If you are suggesting this as a feature then the best place to do that would be over in SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted (formerly known as Hybrid Cloud Observability) Feature Requests But, if you keep your environment up to date on a regular basis then the MIB DB shouldn't get out of date, or at least not by much.

I also know that a bug fix 2025.2.1 is supposed to be dropping later this week. It could be you've hit one such bug, but as there is no release data around what bugs are being fixed at present, then I can't help and that's where support definitely comes in.

I know 2025.1.1 had a few issues with cache around displaying maps and the solution there was to clear your cache. It's certainly a first and easy step to take. It's unlikely the maps themselves have been deleted, just an issue with the dashboard and displaying them - but it also wouldn't hurt to confirm the maps are still…

Others would potentially find that useful. Would be great if you would share via the Content Exchange section

I presume you are using NPM as that's the forum you posted in. I also presume you have added a node and can see its details when on node details? If so, on node details tab, click 'List Resources' under the Management widget and ensure CPU & Memory is ticked.

Tom, I can't help directly on this as we don't monitor servers, but generically this is what I do when challenged to create a report on something new. * Open up SWQL Studio [if you haven't got this then do get it installed] * Search for relevant data * When found, right click the parent item in the tree and 'Generate…

We don't have access to servers to directly aid on this, but if you already have a report then why do you need to confuse matters by automating it with a query? Surely you just need to schedule the report on the frequency you want?

Do you only have access to NCM? I would have thought querying the events log in NPM would be a better approach to find when something was disconnected? Personally I can't see how analysing backup data [which is typically just plain text] will show you when something happened.

That's good but not in NCM though. Given that the OP posted in NCM then one has to presume he's wanting to use that?

Not really an answer, but it sounds to me like it's time the company stepped up and paid for staff to have work mobiles. Maybe I'm old fashioned, and maybe it's a UK centric approach, but I would never let a company utilise my personal mobile for anything to do with their business.

Presumably you have added the server to monitoring (via Agent or SNMP)? And presumably you have you 'List Resources' against the server and enabled the CPU & Memory monitor? Once you've done this, the next step would be creating the alert - for that see…

I'm not sure you can do within NCM. Perhaps better to ask in the NPM forum and provide more detail about what you want to achieve? 

I just pasted the phrase into my search engine of choice and found this: https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/MIBs-database-installer-fails-to-complete-successfully?language=en_US 

Appreciate the heads up.

Because the version (2022.4) is so out t of date I can only advise you open a ticket with Solarwinds as soon as possible.

If it continues then I suggest you open your own thread on this, as this one is over 7mths old. And if you do then provide as much information as you can, what you've tried, what version, what module, etc?

I don't follow. Can you share a screenshot of what you mean? And also explain exactly where you see this 'widget'?

I'm not 100% sure what you are looking to do, but it sounds similar to what we do but in a different way. If the user only has the IP, then they can use 'Manage Nodes' to find the name of the node. At that point they can then click on the node which takes them to the node details for that node. So, what we have done is…

The ops question was over 7 months ago and several versions have been released since. It could be that they were on a different version, but here are the steps I'd take: * check SNMP works via the TEST button in 'edit properties' * if the node(s) are managed by an APE check the clocks on the APE and Master poller are…

Yes, but partially. You could run an NCM 'Jobs' with the show chassis command. Unfortunately the response is plain text - but you could manipulate that into a spreadsheet format. We do something similar for whether an interface is enabled for Dot1x or not, but the process to convert is beyond me

> "link" icon Or, as I believe Solarwinds calls them, Implicit Joins. Took me, an absolute non-coder, weeks to get my head around that when I'd only just sussed out JOINs

Are you using enhanced node status calculation, by any chance? As that definitely would contribute towards the discards showing an issue?

Not sure if this is what you want.. but navigate to Settings > All Settings and then scroll down to 'Details' and select Database Details. Once that loads selects 'Database Maintenance Statistics'. It should be at the bottom of the first page. That will give you a view of the past 5 days of maintenance, for comparison…

This is going to be one of those "build it and they will use" [to abuse a well known idiom] moments. If there isn't one in the Content Exchange n.b. there isn't, I looked. Then you could try this one: Huawei_CE6881 as a starter. If that doesn't work then you have two further options: * Submit an FR (feature request) for…

Thanks Chad - appreciate the update as vague as it is 

Kevin (KMSigma) doesn't work for Solarwinds anymore so he is very unlikely to know what's happening. I have asked in other channels and still waiting on an answer.

The code may fail because it references aspects only in our environment. I provided it as an example of what might be achievable. For a Modern Dashboard it is a similar approach. You would add a blank widget to your dashboard of choice and then click on 'Finish Configuring' This will give you a list of pre-defined widgets…

You could absolutely do this as a modern dashboard. What I don't know is if you can set a Modern Dash as a homepage. I know it was (is still?) a feature request but unsure if it has been implemented. You could also do this as a Custom Query widget. You'd need to code the SWQL to suit what you want, but we do a similar…

Odd as it may seem, given that this is primarily a Solarwinds forum, he's trying to do this using Solarwinds. 

It refers to the NodeID of the specific node page you are on. When you navigate to another node, it uses that device's ID and so on.
