We're doing some research around improving Orion's syslog and SNMP trap capabilities. As part of this task, we need to obtain samples of syslog and SNMP trap rules from customer's environments in order to understand how our users are currently leveraging rules. Please follow the steps below to submit your rules to us and earn 1,000 Thwack points:
For Orion Core 2016.1 or newer
- On your Orion server, go to Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Orion Diagnostics.
- Expand Advanced Data Collection Options > uncheck all the Quick Data Filters:
3. Expand "included data" > Expand "Orion Diagnostics" > Select the DB tables listed below
- Syslog table (Last 1000)*
- SyslogActions
- SyslogRules
- SyslogNodes
- TrapActions
- TrapRules
- TrapRulesDetail
- Traps table (Last 1000)*
4. Click "Start and Save Diagnostics"
5. Once all data collection is completed, zip into a single file and upload it to https://Share.SolarWinds.com/?ShareToken=968582E1C142EE2BF6E63AFA69DA0F034BE80E9F
For Older Orion Core versions
- Go to Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Database Manager
- Add default server > Select Orion Database > New Query > Execute the query below > Export to CSV file (see the screenshot below)
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[TrapRules] - Repeat Step 2 for the following queries (one row at a time)
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[TrapActions]
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[TrapRulesDetail]
SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [dbo].[Traps] *
SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM [dbo].[SysLog] *
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[SyslogRules]
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[SyslogActions]
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[SyslogNodes]
4. Once all data collection is completed, compress all files into one and upload it to https://Share.SolarWinds.com/?ShareToken=968582E1C142EE2BF6E63AFA69DA0F034BE80E9F
*Tables marked with * are optional as they contain syslog and trap data. These tables will be used to calculate event throughput.
Make a comment below once you've uploaded the data and I'll assign your 1,000 points.
Thank you!
