+1 excellent suggestion

Solarwinds, please please please add native hardware health for Brocade devices. This really shouldn't be so hard. Thanks

@"jblankjblank" okay, partial solution. By going to the interface with discards, i can 'override' the global value and use the baseline value which is more apt not to go into alarm. However, i strongly encourage Solarwinds to select color designations which differentiate between "down" and threshold violations.

An issue I'm having with Orion maps that i could use some input on. We have a network with QoS intended to protect high priority traffic. When discards occur, which is the expected behavior, the circuit displays as red, indicating an issue. This is a false positive, but would really like the ability to control the color of…

@"jblankjblank" thank you for your response. While I agree that separating errors and discards would be a benefit (i've actually created separate alerts for errors and discards), my issue is with the way Orion Maps handles errors/discards versus how Network Atlas handles the same thing. My experience with Network Atlas is…

yes, 1000 times

Can we please get an update from Solarwinds on this functionality (traps -> advanced alerts). Although the majority of our network devices are snmp enabled, we have several systems which by design we cannot poll and email alerts are not adequate. I have been working on work-arounds for weeks, but feel this is a fundamental…

No update received from Solarwinds.

When I replace the out of the box code on the file age monitor wildcard with your code, I get this

thank you @"mapujece" I didn't see this until now. Can I just use an existing template like "File Age Monitor Wildcard" and the code with your code above?

I am also having this issue. I don't know if it's related, but when trying to navigate Solarwinds, sometimes the page changes are super fast, but other times it will just time out. When it appears to be timing out, if i stop the browser then immediately refresh, the new page loads. Not sure what is causing this. I've…

Thank you so much for the information!

I have this exact same problem. vCenter was in Solarwinds monitoring and worked. Removed vCenter, then added it back. Credentials passed. Now, the status and machine type now show as 'unknown', so almost like SW doesn't know it's a vCenter. Also, the ESXi servers do not show up.

@"RichardLetts" any ideas?

Hey guys, i'm using custom SQL alerts to alert on traps using the "Richard Letts Method" outlined above. However, i have a use-case where the clear trap comes within 1 or 2 seconds of the clear trap, which means there isn't enough time for the SQL query to find the SET traps that don't have matching CLEARS. My requirement…

@"jm_sysadmin" can you please elaborate on how i can make the above use case of pushing the new IP's IPAM discovers to a discovery job? How did you set this up, where does the script run etc.?

restarting the admin service did not work for me either. And yes, that is where i downloaded the version from

scratch that, the compatibility page provide the online installer, and i need the offline. Any ideas?

never mind, i think i found it on the Software compatibility page, once i filled out current and desired, it provided the download

I'm on 2020.2 HF1, and when i attempt to install 2020.2.1 HF2 the installer states "all products are up-to-date". A previous poster states i need to upgrade to 2020.2.1 HF1 first, but i don't see it in the portal. Can someone please advise?

I've updated my environment that was on 2020.2.1 HF1 no problems. However, I cannot upgrade my environment that is on 2020.2 because the installer states "all products up-to-date". Anyone have any ideas? @"jblankjblank" , @"driegel" - can you direct me to where you downloaded 2020.2.1 from the portal, i can't find it. I…

click on the node, then select 'list resources', then 'uncheck' the interfaces you don't want to monitor.

dmatar, Hardly. I'm pretty transparent about my 'shop' on my profile and was simply offering some insight on the alternative solution you mention. Grass isn't always greener, but if you think it is, then by all means go.

thanks

Not that I know of, I require the same thing. There are some workarounds that you can find within Thwack, but you'll need strong SQL skills which I don't have

tdanner​, First, thank you so much for your help. Briefly, here is the scenario: We have a fairly dated but important application that listens to all of our radio channels and detects silence (silence is bad). When silence is detected, the application sends a trap message to Solarwinds. All traps come into Solarwinds from…

Right now I have these traps tagged with the 'buscode', but ideally I'd like to tag each trap with a combination of several varbinds (node, interface, port, buscode). Then, adjust the queries to match

Richard, thanks so much for your response. I have been working from the post you're referring too, and it fits the scenario where I have a generic trap and the trigger/clear value comes from a varbind. My problem is the other scenario, where I have one source (IP address), the MIB provides an OID for trigger, and a…

I copied and pasted the URI / API directly from the OpsGenie integration page (see 1st image). My secure proxy is configured exactly the same for the VictorOps integration (which works). In the Alert post text I copied/pasted this: opsgenie-integration/triggerActionBody.txt at master · opsgenie/opsgenie-integration ·…
