Re: Cisco Switches, Fan Monitoring, Universal Device Polling, OIDs...Step by step for me the New Guy.

If you do need to create a Universal Device Poller (UnDP) for additional stats not covered by the native Hardware Health monitoring, try watching these two videos to get you started.

 

You will still need to determine the correct OIDs for what you want to poll but the steps above are generally the same


Re: Is it possible to programmatically create custom components in SolarWinds APM?

Thank you.
Is there a way to do similar operation within existing limitations?

Is it possible, for example, to generate a template file, then install and apply it?

We haven't noticed any issues with the Primary Poller but we are going to reinstall the software either way, once we have a stable version of NPM that doesn't require hotfixes. Hoping that is sooner than later.

Do all the nodes have the same text in them that identifies them?  If so you would use

 

Node Name contains %xxxx%

 

The % is the equivalent of a wildcard for SQL.

It doesn't seem like I got any alerts.  Is there any way to only look at one F5 device with a specific name? Actually, is it even possible since the top part is already written for you and you can't add a node name/id field into the query?

Powershell script to monitor azure

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I'm trying to monitor some windows azure components using powershell,

The script is running locally on the SAM server. If I execute it in powershell shell it works.

 

Here is the script :

Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile "C:\Scripts\Folder\SolarWinds.publishsettings"  | Out-Null


$subscriptionName = "blabla"

$CloudServiceName = "blabla"

$RoleName = "blabla"

$numberOfMinute = 3

$InstanceName = "blabla"

$Slot = "blabla"

 

Select-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionName $subscriptionName  | Out-Null

 

Get-AzureRole -ServiceName $CloudServiceName -Slot $Slot -RoleName $RoleName -InstanceDetails | Where-Object {$_.InstanceName -eq $InstanceName} | Format-Table –Auto  InstanceName, InstanceStatus

 

The problem is when invoking this script in solarwinds i'm getting the following error :

 

Errors: ==============================================

Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile : The term 'Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

At line:2 char:1

+ Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile "C:\Scripts\Fodler\Sola ...

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile:String) [], CommandNotFoundException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

 

Since it cannot import the publish settings it cannot run.

 

The publish setting file is located on the SAM server.

 

Any ideas ?

I don't know if this pertians, but I have applied a template to all windows monitors, it has "% Registry Quota In Use" within it. For nearly all of the servers it is successful, but for some I get "Network connection failed. HResult: No Data to return. Error: Unable to connect to the specific computer, or the computer is offline." The other template that is applied to them functions and I know 70 some aren't offline. Any suggestions?

Interesting... I didn't get any alerts with that query.  When I run it in SQL manager, I get 4 pools that are down, but am not getting any alert emails about them.  Any ideas?


Export to PDF issues

$

We have been trying to get reports to work when you use the Export to PDF function. The icon images are not displaying properly.

 

Capture1 is what the report looks like when we use the Export to PDF function.

 

Capture is what happens when we use Print and print to a PDF. This is ideally what we would want the Export to PDF function to look like.

 

I have submitted a ticket to try and get the issue resolved but I wanted to see if the community had any possible solutions. I have tried IE, Chrome and Mozilla. I am running NPM 11, NTA 4.1 RC.

 

Is anyone else having this issue? Has anyone found a solution?

 

The solution was to disable IIS Bindings. We are looking into changing configuration files to allow IIS Bindings and get full function from it. Thanks for the help everyone.

I am having the same issue I do know that CIENA 4200 has it's own MIBs. I am trying to get hold of the MIBs to see if they can be imported and I can write my own polers. If you or anyone has access to the 4200 Downloads from Ciena they just have to submit the MIB's to Solarwinds to have them put into their Database.

Adding WMI node to Orion server

$

Hello,

 

I used the sample script (CRUD.AddWMINode.ps1 with some editing to fix the hyphens in the script) from the Orion SDK v1.9 to add the WMI node to the Orion server.

 

Everything else works fine, but the WMI credential was not added. I like to know when a new version of the Orion SDK will be available so that I can try again to see whether I can add the WMI credential during adding the node.

 

Thank you in advance.

IOS Version doesn't show up

We've got everything set up and SNMP is polling and pulling information from each switch correctly...except the IOS Version and the Operating System.  We are managing all Cisco switches and I thought it'd be fairly simple to get it going, but no luck.

 

The Description appears, and it shows that information that I would expect to be in the "IOS Version" block, but it's just blank.  I've tried running a report (comes back empty) and I've tried rediscovering and still no luck.

 

Thanks

dbladorn,

 

   That's what I don't get... my original screenshot shows the global defaults.

 

All of my profiles are set to use the Global Settings:

 

 

Scheduler Profiles do not have a LOG entry, so there's nothing to set there.

Could you clarify what you mean by "the WMI credential was not added"? What did you observe and what did you expect?

Performance counter unknown status

$

While adding a template that contains "% Registry Quota In Use" to all Windows servers about 60 or so of them have displayed an unknown status with the Error "Network connection failed. HResult: No data to return. Error: Unable to connect to the specified computer, or the computer is offline." We have another template that monitors some services on all Windows servers so I know there arn't problems with being down and WMI can at least monitor services.  Most of these are 2008 R2 but a few aren't. That is the most of the population of our infrastructure so this may be the reason that they are so high. There was a trouble shooting guide of services that showed up like this and WMI corruptions that worked on a hand full of my problems before, but I know not of one for this nor the reason why this is happening. 60 out of around 1700 servers are showing this unknown status with the above message. Please help me.


Uploading properties via csv

I have exported the properties in a csv file and added a test server with no properties to SAM. I import the file with the data below and I keep getting wrong format. I eleminate the last comma and I still get the same message. I really am lost here. The example is just an example and the guides that I have found are useful, but don't explain the whole thing.

Help me please!

Unfortunately not! This issue has moved to the back of my priority queue. I'll let you know if I've found a way to do it. I think we were considering using a third party SCP server

Another setting that could affect this behavior is platform (change it from default x86 to x64) under advanced settings on application edit page.

Juniper SRX Map

We have a map showing the VPN connections but when the primary node fails all the interfaces become unknown even though the node itself fails over correctly. Looking at the map builder it appears each interfaces are given a different identifier/OID on each node. Any ideas?
