Need to play a sound on down Alert.

If you're running NPM 11.5, you can use the Desktop Notification Tool:

If you're using older versions, you can follow this workaround:

SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Enabling audible alerts (Play a Sound action) on Windows Server 2008

Thank you for the link will try this tomorrow once at work.

Cheers!!!!

No problem. Let us know how you get on

Hi...I have installed Desktop Notification Tool on my laptop. It prompts me to connecton the Server but it fails. I am certain with my credentials but I am having this error:"Exception has been thrown by the target  of an invocation".

Any advise on this please. Thank you.

For logging to Orion with Desktop notification tool please use same address which you used in browser.

Examples:

Http://Orionserver.mydomain.com (Server is running on default 80 port)

Http://Orionserver.mydomain.com:8787 (Server is running on  8787 port)

192.168.1.10 (server is running under 80 port)

192.168.1.10:8787 (server is running under 8787 port)

httpS://orionserver.mydomain.com (Server is running under HTTPS with default 443 port)

httpS://orionserver.mydomain.com:444 (Server is running under HTTPS under 444 port)

In HTTPS you have to have trusted certificate in client machine, that means in browser you have to have green flag when you accessing the Orion Server.

Thanks aLTeReGo‌!
