More Native Config Change Templates

The idea is to take a few config change templates from thwack, test them and make them native in NCM.


FEATURE REQUEST - Backing-up .UCS files from F5 LTM

is there a way to back-up the .ucs archive files from F5 loadbalancers ? the templates to backup the configuration file is good but doesn't serve the purpose in case one has to build a F5 box from scratch.

 

I have logged a feature request for this with the case#  380211

Help Troubleshooting failed backups

$

I'm having a hard time figuring out why backups fail to certain devices.   I'm looking for guidance on where I can look within solarwinds (NPM 10.6, NCM 7.2) to find additional logging and or info as to why my config backups fail to certain devices.  Thus far my troubleshooting steps are:

 

Navigate to the Cisco device node in NCM.  Edit the node, then click on test button.  Test is successful.  I then go back into the node details and click on the Download button to start a backup of the specific node that failed in the scheduled job.  Sure enough, the download button works and my config gets downloaded.  So why does it work if I do it manually but fails if I run it within a job?   The only output I get from job details is either 1) Timeout connecting to device, or 2) Connection refused.  (The connection refused message is not possible as I can ssh to the device just fine from the remote poller using putty).  So beyond my troubleshooting steps where else can I look within Solarwinds that would help me figure out why devices are timing out and or reporting connection refused?

 

Thanks for any help here.

 

We are running Solarwinds remote pollers for reference. 

Custom Properties for Groups

Couldn't see a request for this yet....Having custom properties for groups would be great.

Cisco WS-C4507R+E only shows Fan Status under Current H/W Health

As stated above. Wonder if this is a bug or is it just me. Shouldn't there be more sensors, given that SMEs would usually deploy it as a critical switch. Even a WS-C2960 has 2 sensors, a fan and a power supply. Am I missing something here?

VNQM and VOIP PRI gateways - working with cisco 3925?

$
0
0

Hi all,
I've recently updated to NVQM 4.1 and added all my PRI gateways into it.  PRI support looks very nice (good job guys!) - however I've found that all my Cisco 3925 gateways don't seem to show any calls at all on the E1/T1 interfaces.  They show up fine to be monitored just fine however just show 0 calls all the time.

eg

pri.JPG

All my other gateways using 2811 and 3825 work fine.  I guess the IOS train is slightly different on this model so maybe it's not being picked up correctly by solarwinds?  Has anyone else seen this? 

 

Thanks
Sean


Group Custom Properties

$
0
0

I have over 75 Custom Node Properties I use in my environment.  Most are just informational providing contact information, data center location, rack location, assigned engineer, etc. but much of this information is repeated for all nodes belonging to a particular customer, for example.  It means having to cut and paste the same values to each node one field at a time.  This ends up chewing up a whole lot of time.

 

A solution might be to have Group Custom Properties, Categorized Groups and a detail View for displaying related Group Custom Properties for Groups that fill into a certain category.  You could then create a Group in the category "Customer" for example which would have the common Custom Properties for all the customer's nodes.  You would, of course, add all the customer's nodes and possibly even the related Application Monitors to the group.  Then on the node or Application Monitor Details screen you would add a View for displaying a Group Categories Custom Properties, edit the View and choose the Group Category to use.

 

By designing it similar to the above, you could add a new customer and as long as you use the same Group Category to provide the Group Custom Property values, the webpage should just automatically display the Group Customer properties associated.

 

For this truly be a good design however, you really need to have a key field between the Node Custom Properties and this Group Custom Properties in order to tie them together and avoid duplicate Groups in the same Group Category using the same key.  Otherwise you would run into problems with the View being confused about which Groups Custom Properties to use.

 

Anyway,  wanted to throw out some thoughts on how this might work better for me and see if others have ideas for a solution.  Mine may not be completely honed but maybe it will help to get the creative juices flowing.

cisco device connected to other vendor

Looks like the application failed to find connectivity when a device that supports CDP or LLDP is connected to a device that does not support any of these protocols.

I suspect that the reason is that if one device support CDP then it expect that all attached device will support CDP as well.

However this is not the situation and there are lots of other devices connected to Cisco devices (Juniper, F5, checkpoint..)

So there should be an option to force bridge table based mapping for such connections

For this month's mission you're going to need to fine tune your deductive reasoning skills.  Do not underrate your own abilities.  Propel yourself on this errand and apply only the obvious conclusions that befit a person of  your wisdom and skills of observation.  Now don't waste any time my dears... The game is afoot!

