Import Tool XML Questions
-
I would like to import an event / trap xml file for APC products which was located in the mib discussion forum, however before I do I have two questions to better understand the process:
-
I used the export tool and exported default event and trap xml file. Events and traps in this output depict a guid parameter, which is not depicted in the file I received from the mib collection forum, nor is it an option when creating new events or traps in the configurators. Am I correct in assuming the guid is assigned by netxms when you create a new event or trap either through manual process or import process.
-
Am I correct in saying that when importing, event and trap xml data is always the same file and the file name does not matter.
Thanks ....

Hi,
file name doesn't matter. GUID is used to identify duplicates - if you are importing event or trap definition with same GUID server will update existing one instead of creating new element. GUIDs were added to all elements relatively recently, and older export files may not contain them. You should pay attention when importing older files without GUIDs to avoid duplicating entries.
Best regards,
