Re: [nv-l] Netview Server Upgrade

[Paul <pstroud@bellsouth.net>]

It would be easier to use "nvUtil e 'isManager=TRUE'".
You can use this at anytime to check what would be
a member of a smart set. You can even use && and ||
and get funky with it:

nvUtil e '"SNMP sysDescr"~Linux && isNode=TRUE'

This would give you all nodes that have a system description
that includes Linux.

Fun for the day, try it yourself, amaze your friends!