 

November's Mission

Get ready to Solve The Case of The Stolen Data!  We will release 5 clues for you to solve each week.  The clues will focus on SolarWinds security products (Serv-U, Patch Manager, Log & Event Manager, and Firewall Security Manager).  Correctly answer all 15 clues and you'll be entered to win a Remote Flying Drone! And if you were thinking we're going to leave you hanging without the latest Android OS to fly this crazy thing, you'd be wrong.  The winner will also walk away with a Google Nexus 7 which can be used to remotely fly the drone.  We're also throwing in a BONUS week which, when completed, will better your chances at winning.  Make sure to carefully read through the mission rules below.  Oh, and there is a crossword to help you along the way.  Download the printable crossword from the bottom of this blog and fill out your answers as you move along.  We will reveal the answers once the mission has closed.

 

Mission Rules

  1. Each week will open on Mondays at 12am CST and remain open until the mission closes on November 30.  Check the schedule below for exact open/close times.
  2. 750 points are being awarded for each successfully completed week of clues.  There are 3 weeks + the bonus week which means you can earn a maximum of 3,000 points for this mission.
  3. You must correctly answer Clue 1 before you can move on to Clue 2 and so forth.  This means the points for each week are all or nothing.  You are allowed to guess an unlimited amount of times for each clue, but you will only move on to the next clue once the correct word has been entered.  I've tried to accommodate several variations of each answer so capitalization and other minor details should not be a problem.  Please contact me if you feel you have the right answer but are having trouble moving forward.
  4. Those who successfully complete all 3 weeks of clues will be entered into the drawing for our grand prize.  If you complete the bonus week, you will earn 1 extra entry to the drawing, thus bettering your chances at winning.

Good luck!

The death of SNMP

$

As we all know, there’s a lot of change going on in the IT industry.  New technologies are claiming they’ll completely displace technologies and tools we’ve all used for years.  Some of it is a natural progression. There are always new pieces of technology that supplement our current toolset.  However lately, I’ve heard a lot of talk about the death of SNMP.  While I can’t say that I agree with the theory, it’s an interesting topic to throw out for discussion. 

 

Most of the custom linux scripting tools I use rely on SNMP polling.  The traps we receive in our alert management console provide updates on current failures and alerts.  While I can see SNMP being supplemented, I can’t see it just going away.  Is there anyone out there that does?  If so, what do you think will replace it?  How soon will it happen?  What do you guys think?

中国最古の文字の彫刻、殷の甲骨文が、週の金文、秦の刻石など、凡そ金銅玉などの素材に彫刻の通称「金石文字」。つまり「金石璽印を含む」に。印鑑ケースの起源や商代、或いは殷代、今なおまだ定説。遺品と歴史の記録によると、少なくとも、春秋戦国時代すでに現れて、戦国時代にすでに普遍的に使われて。最初はただ商業上の交流として商品の証。秦の始皇帝は中国統一後、印鑑証明の拡大を有権者の権益を法物、有権者として国民のツールを身につけ、統制。 http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/cikk/戦国時代、主張合従の名相蘇秦六カ国の印をつけていたこと。近年来、出土した文物は印鑑を前に進めた数百年の歴史。つまり、印鑑周朝时である。 伝家の古代璽印、多数から古城廃墟、川や古墳で。あるのは戦争に敗れた者亡命れ、戦争で殉職者遺棄戦場で、当時のエンジン恒例、凡そ戦場で射止めた印鑑販売に渡してなければならない、官吏遷職、死んだ後も須解印綬を提出する。他の多くのようにさえ名前の官職や、吉语印、肖形印など一般は副葬の物ではなく、実品。その他の戦国時代の陶器と標準升にや、少し諸侯の国の金货においても、ハンコを被せ名称と記録に製造職人の名前や印鑑性質の記号も、殘される。 古玺は戦国時代の激安印鑑の通称。今、私たちが見ることができるのは普通の最古の印章の多くは戦国古玺。これらの文字古玺多く、今私達はまだ知らない。陽文古玺ほとんど宽边添え。印文など画数が細いから無事、鋳造造。白文古璽ほとんどプラス边栏、または中間加縦界格、文字が鑿鋳造。官玺の印文の内容が「司馬」、「司徒」等の名称のほか、さまざまな不規則な形、内容は吉语と刻んで生き生きとした物の図案。陽文古玺ほとんどプラス边栏、または中間加縦界格、文字が鑿鋳造。官玺の実印激安の内容が「司馬」、「司徒」等の名称のほか、さまざまな不規則な形、内容は吉语と刻んで生き生きとした物の図案。

Auto pull subnets from route table

$

In a large environment like mine, we add subnets, or break up subnets on a daily basis.  I would like to see IPAM read the route table from a list of routers and pull the smallest subnets and auto populate them into IPAM.  Due to summarization, it will need to pull from a list of routers, maybe every night, and populate the DB with the highest bits  (24bit, etc.)

 

This is the number one complaint I hear from my design team.  They have to manually type all this in.

 

Another way to do this may be pulling the interface IP's or subnets.  Then you can also pull the description off the vlan/interface.  That would be real nice....
