Bulk import ICMP nodes

Hello Thwackers,

I thought I would share my rough and ready PowerShell script which helps when you have a known list of ICMP devices to import.

This is very useful if like me, you are going through an onboarding process from one system to another.

The script takes input from a CSV file and creates ICMP polled nodes from the data. It supports setting custom properties across all rows, and custom properties per row.

Just change the parameters between lines 8 and 35 with values that are appropriate for your installation. if you are using custom properties, add them at lines 94 and 158. Comments in the script will guide you.

It should also help as a springboard for further development with the API.

You will need to download the Orion SDK to make use of the SwisPowerShell module.

Enjoy!
