SNMP probe parameters not works

I Create SNMP probe monitor which monitoring HP procurve switch (up, down port)

In monitor i use

parameter: SnmpVarBinds/SnmpVarBind[OID=".1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.42"]/Value

operator: equals

value: 2

(1 - up, 2-down)

This monitor works fine.

__________________________________

Next i create specific monitor which monitor switch ports by:

The string which interprets this port is selected for an aggregator but not attached

In monitor i use

parameter: SnmpVarBinds/SnmpVarBind[OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.8.25.1.2.1.4"]/Value

operator: contain

value: appropriate

This monitor not work.


i don't know why?

1) May be problem in result of SNMP get. First working monitor get only one result with 1 or 2. Second not working monitor

get result for all 48 ports with big symbolic parameters?

2) May be problem in monitor parameter.

any advice and suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Hey, why do you create a SNMP probe in the first place?

Why just not discovering the device like any other network device:

How to Discover Network Devices in Operations Manager

When you this the HP ProCurve will be monitored as a Generic Device, it will not have the status of "Certified" which means you are able to do simple up/down monitoring. 

But now comes the interesting part - you can do a small trick and "certify" your HP ProVurve and you will get port up/down information , VLANs and some other data. I have already posted how:

Monitoring CISCO 2960 Switches 

You will just have to modify the discovery config file. 

To make it even better you can get CPU and Memory information also (alsmost like on usual "certified"  device) and Michel Kamp has blogged about this years ago. This involves basic authoring knowledge, but it is nothing fancy, everybody can do it (following the guide of course :) ):

Extending HP network devices with CPU and Memory counters

So at the end you will have monitored HP ProCurve with up and downs status, port up and down status, vlans, CPU, Memory, etc...

Just ask if you need more help.

Thanks for answer Stoyan Chalakov!

1) I Need to know how monitoring oid result with symbolic, not number parameters

2) I try to rediscover my device according you article.

Unfortunately it's Generic.


________________________

i add this to oid2type_Field.conf

# HP Procurve switch 1910-48
.1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.11.1.85 {
    TYPE = Switch
    VENDOR = HP
    MODEL = HP Procurve switch 1910-48
    CERTIFICATION = CERTIFIED
    CONT = Generic-Bridge
    VLAN = Dot1q

INSTRUMENTATION:
    Interface-Fault = MIB2
    Interface-Performance = MIB2
    Port-Fault = MIB2
    Port-Performance = MIB2
}

Hi,

after you modify the discovery config file you will have to rediscover your devices. Then they will appear as "certified" and you will get a bit more from them (port status, VLANs, etc, ect. )

HAve you tried re-running the discovery?

Another important topic: You have to modify the file on your servers, which are part of the resource pools, responsible for network monitoring. Usually the servers in it are dedicated only for this.

It's work after reboot SCOM server. The icon of the divice in the left top corner not ok.

On the other discovered switch icon of the device ok!

2) What about "I Need to know how monitoring oid result with symbolic, not number parameters"

SharePoint2013 term set values in SharePoint list column

Hello,

Here is requirement that I'm working on.

When I try to add an item to SharePoint list, I have 3 mandatory attributes that needs to be filled in.

  1. Country
  2. State
  3. City

Now, these country,state and city values are defined in the term store (managed metadata service application). So requirement is that when I add a new item to list.

  • Country should be dropdown field and values should come from Term store.
  • Based on the country selection, second dropdown should show all the states which again should be from term store
  • Based on the state selection, third dropdown should show all the cities which again should be from term store.

We are trying to stay way from the complied code (event handler/receiver) so if it's possible with the CSOM then can some one please give me the example articles? OR suggest the better approach.

Thank you in advance.

You could check out the brilliant https://spservices.codeplex.com/

I could not say if it covers exactly what you are looking for but it certainly shows you about to filter a field based on another field entry on a SharePoint form.

Alternatively I guess you could have a single field called "City" which the user picks and nest the term inside the country and city terms.  I.e. the user picks Los Angeles of which the parent is California of which the parent is US.

