Curtisi, Thank you. T.J.

Curtis, Thanks again for the quick reply. T.J.

Nicole, Thanks for the heads up/info! I'll read the release notes of the latest LEM versions in addition to the links provided. T.J.

HolyGuacamole, Thank you. T.J.

Nicole, Did someone follow through with this "We've heard this is a really common topic where people get "stuck" with LEM. If we were to cover it in a blog post, video, or other medium, what questions would be most useful to answer?" Was a blog post, video, or other medium created to help people get un-"stuck" with LEM?…

Curtis, Thank you! Sharing the LEM folder (\\W.X.Y.Z\LEM) allows me to schedule backups. Thanks, T.J.

Thanks Curtis!

HolyGuacamole, Thank you for answering my question about the 20GB. I just want to ensure I am on the same page with you and SolarWinds about LEM retention. So, please correct any errors in my summary: 1. LEM will purge old data first then new data when Logs/Data from the diskusage command reaches 90% 2. The recommended…

jhynds, Thanks for the answer. T.J.

Curtisi, Reading this post and the below KB (Run LEM Reports as an administrator) I am in a bit of a pickle. I am hopeful you will help me. Basically, my company does not allow the people who will be running the LEM Reports to have admin access to their PC. What services on the PC is the LEM Report program accessing that…

Curtis, Thanks for the heads up. I thought is pretty unusual not to have a Connector update since April 13. I've updated our LEM Connectors.

Curtis, Thanks for the quick reply! In the example I have pasted above, it does not matter if nodes are listed in a Group or Individually. Because both have the OR statement. Correct? Does placing nodes in a Group help reduce resource usage when a nDepth search is performed? T.J.

Rufat87, Thanks for the tip! T.J.

Nicole, Thanks for the reply. Opening a ticket with SolarWinds Tech support fixed my issue. SolarWinds had me load 6.0.1RC1 6.0.1RC1 fixed two issues: 1. There was a timeout issue between LEM and the Cisco 4260 IPS 2. There was a SSL Handshake issue. From talking with SolarWinds Tech support, both issues were due the Cisco…

Nicole, Thank you for the quick reply. Hmm. LEM rules are firing way too much. Let me investigate how I can tune the rules T.J.

Nicole, I am hopeful you will help me. I am new to LEM and I need a little bit information about archiveconfig. Reading various Thwack post and Knowledge Base Articles, I started a monthly archiveconfig and weekly backupconfig. While I have found a recovery procedure for the weekly backupconfig, I am not finding a…

HolyGuacamole, Thanks for the reply. That is exactly what I am trying to find out: Is there a way to block a node in LEM from obtaining a license? Is there? T.J.

HolyGuacamole and Curtis, Thank for the quick reply and suggestions. I will make changes and test. T.J.

Holyguacamole, Thank you for the reply. I made the changes you described. However, I am still getting events from the servers in which I have placed a NOT (≠) in the logic. Following are screen shots of the Conditions and the Filter. Thank you, T.J. Note: I have removed the Private IP addresses.

HolyGuacamole, Thank you for the post. Reading the SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Resizing a LEM Virtual Appliance v5.4 or above it says "By default, the LEM database is allowed 230 GB of the 250 GB allocated to the LEM virtual appliance." I have one question. What is the 20GB used for? Thank you, T.J.

HolyGuacamole, Thanks for the reply. Following are a few of the MANY Syslog messages received on the ASAs and that I expected to find as LEM Events. (Yes. the ip addresses and acl names have been changed.) However, searching LEM, I was not able to find any Events. I thought that was strange since two separate ASAs had the…

ICE, Thank you! The steps you gave me really helped out. I tweaked them to meet my SolarWinds Orion environment. 1. Access the Application and Service Ports (Settings>NTA Settings>Application and Service Ports) 2. Record the number of Applications NTA is monitoring. (On 1-21-2015 it was 5927) 3. RDP to your Orion server 2.…

Curtis, Thanks for the answer and the tip. Let me investigate. T.J.

Curtis, Thanks for the reply. Trying to backup to \\A.B.C.D\c$\LEM still generates the error “An error occurred attempting to copy a file to \\A.B.C.D\c$. Please reenter the network share credentials.” LEM successfully backsup when I enter the the \\Share\Administrative share (e.g. \\W.X.Y.Z\c$ ) T.J.

Jay, I have a few questions. I am also new to SolarWinds. Using Advanced Alert Manager, I created the above alert. How do I "grab" the SQL Query? How do I run the SQL Query against the database? When I create the condition, Response Time is greater than or equal to 2563, is 2563 seconds or 2563 milliseconds? Thank you,

Curtis, Yes. Following are the first couple of lines from the viewsysinfo. Is there something in the output of viewsysinfo that would give me an indication why Events were not displaying in the Filters even though LEM received syslog messages from the devices? Or, when this problem started? cmc::cmm# viewsysinfo Collecting…

Curtis, I am running LEM v6.0.1 I have attached the first and last pages of a Database Maintenance Report. T.J. First page of Database Maintenance Report Report Last page of Data Maintenance Report

_marco, Are you seeing events from the switches you pointed to LEM in your All Events Filter? If you are, then build a new filter and add your Cisco switches to the filter. Then send the newly created filter to nDepth. nDepth will allow you get an overview of the alarms from your Cisco switches in the last hour. T.J.

Curtis, Thank you for the Cisco VPN Established and Terminated Rule. If I wanted to combine the two rules into one filter, can this be done? Will you post screen shots of these two rules combined into one filter? Thank you, T.J.

Jeff, Did you get a chance to follow up your ticket with a call to SolarWinds tech support (866.530.8040, Option3)? I normally wait on the phone until one of the SolarWinds Tech Support Engineer's picks up. tjreeddoc
