Re: Looking for help on getting solarwinds to stop saving the config when the RTCD kicks off.

Thanks so much for the help Craig!

I'm the only one that has worked on this server - I'm using the built in template that can't be modified (if you try to modify it, it tells you to have to copy the template first before changes can be made)

There aren't any alert triggers that I have put into the system for saving the configs...

here's the default template

<!--SolarWinds Network Management Tools-->

<!--Copyright 2007 SolarWinds.Net All rights reserved-->

<Configuration-Management Device="Cisco ASA" SystemOID=" 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.669">

  <Commands>

  <Command Name="RESET" Value="terminal pager 0"/>

  <Command Name="Reboot" Value="reload noconfirm"/>

  <Command Name="EnterConfigMode" Value="config terminal"/>

  <Command Name="ExitConfigMode" Value="quit"/>

  <Command Name="Startup" Value="startup"/>

  <Command Name="Running" Value="running"/>

  <Command Name="DownloadConfig" Value="Show ${ConfigType}"/>

  <Command Name="UploadConfig" Value="${EnterConfigMode}${CRLF}${ConfigText}${CRLF}${ExitConfigMode}"/>

  <Command Name="DownloadConfigIndirect" Value="write net ${StorageAddress}:/${StorageFilename}"/>

  <Command Name="UploadConfigIndirect"/>

  <Command Name="EraseConfig" Value="write erase${CRLF}Yes"/>

  <Command Name="SaveConfig" Value="write memory"/>

  <Command Name="Version" Value="show version"/>

  </Commands>

</Configuration-Management>

I noticed the DownloadConfigIndirect says "write net .........."

Think that's it?

For comparison the IOS template is:

  <Command Name="EraseConfig" Value="write erase${CRLF}Y"/>

  <Command Name="SaveConfig" Value="write memory"/>

  <Command Name="Version" Value="show version"/>

  </Commands>

</Configuration-Management>

The DownloadConfigIndirect is a copy command in IOS
