I know the VMAN forums aren't quite as busy as some of the others since there are a ton of unanswered questions on here I've noticed, but I'm hoping somebody can help me here. Anyone?

Anyone know where I can find something like this? Thank you

While you probably could script this, unless you need to do this continuously I would look at using the new Alert Action Assignment feature of NPM 12/SAM 6.2.4 instead. With NPM 12+ you can create an alert action and then assign that action to multiple alerts. From then on, any changes you make to the original action will…

Sounds to me you may have a restrictive SNMP view set against the SNMP credential you are using. You mind sharing the SNMP config you are using (you can obviously block out any private information before submitting it)? I've noticed that a lot of the sample SNMP configs for Cisco devices have a SNMP view that limits the…

Invoke-Command relies on PS Remoting though, doesn't it? We don't have that setup on any of our Windows servers (except for the AppInsight for IIS/Exchange boxes of course). It looks like the Password in the SQL table CredentialSettings uses RSA encryption via their Self-Signed certificate, so I'm wondering if I can use…

Bump. Since I'm sure I can't put a ticket in for this (Support doesn't include customizations like this I believe), my only hope is to get some help on Thwack. Calling on aLTeReGo. Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi! Something with this new GUI upgrade has changed the way it handles HTML in the Message field and I don't know why.

Old post I know, but wondering if you ever figured this out or got an answer elsewhere? On our 2008 R2 server (with NPM 11.5.3 installed) Output Caching fol the SolarWinds NetPerfMon site was already enabled (don't know if someone did that themselves or if that was set by default). Over the last couple of days the w3wp.exe…

Did you ever figure out a solution to this? We're experiencing the same issue and can't figure out a good way to solve it.

I'm needing something similar to what you mention above. Did you ever find a solution?

I think I'm experiencing a similar issue. As far as I know the Condition is working fine, however, in the alert message SQL variables (macros with custom SQL statements inside of them, like: ${SQL: SELECT Caption FROM Nodes WHERE NodeID = ${N=SwisEntity;M=NodeID}}) are not getting resolved. I've tested our SQL code…

It absolutely should work this way. That's one of the biggest points of groups is their ability to have that Parent > Child relationship. The parent group contains all of the nodes in its children groups and thus when an application template is assigned to a parent group all of the nodes in the children groups should be…

I needed something like this to find how many and which alerts were using some Old Custom Properties of ours. I created an Orion report out of it, but i have the report too customized for our needs to make it useful to share the entire thing, so instead I'll just supply the SWQL queries I used down below. To run these…

Bump Anyone got any idea on this? I'm really stumped here and have a meeting today where they need these Event Reports. Thank you

You ever get this solved? I'm having the same issue.

Our SWIS logs are still full of these. Anyone seen this before or know what this means?

You ever get this figured out? I'd like to use the Exit Codes for my script and stumbled upon this post whilst researching it.

To add some more info and a touch more mystery to this post, I queried the Nodes table for all of the 32 distinct NodeID's found in this log file and I joined the Nodes table to the VIM.VirtualMachines table too. What I found was that most of the NodeId's were found in the VIM.VirtualMachines table. I did find 10 NodeID's…

Yeah, like jxchappell says, you're not gonna be able to do this like you are saying because the primary key id's in various database tables of one instance would conflict with those same tables in your other instance. There is however a Powershell script floating around (I believe it's on the Orion SDK GitHub page under…

Bump. Anybody got some tips for F5 Viprion monitoring?

A couple months old, I know, but in the SolarWinds documentation it specifies that UCS can't have LDAP authentication enabled. I take that to mean that even if you use local authentication then it still won't work since you have LDAP authentication enabled. I have no clue why Orion says it can't monitor UCS devices that…

Yep, here you go: Set up Network Insight for F5 BIG-IP load balancers - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support It breaks down what data it gets from SNMP and iControl. Now, one thing that giving Orion iControl access does is allow Orion to rotate members in/out of pools. This may scare some F5 admins. There are two…

Did you ever get this figured out? I'm working with setting up F5 configs right now.

Apparently you aren't the first to have this question, as I just read this post here: Why does the ${StorageFilename} variable cause a F5 .ucs file to get a garbled.config file name? Did you ever figure it out or get an answer?

For anybody else that runs into this issue it is because the Custom Charts can only plot statistics that are integer values. If you look in the SWQL table Orion.APM.DynamicEvidence you will see that the Avg, Min, and Max NumericData columns are all double values. Simply multiply whichever NumericData column you are using…

Have you tried turning up the timeout values? If not go to "%InstallVolume%\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\SWNetperfmon.DB" on your Primary Orion server and your Additional Polling Engines, scroll all the way to the bottom and Increase your Connection "Timeout" (mine is 60) and perhaps your "Load Balance Timeout"…

First, it looks like in your Scope section you are selecting the specific interfaces you want alerted on, then in your trigger you are redefining this using rules (Interface Name Contains Quest, Node Names Contain R1 or R2). This is redundant. Do one or the other, not both. Having said that, please read on... Second, based…

You ever find a cause/solution to this? I'm seeing the same thing on a couple of our Additional Polling Engines...

If it works like the old one then I believe you just need to limit the VMware account you are using to not allow it to read the hosts/clusters you want precluded. Once you do that VMAN won't even see the hosts/clusters you don't want included in your license.

Post what SWQL? My issue isn't with writing the SWQL. I know how to do that. My issue is that I have to write SWQL at all... I shouldn't have to. Percent used/free for each file share should be kept in the database. Thresholds for the percent used/free values should be able to be set against each share. We should be able…

The Buddy Drop that SolarWinds support supplied me fixed our DPA Integration woes. Thanks SolarWinds!
