<![CDATA[Triggering configuration poll/template deployment by NXSL]]>Following situation: We have nodes which are only a few minutes online every day, used for running a few scripts. These scripts are deployed by templates in NetXMS and are updated from time to time, but as these nodes are virtually never online for a configuration poll and updated files from the templates get never deployed.

Is there a way to trigger a configuration poll of these nodes by script, using one of the hooks? I studied the NXSL reference but I found nothing helpful.

Thank you!

If I set the custom attribute to 10 minutes every node should get one poll per uptime  🙂

For tunnel nodes, however, conf poll should be scheduled right after tunnel is established, so you can try that.

There is no way to force a poll from NXSL, I've created an issue so at some moment of time this could be added: https://track.radensolutions.com/issue/NX-2480

A bit crazy approach which might currently work - we have an option to redefine poll intervals using custom attributes, e.g:

SysConfig:Objects.ConfigurationPollingInterval

so status poll hook can detect that node comes up and set such custom interval (with value say 60) and conf poll hook would delete this custom attribute.
