Hello I am trying to create a query that will scan all nodes for volume utilization and report back if it is being actively monitored. So that someone can go to the nodes and select the volume that have been added and are not being monitored.
You can't filter by device role, but you there is a way. You can create a Network Sonar Discovery and in the option of devices, you can choose to list the specific IPs of the nodes to discovery. Here you can put in the specific IPs of your nodes and the discovery will only look at those devices.
Frankly I'm testing out network sonar discovery for this task. If my SQL job to add known unwanted volumes to the ignore tables fails then I'll be trying this through SDK and filter right in the script.
Thanks,
Christian

Are you hoping to see in Orion when someone adds a new volume to a server, but doesn't manage it in Orion? There's not a way to do that within the program, as the system does not list out volumes that are note being monitored. What you'd have to do is setup a scheduled discovery. The results will show if nodes have changed, which include the discovery of new interfaces or volumes. This would be the best bet within Orion to get something close to this.
Yes, that is exactly what I am trying to do. The problem is that the network discovery put to much load on the network. I only manage a very specific amount of nodes. Is it possible to make the network discovery only run on my specific nodes using their DeviceRole?
Hi bluefunelemental
Could you please give a clue for scripting to auto discovery volumes change? Do you mean SWIS?
