Have a look here:

Ok, you are hovering over a VERY dark art, that is neither supported or documented. Each object on a page is a "resource". You can add any amount of different types of resources to a view. It sounds like you'd need to edit the resource that contains the chart you want to modify, rather than the whole page. That's where my…

If you pick an existing alert that you are comfortable with, you can change the type to Custom SQL and view the alert make up as an example. Be aware not to save the alert as a custom sql by clicking CANCEL to close Stuart

Hi Rob, Survey completed. Some additional notes. 1. I'm loving the idea of a "mini-poller" for a small remote office that has less than 10 devices (a couple of routers, a firewall and a switch perhaps?). 2. I think the element count should depend on the "main" license purchased. IE if I have an SL2000, that's for 2000…

License wise - SLX would be required for that many interfaces, HOWEVER you will also hit the 10,000 element per poller limit. You'd be looking at a number of additional pollers to monitor every interface. Even if you pushed as far as the ultimate limit of 110,000 elements with careful tuning, you're still going to be…

Hi Use an advance SQL report, with the where clause as "ObjectSubType = 'icmp'" (This is from memory, so I might need to check ) Let me know if this is enough or you need help writing the whole sql statement. Hope this helps Stuart

<broken record> Really like to see a Pi compatible Orion agent.... </broken record>

There is a "is empty" operator when you set the alert up. So the complete condition would be "[customProperty] is Empty"

Have a look at this thread - Towards the bottom describes how to edit the EventTypes table. I do just this with events that I dont want to see (EventID 19, for interface speed changes for example)# Hope this helps Stuart

Hi, In NPM 10.5 and less, all reports for Report Writer are stored in the filesystem at \Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\Reports. After 10.6 the web reports are stored in the database in addition to the report Writer files as mentioned before. Hope this helps Stuart

I'm confused. What exactly is it you are trying to do?

Hi, I had this on a couple of implementations, specifically with 6500's. It was confirmed as a bug & fixed in 10.5. Stuart

Hi, Your alert is configured correctly, and support are correct in that there is (currently) no way of alerting for "errors now", just "errors this hour". I have this configured with errors this hour > 50, which works quite well in a number of environments. Hope this helps Stuart

I've tried this with the "custom object resource" and get the 95% using percent utilization. What value are you looking to display?

Hi The alerts will remain active as long as the trigger condition remains in the database. Do you have any specific examples of the issues you are seeing? Stuart

Where in the UK are you, and what work do you require as an upgrade alone is unlikely to take two days... Stuart

I'd also like to be considered. Stuart 

* ‌tthe alert is marked as acknowledged, removed from unacknowledged alerts list & if someone else looks, they can see someone has at least seen the alert. If you're the only operator, not much use. * if you have alert escalations configured, these can be set to suppressed if an alert is acknowledged * after 10 days if the…

Based on the details of the fixes in the release notes, I would suggest this should be applied to main and all additional pollers.

Bumping an old thread. Where is this variable now stored in NPM11.5.3 as the alertstatus table is empty.

On the manage nodes page ( http://servername/Orion/Nodes/Default.aspx ) set your grouping to [No Grouping] then at the end of the header bar you'll see some little chevrons ( >> ) click and add the "Managed By" column That's the quick way...

Do you mean nodes that are not monitored by SNMP but by something else like ICMP or WMI, or nodes that have SNMP failures?

Hi, I have uploaded two UnDP to the Content Exchange area that you may find useful Disk Status - Chassis Status - I use all of these pollers in my environment. Hope this is what you are looking for. Stuart

There is a simpler way to achieve what you are looking for, however will require a little up front work. Create a true/false custom property for interfaces called "uplink" and set this to true for all your uplink ports. Your alert criteria then becomes: Uplink = true Interface <> Up I have used "<> up" rather than "= down"…

Might be a different report, but I use this adatole creation. https://thwack.solarwinds.com/docs/DOC-168997#start=25

I'm the same. Anything under 250 is ok on sql express, anything over go with the full version. Most of the time the limitation will be the 1gb memory limit rather than the 10gb database size.

I use 3 custom properties: DeviceDecom (yes/no) DeviceDecomDate (Date/time) DeviceDecomComments(Text) and have setup filters against the DeviceDecom property to hide from views if true, except for the decommissioned devices page. A decommissioned device has the above properties set and is set to unmanaged for a year. After…

What type of property are you monitoring on your trigger condition page? Some varibles are only valid for some property types. I think you are using the Auditing Events property, for which ${NodeName} or ${Caption} is not available. If your trying to alert on Node down, use the Node property and ${Caption} will work for…

What type of report are you using? Can you show the sql tab and post that here?

From memory it's node.caption...
