RE: [nv-l] Smartset length

["Evans, Bill" <Bill.Evans@hq.doe.gov>]

Try an end run. 

·       Define a symbol in a new file in /usr/OV/fields
o       + cat DOE.fields
o       /*****************************************
o        ****      DOE Application Hosting    ****
o        *****************************************/
o      
o       Field "isAHEServer" {
o               Type Boolean;
o               Flags   capability;
o       }

·       set the new field by creating a file xxx.import with the content of your object names
o       condor#cat AHE-Servers.import
o       IP Hostname,isAHEServer
o       acts.doe.gov,TRUE
o       applix.doe.gov,TRUE

·       Process the file with "nvdbimport -f  AHE-Servers.import"

·       Create your SmartSet with the rule "isAHEServer=True"

Note that there is already a field isSNMPSupported present.

Subject: [nv-l] Smartset length

Hi List,

When I try to create a smartset (subset from ALL_SNMP_Capable) with object

list as attribute, I got the following error message:

"The rule for this smartset exceeds the maximum length. Please respecify the

rule."

When I reduce the devices to about 40 in a list, it accepted. How can create

a smartset (with object list) for more than 100 devices?

Regards,

David
