m_roberts Perhaps the framework is there, but I've now installed it and I again I see multiple roadblocks because of the Cisco-centricities. For instance the firmware repository itself seems only to accept .bin files! The documentation says "by default" but I can find no option to modify it. On top of that, the repository…

Hi there, does anyone have any information on AppInsight for Exchange supporting Exchange 2016? I haven't seen it in any release notes so I'm guessing the answer is that it's not supported in 6.3.

Hey ikomrad I definitely had to install the PowerShell 2.0 Engine feature in Server 2012 R2 to get AppInsight for Exchange to go through its config tool. After that everything was happy.

Just as a follow-up, I have SAM 6.2.4 installed now and there is no Exchange 2016 application monitor that I can find. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong spot.

No problem. Also wanted to include that I did not need to reboot after installing powershell 2.0.

No they are not supported. Only .bin files are accepted as firmware types in the repository manager.

This is super late but for most powerconnect (3000s anyway) you can find the service tag at 1.3.6.1.4.1.89.53.14.1.7.1, 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.3000.1.2.100.8.1.4.1, or 1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10895.3000.1.2.100.8.1.5.1

As a somewhat automated workaround until / unless this gets fulfilled, you could maybe use something like WinSCP and create a script that copies the files to the devices ahead of time to stage it, then use solarwinds to just run your "request system software add". We have the same situation and that's what we're doing.

Weird that I don't have that product in my available downloads. 6.2.3 and a hotfix for it is all I have. 

It only works with vendors whose devices have firmware files with the .bin extension. I don't' know of any other than Cisco at this point that do that to test but I can say positively it will not work as-is for Dell, Juniper, or Aruba.

No worries. We actually had Junos Space for a while and you're right, it does a sweet job of firmware upgrades. We moved to this to attempt a more vendor agnostic approach like you're talking about, so I'm also really interested in this feature too.

Woohoo!

I've installed NPM 12. My impressions so far are positive for the most part. Unfortunately for feedback it always seems easier to highlight negatives than positives. A couple of issues that I see are the new font has a lot of padding above and below so the same screen pre 12 is much more compact, whereas with 12 it seems…

YES! This feature would be incredible for executive views.

I haven't installed this yet so I haven't verified this but it's 2017 and we're still writing Cisco-only features into a network management tool? Come on...

If you don't include a SAN (EDIT: SAN in the certificate) for the netbios name and you're in an intranet situation (as opposed to browsing always by FQDN), it breaks some alerting link variables in alerts - the acknowledge alert link will have to be rebuilt; I had to modify the link to node URL variable as well. It can be…

I understand. To piggyback off of what @sja said below, it's just frustrating to hear the difference between marketing and reality. I hesitate to use the word "deceptive" but this statement certainly leaves a lot of information out of the picture: "...single vendor-neutral script..." source:…

Yeah - vmware fixed this I believe in 6.0U2, but definitely it's fixed in 6.5

Ticket 925314. The first suggestion was to enable extended VLAN information in the NCM Inventory settings. That didn't work. Then the suggestion was to upgrade to NCM 7.4 and to apply Orion platform 2015.1.2 Hotfix 6.That didn't work. It was only then that I got the answer that "it was mentioned that NCM doesn't collect…

Craig, would you mind speaking to this point a little more? If you aren't getting this, the first question I would have would be are the ports managed with UDT, which it being in the "Port Details" section of the "Node Details" should answer that. If you're just getting MAC addresses and not IP's, you will probably need to…

Are there any plans to support GPT partitions going forward? I don't think I read that in the roadmap, but all of my in-guest iscsi luns are GPT. I have done the manual mapping but it'd be nice to have that. Maybe i'll add it as an idea.

So I'm replying to myself to say I got a resolution (if not good news) on this case. It turns out vmware is returning nonsensical information for the OIDs they say are correct for monitoring CPU and Memory. Solarwinds is reporting what is being sent to it via SNMP but that's wrong. I'm opening a case with vmware now to see…

This is not a bug - you're right pratikmehta003​, it's because it's being polled via vCenter. It could be made more apparent why in the GUI though. Quote from a recent support ticket I opened: With regard to your issue about list resources. This is by design because the CPU/Memory is already being monitored via VMware API.…

Look into using compliance reporting for this. You can search your config (in 7.4? and newer I believe) for a vlan that you specify. Then you can run a remediation script on that particular config block. you can set the list of nodes you want to run this on.

I was unable to find JobTracker. I'm not sure if that's a component that I just don't have installed or if they changed how it functioned since the original post in 2011. However, doing the other two did resolve my issue with a device that wasn't polling.

In addition to HolyGuacamole's comment, I'd just want to add that you can definitely do SSL with the site. See Enabling SSL/HTTPS for Orion Web site and SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Enabling SSL (https) for Orion Web Console. In terms of user management, you can configure Active Directory integrated access to the site.

As far as I know you can only do one command per config type. You would have to create as many config types as you have commands to run.

I just posted a guide on how to verify the version on the backup partition (reporting on the output of "show system snapshot media internal") here: Using Compliance Reporting to Verify Juniper Alternate Slice Version​. I hope it comes in handy.

I know this is super late but in case this is helpful - it can dramatically increase CPU usage on a router if you have many subnets that it's the gateway for.