Hi

You can monitor the mail flow by following PowerShells Test-Mailflow cmdlet to diagnose whether mail can be successfully sent from and delivered to the system mailbox on a Mailbox server:-

Test-Mailflow -AutoDiscoverTargetMailboxServer

Test-Mailflow -TargetEmailAddress

Test-Mailflow MailboxServerName01 -TargetMailboxServer MailboxServerName02

Test-Mailflow -TargetEmailAddress testuser@yourdomain.com

You also write Test-Mailflow results into the file by putting the output to ConvertTo-Html or ConvertTo-Csv and adding

Test-Mailflow -AutoDiscoverTargetMailboxServer | ConvertTo-Csv > "C:\MailFlowOutPut.csv"

There is also a script to do this job:-

Help with SIP truck networking on

Howdy, I need help with SIP truck networking. I already contacted for help from my ISP(this one is for a small business).  The technician refereed me their KB page.

 I need to configure Skype we are using it for our client meeting and other business meting . We always face issue with front end server is not starting. It always shows a message Starting.."
Please help me as this issue will affect our relationship with client. We are just having a small business with 50 employees.
Please help me if a easy fix is available.
Thanks in advance  


Reply:

First thing, if you have installed the SFB FE and start the service the first time it could take some time to start teh frontend service.

You should look into the eventlog under application you will find Lync and all events for the SFB.

There you should find some more Infos about the starting problems.

Problems could be, cert issues, database issues etc. The SQL database services should be started.

If you want to use a SIP Trunk, be sure your proivider ist quallified for SFB.

Yes my service provider is Thinktel, they do SFB.

So if you use a direct SIP trunk you should install standalone mediation server for the SIP trunk and don't use a co-located mediation server.

Learning PowerShell Online

Microsoft now expects us to have a working knowledge of PowerShell for all their admin certifications. They don't necessarily expect an extensive command of the shell, but at least a working knowledge.

PowerShell guru Don Jones puts it this way, "If you think certifications were a key to your getting and maintaining your job, then make no mistake: PowerShell is even more crucial. Ignore it at your peril."

But this prediction of his is just downright scary, "Learn PowerShell or learn to say, 'Would you like fries with that?'"

If you want to learn PowerShell, but prefer an online resource instead of a book, then I've found an excellent tutorial on the powershell.com website. It's called Mastering PowerShell by Dr. Tobias Weltner, and it's a training course divided into 20 short tutorials, starting with the basics.

I hope you find this resource useful on your way to PowerShell mastery.

office 365 deployment

A client is using Gmail as mailing solution and then they deployed office 365 now then what can be issues they can face after having both mailing solution deployed.


Reply:

Hi Sonam,

To answer your question, i would like to clarify few points. Is this a mail migration or just a cutover? Is the client using both mail systems at same time? Is is the same SMTP domain used for both gmail and office 365? Is the MX has changed to Office 365?

Pick Up the Phone

Why don't you pick up the phone?

   I have not had a single call answered through this installation which has not been problem-free. You say that you have 24 hour service, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I don't care to "figure things out" myself with the installation of a new financial database, however that seems to be your plan for us. 

   When your employee eventually turns this terrible hold music off (which I have heard for over forty -five minutes with three calls in the last 48 hours) and asks what they can do for me, don't be surprised when she reports having to speak to an awful person. That is probably what I'll be and that is what your company has earned. 

Thanks,

Ben

Remove the Page option on Team Page

I'm probably being really dumb here but I'm setting up a Teamsite and have granted users edit permissions so they can use newsfeed which is where I want to start.

I can see at the top of the home page 2 options Browse and Page. If any user clicks on Page they can add text to the space above the Newsfeed, so effectively they can edit the appearance of the Team Site and could potentially put unwanted text there and there would be no way of knowing who has done it. Seems sort of stupid so how do I remove this?

If I remove permissions then they cannot add a newsfeed. I want them to be able to add a Newsfeed but not add test above as I have illustrated in my cap.

Thanks for that - it's about as clear as custard - here's a little snippet:

Seem to be a pretty good solution and this is what the Newsfeed web part is actually being made more.

