Hello, I have a remote network with routers and switches from which I can poll lots of info like ARP/FDB... Is there a way to add this info in Object Interface view ? In network map (I've tried to add end nodes and change radius : no success) ? I just would like to create raw network maps of connected devices without doing a full discovery. Thanks

Hi! You can create new empty template, open data collection configuration for existing one, select DCIs you want to copy to new template, right-click, select "Copy to other node...", and select new template object as destination. You can modify templates using nxshell and Python scripts. Info about nxshell can be found here: http://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Using_nxshell_to_automate_bulk_operations, and Java API documentation is here: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/javadoc/latest/ (you call Java API from nxshell script). Best regards, Victor

Just checked trace. I've created simple script: for(i = 0; i <= 9; i++) trace(i, "Trace at level " . i); and run it on my test server console (with debug level set to 6). Output is as expected: netxmsd: exec c:\temp\trace.nxsl [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 0 [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 1 [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 2 [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 3 [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 4 [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 5 [20-Jun-2013 12:32:15.828] Trace at level 6 INFO: Script finished with rc=0 netxmsd: Best regards, Victor

Thanks, Waiting for 1.2.8 

Just add this issue to bug tracker so it will not be lost: https://www.radensolutions.com/chiliproject/issues/294. Best regards, Victor

Today we use zenoss to store all the info from our machines. It stores about 3 or 4 years of data which helps us to evaluate trends or forecasts. Zenoss also use a template mechanism to create DCI (and associate a correct  polling interval). For instance, for each interface, we have in/out speed / packets /Errors, you can imagine how much it can be with 48 ports switches (or worst). Zenoss, just resample the data automatically, so you have a hour view, then daily, weekly and yearly. Of course we don't have a seconds resolution when we browse data 2 years old, but it is far enough to see trends. I'm waiting for the snmp table implementation to prepare templates for switches, computers, printers, sensors (I'll share all the template), but storage optimization will be required to limit  the impact. Is it easy to select all the DCI values with date filter and re-compute them ? (ie : take x values, compute average and replace the values by only one ) We could be something like : -take the last week values, and compute average per hour -take the last year and compute average per days (or half day)
