Good day Thwack Community.
I am new to the forums, but have been reading and learning much from all the posts and answers provided here. I am currently interning with a network engineering department at a large organization, and have been tasked with helping them get the most out of their SolarWinds products and making some custom views for different departments.
What I currently am trying to do is monitor a Citrix Netscalar, In NPM I can see the overall status of the Netscalar, but what we would like to view is the status of all of the Services/pools on the Netscalar. I.e. if a pool member/server goes down we would like to see that, or Netscalar has problems passing traffic on a port. I have found the OID's/MIB's for the device, and When I try to create a new poller (From the webconsole, I don't have the Server access yet for the UnDP setup) I can get the response, but the response is a table of all the servernames, or status' and the Poller will only allow you to get one variable back, not a table of variables.
So my question is how can I monitor these Netscalars, and get the information in the node details of the netscalar, and also as alerts if a member goes down? Is it possible to receive multiple pieces of information in the SNMP poller on Solarwinds, and display that on the page?
I have read some about SNMP Traps aswell, but it seems that that specific function on receiving an SNMP Trap and then alerting or displaying it only resides in the Engineers Toolset module which we do not have. We have IPAM, NPM and NCM.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