To make use of the newly created permission level navigation to the MicroFeed list permissions. Stop the inheritance of permissions, edit the Visitors group and assign the “Newsfeed participation”permission level.

Hmmmm Is this even English?

Also he does say " this is just for display the newsfeed for user that only have view permission." (sic). So it's not what I wanted. What I wanted was to allow the users to add new items to the newsfeed but not edit the page.

No beer, just a smile :-)

Now up to date at 10586.589. What new features are available with 1607 ? I suspect the failure to install with roll back is Nvidia driver issue again. It will probably install if I disable the device. I am worried about loosing the only driver that works with win 10 (a not the latest modified by Microsoft). Might try 1607 at a later time.

It will probably install if I disable the device. I am worried about loosing the only driver that works with win 10 (a not the latest modified by Microsoft). Might try 1607 at a later time.

Windows Update now downloading KB3140743 (March Update).

Windows Update trying to download/install old update is similar to what I reported last month (minor annoyance).

Tried "feature update Win 10 ver 1607" again after successful update to 10586.589 (takes about one hour, 25 minutes), again it failed and rolled back.

Will try third time with Nvidia Graphics Adapter disabled and will post results.

Windows update no longer presents "feature update Win 10 ver 1607", says I am up to date, tried "Windows 10 Upgrade 10 Assistant". It told me 10586 is not the latest build, click continue to install 14393, which fails and rolls back (with Nvidia disabled), might try again with Nvidia uninstalled.

I am (was) at 1511 10586.545, ran Windows update, went into long install of "feature update Win 10 ver 1607" which failed and restored 1511 10586.545. Used Hide/Show app to hide "feature update Win 10 ver 1607". Hide/Show app shows lots of 1511 updates avail. Best way to proceed ?

That's odd. What 1511 updates are available? If you were on 10586.545 then you were on the latest update for the 1511 release. Thanks!

KB3185614 (cumulative update) Softpedia says it will update to OS Build 10586.589)

http://news.softpedia.com/news/what-s-new-in-windows-10-cumulative-updates-kb3189866-kb3185614-and-kb3185611-508261.shtml

There is also KB3161102, KB3181403 and 9 others (Office, etc.)

Should I try WinUpdate again with "feature update Win 10 ver 1607" hidden or work with you to try to debug "feature update Win 10 ver 1607" ?

Fourth attempt (to upgrade to 14393 via "Windows 10 Upgrade 10 Assistant" with Nvidia uninstalled) also failed and rolled back and major difficulties on rollback I guess due to uninstalled Nvidia (many BSOD with VMMI (VIRTUAL_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL) crashes. Got it to stop by installing an old driver in safe mode and when examining old driver with Device Manager after restart in normal mode, MAGIC HAPPENED and I have a new driver with Microsoft mod (UGLY version 2.1 Build_223) but I'm still at 1511 10586.589, not 1607 or 14393. Also: My manual restore points have disappeared (deleted by upgrade attempt ?)

John,

Any comment on the other posts in this forum regarding the CU stalling at "downloading 45%"?  I had this on just 1 of 7 PC's and resolved it through the standard workaround of stopping services, deleting folders under SoftwareDistribution, re-starting services, and repeating update.  Others are apparently finding quicker results by just installing from Update Catalog.

Thanks...

Yes on sending logs but I have infrequent access to the one PC so may take some time.

Some other observations that might help:  update was successful first time on both 32-bit and 64-bit installs but the one that failed was a 64-bit.  It was also the only one that is still an upgrade from Win7 to Win10 (7 to 1511 to 1607).  All others had been upgraded but then subsequently clean installed.  Also, prior to my workaround on the one, I tried rebooting to see if it would complete but instead it found an update for Silverlight (KB3182373) that was not listed with the first set and installed it before showing the CU again stuck at 45%.  Almost had the feeling that the Silverlight download was somehow interrupting the initial download (probably just coincidental).  None of the other six PC's had Silverlight installed since they were clean installs.  I have now removed Silverlight from the problem PC since I don't really need it.

