Would like to see NPM "custom property" fields to have the ability to be a dynamic (calculated) value.
Example:
SiteCode = LEFT({NodeName}, 5)
We have a device naming convention that uses the first 5 characters as the site code. Using a dynamic method like this, we could easily group nodes by that custom property. I know Solarwinds has the ability to do a dynamic group, but using that method, we would have to create ~300 groups; 1 for each site code. Ex. Group “TXHOU” : Query (Caption begins with TXHOU). Also, using that method doesn’t allow for us to use it for displaying “Group by” value; whereas a dynamic custom property would.
