Re: Alert formatting
I'm still on 11.0.1 so I can't test this but have you tried using the HTML option?

Re: Tunnel Interface not "discovered" by NPM
1. Orion polls for the following OID's in order to get the information of the Interfaces available on the device.
IF-MIB:ifIndex .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1
IF-MIB::ifDescription .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.
IF-MIB::ifLastChange .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.9.
IF-MIB::ifOperStatus .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.
IF-MIB::ifType .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.
IF-MIB::ifAlias .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18.
IF-MIB::ifAdminStatus .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7.
2 Run the MIB Walk Tool below to verify the Tunnel Interface is actually
been presented by the Node .
Are you able to see the Tunnel Interface listed ? You can also send the MIB Walk result here for that area .
3. In order to see an Interface to show up in the "List Resources" , the above OID's are used and also the Interface needs to have an "ifIndex" only then the Interface will be showed up on the list resources.
4. So in summary if the device does not have the OID's for your virtual interfaces, and therefore they are not showing up in the list resource process.
Also you can veriry the Interfaces through the OID to create a Universal Device Poller .
Start > All programs > SolarWinds Orion > Network Performance Monitor > Unviersal Device Poller >
New Universal Device Poller
Follow the Scren shot to verify the Interface is been presented by the Node.

Re: Migrating and upgrading NPM
Thanks. One other question, would it be better to swap hostnames/IP before or after I install/configure Solarwinds on the new server?

Re: Alerting Rules
HI Scott
I think you should be settings the alert up like this, even though they are in a group you want to alert on a node in the group if you have a custom property the all belong to with in the group all the better like below where ive selected the building.
The actual trigger condition will be where you then define the alert. IE volumes is greater than or equal to 80

Re: Alerting Rules
Oh by the way if you dont have a custom property set, then you can add each node with 'Only the following set of objects'

Re: Issues after Upgrade to NPM 11.5.2
I've had the same advice and pushed back on it.
I think shrinking the database is a really bad idea that comes from support staff parroting what they have seen in other tickets. If your queries are not making uses of indexes because they are badly written then they will still read all of the data after the shrink because they are still badly written.
Perhaps sqlrockstar could weigh in on why it's important for us to shrink our databases?

Re: Filter Interface query
IT should show as a custom property to use so you can filter using the SQL Query box when you click edit for the 'Display All Interfaces' Module or whatever report you have created.
TopXXInterby_Util = 'Yes'
Try something like this.
((mapview = 'summit' and (InterfaceName like 'Serial%' or InterfaceName like 'Gigabit%' or InterfaceName like 'ppp%')) AND TopXXInterby_Util = 'Yes')

Virtualization Summary has unknown device (ghost device)
Not sure what this is but if I click and tell NPM to manage it I get an add node view but with no ip or dns info. When I try to edit the device it comes back with an error. Just saw this today while adding ESX hosts via the vCenters. Any ideas? I get the feeling its possible data left over in the db but since its a prod system I can't touch it during the day.
I also noticed this Hosts with problems iframe error.
and if I click on the view details I get this error.

Re: Virtualization Summary has unknown device (ghost device)
Thanks for the suggestion cjfranca, I may give that a shot. I was hopeful it was a simple fix that would not require a change control and all that jazz. I may hold off until after holiday
I am going to see if the nightly db maintenance cleans it up maybe. I will post update tomorrow.

Re: Can you cancel a discovery but keep the discovered devices?
After you cancel and you're back at the "Network Sonar Discovery" page, there are 3 tabs. "Network Sonar Discovery", "Scheduled Discovery Results" and "Discovery Ignore List".
Go to the "Scheduled Discovery Results" and see if your discovered nodes are there. If they are, you can add them from there. Just select the nodes you want and hit "Import Nodes".
If they aren't there, then you can't get them.

Re: Need small help for a trigger condition on node down
I think your logic is wrong. I'm assuming "Node" "State" is your custom property you're referring to that tells you if its a server or not? If so, your saying that any one of the properties in the bottom part of your condition must not be satisfied, so even if "Node" "State" is "Server", any one of the other conditions can be false and that would make the second part of your condition still true, regardless of whether or not its a server. You can change it to "All child conditions must not be satisfied", but that's probably not what you want either.
Guessing you'll need to add another block and do the "Server" part separately...
So I'm curious, Orion has a Built-in property called "IsServer" that is set to true if its a server. Why not use that?

NOC issues
Hi
I have recently done a network scan with NTM (it is AWESOME, buy it!) to enable me to map out the network.
Having done all this, created the maps and transferred and tidied within Network Atlas I now have a NOC with 5 tabs showing various parts of our network.
The problem is, it cycles round the tabs 2 or 3 times then sticks unable to load the resource. I have clicked to show a cached version of the map whilst it loads but to no avail.
As it stands I am having to remain connected to the PC streaming the NOC to refresh the browser each time it hangs.
Any ideas?

Re: Cable Modem Alerting using NPM
Are you the cable internet provider? If not, do you have the SNMP creds to the cable modems? You can certainly get more information from a cable modem with SNMP, such as SNR performance and throughput.

Re: Changing interface bandwidth for slower WAN connection
The best way to handle monitoring of a sub-rate (<100 mb/s) circuit through a Cisco device is to use the "bandwidth xxxx" command on the interface that is sub-rated. For example, on interface 23, i would issue: "config t, interface 0/23, bandwidth 27648, end". This sets the bandwidth on the interface to 27 mb/s, in kilobits, and thus enables percentage-based alerts. We've been doing it this way for 9+ years.

Re: Need small help for a trigger condition on node down
Hi Craig,
Thats what i was thinking. I can use "All child conditions must not be satisfied". This should give me alerts only for nodes which are not servers.
The other condition for Server is already working where i have custom property tagged for all servers.
Yes i did read somewhere about this property but it was not working in some version and a hotfix was developed.
