For the record, I can do an 'Order By' but that isn't what I want

Well... I swear when I first used this tool that I could only ever set the schedules from the poller that the device was managed from. In frustration, I tried creating and testing a schedule from the main NPM box and it worked. So, ignore above unless you do have a specific answer for the standalone boxes.

I don't specifically know the answer you need and I'm not the best at understanding the logic behind building alerts, but I suspect your"Evaluation Frequency if Alerts set to 4hrs" is the issue. As it stands, what I understand your alert is saying is: "check every 4hrs" and if it alert trigger condition (whatever you've…

An alternative to the other answer that we use is: Go to: manage nodes > Filter and select as necessary > Hover over 'maintenance mode' ad select your desired action.

Anyone advise, before I raise a case?

Did you find it hard? And well done.

Well done. Was it tough?

@"yumdarling" I much prefer polos these days to T's - so any chance of getting more of them added, and also maybe offered in different colours?

As I hate seeing threads started and no replies or conclusion then I'm back. More for any other poor soul ** that may come to THWACK in future years. Anwyay, as of right now (July 2020), the current encryption levels supported by Solarwinds are listed here. I did ask when we might see newer versions included, but joy of…

Absolutely agreed on this. When we moved to Solarwinds I couldn't believe there wasn't a simple GUI based way to achieve this.

Apologies, it appears I may have mis-understood your request. But I am following along with interest as I'd love to see what you develop if you are successful.

On 2020.2 the old log viewer still opens but as you say, shows no data. Solarwinds deprecated this with the latest version so it can only be done from log viewer - which by their own admission, is far from complete and far from providing the functionality of the trap viewer. My cynical take on this is they've removed a…

BUMP. I know this is an old post but it never received an answer and I am now hitting the same issue. So is there a simpler solution than delete and re-adding the node? Which, in my instance, didn't work. If no joy, I'll log yet another call.

Slightly different query on this as I have also been pursuing this issue via the HPE forums. They are suggesting a cipher/encryption mismatch, so how can I find out a list of what Solarwinds NCM supports?

Looking forward to the NPM one as we don't use the other products here All the best.

@"jblankjblank" Yes indeed - some of the other aspects would be nice to have, but any one or combo of them is not compelling enough for us to just dive straight in without testing. For that I will need to get our TA involved to spin up a test environment. One question, for the Enhanced Volume Status, does this apply to…

After discussions on the vSWUG I'm going to tag in @"KMSigma.SWI" and @"adatole" Not sure if the above is clear enough for our use situation, but essentially we need a way to store plain text in a clear manner on a per node basis - so this ideally needs to obey carriage returns. It does not need to be searchable or…

Thanks again @"jblankjblank" I have hopeully answered the queries on the other thread so won't restate them here. But as you suggest, and as I replied there, I suspect we will need to trial this vrsion before deciding to deploy.

Replying to myself ... For some odd reason, that one, and only that one required the use of "bash" before executing the command. So tested by adding bash to the job, run on just that device and voila. Then added all the other devices back in and using bash, and it also works. Typing bash<CR> on the CLI and then the show…

This is so cool - thank you. Whilst I am far from being able to create something like this, I am at last, beginning to understand the guts of PowerShell scripts and see what they are trying to do. One question: 1. Is it possible (I'm going to presume yes) to have the xml files exported to a specific or specified location?…

Going to tag in @"jblankjblank" as he will want / need to know about this if he hasn't seen it already. See Jeff - not just us

I would put my organanisation at the paranoid level. We have user, server and service levels plus the user can report anything that just happens to sneak through.

I have to concur with the comments above - this is leaps and bounds beyond what was there previously. Well done team. Two Questions: * I don't recall seeing it mentioned, but do all these changes also mean we can assign a specific map to a specific group, which apart from all the layout functions is probably my number one…

It seems I may be the rare person that has never seen that film but knows exactly what the meme is about because so many sahre / talk / etc about it

Thank you @"jvb" 

@"jvb" thank you. I also found that document but am not clear what 'Live Mode' is meant to imply? Can you advise on that please?

Can you walk a very novice (as in I'm just getting started with Powershell) user, through this please? I can see a benefit of using this to script stuff, but not sure what I'd edit or add where to actually use it. So, for example: "[string] $Device," I'm not getting where does the IP / FQDN go in this? I've tried on my own…

So, partially answering my own question.... I found this reference to Orion Log Viewer. It appears OLV is newer and better (their words) and in our 2019.4 environment should be a replacement for Trap Viewer but it still leaves questions unasnwered. Reading and clicking around takes you to a feature comparison table which,…

I'm a bit behind the curve, nothing unsusual there but ... In this post (near the top) @"serena" says if you have LA installed then you will see 'configure riules'. We recently upgraded to 2019.4 but have not trialled LA as of now, yet we do have the 'configure rules' bit. Does this mean we have OLV installed and all the…

Talking to myself @"stuartd" as I find I'm usually the only one that listens to me Anyway, have done some reading and found out some of my answer, I think, but don't really understand it. If I add: Get-SwisData -SwisConnection $SwisConnection -Query $SwqlQuery to the end ... then I get my output on screen. So, success.…
