Can you apply a Rule Engine to existing devices
Hi I have created a few rules using the Rule Engine, and it works nicely for new devices. For example I have created a new rule that adds a bunch of Windows service monitors to some of our servers. Now I would like to add those services to some of the existing devices. In stead of using the Quick Configuration Wizard to add the services one by one it would be nice to just apply the rule to my existing devices. Is that possible (Without deleting and readding the devices)?

Extra accounts in 9200?
Hi everyone, I recently upgraded my OpManager to the new 9.2 service pack that was released. While looking around at some of the features, I noticed that under the User Manager, we suddenly have three extra accounts that were created named "nadmin," "sadmin," and "vadmin." I assume the names are referencing different types of monitored equipment (network admin, system admin, and virtual admin, respectively), however this is not something that was set up by either me or my sysadmin - currently the

OpManager Error 12029
Hi, We are using Opmanager to monitor WAN activity in real-time, and for that we set up a monitor in the communications department. The thing is, that after a while, Opmanager will start showing this error message: 12029: Unknown We have to clear that error window in order to keep seeing the real-time graphs, but since the browser is opened on a dedicated computer, directly connected to the monitor, this is not acceptable. Any ideas why this error happens? and more importantly how to fix
Printer Notifaction Question
We are doing an eval of OpManager and ran into this issue. We imported about 140 networked printers and we were going to setup a notification profile for them by using the wizard so we could do them all at the same time but it seems that option to trigger the notification "when any [selected] Print Monitor is down" is not available when trying to apply to multiple printers at once. It is available if you go into each printer and setup the notification there. Is this normal or a bug that can
Hyper-V Device Templates not working as expected
OpManager v9200 I have a 2008R2 Hyper-V Host with 8 Hyper-V VM's and when I add them to OpManager they get classified as 'virtual' devices but the VM's default to the VMWare Virtual Machine Device Template and the Hyper-V host gets both the Hyper-V Host Device Template AND the VMWare Host Device Template. When I try to apply the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Device Template there are no available hosts to select. I saved and then deleted the VMWare Device Templates, as they are not needed, and tried
Installing OpManager 9 with MS SQL database on an other server.
I want to install OpManager 9 using MS SQLserver on an external server. I have installed MS SQL 2008 R2 on Windows 2008 R2 and created an Named Instance NI01. In SQL Server Configuration Manager (Protocols for NI01) I have removed the value 0 for TCP Dynamic Ports, and used 1433 as TCP port. So dynamic ports are not used On an other Windows 2008 R2 server I want to install OpManager Central Server 9, but I'm getting an error after "Configure the SQL Server details": The error-message is: "Unable
Evaluating and comparing values based on OID using scripts
Hi everyone, I am looking for a way to evaluate and compare values (based on OID) using script monitors. Assume that I have a device (.1.2.3.4) which reports its expected state (.1.2.3.4.1) and current state (.1.2.3.4.2). I'd like to periodically evaluate the values of the two states and compare them to check whether the current state is expected (i.e. no problem). The way I am doing it is querying from the OpManager database in script. Is this the only way? Is there any better, easier, less flaky

End-user overview
We are using OpManager and would like to also display a Dashboard for end-users. End-users normaly don't know what might be down when a specific server is down, so we would like to create a dashboard overview of "services" that we offer like Email, Intranet, etc. For example: The status of Intranet should be up when the Database servers, SharePoint Servers and AD servers are up. When one of these has issues, the whole service group should be reporting Critical. This way our end-users are able

Interface Status Change Monitoring and Alerting
It is typical for user access interfaces on our switches to go up and down mainly due to laptops users disconnecting from their desks. However, we still want to monitor the up/down status for if the interfaces go up or down too many times in a given period. It would be nice if this could be configured on the "Interface Properties" page where other thresholds are specified. It could then ask, "Alert if status is changed X times in X minutes". Possibly "X minutes" would have to be identified by "X

IBM Blade Center Inventory
Hey guys It would be great if OpManager could display and save in the OpManager database the inventory of the blades in a IBM Blade Center. This would make it a lot easier to find which Blades are in what Blade Center. I would also love to be able to see this viewable on a dashboard. I have tried to do this with a custom monitor and the IBM supplied MIBs. It does display the name of the blades and the blade slot. But it does not save the info in the database. So I cant search for the info and

Need Suggestions for Using OpManager for Asset Management
Hello-- I wasn't involved in the original purchase of the product and have been told that part of the reason for our selection was being able to also use the product for asset management. I've been working with the monitoring portion of the product, but our director wants to combine our current database of server details into the OpManager product in order to run reports on network metrics. The challenge I'm having is that there are more categories of information in our DB than in OpManager about
Notification Rule Scheduling Questions
When using a notification profile schedule: - Is the time reference the actual time on the OpManager(9200) server? - I have a schedule that starts at 17:00 and ends at 05:00(overnight), how does it span days? If I have this set for Mon & Tue, does it run from 00:00-05:00 on Mon, then 17:00 on Mon through 05:00 on Tue and then from 17:00-23:59 on Tue? I am trying to setup a notification profile for off office hours(05:00-17:00 Mon-Fri) so I am looking to find the most efficient way to do this. Any
New OPM Rule engine problem
new discovery rule engine is interesting feature. For test decided to add several devices to OPM. And rule was 'if new device is server, add to the business view serverView 3'. There were 4 servers. Yes. Those servers added to business view 'serverView 3' correctly. And this is the problem. Server's icon and names got placed over and over. If there were about 25 servers... it might get really ugly to rearrange. I was expecting something like this. Tidy, ready to go.

Custom Linux/Solaris scripts are not triggering web alarms
Hello, Personal experience has shown that web alarms are not being generated when custom Linux / Solaris script thresholds are being exceeded. This may be affecting all custom scripts, but at this time we're only running them on the Unix side of our environment. Might anyone know if this is a bug, or if I am simply missing a configuration setting? I am currently running build 9101 in a Windows 2008 Server 64-bit environment.
OpManager and WSUS on same server
I'm wanting to install Opmanager 9 on a 2008 x64 server that has WSUS installed. WSUS I believe is using MySQL. I'm wanting to use MySQL that comes bundled with OpManager. My concern is that the OpManager install will affect WSUS. Anyone tried this combination before or know if there is any issue?

Creating new Severity and new colors
Hi all, I've been asked to look into creating new severities and assigning them new colours. I've edited the SeverityInfo.conf file with the new levels and made sure to follow the guides but cant see anywhere that opmanager reads them. Long story short what im looking for it to get more granularity for attention and trouble warnings EG have coldstarts or service failures come up with something other than the yellow "Attention". Any thoughts?

Build 9200 login
Hi opManager Team! Please be advised that passwords may not work in IE8??? I was not able to login properly, but with the back function of Internet Explorer (that means back to the cached opman pages before the update) I managed to change the password to something simple like 12345. The change works (tested with firefox), but it does not, repeat NOT, work with Internet explorer. I have no idea what causes this - maybe different locale settings, but you should look into the issue ASAP. You can also
