Add node with snmpv3 credentials

so some more information on this issue after some testing if I omit any of these column from the property bag then you get the following error

Error : In property SNMPV3AuthKey. Reason : SNMPV3AuthKey is not provided in the input. It is Mandatory.

So it looks like we might have a breaking change in the NPM 12 version that on the one had expects SNMPv3 values if you set the property bag up to be v3 but then doesn't know what todo with the data when you provide it.

This seems to be a bug in NPM 12. I reproduced it easily and was not able to find a direct workaround. I put it our bug tracker as issue CORE-6828.

A more elaborate workaround would be to use the discovery API to add the nodes instead of creating instances of Orion.Nodes directly.

Thanks for the prompt response wonder how long this kind of issue takes to get fixed in core. Time to figure out how to convert https://github.com/solarwinds/orionsdk-python/blob/master/samples/discover_one_node.py to powershell and then find out what i do with it once it's discovered unless you have some examples of that.

I added a powershell sample for discovery that should give you a head start: https://github.com/solarwinds/OrionSDK/blob/master/Samples/PowerShell/DiscoverSnmpV3Node.ps1

I'm getting the same error while running Set-SwisObject. That doesn't make sense at all.

What version of NPM are you using?

12.1

The error from NPM 12 should be fixed in 12.1. Could you post more details about exactly what error you are seeing and what triggers it?

Update SNMP Community string using PowerShell

This is the issue basically in more detail.

Unfortunately this seems like a bug in product, already tracked under CORE-6263. I was able to reproduce it easily.

We have fixed this behaviour for create operation but not for update operation.

The workaround is not to update Community field using SDK scripts but that's not very usefull :-(.
