  • Using the SolarWinds WMI Browser I can browser down to the same servers and get values. Respectfully, Thomas A. Iannelli, B.E.E.E, M.S.E.E.

  • You can also get all the wireless clients listed out besides the APs themselves.
  • As Mark asked above there are a few more details we would need to assist with this. Specific models and metrics you are looking for. For example, once I added the Cisco Meraki dashboard to NPM using the API, it picked up all the access points. This is a sample of one AP and the dashboard controller.
  • OK I found an article by jbiggley​ that answers my confusion on behavior. [Agent Polling and PowerShell Scripts ] So the other thing I am wondering is permissions to the path. If you tweak your script something like this what result do you see? $path = 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL…
  • I noticed the errors in the logs kept pertaining to the same set of dates. They seemed too old. I stopped services and then manually deleted the directories in the errors. I started services again on the NTA data store and everything was working again. I believe that there was a disruption of service caused by some moves.…
  • Deltona‌ here is the closing remarks from the case. Product version 5.1.0b-914609 Severity 3 - Medium Support level Production Support Agreement Issue category System Management Issue description The version of SNMP on the hosts fails to return the correct datastore size to our monitoring system. The datastore is 12.47 TB…
  • Worked with VMWare to get one of the hosts upgraded to ESXi 5.1 1483097 which is supposed to contain the latest snmpd. After the system started up I performed an SNMPWALK and the results did not change. I will continue to work with VMware on this because it is only the two drives that are larger than 8 TB that have the…
  • We want to get an Enterprise view of our storage growth to report to senior executives. We have a diverse storage architecture thus were trying to get a picture from the systems we are monitoring in NPM. The example below shows the currently monitored systems reporting for week 21 - Disk Size, Disk Space Used, Peak Disk…
  • The math presented represents the statistical percentages of 95% and 99.7% of all samples fall within those values respectively. So if you want to extend those in either direction by 10% then you just do more math - Warning: ((${MEAN} + 2 * ${STD_DEV})*1.05) OR ((${MEAN} - 2 * ${STD_DEV})*0.95) and Critical: ((${MEAN} + 3…
  • I will check with my wife, but yes that is typically how she writes these up on the cards. I just scanned these I didn't retype them.

  • 1. For the permissions it is our internal change control process. Other users rely on that data and if it were to just disappear that would not be nice. I need to ensure all parties have no open incidents they are working that would require that data. 2. I do not have a support case one yet. I can open one today. Which set…

  • Perhaps this way, this isn't the syntax but the logic of it for IPv4. Take the network of interest and break it down so you get an IP address in every possible subnet. Since there are many tools for subnet calculation the algorithm should be available some where. So for a 16 bit mask you would generate 32,768 ip addresses,…
  • This is what I don't get about your question. The source port of the communication is what is known as an ephemeral port [Ephemeral port - Wikipedia ] it is not fixed except for the session/connection. Listening ports are fixed, they have to be. The source ports used vary by operating system but you can control the…
  • Unfortunately wluther that did not appear to be the issue for me. I got the same error this morning and had to reboot. serena​ I did open a support case, number 00122061, and collected Orion Diagnostics before I did a reboot. Hopefully to capture the system state while it was issuing the error. Once I reboot the system…
  • MathieuJM​ I am checking with the SolarWinds product team. It is straight forward how the scripts will be executed when you have the Preferred Polling Method = Agentless. But when it is set to Agent how does that affect the Execution Mode?​ I'll let you know when I hear back.
  • snangunoori​ - There would be two steps. First you need to create a custom template, here is a place to start with: Create custom templates in SAM You can also find other examples for PowerShell monitoring templates. Once you have done this and assigned it to nodes. You can create a custom report to generate current values.
  • Yes it is. We have an office there.
  • To avoid making assumptions about the solution, what is the operating system for the nodes these log files exist on?
  • I assume this is a PowerShell script. If so and you are able to share it. I would be happy to help and engage some others as needed.
  • Thank you sir. I see what you did by using the Set-SwisObject to perform the CRUD operation. That looks easier than using the SwisVerb, since I already have the URI for the volumes of interest. I will put that into my script and let you know how it goes. The ultimate goal is to have SolarWInds Monitor the volumes and…
  • xfaulknor​ That is more of what I was asking. Are you just sending emails to Service Desk? There are better ways to do that perhaps. P.S. SolarWinds does have both Service Desk and Web Help Desk offerings. They are distinct from the monitoring features in SAM.
  • I just did a rudimentary script outline there. I don't know the contents of your log file. The script above works if the shell script overwrites the log file each time and the only thing in it is the result you shared. It reads the line, splits it into an array of items - @words - delimited on the colon ";", then uses…
  • designerfx​ I do like this solution, by HolyGuacamole, for way to alert on a dramatic change in the last 24 hours. So from day to day it highlights a change. The approach we took was too try and look at longer range and say, was this change out of the ordinary. Our workers can have a project [volume] sit ideal for days.…
  • I opened a support ticket with Solarwinds and discovered this is an issue with the version of SNMP on the ESXi server. From: SolarWinds, Inc Sent: Thursday, January 30, 2014 9:48 AM To: Iannelli, Thomas Subject: Case Update: 572489 - Datastore Volume Size Update for Case #572489 - "Datastore Volume Size" Thomas, our…
  • I would like to have the same functionality on the VMware ESX details for the disk table as we get now for the CPU, Memory, and Network. The OID's are easy enough to pull, but it is the assoication with a particular VM and transforming the data from the counter that it is into a useful "gauge" that would be much…
  • I can provide you with WIreshark Packet cpatures if that would help any.
  • So far I have tried several of our servers, not all. All the Orion services are started. Commercial Version. I have only a single polling system. Yes, It worked in the past. I installed the latest version of SAM and HotFix 1. I have not tried the regedits in your post: as I do not get enough information to see an invalid…
  • Specifically for the BGP peer status you might consider a HTTP/HTTPS monitor in Solarwinds and use the Palo Alto API. Then if it does not return the peer-status you expect in the XML response trigger an alert in SolarWinds. Start on this page: Get Started with the PAN-OS XML API You can construct a query that looks like…
