I agree with mesverrum​, we should try and keep the alerts as generic as possible and shouldn't hard code them (I mean like the one you have -> alert on Volume ID), my posts will help you in finding out the volume id that you asked for......

1. Create a Current Status of Nodes, Volumes Report 2. Caption mentioned on select fields is -> Volume Caption

Easiest way would be to create a Volume Status Report, use Report Writer and select Volume Name plus Volume ID plus Node Name to find out which Volume are they referring to and on which node. Hope it helps ...............

1. Login into your primary solarwinds poller 2. All Programs -> Solarwinds Orion -> Network Performance Monitor -> Universal Device Poller 3. Once you open Universal Device Poller on the left hand side at the bottom you would see 'all defined pollers' in your current environment 4. Expand one of the folders go to the last…

are you talking about UnDP (custom pollers created by you) or the OID's used by Solarwinds to get the information on devices ? When you say UDP/MIB looks like you are interested in looking at the OID's used by Solarwinds to fetch the details.

Using Report Writer you can create a simple report and extract the information required using export function: New -> Select 'Current Status of Nodes,Volumes,etc' -> OK Select just 2 fields 1. Network Nodes -> Node Details -> Node Name 2. Polling Engines -> Server Details -> Server Name

Yes, you can directly get this from your webconsole: 1. Goto Settings -> Managed Nodes 2. And on the left hand side Group by filter -> Select 'Polling Engine' , just double click on it and it will list all nodes associated to that poller If you want to extract this from DB let me know

I am suspecting the issue is due to number of hits to the DB, raise a case with SolarWinds and they would let you know where exactly do you have to change the default values (I can't remember where but one of the config files holds these default values in it -> Pool Size=1000;Connect Timeout=20;Load Balance Timeout=120,…

Could be that some files are missing under SolarWinds\Installers\ on the offline installer package, are you facing these errors while running the Configuration Wizard or much before which is during installation of the package ? As well check the Offline Installer Logs , it would probably create a log under…

Whats the error you are facing ?

Settings -> All Settings -> Manage Dependencies

Check out 'manage dependencies' option for parent child co-relationship, create a dependency as required to suppress the alerts generated from children beneath it (note: you will need to define this yourself)

We can do it through Grouping feature in Solarwinds - we can move these monitor's under a single group and create an alert on status of the group (Manage Groups -> Create a new group in Solarwinds move these monitors under it, tick best status, then create an alert based on Group status in Advanced Alerts) - but that isn't…

If its Report Writer that you are taking about - create a Advanced SQL report to extract the same report and use the below query: Note: MODIFY THE SELECT query accordingly. The below query is just an example SELECT Nodes.Caption AS NodeName, Interfaces.Caption AS Interface_Caption, Interfaces.HighPercentUtil AS…

My above post was to filter out interfaces, but then from what I understand as per your requirement you don't want to view interfaces related to certain nodes, to achieve this you will have to use the columns available in Interface Table. As per your requirement -> " I would like to use a "Filter Nodes (SQL)" statement to…

1. I am trying to list Top 10 Interfaces which are not bond0 interfaces in this example "Filter Nodes (SQL)": InterfaceName Not Like 'bond0' 2. The same example when you use regex in "Filter Nodes (SQL)": InterfaceName Not Like '*ond*'

Try exploring custom reports (custom sql or custom swql reports)

Just a wild guess, did you try restarting all orion services on your primary poller ? If possible do that and then check the same.

I have never tested it - i created it on the fly, but the below trigger condition might work for your requirement , it represents 2/4 and 3/4 component failure in the same alert. Playing around with nested loops though Rather you can go with a custom sql alert , will test it when im free and send it across to you. But then…

Hi kreases why dont you modify the views accordingly and remove information or charts that you dont really require ? Please ignore my post if complete information is required 

Hi subash14​, We have 2 known approaches to it (this needs be setup on alert actions - either use SNMP Trap approach or EIF posteifmsg Utility provided by Netcool) 1. Forward Alerts from Solarwinds as an SNMP Trap to Netcool - (provide Solarwinds MIB files to netcool team and ask Netcool team to convert it into rules -…

Last Reboot Time is dependent on SNMP Service on the device (it would have picked this time , hence a false alert)

Are you using SNMP for polling the device ? Check if SNMP service was restarted on the device. Hope it helps.

Hi martian monster​, milligan has pointed you in the right direction, since you are using a type 'application' alert as mentioned on your post: 1. Under trigger action message your current message would look like the one mentioned below which is popping the URL when alert is fired 2. Click on INSERT VARIABLE and search for…

When you add a new device I have never seen a drop down menu for SNMP credentails so far, are you looking at WMI and ICMP ?

Could you let me which component monitor are you talking about ? If its a 'Process monitor on Linux' or 'Process Monitor/Service Monitor/Event Log Monitor on Windows' then I guess it would go via agent port which is already open to monitor them. For other component monitors follow my previous note.

Yes, Its specific to the component monitor that is being used, check out/search for 'SAM Port requirements' on the below link SAM 6.6 system requirements - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support

Using the bundle, the necessary information: which module pollers have been updated in the bundle release is completely missing.-> This really is a good question , I cant remember but then I guess you will have to unpack the bundle (unzip) to check the module version in it. If I am not wrong the bundle would consist of a…

I cant think of a single place to find all that information at once, but yes I can suggest a few: 1. Thwack -> Library & Support (first place to start with , you will find N-1 version details in here) 2. Thwack -> Links -> Click on the one you require , click on 'Learn More' on the product you require (you will find all…
