Hello,
I am brand new to the SAM API. Is it possible to create nodes by running a script (bash, ideally) on a remote host? Please give me a general idea of how to get started.
Thanks,
Brandt
Because this took me hours to figure out: log into a Windows server on the same network as your Orion server. Download the Orion SDK here. See two PDFs in "C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion SDK\Documentation" for documentation. In "C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion SDK\Samples" there are samples of interfacing with the API using various scripting languages. Powershell seems to be the most developed/favored. Remember to append this line to the powershell samples:
Add-PsSnapin SwisSnapin
Please take a look at the Orion SDK which can now be found here.
There is a sample powershell script that shows how to add nodes to Orion.
