Some fields are not being populated or have an incorrect results using Python - API

Manilyn_Ramos

Hi,

I've noticed that the CPU and Memory fields have NULL values when I tried adding nodes using API - Python.
I already tried to declare these fields in the code but the still have an issue

props = {

            'IPAddress': ip_address,

            'Caption': node_name,

            'EngineID': 1,

            'ObjectSubType': 'SNMP',

            'SNMPVersion': 2,

            'Community': 'public',

            'Allow64BitCounters': True,

            'DynamicIP': False,

            'SysObjectID': '',

            'DNS': '',

            'MachineType': '',

            'Vendor': '',

            'RediscoveryInterval': 30,

            'PollInterval': 120,

            'ChildStatus':  1,

            'StatCollection': 10,

            'NodeDescription': '',

            'MemoryUsed': -2, --> after a couple for polling/ rediscover the value is still -2

            'TotalMemory': -2,  --> after a couple for polling/ rediscover the value is still -2

            'External': '',

            'CPULoad': 1,  --> after a couple for polling/ rediscover the value is still 1. Note: the sample device I used is also monitored in our Prod and the CPULoad is not 1

            'Location': ''

}
