Chris,
the command you're looking for is:
/usr/OV/bin/nvmaputil.sh --unmanage-interface
ip_address1 ... ip_addressN
Get help with:
nvmaputil.sh -h

Subject
| [nv-l] not polling interface
during certain hours |
|
Greetings,
overview: We have servers on 2 specific subnets with dual interface
cards on them. One of these cards is used for nightly backups. These
interfaces during specific hours are known to flood the network with traffic,
making the polling,pinging ability of NV make false reports of them being
down. We also have switch analyzer running as well.
We would like to not poll/ping the specific interface of these servers
during these hours. But would still want the other interface polled/ping'd.
Is there a way to not poll the interface while still polling the
other interface. I saw some comments on the list server about putting
the devices into a smartset and running a script against it with xnmsnmpconf.
But that would iliminate polling of the entire device. We only
want to NOT poll the specified interface. Other then creating a ruleset
which would still have to process these interfaces' events, is there a
way to stop polling?
Thought: Is there a way to execute the unmanage function via CLI
that i could script and at the beginning of backup time simply set those
interfaces to unmanaged. Then another script to manage them
again when the time has expired?
Thank you
Chris Petrina
