in the past, but we recently moved DC's and stood up a new infrastructure, so I took the opportunity to create new dashboards. Everything in my dashboards are hot and allow the user to drill down to identify any problems. So far I have…

Jeffery - Or if you open it up after hours - it travels around the world. I got my initial response at 4:30am EST. I contacted my account manager and got a callback within the hour. My request was open with a priority of "High" However, we got a developer on the phone and he had it resolved in 30-40mins. Required manual…

Actually my error is: ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN ErrorDescription failed because one or more objects access this column.

Jeff - I just did the upgrade this evening got the same issue and same response from my ticket.. ?

Use AD authentication add the AD group Authenticated Users. Create your public view and use the account limitation builder to publish this to all users. I have noticed that the pass-through authentication can be buggy and you may have to deal with calls regarding users being authenticated when they land on the page. Just…

Have you checked HOW your are polling through the virtualization settings? You want to make sure if you are polling through vCenter you have that option selected. If you are polling the ESX servers directly you want to select that option:

NCM provides a filter which includes some canned strings the filter out time changes when the confiig change report runs. However the NXOS time string is different then what is provided with NCM. If you open the config change report job you will see an option for filters. Add the nexus time syntax to filter it out when the…

still waiting.. I need a new backpack.....

Gimme my points. .....

Come on guys. Your user community has been asking for this for almost 5 years. If you had put even minimum development resources on this I expect it could at least be in a recent RC! Cisco is the market leader and NBAR is a cisco tech, we know. I would love to run NBAR But I cannot because NTA doesn't know what to do with.…
