View Universal Device Poller statistics in NPM

If you want to see a poller results in the SolarWinds Platform Web Console, you need to define which widgets, or resources, should be displayed on which views.

Prerequisites

The poller must be enabled, and assigned to the devices.

Set the poller to collect historical statistics. Without historical data, SolarWinds Platform Web Console widgets will only display the last polled value, and you cannot add charts with the poller results to the SolarWinds Platform Web Console.

Define widgets with UnDP results for SolarWinds Platform Web Console views

  1. Start the Universal Device Poller application, for example by clicking Start > SolarWinds Orion > Universal Device Poller.
  2. In the All Defined Pollers pane, select the poller whose results you want to add as a SolarWinds Platform Web Console resource.
  3. Right-click the poller, and click Web Display.
  4. Confirm that Yes is selected, and select the types of poller widgets that you want to display on individual SolarWinds Platform Web Console views.

    5. Click Preview to see what the poller widget will look like in the SolarWinds Platform Web Console view.

  5. Make sure Do Not Show This Poller If It Is Not Assigned is selected. It ensures that the custom poller widget appears only on views for nodes or interfaces that have the custom poller assigned to them and enabled.
  6. Click Finish.

When you log in to the SolarWinds Platform Web Console, the selected widgets with poller data will appear on selected views for nodes or interfaces that have the poller assigned to them and enabled.
