Thanks Tony. As you may guess it is early days and greatly depends on the reaction, etc. It helps that you are in the UK as if we did set something up makes scheduling easier I didn't state explicitly but for me the prime reason for a study type group would be down to my style of learning. I rarely learn well from reading…

I'd raise a support case as SolarWinds has 100's of logs and is a bit of a nightmare at times to navigate :)

I should add that if you aren't the admin of SolarWinds then you will need to have been given appropriate permissions to do the above.

At the bottom of the GUI window you'll have a line that looks like this: Contents will vary depending on your licenses, but it will need to include NPM. Anyway, first step is to ensure you've enabled hardware health monitoring. So find the node and go to its main properties page - or find it by using >Settings >manage…

Right - so are you using SolarWinds NPM (aka network performance monitor)?

By "Solarwinds web" I presume you men the GUI frontend to SolarWinds? Under that assumption then yes, you can do just that. If you use NPM and have one of the supported switches being monitored via SNMP (e.g. Cisco, HP, and others) then you just need to enable hardware health monitors and then build your alert around that.…

Hi, I just answered a similar question in this thread. Check that out and any questions come back and ask :)

Might be helpful with some screenshots showing your current settings, but let me try and assist as we have a few 2960's still around. First off, you need to edit the node properties and confirm your desired connection profile is in place: And then click that test button. Once you get a green you are good to go. If you…

Yes, lots of failure messages In addition to your one above, I've seen: - Connection refused by - Error downloading config to TFTP Host - Protocol is not supported for binary config - Error downloading config to SCP Host - Transfer failure due to timeout - Config "2jhfzr3dgx2.config" not found on SCP/TFTP

Thank you @"Seashore" but that didn't quite work for me. First, and it took me a while as I don't code, the Select statement had one too many commas. Once it was removed it ran and that was great. So, I have to presume that 'NCM.Status=1' means it failed. But LastAttemptedDownloadTime doesn't seem to be right in terms of…

Right ... so expanding on that slightly, I can do this: SELECT A.ID, A.UserName, A.ModuleName, A.Type, A.Action, A.Details, A.[DateTime] FROM Cirrus.Audit A Where DateTime > ADDDAY(-1,DateTrunc('day',Getdate())) AND Type = 'Failed' AND UserName LIKE '%Weekly%' To give me just the Weekly backup jobs that failed in the last…

Thanks Jake ... I can see where the above is heading and would be useful if we had a NOC view. Job shifts and the pandemic essentially got rid of any NOC that we did have. What I had originally started working with was from the 'Cirris.Audit' table in SWQL Studio and trying to find a way to show any node that hadn't backed…

Thank you @"jm_sysadmin" and @"christopher.t.jones123" for your advice, help and suggestions. I truly appreciate you've taken time out of your day to help this old IT plodder. The Good News: I have it all up and working. The Even Better News: I didn't have to touch a single bit of scripting I discovered the solution whilst…

Good spot/shout. I'd done that to prove that actual select process was working as expected. Of which, NULL does work, but I will also add in the option to look for empty values.

The latest iteration of this I have, which now runs without any results or doing anything is: $SwisServer = '163.164.101.60' $CustomPropertyName = 'Interface_Priority' $queryInterfacesWithNoPriority = " SELECT ICP.$CustomPropertyName, ICP.InterfaceID, ICP.Uri FROM Orion.NPM.InterfacesCustomProperties ICP Where…

So I admit @"jm_sysadmin" that I am NOT a programmer or scripter in any shape or form. 36yrs ago when I stared in IT the most I needed for my job was to hack at BATch files - which I can still do. But here I am 36yrs later having to learn SQL/SWQL and Powershell to use this product. Anyway, here's my edit on your start. It…

Thank you .. I'll take a hard look at this tomorrow and see what I can do with it.

Thanks for the reply, and I should have clarified this doesn't happen for all nodes, nor does it happen for all people...just mostly me In terms of your checklist, then those are all OK and I am a part of the network team so have already done most of the obvious checks. I'll raise a support case next week i it is still…

Sorry - but I have no idea what you are asking now.

Does this post answer your question? The OID in question for sysUpTime is: 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3 but you would need to test/check it works for all your devices.

Thank you Kevin - that was just what I needed.

Jeff (@"jblankjblank") is aware of our concerns, but the most basic of them is the need to have fixed and different maps in different folders (groups). Until it can do that, we can't even begin to contemplate a move. When that is solved, we then need to overcome the hurdle of creating the maps when essentially 90% of them…

[quote userid="30460" url="~/resources/user-experience/f/forum/90851/how-to-disable-auto-arrange-in-network-atlas/289519#289519"]other than that I can’t recall that I ever seen this behavior when creating Maps in Network Atlas…[/quote]Agreed on nodes, etc, but when you add boxes, lines or other shapes these do and will…

Ah ha 2 - that's the one. Thank you. Only, the actual labels aren't showing any changes, just 1 & 2... hmm, a bug maybe?

Thanks Jeff, and ah ha - partially How do I add multiple values? So my current output shows as 1 and 2 but I can only seem to map one entry, so is it: Raw Value Text Value 1,2 Primary, Secondary or is there some other trick to getting both entries?

Well I found it by taking the "add them all and see which one allows me to do what I want" approach but when it's a part of the GUI I don't often use it would be nice to know for future reference how I got to my result for another UnDP, etc On a slightly related note, is there a way to label multiple output charts with…

Ah yes, apologies... I'd forgotten about the schedules that can be assigned to alerts as we never use them.

If you are learning Python then good on you and you are ahead of me. What I was referring to is the 'job' option in the menu system of NPM - it dawns on me that if you don't have NCM, then you won't have this. If you have NCM, then look at: My Dashboards > NCM > Jobs and if you have this, then take a look at creating a job…

So we run several reports like this. Build a new custom chart report and have the logic along these lines. In the first popup change the 'I want to report on' to interface, then add your condition similar to the following: - not quite sure why this report has an AND and an OR with only one condition but it does work :) The…

Could you not use the 'job' functionality built in to SolarWinds? So long as they can edit the job within SolarWinds then, from what I understand of your ask, they can edit that job to run at a set time and change the device (node) and interfaces as necessary. You then just create the base script for them to edit. A Cisco…
