Is this occurring on all views? Summary / Nodes / Interfaces etc.? Did you run into any problems during the upgrade? Do you access the Orion website via the primary engine or are you using an additional web server to access? Could review the orionweb log file (C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\Logs\Orion\OrionWeb.log) for errors…

When building this query I was thinking that but to be honest I don't know and didn't test it. I built this really to sift through any custom coded components for validation of proper code purposes etc.. I'm willing to bet other component types and their respective settings are stored in a similar manner. Now my curiousity…

You would surely need to edit this query for your own purposes but I created it to look into specifically powershell script component monitors (and the actual script itself and any overridden scripts set). Perhaps it may get you close to what you need with some edits, not sure if app insight utilizes different tables in…

Take a look at the [String]::IsNullOrWhiteSpace() method for powershell. Takes care of both null, empty and if it just contains white space. There's also functionality to set the default of a custom property. The only way to set the default of the custom property (globally) or alter it is by the API or direct database. I…

Yes yes and yes please! lol

Also here's how to run a straight SQL query via the SolarWinds API in PowerShell using SwisPowerShell. Invoke-SwisVerb -SwisConnection $swis -EntityName 'Orion.Reporting' -Verb 'ExecuteSQL' -Arguments $query

Unfortunately there's no good solution. You can edit multiple nodes or entities in the UI at once, however it's trivial at best to do so that way for numerous entities. I have a script that handles creating and updating these thresholds through the API sort of. It's odd but it works and I owe it to @"mesverrum" for…

Try getting at the data through the API via SWQL... SolarWinds makes every effort to keep SWQL consistent across upgrades but SQL is not guarenteed to be consistent (especially with such a major upgrade.) https://github.com/solarwinds/OrionSDK That said if you're motivated enough I'm sure it's in the DB... just a matter of…

Every IdP is different but every one I’ve integrated with, I just tell the teams managing them to send the OrionGroups claim with the users memberOf AD attribute. That way every SAML response has the users AD memberOf attribute (the groups they’re a member of). Specifically I only ask that the CN of the groups be sent, not…

In line with what @"christopher.t.jones123" has mentioned, I typically utilize the global variables there and also re-use email actions as much as possible (e.g. make them very much a template..) It's good to note that alert actions can override the default/global SMTP server configuration and utilize their own if set.…

I’ve implemented something similar where it was common for devices to get decommissioned and the monitoring team was always the last to know. Nodes reporting down for greater than 7 days (that’s the alert condition) would start a ‘decommission’ process alert. The alert itself would only need to run once or maybe twice a…

@"karem" - did you open a SolarWinds Support case for this either by calling into Support or creating one through your customer support portal? That’s your best course of action to get the right help you need, I have provided a couple links that will help you with that. Though to reiterate.. this forum IS NOT SolarWinds…

If I'm not mistaken, I thought the [_IconFor_OtherColumnName] syntax was specific to the custom query resource in web views. Although custom query resources can also be added to reports. If you're building a report with a custom query, it may make sense to do that. However once you have the query data in there (if building…

Credential for monitoring appears to be set to 'None' on the HTTPS component. Is that on purpose or should it be authenticated (e.g. inherit from template, node or otherwise?)

Also using the FQDN is a good way to ensure that polling continues to work in the event of an IP address change.

Adding on here mainly to point out that the SolarWinds API has a number of methods to access it. Depends on your use case, how you need to access the data and what you intend to do with it. Many people utilize PowerShell scripts to interact with the SolarWinds Orion API using SwisPowerShell, however you can also use…

I would attempt updating the agent. That implies you’re not running the agent version that should be running with the orion engine version and may be part of your issue if so. It’s not recommended to run older agents with newer orion versions and typically a new version of the agent is provided with every release. Also…

Following up here that this ended up not being a viable solution. The long and short of it is it's not truly supported yet to run in a least-privileged mode. As a note, it appear to be in the roadmap though now, see below however I did also submit a feature request. Vote on it if interested.…

That could be done with a powershell script using SWIS and a Set-SwisObject command. I do something similar sort-of but only if an interface is critical. I’ll try to provide an example later today should I find the time.

Documentation on that feature here documentation.solarwinds.com/.../SAM-Templates-LinuxUnix-scripting.htm

I would also add for reference the various time intervals and configurations in place to be aware of. It is a delicate balance to get them right. What you need to be focused on is how often item 2 below is checking for new data, how often item 3 will check the database for the trigger condition and how long item 4 is set…

Try checking the setting here in the Orion Web UI: [hostname]/Orion/Admin/advancedconfiguration/global.aspx Search for 'EnableCookieSecureFlag' like so:

Though worth noting that this documentation from SolarWinds does seem to contradict what I mention above.... so worth testing or taking with a grain of salt. https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/Success_Center/orionplatform/content/core-secure-configuration.htm

I wouldn’t think that alone would cause high packet loss alone. Not unless you have lots of disk i/o thrashing or high memory load too. Do you have anything to quantify that data though? Are you seeing icmp drop? Have you run through basic network validation of layer1 / layer2 / layer3? Could try a netpath probe. Maybe do…

I haven’t tested this but from doing some quick web searches I see that a number of articles note you have to do two things... set httpCookiesOnly to true and enable the secure flag by using a URL Rewrite rule for this to work.…

@"superfly" / @"jblankjblank" - Is there a happy medium? @"superfly" - is the map auto-generated or a custom saved map? I'm assuming saved? While I would like an automated map as well, in my head I'd think this may rely on a basic status of the interface first and IF it can pull a valid status from the device on it. Bonus…

So the primary issue is I created that swql query above for a routing neighbor entity not an interface as is in your screenshot. Secondary to that the custom SWQL alerts include and auto-add the whole SELECT ... FROM ... so you do not include the select or the from statements.

How prolonged and consistent is that? If a system is overwhelmed yes. High cpu/mem can cause a server to start dropping traffic.

Is you database name ‘SolarWindsOrion’ ? (without quotes) That may need to change, however I’m not proficient in the report writer tool (truly never use it). But I thought it used just direct SQL queries?... Perhaps some adjustments may need to be made beyond that, I’m just not sure. Other folks may know better

Yeah good question. Are you sure the issue shows up for the Orion (NetPerfMon) website? Have you disabled or deleted the default site in IIS?
