GA Release Feedback - Few Problems
We've deployed OpManager 7 in our production environment with a degree of success, but not without considerable time and effort to complete. Here is what we ran into: 1. Interface is indeed much improved, although at times inconsistent. It'd make more sense moving Active Directory as additonal tabs rather than another whole block under the device details. 2. Interface is much slower than 6. We are running OpManager on a dual P3 1.4Ghz with 2 GB RAM windows 2003 box with only antivirus running on
Dis I/O Stats For AIX
Hello, I want to monitor the Disk I/O for my AIX servers with some additional parametrs to be monitored. Presently the monitors available on Appmanager checks for Transfers/sec, reads/sec and writes/sec only. I wanted to check also for percentage of time the physical disk was active (%tm_act).

OpManager Automatic Monitoring Update Status Question
This is the 1st time we tried AdventNet OpManager Server Monitoring software. We have made the free edition to work, Though it does not automatically do the update status of the servers. We still have to click the link in the web page for an update status to be done. We have the snmp working because we see a star on the server list webpage.

Monitoring Using Dell PowerEdge MIBs
We have several Dell PowerEdge servers (mainly 2850's) and would like to monitor them using the MIBs available from Dell. I've loaded the Dell MIBs for PowerEdge v.5.2, A00 using the MIB Browser but a simple test of un-plugging one of the redundant power supplies did not generate an alarm. Does anyone have any experience monitoring Dell PowerEdge servers using Dell MIBs? Thanks in advance for any assistance! :D Cheers! :D Dave

Updated Beta install
When I attempt to install the new beta, currently running build 7000, it wants to uninstall build 7000 wiping out that data and setups. How do I go about getting the new version installed. Also, does the new build include Exchange support? One of the issues I have is that on Domain controllers, the domain authentication works for getting the AD information but fails on the WMI services. If I remove the domain from the auth credentials, the WMI works but the AD fails. Thanks Kirk
MSSQL Application Monitor (WMI)
Hi, We have recently installed OpManager v6015 and the MSSQL Application monitor that we are using to manage MSSQL using WMI. I added the MSSQL WMI App Monitor to the first server and everything worked fine. I could see all of the statistics for that database as expected. I then added it to a second a third server but the server snapshots show no application monitors as being installed for servers 2 & 3. However, I am seeing the database names from servers 2 & 3 showing up in Server 1, but no statistics
Adding custom monitos to Graphinfo.xml
In out business we have a new UPS Management card, but it is not possible to monitor via Opmanager. We also have the Powerware Cards, and I have edited the ups_monitors.xml and graphinfo.xml for those, and made a new device type, and they work. I also did this for the new HP UPS management card. But now I am trying to add a graph to Graphinfo.xml, but with no satisfying result. If I add the new monitors before the powerware monitors, they aren't displayed in the list of vendor specific monitors.

Hello! I have written this message to your support.opmanager.com site already, but I haven't gotten any response back yet, not even a 'we'll look into it' message, so I thought I'd try it here.

I checked the E-mail settings, everything looks ok, and the test even works. So I tried creating a new Notification Profile and

deleting admin account
Hi I've just bought a 1 user licence for OPUtils. I want to delete the admin account and create and account that only I know the username and password. How do I do this? I can't see anywhere to delete the admin account and until I do I cant create another account as I only have 1 user licence. With the ability of OpUtils to be able to upload a config to a device its too much of a security risk to have the default username and password on the login page. Any help would be appreciated

Detect Netgear switches
Hello, We have netgear and cisco switches. IF I make a manual scan, adding some ip devices, I have seen that the cisco devices are detected with all the details related to the model. The netgear switches instead are identified as unknown. The snmp is required in both switches. Is it possible to increase the number of devices in the archive of the Opmanager? Im' using the 6 version Mulitple Probes. Let me know. THanks
