Looks like upgrade caused an issue on DB, this particular error is related to SQL DB. Check the below link (its just a reference but I dont think it would help you much to resolve your issue) http://www.verdiem.com/kb/specified-cast-not-valid-error-occurs-when-starting-sustainability-dashboard…

Looks like a permission issue on your account, go to managed accounts and check what permissions are set for your id, if that looks good then click on the checkbox next to your account -> click edit -> check what permissions you have under module tab Hope it helps

Just drop a note to sales@solarwinds.com or raise a case with solarwinds for accurate information.

It isn't a free tool, you will need to purchase a license for it from SolarWinds. Yes you do have a trial version to test it out.

Try pinging your solarwinds ip from the system command prompt from where you are trying to open your url, if ping is working fine, rather than hostname use your solarwinds ip in link https://(X.X.X.X)/orion rather than https://hostname/orion, if it works from the ip in URL then reach out to your platform team and check if…

Your session has expired. Please log in again. I don't think this issue has anything to do with NPM. Restore the defaults on browser and give it a try. Hope it helps.

1. What sort of false alarms ? 2. Why is it unstable (resources - if so what sort of resourcing issues)? If its something to do with the resources on Solarwinds servers you will need to define a proper regular health check for Solarwinds servers (space issues, memory issues etc) 3. Always try and remove unwanted…

If you have SAM , create a simple http or https monitor and place the website url on this monitor. If you do not have a node to place it on, add your Solarwinds server as a node and place the template on top of that node

I dont really thing they charge for SCP, go through the below link's (you have everything that you need for SCP) Every SCP Question Ever SCP_Exam_Prep_Guide.pdf New SCP feature: e-certificates

I don't think hardware monitoring for avamar or recovery point is supported in SolarWinds by default, wait for other's to confirm. (Keeping UnDP out of scope for this particular request) If you don't a response from anyone on thwack then raise a ticket with SolarWinds.

Best bet for this would be Leon Adato

ah, extremely sorry, bobmarley​ is accurate, the alerting details that he has pasted is perfect, check for 'Engines' table on SolarWinds DB, its the 'keep alive' column which holds the time, that's what you need to look into.....

its a sync issue, try the below solution (link pasted) Re: Polling Engine Down - Database Sync not occurring If you are skeptical, you could try few generic steps, check if the below steps resolve the issue before you try the solution pasted on the link, the error states that your poller couldn't establish a connection…

You should be looking at it from Solarwinds point of view, was that node reachable to Solarwinds when Solarwinds termed it as down ? Please check Node Down Alert configuration and as well check for Packet Loss on the Node at that point of time. Hope it helps

1. When you say availability of the servers what do you exactly mean by that ? If server is down and you have applied APM: Historical Component Availability - component availability will get affected automatically 2. Yup you are correct - you will have to use APM: Historical Component Availability, my first slide is…

Very strange, did you try restarting orion services ?

Point 4 (there is a mistake in the condition applied above, change it accordingly)- the second filter condition should be "Records where DateTime is greater than 2/28/2014" that would give you the current month report for now (March 2014)

1. Login in Orion Report Writer , Click on Create New Report and you can use either of the below one's mentioned based on your requirement. I am sure you are already aware that IIS template would already be applied to the servers for which you have to pic the report for. 2. APM Current Status of Applications can be used…

What kind of an access do you have when you login (Do you have admin rights)? Worth checking your account (if its not an admin account they could have put a limitation on it) and check the views associated to them

Event Viewer -> Applications and Services Logs -> SolarWinds.Net Let me know what error's do you see here

Do you see any events logged in Event Viewer (on primary poller Solarwinds logs) for the same ? If yes are they related to DB timeout or disconn ?

To the best of my knowledge "NO" this isn't possible.

From what I understand , if you modify trigger condition or reset condition on an advanced alert - only then it would clear the alerts stored and re-trigger all of them once. There is NO way to restrict it in Solarwinds for now, probably the reason behind it is simple - the alert that was triggered before you modified it…

No Worries, if you feel the response was helpful please mark it as helpful as it would be useful for others who search for the same. Later on if you apply any of these in your project please post the details and mark it as correct on the same thread

I am not sure what modules you have in your Solarwinds environment, by saying that there are a couple of options 1. Forward Alerts from Solarwinds as an SNMP Trap to Netcool - (provide Solarwinds MIB.cfg to netcool team - ask them to convert it into rules - MTtrapd (snmp) probe) Integrate Solarwinds events with IBM Tivoli…

If its completely random & happens on any page or link that you open in solarwinds, then start with the basics first, see if that helps since you have just upgraded. 1. Restart IIS 2. Run config wizard on website alone and check if that helps If the above things do not help, then proceed with the next step and try the…

What exactly are you trying to do ? When you say you see that error sometimes what do you mean by that ? Are you trying to open a particular node page or are you running a report or is it happening only for a particular view ? OR is it random ? No matter on which page you are on it happens all of a sudden?

Can be done using DB manager on primary poller
