RE: [nv-l] dump devices script?

That's also a good avenue for information in report format.  Coming from an HP NNM environment where most of these utilities are not standard release, this is fantastic information.  

Thanks to all

Try /usr/OV/conf/nvdbtools/nvdbformat
 
You can create a report format with selection criteria. Works like a hundred bucks.
 
If you use it on solaris do a ulimit -s unlimited or it will core dump

Karl: 

ovobjprint is probably you best approach to view the contents of the object database.  You may try writing a PERL script that parses the contents of a file created by running ovobjprint.  This script should parse each line looking for the following "Selection Name" and "isRouter" (if TRUE).  Sorry, I don't have anything to offer as far as a script, but this may shed some light. 

Hope this helps.

Hi list,

I've been searching around to see if there is a script available to dump
the contents of the object db to a flat file to save me starting from
scratch?  I need to filter to only include switches/routers (and maybe
servers one day) and only select a few fields for each device.

If anyone has a script that is post-able (directly if necessary), it
would be appreciated.  If not, I'm working on the basis that parsing the
output from ovobjprint is the best approach (no RIM / sql database I'm
afraid) - does anyone have a different view?

Any pointers much appreciated

Thanks

K