Hi Eileen,

This one looked a little odd, but I think the following steps should sort you out. Can you give it a try and let me know?

Open an Administrator command prompt

  1. Net stop bits
  2. Net stop wuauserv
  3. Net stop appidsvc
  4. Net stop cryptsvc
  5. Del "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader\qmgr*.dat" (quotes and all!)
  6. Del c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution\*.* /s
  7. Net start bits
  8. Net start wuauserv
  9. Net start appidsvc
  10. Net start cryptsvc
  11. Check for Updates and see if it works.

Thanks!

We think we tracked down the source of this problem yesterday, but it takes some time for our corrective measure to replicate out to all the Windows Update cache servers. Should sort itself out before too long though.

Me too. Dell XPS 15 Win10 x64. KB3185614 fails at 99% and is rolled back. In contrast to evollo I did not tried the Steps you suggested. 

I tried disabling the UEFI Secure Boot feature and deleting old Entries of registries ProfileList, but no success. 

Always get error code 0x800F0922 in event log (german text: Installationsfehler: Die Installation des folgenden Updates ist mit Fehler 0x800F0922 fehlgeschlagen: Kumulatives Update für Windows 10 Version 1511 für x64-basierte Systeme (KB3185614))

Better experience with workarounds.   <eg>

A success reported today:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-update/cumulative-update-for-windows-10-version-1511-for/fb1ad651-ac4e-456b-bd45-bb9d9921ae13?msgId=f2d3ba78-0548-497b-8f7d-f7efbc59d32d

Meanwhile I am still uncertain how brittle I should be regarding the update procedure.  E.g. yesterday, I updated my mother's W10 X64 Home.  Coincidentally her MBAM happened to be completely uninstalled because I had done that while trying to solve a problem involving her HP Support tool.  It was the smoothest cumulative update so far.  Usually I always at least disable MBAM from starting with Windows and turn off its real-time monitor.

And today, I have to decide whether I should uninstall Hyper-V before allowing the latest cumulative update.  Probably now would be the time to do it to minimize all possible interactions with Hyper-V and the update because it is currently showing as "ready to download".  Also, IE seems to be in a very strange state, especially on Answers, so a reboot for both seems like a good idea before getting and installing the update.  TBD.

This update excelled itself. First time I tried it I ended up with a completely unbootable computer which could only tell me "An operating system wasn't found" when it started.

After some repair work and then a long period while it backed out the update it was back to normal again. I've since tried the installation twice, the same problem didn't recur but neither did the update install. The last time it took 55 minutes to get to 98% then failed and spent what must have been a similar amount of time rolling back the update.

The Event Viewer reports "Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x800F0922: Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3185614)."

I'm on 1511 10586.164 by the way.

error 0x800F0922

This is one of the "this should never happen" codes that finally got its own code but has not been clearly documented.  You can find out what it supposedly means by finding it in your CBS.log (or relevant archived portion).

Here's an example

http://superuser.com/questions/1120506/windows-10-pro-64-bit-version-1607-fails-to-install-kb3176938-with-0x800f0922

You could try using the timestamp in the Event log entry as context which should bound your search in the CBS.log.   E.g. probably the error occurred before it was reported.

Edit: solved problem. My bad! It appears App Readiness service was disabled, which caused Edge updates to fail. After enabling App Readiness  KB3185611 installed flawlessly. 

---------------------------

KB3185611 for Windows 10 x64 fails to install no matter if it started from Update Manager or as standalone downloaded windows10.0-kb3185611-x64_be480763644c5b51f63b299b89e0281e1a32aba1.msu package. Always reaches 100% and always rolls back with error code 0x800f0922.

CBS log explains this code as [HRESULT = 0x800f0922 - CBS_E_INSTALLERS_FAILED].

Tracking the same log for reason which caused rollback, i.e. searching for string "Failure will not be ignored: A rollback will be initiated" leads to following sections:

This update excelled itself. First time I tried it I ended up with a completely unbootable computer which could only tell me "An operating system wasn't found" when it started.

