Everyone, I don't know enough about the Cisco FTD.
Please I need help.
Can you backup the configuration on the FTD? (through NCM)?
I am currently using a UnDP for this. Thanks to ecklerwr1!
Any suggestion would be appreciated!
Thanks much,
Cheryl

Monitor Site to make sure it is up
So I need to go a bit beyond the basics of setting up an external site and monitoring an IP address to make sure it is up. I was going to use the SAM App-insights for IIS template to monitor the site and IIS on the node that I use on a few of my other nodes but this won't work on this server because it is running Tomcat IIS on a Windows box.
What I have is an HTTPS site that I need to check that its up but need to go beyond just a ping. I also have a login to the site so I can check to see if its up and available to login to. I was thinking I could maybe use an HTTPS monitor and configure the site to with a login? I have to do some more digging into this but wanted to see if anyone here has set this up before. Thanks! - Dave

Confused about inconsistent SQL Filters
I've recently been working on some dashboards, and some of the easy requests turn out to be much harder than I thought.
For example, customer wants a list of all volumes listed by server. I tried the Top Volumes and while that gives the volumes, it doesn't sort things well. A server can be listed multiple times because the Resource wants to sort by the space used per volume. I use a filter like this:
Nodes.Caption like 'ServerName%' and Volumes.Caption not Like '%C:\*%' and Volumes.Caption not Like '%memory%'
Then I try the "All Volumes" Resource, figure this is perfect. Except I cannot get the SQL Filter to work. Many of the examples fail. Trying to filter on the Nodes.Caption seems to be the issue.
So does anyone have an idea of what would work? And why is the syntax different?

When you installed NPM, did you add Nodes manually or did you run discovery?

Missing video on Upgrade Guide for NPM?
Trying to view the video on the following link (under the line "The following video (8:01) can help with migrations for Orion Platform 2016.1 and earlier.")
I get a broken link... and tried grabbing the source of the video but got errors from "vidyard" that the video was removed.
Is this the same for everyone? or just me?

CPU Load count matrix (sql)
A good way to look at the CPU Load for "spikiness" is my making a simple heat map of the utilization - to count the number of times the CPULoad hits 0-10%, 10-20%, etc. over a period of time.
DECLARE @StartDate Datetime
DECLARE @EndDate Datetime
-- Last month
--SET @StartDate=DATEADD(month, DATEDIFF(month, -1, getdate()) - 2, 0)
--SET @EndDate=DATEADD(ss, -1, DATEADD(month, DATEDIFF(month, 0, getdate()), 0))
--Last n Weeks
--SET @StartDate=dateadd(dd, @weekDayStart-2, dateadd(wk, datediff(wk, 0, getdate()) - @numWeeks, 0))
--SET @EndDate=dateadd(ss, -1, dateadd(wk, datediff(wk, 0, getdate()), 0)-1)
-- Last Week
SET @StartDate=dateadd(dd, -1, dateadd(wk, datediff(wk, 0, getdate()) - 1, 0))
SET @EndDate=dateadd(ss, -1, dateadd(wk, datediff(wk, 0, getdate()), 0)-1)

Netpath
We recently upgraded to 12.2 with netpath 1.1.2, prior to the update the netpath feature worked fine. Now it shows:
Unknown connection: Connection may consist of multiple nodes
I have spoken to 5 engineers at Solarswinds. They tried uninstalling netpath, agent, pcap. The ports are open on the firewall. I am hoping that someone else has experienced this and got it to work.

Real Time Monitoring of the Nodes and Interface.
Hi,
I am working in the airline head-quarter which have multiple airport all around and which are being monitored by Solarwinds. Since the polling interval of Nodes/Interface (60 Sec) which bring lots of escalation in environment because of slow polling of the interface. we need the real time monitoring.
Please let me know how can we monitor interface and nodes in real time.

Netpath error "No data found"
We have been using Netpath since it came out, and it has worked very well for us until recently. Two weeks ago, we had our normal Windows patching weekend. A couple of days later, I discoverd that all of our Netpath probes were no longer displaying in NPM. All of them have the following error:
No Data Found
Netpath has no data about this time interval. If this happens often, consider increasing the probing interval by 5 or 10 minutes.
We have almost 20 Netpath servers that stopped working. I have reinstalled the agent on one of our Netpath servers. I also rebooted our main poller and it started to display Netpath data, but it stopped eventually. Today I rebooted it and the amount of time displayed was even shorter before all of them stopped showing data in NPM.
I do have a case open on this, but that almost two weeks ago so I'm looking to see if anyone else has any recommendations.

