What? November Monthly Mission - Help Desk Paradise

When? November 4th - December 1st, 2019

Where? THWACK Monthly Mission - November 2019

 

SolarWinds can deliver you to Help Desk Paradise. On-premises or in the cloud, it’s your deployment choice. Both options have features and functionality to simplify handling help desk requests. Plus, with the seamless integration of remote support software, both solutions will have you enjoying paradise without ever leaving your desk.

 

If you accept this mission, you’ll compare and contrast the two options, and learn more about which help desk makes sense for you.

 

Choose a ticket to your destination. Whether you go cloud-based or stay on-premises, with these options, you’re on your way to Help Desk Paradise.

 

Start your mission -->

ability to use ICMP Echo for Netpath services
Some devices only respond to ping...I use NetPath not just for webservices, but all external devices that connect my network...it builds a better view of my network than any other tool Solarwinds has.

I understand that ICMP isn't the intended function and using a specific port is how it is supposed to work but what's wrong with giving the option? I don't think anyone is saying to change the feature to ONLY use ICMP but the "nay" responses are almost worded as such (even though I don't think they mean it that way). The questions keeps getting…

Out of the Box Alerts
How many of you use the out-of-box alerts? I asked recently and received some good hints on what they do like making a copy of an out of box alert and editing it.  Now I am wondering- what do you all use and how do you use them. Here is a spread sheet that shows what alerts Im using (They are being evaluated) and how I am using them.   Would… (Show moreShow less)

i am looking at my SWQL and get an error stating, "Entity Orion.Netflow.Source does not contain requested property DetailsUrl of navigation property i.NetFlowSource"   I do not see the property in Orion.NetFlow.Source called DetailsUrl.   I think that I am missing something here.   I am on NPM 12.3, just for the record.   Mark

Alert Rule Reporting
App owner asks "what alerts are configured to trigger for all of my 500 different servers monitored via SAM".  I can't answer without spending days manually looking at our hundreds of alerts rule to determine which ones are applicable to these 500 servers.  Give me the ability to report upon this information.  Custom SQL query isn't going to cut…

Prevent tech from reassigning ticket
How can I prevent a tech from reassigning a ticket to themselves? For example, a tech can search for a ticket and reassign it to themselves, no matter the tech group or request type.

Your only options are going to be under Setup > Techs > Tech Permissions: ‘Allow re-assignment’ and ‘New Ticket Assignment Override’   That should limit as much as possible.

Is there a way to restore alerts from a database backup?
Ever since we upgraded to the latest version of NPM our systems alert emails verbiage has changed. I am trying to find a way for our DB guys to go into our old backups and just pull the alerts...if it's possible??

Thanks! Unfortunately this go around the list of alerts that were changed were user-defined. I will definitely keep this in mind for the new setup though.