After some repair work and then a long period while it backed out the update it was back to normal again. I've since tried the installation twice, the same problem didn't recur but neither did the update install. The last time it took 55 minutes to get to 98% then failed and spent what must have been a similar amount of time rolling back the update.

The Event Viewer reports "Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x800F0922: Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3185614)."

I'm on 1511 10586.164 by the way.

What Robert said. :-)

Elsewhere in the CBS log you should be able to pinpoint *which* installer actually failed, and I'd love to know so we can look into it.

Thanks!

Follow-up to my Win 10 Pro update issues. Never succeeded with the KB3185614 update. Solution was a direct download and install of the Win 10 Anniversary Update. While this update to 1607 completed, I was left with a dead Print Spooler. This was not the first time the Print Spooler crashed after a major Win 10 update. The first time was when the machine was upgraded from Win 7 Pro to Win 10 Pro; the second time was after a subsequent Win 10 cumulative update (which interestingly also repeatedly rolled back at 99% and never completed); this was the third occurrence. Each time this occurs, I have to fix the registry to get the spooler going again. (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Spooler>DependOnService>[Delete the string value "http"]. Makes me wonder whether the Print Spooler error may be related to this 99% roll-back issue.

KB3189866 for 1607 (Anniversary Update)                                 

?

On two 1607 machines I just saw  KB3194496  which supposedly replaces  3192366  (?) and gave build  14393.222 (according to winver.exe).   However, according to  Update History it is  KB3189866  which is being superseded.

In any case, both installations happened in one pass.  In one case I was prepared and had disabled MBAM (on my mother's W10 Home).  On the second I had an incredibly bad UX before the Update Restart reboot.  Maybe the good news is that I didn't have to do anything with Hyper-V.  I didn't resort to doing a hard reset but it sure looked like I might have to.  I couldn't see anything but a presentation that I had been watching continued to be heard; I had to sign in using Narrator; my pen was not matching anything which was on the screen; etc.  My keyboard arrow keys were backwards (normally my Tablet is in Portrait orientation and I think something made it think that it was in Landscape).  Eventually I got Task Manager up on my big monitor (which is always Landscape but at first had been disconnected) and killed everything I could including explorer.exe then started shutdown.exe -r.  That's when I was "informed" that I was doing an Update.  I should have known.   ; ]

Update Taking Forever. Computer unusable.

Laptop has been going through the September Windows 10 update for 18 hours now and this is the second time Windows has tried to do this.  1st time I let it go for 22 hours, then forced a power-down.  It then just started the update again.  This is will be my last Windows machine.  Does this take more than a day in some cases or is this a lost cause?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

-Andy LeDuc

Ugh, sorry to hear of your issue. If the power off during the upgrade did not help (i.e. roll back the old Windows or get the new Windows) then more drastic action maybe needed. So before that leave it another 12 hours perhaps (sleep on it?). Seem some Windows process need 24 hours (unrelated to this but left some Windows tasks along time myself).

Beyond that well, accessing your drive (as a removed drive and external drive in another USB drive etc on another system) to backup all your data, docs photos videos etc. Favourites, basically everything backup and do a clean install of Windows on the device, install apps and restore all backed up data again. To make the machine usable again if it has gone that wrong.

You said any suggestions :)

Windows 10

I have had to restore my system and it is now running windows 7.  I had downloaded windows 10 (free download), but the restore got rid of it.

Can I re-download and install windows 10 for free?

Thanks for your help.

Yes. If your Windows 10 was activated before you restored back to Win 7.

The moment Win 10 is activated, it acquires the Digital License.

Digital License allows you to reinstall the SAME Win 10 Edition into the SAME computer anytime you want and as often as you want. There is no time limit restriction.
No product key is required and activation will be automatic.

Just one thing to remind you...........

When you reinstall Windows 10, you must use the iso file which has the same Win 10 edition , Language and Bit version as the one you were using.
When you reinstall Win 10, you might be asked for product key. Just select the SKIP option or the "I don't have a product key" option, and continue.
When installation is completed, activation will be automatic.

Use this MCT link to download your Win 10 iso file.

