Hi all
I have NPM install with a separate NTM installation. I have a few custom made dashboards but not anything crazy. I probably have a couple thousand interfaces and maybe 100 different objects of various sorts including most types of network equipment and servers.
So not a huge implementation but definitely a significant size of a medium business.
Here is my gripe.
I CONSTANTLY have to sit and babysit the servers. Check for ghost interfaces, rediscover, fix dashboards that suddenly stop working, re discover, netflow not being gathered, update/patching/hotfixing software. What was to become a go to tool for monitoring and troubleshooting is now a tool where I hope I can find some information to help me troubleshoot an issue. I can no longer redirect other sys admins/dbas to use the tool as its hit or miss if they can find any data.
Yes, I open tickets with Solarwinds and we solve the issue in a few days/weeks. System seem to run ok for a short period of time and then something new happens.
Anyone else experiencing this?
