>> Where can I view this schedule? Go to Manage Reports and choose the 2nd tab. It should be under there.

ALL of the above along with the tools required to do the work simply cost to much money when all employers are trying to save money.

I'd open a support case as you've not had any response. Sounds like a cache issue of some form, but I wouldn't know where to look / begin.

Not come across this issue with our PA's, but equally we haven't changed passwords. Maybe best to open a support case being as you asked this 27 days ago and nobody appears to have an answer.

Personally I'd say SNMP but we monitor so few servers via our NPM that I probably don't have a shot in this game. What I can do is point you at @"adatole" article SNMP v WMI pros and cons. I might also suggest a mix and match approach having read that article so it really depends on what you want/need to monitor and what…

And are you using the built-in version or the "I've paid through my eye, nose and teeth" to get the all new singing and dancing version that was previously baked in via the standalone app? My understanding is that the built-in version is nowhere near as capable and when I asked the question, and got an oblique response…

We don't use the internal to SolarWInds syslog facility but use standalone Kiwi which is slowly being replaced by an Open Source product that can cope with the amount of date per second we are generating. That said, from within the SDK I can see there is an "Orion.Syslog" table that sits underneath the "Orion.LogEntity"…

Sadly (or not) these were created for/in Report Writer which has now been deprecated. The old standalone report writer app is no longer even in the programs folder, and instead there is just a migration tool. As such, they will need to be re-coded. For your unknown query, start building your report around the following bit…

You may need to raise a ticket for this as for whatever reason, SolarWinds is seeing that as a link. It may be a bug or it could be something in the device configs. I really haven't used Orion Maps much as it is so far from being a product that is ready for us to use.

Ahh yes, you are right. But I was sure I found a way to get the name of the device extracted. I'll have to relook at this unless you know of a way that I can get the report as previously laid out?

Michael, hmmm... I understand the words but..! My current resultant eMail looks like this: So clearly there is a link somewhere to the NodeID (in this example 126346) and if I click the URL it takes me to the actual node. What I'm needing to understand is how to extract that into a report and I can't see how the backend is…

I use a set of variables in Network Atlas that I love.... rx ${Inbps} tx ${Outbps} So on any link that is connected (i.e. you have at least one interface attached) you can use the above two variables. Right click the link and 'add label' and then replace whatever text is there with these variables. You'll get something lie…

Hi and welcome to the forum ... So are you saying you are looking for a syslog of sorts? Solarwinds has that built in, but we have opted not to use the built-in syslogger as we were already heavily using Kiwi Syslogger (now owned by SolarWinds anyway) as a standalone server app. We have now moved away from that as we kept…

OK thanks for the reply Jeff.

@"jblankjblank" and @"dunky2k" I may have missed this in various announcements, but are we any closer to being able to: a. create static Orion Maps laid out as we want? AND b. that we can have assigned or auto assigned (based on group/map name a la Atlas) to a specific page/group? Stuart p.s. FWIW - we are on 2020.2.5 now.

Thanks but I did go searching - used polling, poll and APE and none of them produce hits on our system. Then after your post I realised my idiocy.... I was searching in the wrong place - doh!

We've discovered by luck that 2 of our APE's were not polling but because none of the services had failed the server monitor agent (BMC) didn't notice, so didn't alert. So, are you able to walk me through how this alert should be built, or is there one I can copy and modify for our use?

It turns out that there is a "canned alert" for just this and my old eyes must have been failing me. It's called "download config request by job failed"! For our purposes this is a very crude method, but it is a start that I believe we can build on. And of course, this only answers this one specific query as I can imagine…

Thanks for the reply @m_roberts However, it isn't the job per se we were looking to alert on, but the individual nodes within the job. I discovered that there is a result given for those in the database, but my SWQL skills are not up to doing JOINS (I try but keep messing up and not sure how/why). Anyway, there is an…

I confess I'm a little lost, but does this when put in a custom query widget essentially allow you to search for any value in any of ones custom properties? I ask as if I try this and search for a CP name then I get a result. If I then try and search for the contents of a CP, I get "there was an error processing the…

I have something similar, as last time I searched this thread didn't come up ... and, I just tried this report but it complains that I need to edit the table, but SolarWInds crashes when I do, so I can't see what / where is at fault. So, my report, that I assembled takes a slightly different reasoning as to why we need it…

Also, and I already created a search for this but it's in a report rather than a widget, is part of my role is AIS and I need a semi-automated way to search a specific subset of kit (client, IP range, etc) and produce an output I can send off to the change engineer which shows them the bits they forgot to include. They can…

Without jumping on Alex's question too much, then from my perspective we have just onboarded a new client that used a very old version of SolarWinds - but are now on the latest and greatest. One of the things their team relied on was heavy use of a search across CPs for various info which could be a Site ID, on call…

I thought report writer had been deprecated - so probably best to raise a ticket for support if not.

I'd be interested in the answer to this as well. Currently I just fire up Custom Properties manager and do a search for the CP I'm looking for. So using your example I'd search for Washington and if there are any, it would show me the nodes it is assigned to. Klunky but it does work Being able to search direct from the GUI…

What conditions do you have on the trigger? This is what ours looks like: If you prefer, then the SWQL looks like this: SELECT E0.[Uri], E0.[DisplayName] FROM Orion.Packages.Wireless.AccessPoints AS E0 WHERE ( ( ( E0.[Node].[CustomProperties].[Node_In_BAU] = 'True' ) ) AND ( ( E0.[Status] = '2' ) ) ) And yes, we don't…

Agreed - this works for us and an edited version also works to include Aruba and other AP manufacturers that manage their APs via a WLC.

Thanks Marc - that looks useful. I have done the 101 or its equivalent via Kenson in the UK - which I believe is a part of Loop1 anyway. That was very useful at the time as we knew so little about the product that had been dropped on us from a great height. I'd say I'm fairly comfortable with most front of house aspects,…

Thank you Marc @"mesverrum" ... If I knew how I was screwing up, I wouldn't be here. But, as far as I know, I wasn't trying to do anything too fancy, just wanted to pull in the names of the nodes as well. I don't recall the error now, but can re-try later and see how I get on. But first I'm going to go and do some…
