OpManager MSP and SD+ related questions
Hi all. We are running SD+ quite happily (even though we have multiple clients we chose SD+ over SC) 1 Can we run SD+ and OM MSP on the same server? 2 What is the running over head for MSP? I know the min specs but I am trying to see if we can put OM central on an SBS2003 server for example. 3 Is the overhead the same for the probe servers as well? I am trying to work out if a client will notice degradation of the server performance. 4 re the ports, if port 443 is already being used what are others
Test an alert
After I setup my notification profiles and such, is there a way to test what will happen without phsyically bringing down a server? I figure there must be some sort of test facility that I am just missing. Thanks.
Port Interface Down Switches
We are currently getting messages about switch ports which seem to be people simply turning off their computer or disconnecting their laptop and packing up. These messages are currently filling up our home page on opmanager as we have lots of switches. Is there a way to change the threshold or disable these messages in particular from showing up on the main page.
TFTP service monitoring
TFTP monitoring doesn't seem to work. Is this because the protocol is UDP??? Cheers

Home page is half-blank
This is what our home page looks like. I added a SNMP CPU monitor on a server yesterday, and afterwards this is what I got. When I clicked on a device, it would come back saying it couldn't find the device. I then restarted OpManager and it would come up with a BE error when I tried to log in. I ran the repairDB.bat command like I saw in another post. Everything else seems to work OK, but the front page is still messed up. Any ideas on what to run / re-install / etc. I'm running version 6, but not
Enhancement Request - Suspend Notifications for Device
Hi I would like to suggest an enhancement for opmanager, to add a button to suspend all notifications for a device. Currently, if a device is flapping (eg a wan link bouncing) then opmanager will generate tonnes of emails alerting us to the fact. Once you know a device is down or flapping, you typically dont want an email every time it bounces, but you also want to be able to capture the device outages so you can gather availability, MTBF and MTTR. Currently, the only way to stop the torrent of emails

Opmanager problems/questions
Hello support, we are running opmanager 6(build 6005) on a XP SP2, P4 3.2 ghz and a 1gig of ram. But we are experiencing some difficulties and have some questions: - We have SNMP enable devices and able to see the memory and disk utilization dial graphs. We cannot see it for Cpu utilization, why? - Can we display values instead of percentages. example, 1gb of memory being used out of 2gb instead of 50%. - Can we have multiple threshold setup on monitors. example, if a application in windows using

SNMP or WMI on 2003 Servers
Which monitoring type should I be using. I have a choice of SNMP and WMI when dealing with my 2003 servers (non DC's). What is the preferred type? I also notice sometimes the SNMP vs the WMI values show quite a difference in each other for the same monitoring. Why is that? Thank you.

New Feature for IP management in OpUtils 3
Would like to see the ability to have the info stored somehow so that anyone can login to see it, also the ability to modify an ip shown and give it a personal status of either used, not used (as it is now), and reserved status. This would be good so that if an address is being used for a temp solution somewhere or as an internal thing, those ips can be marked with the appropriate status. This feature is available in the SolarWinds version and I would like to see it implemented here. This is the
where are my alarms?
Good morning, I have one question concerning OpManager. I'm testing it for buying but I have a strange problem. I receive alarms and traps from several equipments. I have configured in "Database maintenance" and "Alarm database" for maintaining 10000 recent alarms in the database. But now I still receive alarms and traps but they are displayed during 1 day or even few hours and then they disappear... For example, I simulate several "Warm Start" traps, they were all stored yesterday but today they
SNMP after Hotfix 6005
I just applied the hotfix #6005 and after a few hours logged in to find that no SNMP data is available. When I go to test the monitor I get "The Monitor did not respond to the test request" for ones that were working just fine as of this morning. The only logical conclusion is something in the hotfix has changed the way SNMP monitoring functions. As anyone else experienced this? Anyone have any ideas on what we can do?

Customized Availability Report
I need to generate an availability report but only with all systems below a certain threshold (like 99.0%) and including some custom fields. The builtin report seems to be unable to do this... I guess, that this can only be solved by using Crystal Reports. I have that and can access the database, but need the field definitions and some more help in order to be able to piece this report together (unless somebody already has something like it and can provide me with it...). Regards, Remo

Create a URL link under Additional Feilds Properties
Hi, Is it possible to add a URL address under additional Feild properties, so if someone is checking a server or router, we can have a url pointing them to our Wiki that would contain more detailed information, or even to the manufactures website. This would be very benifical as you are limited to the anmount of inforation that you can cram into the feilds.
Red Hat ES 3 - does not display all mount points
I'm struggling to get OpManager to get free disk space information from our Red Hat ES 3 Linux servers. When I try to add a Resource Monitor for free disk space (GB or MB), I can only see some mount points, but not (as luck would have it) the ones I actually want to monitor (/data). On two of the servers the mount point I want to monitor (/data) is owned by a user account other than root (but I can access it as root when I ssh to the server manually). These two servers have mirrored disks. The command
New features?
Are there any new features coming out soon that people have requested? Many of the other products your company is developing have a Product RoadMap posted in the forums. We hear "we will try to add this to a future release" alot but we never know when that future release will happen. So far 95% of the updates released for OpManager has been fixes over the last 6 months. When will new features and functions be added that people have requested? I ask this because my company uses a few of your products

memory utilization graph with cisco 3560
Hi we are currently testing OpManager before purchasing the Professional Version. We are testing OpManager with a Cisco catalyst 2950 series 12G and a Cisco catalyst 3560 series 24 PoE. We tried the discovery function, and OpManager found the 2950 as a 2950 and the 3560 as a desktop. The specific OID for the 3560 wasn�t in the database, so we added it with admin\device type\add new device\ and the OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.563 We deleted the 3560 and rediscovered it. Opmanager found it as a 3560 but we
