monitoring interval for a device category vs. monitoring interval for a particular monitor (e.g. disk utilization)
What is the relationship between monitoring interval for a device category (Admin->Monitoring Intervals) vs. monitoring interval for a particular monitor (e.g. disk utilization)? Every monitor (e.g. disk utilization) has a required interval field. Does that make the device category monitoring interval unnecessary?
Implementation Plan
Hi, I've been asked to implement OpManager within a customer environment. Does anyone have an implementation plan showing the steps/decisions required? Would appreciate any help/advice. Many thanks
under linux the ShutDownOpManager.sh require X11
This is an issue on Linux. Both the installation script and startup script works fine without X11. However, the shutdown script require X11. There is no reason for this requirement and most production Linux boxes don't for X. I had to manually kill the server. Here is the output. # ./ShutDownOpManager.sh Exception in thread "main" java.awt.HeadlessException: No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it. at java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.checkHeadless(Unknown
Network Configuration Management plugin for OpManager 9 pulls hosts, but not credentials or asset details from opmanagerdb
Good day folk, It appears redundant, that one would install the Network Configuration Management plugin for OpManager 9, and have to retype credentials/asset details all over again for a separate MySQL DB instance for each and every network device. Is there anyway we can get a sync right off the bat, something like: IF installing for OpManager, THEN: IF SNMPcredentials table exists in opmanagerdb, THEN: INSERT SNMPcredentials-stuff INTO `deviceexpert`.`somecredentialtable`
apply template doesn't work under the following use case
1. discover a new device 2. suppose for whatever reason, OpManager manager is unable to categorize the device 3. manually categorize device (let's say Windows 2008) 4. modify device template for Windows 2008 5. apply Windows 2008 to new device. At this point, the apply operation doesn't work. The new device does not get any of the monitors from the device template. There is no error reported either.

WMI counter for Disk idle % percentage incorrect
I have added a WMI counter for Disk Idle % on 8 servers. 4 of them are correct. The other 4 are way wrong. If I watch perfmon, the disks are idle over 95%, OPManage is showing more like 20% on the reports and the TOP 10. If I go to the montior and click test, it comes back wrong the first time and the correct with every click of the test button after that. But alas, the reports then will only show a blip of being correct and then they go back to being incorrect again. I'm running 8112, patiently

Why some WMI performance counters(in OPManager9) differ from same counters in windows performance monitor?
Question about OPManager9 OS is windows server 2008R2 + MS SQL 2008R2. when I add in OPManager MSSQL monitors 'Buffer Cache Hit Ratio' and 'Page Life Expectancy' they show me right results(do match with windows performance monitor), but when I add in OPManager ordinary performance monitors(with 'Add WMI Monitor') WMI class=SQLServer:BufferMAnager and I pick same 'Buffer cache hit ratio' and 'Page life expectancy' 'Buffer cache hit ratio' shows incorrect numbers -2,256,22732 why are these numbers

How to add UCD-SNMP-MIB
Hi, This is an urgent issue for me. I've wrongly posted the follow as a new discussion and I didn't get a response. It is really a question. 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, ...).

how to add UCD-SNMP-MIB oid to device template

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

'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. Windows 7 is under 'Desktop' category and windows 2008 is under 'Server' category. At the windows 7 machine, 'Monitors' tab, 'File Monitors', I click 'Click here' nothing comes up and I saw a error prompt at status bar. In Windows 7 machine, 'Passwords' > 'Test Credential', SNMP and WMI are Passed. However in windows 2008 machine, the 'File Monitors' function works fine.
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
