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

We would like to improve user experience and for such reason I'd like to better understand if our users prefers INITIALLY to add nodes manually or run product network discovery in order to import devices to NPM

Finding Duplicate IP Addresses from Active Diagnostics

$
0
0

Active Diagnostics reported a bunch of duplicate IP addresses in the topology tracking. I wanted to find out which devices are showing layer 3 links to the same destinations and thought some of you would find the queries useful. I explicitly excluded 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1 because I expect duplicates of these addresses for multiple routes outside and all the loopback interfaces.

 

This query finds node names that have duplicate next hop addresses:

SELECT Caption, NextHopAddress FROM NodesData

INNER JOIN NodeL3RoutingData ON NodesData.NodeID = NodeL3RoutingData.NodeID

WHERE NodeL3RoutingData.NextHopAddress IN (SELECT NextHopAddress

FROM NodeL3RoutingData

GROUP BY NextHopAddress

HAVING COUNT (*) > 1) AND NextHopAddress NOT IN ('0.0.0.0', '127.0.0.1')

 

And this query finds node names that have duplicate route destination addresses:

SELECT Caption, RouteDestination FROM NodesData

INNER JOIN NodeL3RoutingData ON NodesData.NodeID = NodeL3RoutingData.NodeID

WHERE NodeL3RoutingData.RouteDestination IN (SELECT RouteDestination

FROM NodeL3RoutingData

GROUP BY RouteDestination

HAVING COUNT (*) > 1) AND RouteDestination NOT IN ('0.0.0.0', '127.0.0.1')

Cisco ASA as a Default gateway?

$
0
0

There has been over 1 million of Cisco ASAs built and deployed around the world in a past years (good job Cisco!). As not supporting SNMP protocol properly, they often complicate our lives when configured to be Default gateways, not allowing products like SolarWinds User Device Tracker to monitor what's behind. Do you use your ASAs as a Default gateways too? If so, what percentage of your network they route?

Does anyone have any templates for Forti ADC? I'm unsuccessfully trying to get values returned for CPU.

 

## FortiADC OIDs ##

my $oid_fad_mem           = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.112.1.5.0";        # Location of Memory for FortiADC (%)

my $oid_fad_ldisk         = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.112.1.6.0";        # Location of Log Disk Usage for FortiADC (%)

my $oid_fad_load          = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.112.1.30.0";       # Location of Load used for FortiADC (%)

#  my $oid_fad_load       = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.112.1.40.0";         # "SNMP No Such Object"

my $oid_fad_cpu    = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.112.1.4.0";                # Location of CPU for FortiADC (%)

Sending Config Saves to a different server

$

Hi,

 

 

Is there a way to save configs from Configuration Manager to more than just the Solarwinds DB?

 

From a Configuration Management Job could I send the files to several locations at the sometime?

 

We are looking to automate a process where the configs can be saved to two geographic locations so, if one location were to be wiped off the face of the earth, we would have our configs at the other location.

 

 

Thank you, Pat

ConnectNow Feature @ Atlas, Links between Juniper Devices not getting discovered.

$

Hello everyone,

 

Recentley i been working a lot with Juniper devices and it looks like there is an issue with the Topology data polling from Juniper Devices.

 

I've got few Juniper EX series discovered with the Network Discovery tool within NPM, i did a little research and i found out that somtimes Topology data shown for those devices, but even then, it showing incorrect data, i ran a simulation of the production environment at my lab :

Took the same model devices running on the production and tried to discover their Topology data with few different OS versions, the result always been the same, somtimes Topology data shown but incorrect and somtimes not shown at all.

 

I was trying to run SNMP walk to see if the required OIDs from the bellow kb is shown ( Object IDs and information Orion Platform poll for NTM - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support  )

However, there is many OIDs missing when i did the walk.

 

As well, i was trying to see if anyone else had similar issue here at TWHACK but i couldn't find any.

 

Did anyone ever had such issue or if there is any work around to get those devices to work with Connectnow ?

 

Thank you guys


Switch Stack Poller not Recognising Our Stacks

$

0

We've got 3 switch stacks using Catalyst 6800's but the Switch Stack Poller doesn't recognise them as being stacks, it does however see another switch which isn't in a stack as an exact match. They are monitoring general hardware and flow info fine but doesn't see it as a stack. The reason I'm looking into this is that one of the members failed the other day and solarwinds just carried on as if there was nothing wrong so I've been tasked with getting some kind of monitoring for the members. I've run a full SNMPwalk and get 1.3 million rows returned but don't see much of great value jump out at me. Any tips appreciated.

We are monitoring gre tunnels between our core Juniper SRX Junos firewall and ISP, problem is that -even if the router on the other end is down, tunnel still shows green and up.describe more detail when see the interface status… its always up … but when we go in deep and show interface detail ..its show Gre keepalives adjacency state which show the real status i.e. Down or Up,  Screen shot attached of NMS and the configuration for your ready reference.

 

 

Please guide further.

APC Power Control Unit

So I have a number of APC UPS 1500s, 3000s, and 8000s across my sites. It seems like the Power Control Unit status will only return results on 3k's or higher. I can poll successfully the same information using MIBs but curious if anyone has seen similar behavior?  The APC management cards are all 9630s with some 9631s mixed in.

 

 

Need dynamic interface chart on the Node Details view - which resource?

I want to place a chart on the node details view that shows historical traffic information for specific interfaces on that node. Some questions: What resource would I use? How would I auto-select the appropriate interfaces on the node being viewed? Would I use a Yes/Mo custom property to flag the interfaces on each node that should appear on the chart?

 

Thanks for any help.

How to create a report

Hi there, i am new to thwack and to Solarwinds. I am trying to create a report on Solarwinds to interrogate my vSphere environment on what servers are in each resource pool. Is this possible? And if so is it easy to create. I don't have much experience with it so when I took a look at creating a report i was dumbfounded by all the options.

 

I hope someone can help me if possible.

 

Kind regards

Nexus 5k missing interfaces (list resources)

$
0
0

Hi There

 

Ive had this issue for some time with NPM on our Nexus 5k's (C5672up). NPM will not list/detect all of the interfaces/resources so i cannot monitor them. It only seems to detect fibre channel interfaces? ive tried smnpv1,v2 and snmp3, created pollers, upgraded NPM to 12.3 Nexus is running NX-OS 7.3. Ive also tried different MIBS nothing makes any difference!

deleting the device and adding it back to NPM also makes no difference.

This used to work great but at some point it has stopped!. Its seems like its using the wrong OID (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.12.3.1.3.1410) can anyone confirm this?

 

Hopefully someone has had a similar issue or can provide some useful input as ive run out ideas.

Unable to read Orion Platform 2018.2 HF 6 Release Notes

$

We are upgrading an environment today and Core Platform HF 6 looks like it has been released as the online installer would like to install it.

 

When we click on the release notes it points us to:

https://support.solarwinds.com/Success_Center/Orion_Platform/Orion_Documentation/Orion_Platform_2018-2_Hotfix_6

which is behind a login wall.

 

 

Looking at this URL there is no mention of HF 6 yet.

https://support.solarwinds.com/Success_Center/Orion_Platform/Orion_Documentation/Additional_Resources/Orion_hotfix_release_notes

 

We can not upgrade without having all the necessary information in the hotfixes for change control. Can we correct the process to have the hotfix release notes published before or at the time of release of the bits to the online installer?