Netpath through an A10 Load Balancer
Dear All,
We are trying to monitor a service path that contains A10 device in between. Can anybody explain as to what should be the expected behavior and outcome in this case?
The actual physical topology is -
After 10.1.1.22 (Juniper Core switch), we actually have a switch 172.30.13.1 and then the Load Balancer 172.18.20.151. The Virtual IP of the Service is 172.30.13.233 that sits on the Load Balancer to redirect traffic to a Real IP on service 443 that has been configured for the NetPath.
NetPath Service has been created on the Virtual IP with service as 443.
The topology depiction shown by NetPath is incorrect.
cobrien request your asistance in the matter... What should be expected from a NetPath in a Load Balanced environment, in special consideration to A10 devices?

Service-now integration and ticket creation errors
Hi,
My client have been a solarwinds-user for about 6 months, and just recently we've started seeing a behaviour which I cannot understand.
So, you have one device/node that goes offline. Solarwinds creates the information shown in the dashboard and creates a ticket into service-now. From here all is fine and dandy.
When the node then goes up again, solarwinds registers this as online once again. So, we're back to normal now with all nodes online. Here the ticket in service-now are closed.
Fast forward 6 months and the node goes down again! Now solarwinds sends the alert to THE SAME ORIGNAL INCIDENT created 6 mothns ago. It doesn't create a new, it re-uses the old ticket that was created 6 months ago.
This is a major problem since the case is not reopened. Its still in closed state.
In this scenario I would like to see a new incident, rather than using an old that have already been resolved.
I've talked to the support about this, and they claim this is "expected behaviour".
Am I doing something wrong here? If the products is designed this way, and there's no way around it. We need to look for alternatives.
Help me thwack community.
You're my only hope.

Also with be good to include the average percent utilization and peak utilization and percentage format.

Palo Alto firewalls only showing the Management IP
My environment is http://www.solarwinds.com/Orion Platform 2016.1.5200, IPAM 4.3.1, NCM 7.5, IVIM 2.1.2, QoE 2.1.0, Toolset 11.0.1, NetPath 1.0, NPM 12.0, NTA 4.2.0, UDT 3.2.3
So I have the PA firewalls in my NPM and NCM environments just fine.
To do this I had to use the PA management interface to add it.
However, NPM is not showing the other IPs fo rthe other interfaces like my internal, external nor DMZ. So when I go to Net Path Services and I see my FW Internal and External IPs in the path it does not know that those are my FW and get the proper interface information.
My question is - is there anyway to fix this?
I know I can add a custom property to the interfaces and show the IPs but that does not integrate with the reset of the Solarwinds servers / products I have for dynamic linking.
Thank you,
Bruce Jarrett

Command output result has to be e-mailed like an alert
Hi,
We have a requirement from customer something like
In cases, instead of going with an SNMP monitoring or a log converted to an alert which involves little research research and testing, so we would like to see a command output result and the output of that command has to be e-mailed to like an alert.
For instance:
XXXX-XXXX-XXX-01#show switch
Switch/Stack Mac Address : XXxxxXX.XXXX - Local Mac Address
Mac persistency wait time: Indefinite
H/W Current
Switch# Role Mac Address Priority Version State
------------------------------------------------------------
*1 Active XxXx.XxXx.XxXx 15 V07 Ready
2 Standby XxXx.XxXx.XxXx 13 V07 Ready
3 Member XxXx.XxXx.XxXx 11 V07 Ready
4 Member XxXx.XxXx.XxXx 10 V07 Ready
5 Member XxXx.XxXx.XxXx 1 V07 Ready
Is this possible within Solarwinds, please help us how to configure this if so..
Thanks in Advance.

How to Add Parent Status in Alert Message
I want to be able to put the status of a parent in a dependency when the child goes down. For example, we have a GPS devices that the group in charge of them needs to know when they go down. However, they don't know if they're down because of a unit failure or the connection to them is down. So, I would like to create a dependency with the switch as a parent, and GPS as a child. When the GPS goes down for whatever reason, the GPS techs can easily see that the switch it is connected to is up or down, so they'll know if they need to start troubleshooting the GPS, or just wait for the connection to come back up.
I would think this can be down inside the HTML message of the alert, but I do not understand the message variables well enough to know how to make this work.
Thanks,
Ken Barnes
