I'm trying to mute alerts by powershell , i'm able to connect solarwinds but not able to get nodeID.

i tried many times by changing the query in below script . but no use...please assist me

$serverName = "abcdef"
$solarWindsServer = "SOLARWINDS"
# Define your SolarWinds server and credentials
$username = "a-v-cds"
$password = ConvertTo-SecureString "Password" -AsPlainText -Force
$Credential = New-Object -Typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -Argumentlist ($username, $password)

# Connect to the SolarWinds server

try{

$swisConnection = Connect-Swis -Hostname $solarWindsServer -Credential $credential

$query = "SELECT NodeID FROM Orion.Nodes WHERE SysName LIKE '%$serverName'"

$nodeId = (Get-SwisData -SwisConnection $swisConnection -Query)

$now =[DateTime]::Now
$later =$now.AddDays(1)
Write-Host $now
$nodeId = @( $nodeId |% {[string]$_} )

Without testing, may want like Caption or displayname or something over sysname

Also, you usually pull the URI back not the nodeID for most of the SWIS powershell stuff

Mounika

$serverName = "abcdef"
$solarWindsServer = "SOLARWINDS"
# Define your SolarWinds server and credentials
$username = "a-v-cds"
$password = ConvertTo-SecureString "Password" -AsPlainText -Force
$Credential = New-Object -Typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -Argumentlist ($username, $password)

# Connect to the SolarWinds server

try{

$swisConnection = Connect-Swis -Hostname $solarWindsServer -Credential $credential
# Check if the connection was successful

# Your code here

$query = "SELECT NodeID FROM Orion.Nodes WHERE SysName LIKE '$serverName'"

$nodeId = (Get-SwisData -SwisConnection $swisConnection -Query $query)
Write-Host "uri: $nodeId"
$now =[DateTime]::Now
$later =$now.AddDays(1)
Write-Host $now
Write-Host $nodeId
$nodeId = @( $nodeId |% {[string]$_} )

Invoke-SwisVerb $swisConnection Orion.AlertSuppression SuppressAlerts @($nodeId, [DateTime]::UtcNow) | Out-Null

Replace this part of your script

try{

$swisConnection = Connect-Swis -Hostname $solarWindsServer -trusted

$entityUris = Get-SwisData $swis "SELECT Uri FROM Orion.Nodes WHERE SysName LIKE'$serverName'"
$entityUris = @( $entityUris |% {[string]$_} )

$now =[DateTime]::Now
$later =$now.AddDays(1)
Write-host "Muting node from $now until $later"
Invoke-SwisVerb $swis Orion.AlertSuppression SuppressAlerts @($entityUris, $now, $later ) | Out-Null

}
catch{
Write-Host "Error: $_"
}
