Great news to hear. 

Traffic generated in NetPath and Visual Firewall Connection mapping

This weekend I just received the Thwack pet bandana. I thought I'd share a picture of it as modeled by my 14-week-old Australian Shepherd, Zu-Zu.

Great mission and an interesting couple of products!

Just curious, but when I look at last month's mission I do not see where any prizes were awarded.

It looks like the link to the hint is no longer valid.

Scooby-Doo for the win!

Neither did I.

Friday's poll is dead.

I'm in trouble, I don't drink coffee or tea! Oh wait, I got it right!

I really enjoyed the mission. I think these missions are a really creative way of educating and entertaining the userbase. Thanks!

It's like ground hog day; except it's every Friday. The poll is once again broken.

I don’t see mine. My Thwack username is YellowTJ. Sincerely, Brian Nickels Brian.Nickels@aecom.com Consultant – AECOM Infrastructure Support IBM Corporation 9400 Amberglen Blvd Austin Tx, 78729 (512) 419-5065 office (737) 529-6751 cell [enterprise-design-thinking-practitioner small]

Still no points awarded. And while I'm on here, I have been trying for weeks to get a hold of someone about the wireless speaker I won at the Austin SWUG. I have sent multiple messages to different people and the Thwack admin as well. They all go unanswered. It's getting really frustrating. The speaker never worked and…

Same here! This was driving me crazy!

I can't count the times that everything is showing up and green but the users either can't get in or have other issues not seen by us. And in the end it is the users that pay the bills..

Great Job! You really had to work hard to earn that score! Thank you for brightening my day!

Day 11 is a problem. Here is what I see and when I click on it I get Notice it says I voted for Dynamically generated traffic maps.

For me, the craziness extends throughout the year. It's just one day in a whole year of madness.

Same for me too!

I just returned from the Houston kickoff of the SolarWinds 2025 World tour. I was impressed. It was a great chance to meet with the various program managers and discuss some of the pain points we have been experiencing. If you get invited to the pre-event dinner, GO! It is well worth your time. The presentations were…

Is anyone else not getting points?

Same with me. I did the poll but get no credit for it.

Not to pile on but, it looks like today (9/14) is not working either.

We have a lot of scheduled discoveries going on and I sometimes audit sections of our installation. Some of those audits include scripts and/or SWQL queries I have written. I also have a couple of dashboards I created. It really depends on what I am looking for.

Just an FYI, I have not had a chance to play with dynamic reports yet, but I did notice your use of the case statement. Instead of a case statement you can do a join to the Orion.StatusInfo table to get a text status message.

If I am understanding you correctly, you want a list of all nodes that are unmanaged in SolarWinds. That can easily be accomplished by a SWQL query tied to either a report or a dashboard. I wrote this query to look for nodes that were unmanaged for more than 60 days. You will probably want to modify the SELECT and the…

I know this is an old question but thought I'd chime in. Yes, you can add one or more NetPath objects into a Modern dashboard. Create a table widget. Edit the widget and use a custom SWQL query to select the appropriate NetPath summaries. I used the following query to select only enabled NetPaths: SELECT DisplayName,…

You could also use an agent instead of WMI. The agent has specific ports it uses, and the traffic is encrypted. One of the use cases for agents are to servers behind a firewall.

You can find that in the Orion.Nodes table. Look for the fields CPUCount, CPULoad, MemoryAvailable and MemoryUsed. You will need to figure out how to differentiate between networking gear and other devices. A sample query might look like this: SELECT IPAddress, Caption, Description, DNS, Vendor, Location, Contact, Status,…
