We currently have our company's sites separated into groups, unfortunately when if for example I add a network map into the view for Europe, when I click on the view for North America I have the same content.
Is there a way so that when I edit a group, it doesn't edit all groups?
Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has seen this error.
I need to change the OID that is being polled for my Cisco ISR 4321's for CPU monitoring. By default it goes with n.Cpu.SNMP.CiscoGen3 and I need CiscoGen1. I used to be able to do this with the poller checker tool but I get this error when I click Detect Pollers:
"SNMP Version 3 Authorization Requested, but no/short AuthKey is set"
SolarWinds is polling these devices using SNMPv3 properly. I've tried changing the SNMPv3 auth and priv keys. Deleted/re-added the devices. I can't figure it out. I know this worked before, but I think has stopped working since upgrading to NPM 12 or 12.1.
Here's what I'm currently running:
Orion Platform 2017.1.3 SP3, NCM 7.6, CloudMonitoring 1.0.0, NPM 12.1, DPAIM 11.0.0, QoE 2.3, VIM 7.1.0, SAM 6.4.0, NetPath 1.1.0
I have a ticket open with support, but they are not helping.
Has anyone seen this?
I re-managed a node and it showed up white, re added it through manage nodes and now it's green but response time shows up as no response??? I can ping it, Poll it, and rediscover all successful but still showing packet loss no response?
Thanks, Chad
Loving PerfStack! Is there any way to control permissions to PerfStack projects? Can any Solarwinds user edit or delete one of my projects? Can I make the RO for others if I want? Thanks in advance!
I'm building a new Resource / Widget to add to my NPM front page, and its job is to only show data center switch ports that have errors or discards recorded on them.
The canned "High Errors & Discards Today" reports seems to be a good place to start, so I added it to NPM's front page and started working on customizing it.
I gave it a new Title (Data Center Port Errors & Discards Today), then began to work on the "Filter Nodes (SQL)" field to only show devices in the data centers, and this is where I start having some questions.
I'm looking to capture physical port errors and logical (port-channel or SVI or VLAN) information from a list of devices that includes:
The SQL Filter I'm testing is:
MachineType Like '*55*' OR MachineType Like '*n9000*' OR MachineType Like '*700*' OR MachineType like '*5548*' OR MachineType like '*38*'
There aren't a lot of errors on the devices' ports, so I'm not sure what I've built is actually including all the devices intended.
Each device has a unique name, and perhaps I could build a SQL filter that included all the names, but the options for filtering via name include several items that seem to overlap.
(I'm betting aLTeReGo or sqlrockstar would make short work of this with their SQL/SWQL magic skills!)
Thank you for any considerations you may share, and, as always:
Swift Packets!

Hi everyone,
I'm using Solarwinds Network Performance Monitor SLX license 3 years. I want to creat a interface downtime report for specific interfaces.
I modified Interface downtime summarize - Last 7 days report. When I view report, It shows start datetime, final datetime, status and duration time. So status is meaning? I think result is downtime of interfaces, but it is not correct.
Please explain for me.
And how can I create interface downtime report?
Thanks,
Mai
Hi! Does anyone know the packet/payload size that Netpath sends out? Can't find it anywhere in thwack or in the knowledgbase. Also not in the Netpath config file in the server.
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, The User Experience (UX) team is interested in learning about the most important information to see for anyone who monitors or is interested in monitoring Active Directory (AD). We've created a short survey to hear what you have to say. Take it and earn 250 THWACK points!
Several questions here:
1. How do I bulk clear the map of nodes?
2. Can I only populate the Map with nodes that are members of a specific group?
3. Can I set it so that only Nodes showing down display on the WW map?
I have searched everywhere for answers to these question and come up dry so now I'm just going to put it out there.
Hi
Slightly odd problem here: I have a scheduled network discovery that is set to import all devices from 2 OUs in Active Directory.
This is where our servers are and in case a new server is installed, I want it to be imported into NPM.
This works just fine.
But, I have twice so far had a device being imported that is not in the selected OUs, it's not even in AD.
One was a workgroup Windows computer, the other a network printer.
If I delete the imported node in NPM, then it just gets imported again the next time the network discovery runs.
This is the only scheduled network discovery that we have and we don't normally use manual network discovery either.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Is there a way to alert for VPN Tunnel up and down time? What is your recommended practice on this? SNMP OIDs?

