On the Motif interface, a smartset is empty (blue) until you drill into it the first time, and then it is populated. An exception is netviewd. At startup, netviewd, if it has a r/w map, will populate any new smartsets as if they were opened. Java console user's won't see it's contents until it is populated.

If you have already drilled into the smartset on the motif interface and nothing is there, then nothing met the criteria. But there would have been a message about that in the collection editor when you created the smartset.

activated?  that seems to be the issue, I was creating new smart sets and seeing nothing in in them.  So how do I acitvate?

No restart of nvcorrd, or any other daemon, required when creating SmartSets. SmartSets are dynamic collections, so rules that are running will see all additions/removals from a SmartSet as they occur.

However, when creating a *new* SmartSet, it does need to be activated using the NetView interface.

do you need to restart nvcorrd if you use the smartset editor to do that?


thanks!

Look at the object info for a node. Nodes don't have a field 'IP Address'. That's an attribute of an interface. So you are getting a list of Selection Names of interfaces or Networks.

Nodes do have a field called 'SNMP ipAddress'.

[NV-L] Making a smart set based on ip's







I tried making a smartset based on ip's:

nvUtil e '("IP Address" ~ "19.39.*.*")'

But the results that I get are not nodes but something else:
sdg100344q3b1.itek.ford.com:19.39.25.75
sdg100g3tfmb1.itek.ford.com:19.39.40.103
SEP001380AD917D.itek.ford.com:19.39.50.110

How do I make a smartset, based on a range of ip's, AND get actual nodes in it? Thanks in advance
