Hello shoole!

If you visit the SDK section of the site: Orion SDK there is a lot of information on adding nodes, interfaces, volumes, and assigning SAM apps and even group management all through powershell.

Adding a node is not too hard. If you've downloaded the SDK you'll get a set of example files. One of these is a CRUD.addnode.ps1 file that gives you an example of how to directly add a node into Orion. I tend to do a bit of cheating and run a discovery against nodes I want to add and then use the discover results tables to populate what I need to add a node. I can then run a stored procedure to remove all the extra discoveries at a later time or just delete them manually if needed.
