Does this help? https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Send-Orion-alert-emails-using-Office-365-and-Outlook?language=en_US

Ah I see. Yeah they don't show as they are not applied to the node but rather are applied the object like drive, physical memory etc or to the application. You can see in the alert which objects it will apply to by clicking the 'show list' but that's all I can see. I don't know how to make these show on the node details…

Great to hear you've got it sorted! Nicely done

If you click on "show list" do you see the 3 objects ok? If so, are the other 2 muted maybe?

You are correct that it is only the probe that needs to be able to communicate the remote network. It then sends this data back to Solarwinds. https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/npm/content/npm-create-a-probe.htm Is there a firewall between Solarwinds and the probe? And are you 100% sure the probe can…

As part of your download config job, you just tick the following boxes which will send an email to show you all the configs that are not the same. I do the same thing. I first download the startup configs. Then I run a second job that downloads the running configs and compares it to the most recent config that was download…

I don't know of a report but you can add the widget "All Alerts this Object can trigger" to your node details page. It will list out all the alerts that can trigger for the node you have selected.

I use this in my alerts to show days hours minutes <b>Downtime:</b> ${SQL:Select '${N=Alerting;M=Downtime}'/1440} Days ${SQL: Select '${N=Alerting;M=Downtime}'%1440/60} Hours ${SQL: Select '${N=Alerting;M=Downtime}'%1440%60;} Minutes' Hope that helps.

Yes there will be a small outage as the services need to be restarted. Here's the info documentation.solarwinds.com/.../core-downloading-the-solarwinds-mib-database-sw3581.htm

I wouldn't bother monitoring unrouted VLAN's. In fact, I wouldn't even monitor VLAN's. I would monitor only uplink interfaces and interfaces to important devices like servers.

If you go to Manage Nodes, select the Node and click on Edit Properties, is this box ticked and details filled out and tested?

Yeah I've done the same thing. I just show serial number in a separate widget.

In Virtualization Polling Settings, is the polling status green?

What does it show when you look at this VM in VCentre?

Does it pass the credential test? Was it working ok before you deleted it and then re-added it?

I had to create a custom sql query when I wanted this information for WMI credentials. I couldn't find an out-of-the-box report.

vmotion wouldn't cause any alerts unless the server goes offline for an extended period. Monitoring a VNIC will show you how much traffic the server sends

It would be easier to just monitor one or the other. As when a server NIC goes down, the network port would go down as well.

Yes you would get an alert for the network switch port and the NIC on the server if both are being monitored. But in the case of a VM, there is no physical network switch port for it. The hosts are the only ones that have the physical connection.

Thanks for teaching me something new. I've only ever looked at adding in missing serial numbers and was unable to. But I see now you can modify the fields you've highlighted.

I did a SNMPWALK on one of my Ruggedcom devices and found the following 2 OID's you could use Current ROS-CF52 Boot Software .1.3.6.1.4.1.15004.4.2.3.2.0 Current ROS-CF52 Main Software .1.3.6.1.4.1.15004.4.2.3.3.0 So set up a custom poller to poll these 2 OID's and use that info.

We monitor servers with NPM. In the case of teaming, you will see 3 interfaces. NIC 1 & 2 plus the teaming interfaces. It would be handy to know if one of the NIC's has gone down as now you've lost redundancy. You could alternatively monitor the interfaces on the switch to see if they are up/down. We monitor both ends but…

I don't know these device but do they have a syslog function? If yes, is there an error logged when the tunnel goes down? If so, then you could use that. Otherwise run a snmpwalk over the device and see if there's an OID that show the tunnel status. 

Have a look at this support.solarwinds.com/.../Thin-Access-points-status

I used the following to display the outage time in Days, Hours and Minutes <b>Downtime:</b> '${N=Alerting;M=Downtime}'/1440} Days '${N=Alerting;M=Downtime}'%1440/60} Hours '${N=Alerting;M=Downtime}'%1440%60;} Minutes

I would uninstall the modules first. and then install NCM. Here's the instructions for uninstalling IPAM https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/ipam/content/ipam-install-uninstall.htm Here's the instructions for uninstalling UDT documentation.solarwinds.com/.../udt-uninstall-udt.htm

The custome poller will need to be shown in a separate widget. It won't appear in the Node Details widget.

You could also look at reporting on syslog messages if they contain route changes.

All of them should be fine, most are pretty old. Here's one of my ISR4451 Which SNMP are you using and which version of Solarwinds?
