HI,
I have created a UnDP poller that should be added to BGP devices.
So I have a script which collects the BGP talking devices. Now is it possible to add my poller to all these devices in the list through SDK?
No, this is not currently possible.
Did we find any luck in getting the UnDP assigned to a particular group of nodes ?
maybe I'm missing something here? We use a Python script to assign UnDP pollers, using swis.create with Orion.NPM.CustomPollerAssignmentOnNode.
We used this Thwack thread as a guideline: Creating a CustomPollerAssignmentOnNode returns: 400 Client Error: Sequence contains no elements
This is an example of a script i use to manage pollers in bulk
<#------------- CONNECT TO SWIS -------------#>
# load the snappin if it's not already loaded (step 1)
if (!(Get-PSSnapin | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq "SwisSnapin" })) {
Add-PSSnapin "SwisSnapin"
}
#define target host and credentials
$hostname = 'localhost'
#$user = "admin"
#$password = "password"
# create a connection to the SolarWinds API
#$swis = connect-swis -host $hostname -username $user -password $password -ignoresslerrors
$swis = Connect-Swis -Hostname $hostname -Trusted
<#------------- ACTUAL SCRIPT -------------#>
# get a list of nodes that should have this poller
$nodes = get-swisdata $swis @"
SELECT n.nodeid--,n.caption, n.vendor
from orion.nodes n
where n.vendor='Cisco' and n.caption like '%edge%asr%'
"Nodes:"
$nodes
#get a list of UNDP pollers to assign
$pollers = get-swisdata $swis @"
select cp.CustomPollerID--, uniquename
from orion.npm.CustomPollers cp
where cp.UniqueName like 'tested'
"Pollers:"
$pollers.Guid
foreach ($node in $nodes) {
#check if node already has each poller
foreach ($poller in $pollers) {
$check = get-swisdata $swis @"
select cpon.AssignmentName, cpon.uri--, cpon.NodeID ,cpon.CustomPollerID
from orion.npm.CustomPollerAssignmentOnNode cpon
where cpon.NodeID = '$node'
and cpon.CustomPollerID = '$poller'
if ($check) {
" Already Assigned, $($check.AssignmentName) "
# To remove pollers you can use the next two lines
# Remove-SwisObject $swis $check.uri
# "Deleting $($check.AssignmentName)"
else {
" Creating poller "
New-SwisObject $swis Orion.NPM.CustomPollerAssignmentOnNode @{NodeID=$node;CustomPollerID=$poller}

That reply was in 2013, probably wasn't available back then