Hey guys is there an option to expand all groups at once
I would like to be able to open all those folders by clicking a button and not actually going one by one
I know i can do "Remember Expanded Groups", but thats not really what i want
For some reason my Solarwinds is trying to reach out to IPs on a daily basis but is failing due to a block. The block is intentional for security purposes which keeps showing up in my security logs. Instead of consistently blocking Solarwinds from trying to reach out to these IPs, how do I just stop Solarwinds?
Good afternoon!
I'm seeing an issue with the dbm_Pollers_DeleteOrphans stored procedure. The second delete statement is failing because there is a group of sequential pollers in the Pollers table with NetObject set to N:None and another sequential group set to N: . As the procedure is trying to CAST(SUBSTRING(NetObject, 3, 10) AS int), it's failing each and every time. Anyone have any idea how a set of pollers could've been created with a NetObjectID of 0 and NetObject N:None? Are these safe to delete?
Stored Procedure Delete Query
DELETE FROM Pollers
WHERE (SUBSTRING(NetObject, 1, 1) = 'N')
AND (
CAST(SUBSTRING(NetObject, 3, 10) AS int) IN (SELECT NodeId FROM DeletedNodes)
OR
CAST(SUBSTRING(NetObject, 3, 10) AS int) NOT IN (SELECT NodeID FROM Nodes)
)
Query to Discover CAST errors
SELECT [PollerID]
,[PollerType]
,[NetObject]
,[NetObjectType]
,[NetObjectID]
,[Enabled]
FROM [MHNetPerfMon].[dbo].[Pollers]
WHERE SUBSTRING(NetObject, 1, 1) = 'N'
AND ISNUMERIC(SUBSTRING(NetObject, 3, 10)) = 0
Output of Discovery Query
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Dear Experts,
we are planning to procure Solarwinds solution for our proposed network( NPM,NTA,IPA,NCM),
We have a estimate of about 2000 Devices to be on boarded, And so we consider our's as a Large Environment ,
In detail,for NTA storage, we need 8 GB for every 1000 flow per second , And so we can calculate based on the estimate number of flows,
But for Orion Database Server, Do we have any similar calculation to justify/Calculate the sizing requirements.
How are you guys getting SNMP polling to work with NPM? I can only get the status only ICMP to work and then the UCS manager credentials works as well. In UCS under admin -> communication services -> communication services and the SNMP area I have admin state enabled. The port is default at 161 For the community/username I made a string and saved it. Then in SNMP traps I have the ip of my solarwinds server set the same community/username as above the port is 162 and version is v2c and type is traps.
In solarwinds I have SNMP version as v2c, SNMP port at 161 (I tried 162 as well) I have allow 64-bit counters checked. For Community string I entered the same string I had in ucs but when I hit test it fails. I then put the community string and the same string for read/write community string and it fails. I have no idea why its not working.
On my SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 (64-bit) system, under:
Disk Volumes, there's a value Shared memory that is set at 100%. I believe that value is /dev/shm/ and it has plenty of free memory.
Can somebody explain the definition of that value is?
Also, I know there are other threads about incorrect polling for memory utilization, such as this one:
But attempting to follow these instructions, I'm having some confusion:
The only part I see Pollers is in Management -> Pollers and there's also a Poll Now. But pressing Poll Now doesn't change the results.
Is there any way to alert for a NAT/PAT Pool exhaustion? aside from doing syslog?
Hi all,
I would like to reconfirm. i will do hotfix patching for orion main poller and backup HA.
but i was wondering. do i need to do hotfix installation for APE also. because during reading hotfix pages. there are no information telling either needed to be install inside APE also.
please help me.
thanks,
i have interface alerts turned but when it comes to interfaces that are connecting two nodes, i get two alerts. One for each nodes interface that goes down.
For example.
Node 1, interface gi1/1 is connected to Node 2 gi1/1
When there is a problem with the link that is shared between Node 1 and Node 2, I get two alerts. To make matters worse, I am using the ServiceNow integration feature so I also get two incident tickets open when its really only one event that took place.
Is there any way for an alert to know that the interfaces that are down are part of a common link?
Dependencies groups is out of the question here because i have over a thousand nodes and exponentially more interfaces. It would be great if i can somehow leverage the Layer 2 awareness that solarwinds has built in to make this possible.
Also, i really don't want to stop monitoring one side because then i will loose important interface stats.
Anyone solve this?