Launch eventvwr.msc connect to computer different credentials

Hi,

in order to implement Microsoft LAPS we´re testing our scripts for help desk. One of them is simply open eventvwr and connect to a remote pc (eventvwr.msc remotepc). I´ve tried different ways to open eventvwr.msc connecting to a remote pc and using diffrent credentials for the connection.  Scripts are going to run from a terminalserver and access to the clients is only allowed throw a local admin account (LAPS).

$adminuser= "$computername\user"  $localpw= "xxx"  $secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString $localpw -AsPlainText -Force  $mycreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($adminuser, $localpw)  New-PSDrive -Name $computername -PSProvider FileSystem -Root "\\$computername\c$" -Credential $mycreds  Start-Process -FilePath "C:\Windows\System32\eventvwr.exe" -ArgumentList $computername  

this unfortunately dont work (idea came by http://www.visualbasicscript.com/Event-Viewer-Alternate-Account-Credentials-m38327.aspx). I know I could do easyly do "Invoke-Command", but we need the viewer (gui) too.

Thanks all for the kind assistance!

what you are trying to do cannot be done.

You can open MMC and make a custom console that is permanently connected to a different system then launch that from PowerShell.

The eventvwr has no automation interfaces.

You start-process is attempting to run the viewer on the remote computer.  You cannot run a GUI app remotely.

Just open the MMC using the credentials you want, then right-click to connect to the remote computer. None of this requires a script.

Background job returns different results from PSJob

Get-WmiObjectWin32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration-Filter{IPEnabled='TRUE'} -ComputerName$Server-AsJob| Out-Null


$NICSettings=Get-Job| Wait-Job-Timeout60 | Receive-Job-ErrorActionSilentlyContinue

is returning me different results from

Start-job -argumentlist $server -scriptblock {

param (

   $server

)

Get-WmiObjectWin32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration-Filter{IPEnabled='TRUE'} -ComputerName$Server

} | Out-null

$NICSettings=Get-Job| Wait-Job-Timeout60 | Receive-Job-ErrorActionSilentlyContinue

The reason I am trying to run it as a background job rather than a PSJob is because occasionally the PSJob throws an error saying it has been disposed already when I try to receive the results.  I'm eventually using the SetDNSServerSearachOrder method on the returned object and the background job is returning an object without the method where the PSJob returns an object with the method.

Thanks,

Chris Hirst

"PSJob"?  "background job"?  What does this mean?

$job = Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration -Filter 'IPEnabled=True' -ComputerName $server -AsJob  $job | Wait-Job | Receive-Job
Same thing both times.

Did you check the methods returned on the objects because all the properties returned are the same its the methods that are not.

You cannot return methods from a job or a remote session.  PowerShell can only serialize properties.  If you wan tot use the methods then you must use tem inside the job that acquires the object.

except the PSJob does return an object with a SetDNSServerSearachOrder method.

But I will take that as an answer as to why my background job doesn't return the method.  Thank you.

Yes - you are correct that they execute differently.  I suspect a different marshalling method is used.  It is a good point for further research.

Since we are sending a script block to the jobber and passing that to the remote it is likely that the wrapper is getting removed on the remote.

RPC opnum bug in the Windows 10 RSAT Firewall snapin and

When we try to use the Remote Server Administration Tools Windows Firewall snap-in to connect to  Server 2012 R2, no rules are listed. It connects properly to 2008 R2 and to 2012. When capturing the traffic between the Windows 10 box and each of the different server versions, we see that the RPC op number is different when attempting to query the rules. The op numbers are described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc231568.aspx

When Windows 7 or 8 queries the 2012 R2 server, it uses opnum 69 (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj217552.aspx) successfully. When Windows 10 tries to query the same 2012 R2 server, it uses opnum 73 (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt182610.aspx) which the server replies is unsupported.

Based on the behavior of the clients, it appears that the snap-in is responsible for sending the correct op code based on the version of the server OS that it is connecting to rather than the OS being update to reflect changes (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd240216.aspx).

Not sure if there is any solution at this point other than to report it to MS and hope for a patch sometime soon.
