How do I add a switch when there are too many interfaces?

Question

Hey all, I'm trying to add a ProCurve switch to my NPM but I'm nearing capacity and the total number of interfaces on the switch puts me over my limit--NPM won't let me add the switch. Is there a way to tell NPM to only see the two interfaces I want to monitor on this switch when it's doing the Discovery? I went through and removed interfaces on some other devices (I'll put the interfaces back when I'm done) but NPM must still be seeing the "removed" interfaces because I'm still over when I do the Discovery. Any help here would be appreciated because I have two more switches I need to add.

Thanks,

Joe B

You should be able to import the node, while not importing any interfaces.  Then go to the node details page and "list resources".  You should be able to select the two interfaces that you want to monitor from the list.  Hope this helps.
