Solarwinds Inquiry

Im also set up to receive NCM config downloads.  I would like to manage those as well but do not see how it was done.   Each time a config change is made on any node in the network, it sends out an e-mail to the determined recipients.    Again, looking to see where its determined who gets these.

thanks

Hi,

Which version of Solarwinds NPM/NCM are you running? for version 11.0.X every things can be managed from the Orion Web Console for older version 10.5 or 10.6 the alerts are managed by the program alert manager under sart/programs/Solarwinds.

Please share your Solarwinds Version so I can help you.

Regards.

Salah

I'll check and post ASAP.

Orion Platform 2014.2.1, QoE 1.0, NCM 7.3.2, NPM 11.0.1, NTA 4.1.0, IVIM 1.10.0, VNQM 4.1


I believe this is what you are looking for.

Hi,

You can simply find the version on the footer of the email, or in the footer of the web console without navigating to settings...

Hi,

Since you have the NPM 11.0.1 you can handle this via the web console.

For the alert  when node goes down, log on to your Solarwinds Orion Web Console using an account with admin right, navigate to settings then Manage Alerts, locate the alert named Alert me when a node goes down click edit and click configure action here you can find the persons who will receive the email.

For the NCM part, it depends if was configured for Real Time Change detection or a using a job for specific time change report, you need to check in Settings/NCM Settings/Real-Time Change Detection if there is a notification enabled! if so you can check for the reception emails in the Email Notification Defaults under NCM Settings, else navigate to Configs/Jobs and locate the job enabled and scheduled for sending the configuration change email then edit it and modify action.

Attached some print screens that would help you.

Hi Salah, im sure that you're suggestions are accurate,  much like a lot of things here, the person that did this before me made it way too complicated.  I will take a quick look at it and be back with you on this ASAP.

thanks for the help Salah.  I have spoken to someone here who is going to show me how we manipulate this.  Apparently it is not standard with a bunch of over complications in my book.  Which explains why it has been so difficult for me to see what should be an easy task.

Good luck
