Hi there ckumarb​, I believe you need to migrate all the polling off the APE, then delete it. I have had a quick look at my system and i couldn't see a way of removing the APE, but then I found this - Delete polling engines But after reading up on Manage Orion Polling Engines , I am guessing that as the installation…

A few things you could try, in: 1. Logs - have you enabled the debug options and had a trawl through the logs? From the application view, at the end of the URL and you will see something like: NetObject=AA:xxxx The number is the application ID. On the poller the the node is polled, navigate to…

Many thanks

Yes, but a VERY poor one in comparison. Have you actually compared the output of an Excel report versus a PDF one?

Oh this might be helpful to see the usernames from the credentials groups above: /****** WMI Credentials - Group and usernames ******/ SELECT c.ID ,c.Name ,cp.Value -- ,c.CredentialType ,c.CredentialOwner ,cp.Name FROM Credential c INNER JOIN CredentialProperty cp ON c.ID = cp.CredentialID WHERE c.CredentialOwner LIKE…

Looking at cEigrpPeerAddrType 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.449.1.4.1.1.2 it uses the Inet Address Type, which I believe translates to: InetAddressType ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION STATUS current DESCRIPTION "A value that represents a type of Internet address. unknown(0) An unknown address type. This value MUST be used if the value of the…

I tried this, but the values did show up in Orion. Is there a second step required?

I did have a crack at updating the CustomProperyValues table (in test and dev), but the updated rows did not show up in Orion.

Thanks for the input, and your solutions looks perfect for us. But I'm getting issues, namely: Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure RH_HCOpsAlertsNAck, Line 120 Invalid column name 'hname'. And.. Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Procedure RH_HCOpsAlerts, Line 120 Invalid column name 'hname'. In both stored procedures hname is…

When you say calculations, how do you mean? Performance data is collected 'as is' from the device, if that data is performance related (CPU, memory, disk, etc) it is usually stored in the database raw and then calculated into min/avg/max values, if not in the short term then certainly in the aggregated tables. Data…

Ahhh, ISO 8601, if only the whole world could embrace you

max348 Have a look at this post - Possible to get Status Icons in Web Report? And you should be able to sort it. Good luck

Deltona - Have you seen NTA version 4.4 is available​? Your wish has been answered

I know this isn't a SolarWinds answer, but if the devices are unknown to Orion, could I recommend the nmap application? Nmap: the Network Mapper - Free Security Scanner It is capable of port scanning your devices, amongst other things, and should be able to provide the information you're after and without needing to know…

Yes, they can be rather troublesome at times. Especially on the first few attempts First I'd use PowerShell ISE, to ensure that the script will run and returns the correct data to the prompt, then wrap in the required Statistic and optional Message strings. Once i am happy with my code and the returned results, I'd then…

Hi Sotheris, The PowerShell monitors need to return their results in a specific format to be accepted, that being that the results are wrapped with a "Satistic: <value>" and an optional "Message: <string>" formatting. Have look in your Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\APM\SampleScriptMonitors\PowerShellScripts, where…

I have found an identical problem on one of our customer sites, the Nodes table had some 49 corruptions, below is one example: NodeIDCaptionEmail_Alert1550<server> <email-domain>_alert??????@<email-domain>?.?c?o?m?;???c?rg?.a?l?e?r?t?s??@?r?rg?g.co??m;jam?es.d?a?le@r?grg?.co?m;s?te?phen.?na?m?e@<email-domain>?.??com I have…

You can't merge the databases easily, and I would certainly bring the versions up to matching levels before attempting it. With every just about every Orion upgrade there is a change to the database schema, which could cause you a lot of pain. If you need to keep the historical data and have an active support contract,…

But I hear that there are good things happening, with regards to the HA upgrade process.... @aLTeReGo

Hi there, 1. Duplicate IPs and Hostnames, try a bit of SQL: --Find duplicate IP address-- Select IP_ADDRESS, count(*) FROM NODES GROUP BY IP_address having COUNT (*)>1 --Find duplicate node names-- SELECT Caption, count(*) FROM Nodes GROUP BY Caption having COUNT (*)>1 And then a manual process of sorting it out. I agree…

Only trying to help, maybe you should have been clearer, first time around then I think you need to look at your alert then. Get it so that only the parent device can raise the alert for the GPS unit, and no other devices. As your description is a little "high level", if we could see what alert you are using (trigger…

Is this field only available for Windows DCs? In our own environment this data is only populated in our DCs, not on any of our other Windows 2008/2012 servers and then they reflect the continent, not the physical location. I tried using a bit of Powershell (and wbemtest) to set the field in Win32_NTDomain, but Solarwinds…

What version does that alert turn up in, as I can't see it on ours? We're still on NPM 12.1.

Hi Hans, From the alert you configured, go and edit your alert email message body. 1. Change the "Output preview shows the current values on specific test object:" so that it points at the application you are working on (search by hostname or application name). 2. Using the top Search tool, type in statistic, this will…

Hans, Very easy to rectify, just add a new PowerShell script monitor and use something like: $files = gci \\server\path\path\*.inv #edit the path,edit or remove the file type to suit. $tmp = $files | Measure-Object $errors = $tmp.Count $threshold = 1500 If ($errors -ge $threshold) { Write-Host "Message: There are $errors…

Hi VCF4theWIN, The $CorePluginConfigurationContext XML looks okay, so I would check if the Credential ID is being properly resolved. Is $wmiCredentialsId being correctly assigned a value? Yaquaholic

Overlapping IP ranges, and for SNMP monitored devices...

Without out knowing your custom properties, I can only guess at what your Groups are...

Hi Lexxtia, You could create a NCM Job to run the "dir flash:" command over each Cat device, at least then you'll know which ones need attention before automating the upgrade. Rich

Have you tried SNMP monitoring the hosts, as well as via the VCC?
