+1 I raised a case with solarwinds and was pointed to this thread so I've voted it up. Below is the response I got. From my understanding you would like to have the NetPath services on the NOC View that can rotate between them but never "log out", correct? I found a feature request on thwack for a Resource about NetPath…

Looks like I missed this, is it available as a video anywhere? Thanks.

Thanks for the answers, appreciate it. If you could share how it can be altered that would be great or do I need to raise a support case, I only want to up it to 12 and will drop it back down to 10 if we see any resource issues. Is it just a config file change? Thanks, worto.

Hi, I've seen the following from SW - The ability to add custom chart labels in PerfStack is a feature request we are tracking internally under PS-996 So hopefully this will be a possibility soon(ish)

ah yes - thanks Ravik, this does seem to be pretty much the same request as this one I created https://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/8729 If anyone has the ability to merge them feel free.

Perfect - Thanks!

This is great news if it works! We've been trying to use NCM 7.5.1 for vulnerability patching but it's nowhere near good enough so we've started looking for other products, there doesn' seem to be anything out there that does everything we want, the main issues we have with NCM 7.5.1 is all the false positives we got due…

Hi - Perfstack is great, could just do with two things for us - The ability to add a title to each graph (not just the top of the page) because when we have issues we stick relevant perfstacks on a screen on the wall so management don't keep asking us what the graph looks like every two mins! now they keep asking us what…

Thanks for all the help in this thread - I'll give that a try, seems to make sense, thanks for the links too! Cheers, worto.

Hi, Thanks for the replies - sry for my slow response I was away for the weekend. Yes this is the sort of thing I'm after, the IP's I want covered by the groups are actually:- 10.3.1.0-10.7.7.255 = central infrastructure 10.8.1.0 - 10.30.13.255 = stores It doesn't really matter if there is an overlap over or before these…

hey - thanks for the links Grant - that works a treat :) worto.

'Did the DBA mention which tables are fragmented?' no he didn't but I can find out, he knows a lot about SQL but nothing about solarwinds so I'm just trying to check that his suggestions won't break anything application wise. If you do have chance to check about the indexes that'll be great, let me know if you don't have…

Hi, I would like to test this template too please we have 3 checkpoint firewalls running R.70 Is there any feedback from others who have tried it - it's the first time I've used a non out of the box template so it would be nice to know some others have this working before I start. Cheers, Steve.

Thanks for the reply which hotfix was it? I see we haven't applied this one Orion Platform 2017.1-Hot Fix 3 But there is nothing in the release notes about netpath?

We have done the index rebuilds which took 20mins and we did have data loss in solarwinds while it was being carried out, is there any way round this as our DBA has suggested that we run the index rebuild job once a week? do other people just not bother doing this or do you suffer with gaps in the data every now and again?…

That's exactly what I was trying to do, thanks so much for such a quick and detailed reply! cheers.

Just a quick one to say thanks for posting the answer to this, I've just followed them to fix a very similar problem after installing 8.5.1 SP2. cheers, Steve.

Hi, Thanks for the reply, thats very similar to what I had tried, the closest I got to what you have suggested was the same as yours but the other way round I had. Trigger when any apply node name contains 6509 node name contains 4006 Trigger when all apply CPU load is greater than 75 I've swapped i round to what you have…

Thanks, thats working. Cheers, Steve.

hey - thank you very much for that it worked first time following those instructions! All sorted & you've saved me having to raise a ticket :) Cheers, Steve.

Hi, Thanks for the replies - I upgraded to veersion 10 in the end and it seems to have fixed the issue - not sure if it was the SQL SP1 install or the NPM v10 install that fixed it but it's working fine now. Cheers, Steve.

ah, OK thanks for the info guys at least I can stop searching for the answer now then! cheers, worto.

Thanks for the quick reply I'll get a quote from our server team then.

Perfect thanks - I didn't know there was an interface view option in there! It is a subset of nodes so now I can do the whole thing (carefully!) with a few clicks. Once again - thanks for the answer. worto.

thanks for the info, I'll give it a try with SQL on the better server of the 2 then. The licence we use is : Orion Network Performance Monitor SLX. We don't use Netflow as we have crannog currently doing that, we only use NPM and the engineers toolkit which we have 5 or 6 licences for. cheers, steve.

brill - thanks - just tried it with firefox and the extentions from that thread and it's working perfectly! You've saved me a lot of time looking into that! cheers, worto.

Hi, What was the name of the log file you deleted? I'm getting this issue and that sounds like something to quickly try before I log a ticket. thanks, worto.

Thanks, I have what I wanted now. Group the Routers/Switches = Node Group Auto expand the node List = Group Seems to do the job. thanks, Steve.

Hi - Thanks for the reply, just tested this and it works perfectly, I didn't realise I could add interfaces to a group, not sure why I never made that mental leap when I already discovered you can have netpaths in a gruop. anyway it's more work but it will do the job. Would be nice if there was just a tick box so when you…

Thanks for the docs I'll have a look at them now (I was being a bit blind then!) As for the upgrades I should have said the old server is on 8.5.x I was hoping to avoid a potentially messy upgrade by simply installing a new v9\9.1 no the new server and exporting the database over from the old 8.5.x server to the new…
