different device template for multiple farms of linux machines
Hi, Each farm of linux machine is used for different purpose and has different monitoring requirements. Is it possible to create multiple linux server device templates, one for each farm of machines? Is it possible to get the automatic device discovery mechanism to automatically categorize each machine? Perhaps base on ip address or hostname? One approach I can think of is to run multiple OpManager. This is not ideal because of I have multiple banks of machines for different use. Thanks, Jamesk

No Notify Options under Configure Ports

how to add UCD-SNMP-MIB oid to device template
Hi, This is a newbie question. I am trying to add swap memory usage on a linux box to the linux device template. In particular: ssSwapIn, memSwapError, etc (1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.3, 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.4.100, ...). My understanding is this is from the UCD-SNMP-MIB. These memory swap usage monitors are not part of the standard monitors in OpManager (i.e. not in the Add Monitors list). I click on "New Monitor" and select SNMP. The "Add New Monitor" form has a field for SNMP OID. However, I cannot

Templates and Alert Profiles - Why doesn't it work this way??
So I have over 150 servers under my "Windows 2003" template.. After I setup the template with what I wanted to monitor I went through the Quick Config Wizard and assigned a notification profile to all the servers.. What I would think would and what I want to happen is whenever I add another server under my "Windows 2003" template it should automatically get that alert profile. However, it doesn't do this, unless I'm doing something wrong.. Anytime I add a new server I have to manually setup my alerts

Monitoring file size within folder
Hello I would like to be able to monitor file sizes within a folder without specifying a specific filename. The folder acts as a drop box and then an automated process transfers the incoming files to another folder. The files are always called something different and sometimes there are multiple files dropped in at the same time. I don't know if it's possible to set up a wildcard of some sort so that the filename doesn't matter. for example, the monitor would scan the folder and see file1-11052112011.pdf
Network Monitor configuration questions
1) I have over 200 hundred switches I monitor with Network Monitor. I do not have, nor do I want to configure, DNS names for all of those switches. OpUtils pulls the System Name via SNMP. How can I replace the "DNS Name" column with a "System Name" column? I would love to do this everywhere in OpUtils, but the Network Monitor would be the first place I would like this change. 2) I have edited the email alerts to replace the "DNS Name" field with the "System Name" field and when I click the
Problems adding router

IT automation in opmanager
The new IT automation option is very nice, but when I tried to compress/delete old files, I only get files compressed or deleted in the folder I specified, not the ones in the nested folders it contains. Is this the expected behaviour or could I get the entire folder tree compressed/deleted?
'File Monitor' not work for Desktop category
Hi all, I am using OpManager v8 build 8812. I already setup some devices in OpManager : a windows 7 and a windows 2008 machines.

Incorrect Information is displayed
Hi there, Opmanager is displaying incorrect HDD utilization of one of the Linux servers. At dashboard it is displaying one partition is 67% full but when you go to the snapshot page of that device it is displaying disk usage is 100% and generating false alarms. I requested the linux team to manually check the disk usage of that server, it was only 65% full. I thought that I have misconfigured the device so I deleted the device and re-added it to opmanager but the result was same. I tried to reinstall
Top 10 CPU not showing Virtualized devices
We are testing OpManager and i have a question, On the "Home - Overview" page i have the "Top 10 CPU Utilization" widget added and i have set it to show ALL DEVICES. Why does this widget not show any of the Virtualized devices in there? So far only Servers added independantly are showing but no virtual machines OR ESX hosts are showing their CPU usage in this widget. The Virtual Machines and ESX Hosts do however show their CPU usage if you look at the "Virtualization" tab...but it would be nice

Sorting IP addresses
When sorting by the IP address column, is it possible to sort by octet rather than by straight numbers? For instance, when I sort by IP address, they are listed in this sort of order: 10.1.11.32 10.1.11.6 10.10.11.1 10.114.11.1 10.5.11.1 10.81.11.1 I would like to see that sorted like this instead: 10.1.11.6 10.1.11.32 10.5.11.1 10.10.11.1 10.81.11.1 10.114.11.1

We are monitoring event 642 on our DCs for disable accounts for audit reasons and it works very well. However, when we try to fire off an event on ID 624 for account creation, we never see alarm or an email stating the condition was met.

OpManager does not start after a reboot..
Whenever I reboot my server (for patches or maintenance) OpManager and NetFlow Plugin never start up automatcially. I've had this issue and submitted numerous tickets on it but it never gets 100% fixed.. The service just keeps crashing and keeps repeatedly trying to start.. What I have to do is go into services and stop the service (stop it from trying to start over and over).. I then go into taskmgr and kill: jqs.exe, jucheck.exe, jusched.exe, and mysqld-nt.exe. I then go back to services and start

Monitoring 64-bit Counters with SNMP
I am using OpManager 8 to monitor the spare disk space on an Isilon cluster. The number of free blocks is represented as a 64-bit counter. I can read the counter in MIB Browser by setting the version of SNMP to v2c. I have tried to add a monitor to OpManager to monitor this counter but the monitor returns zero. I assume this is because OpManager is using SNMP v1 queries. How can I force OpManager to use SNMP v2c queries with this device? Can I do this within a Device Template?

OpManager – issuing recursive alarms on 4 ISDN links on 2 routers.
Hi – I just inherited an installation of OpManager. There are 109 routers being monitored, and 2 of them are issuing recursive alarms on two of their ISDN interfaces. The alarms are: Interface 'BRI0/1/0-Physical-BR0/1/0' is down. These alarms occur regularly all day, every day about every 3-10 minutes. But, When I drill down into the interface display using OpManager, the interfaces show 100% availability. The routers have identical configurations: Router 1 interfaces: BRI0/0/0-BR0/0/0
