Hi Dojo,
when opening the migrate dialogue
(as described and shown here
and here
https://community.dataminer.services/video/agents-migrating-elements-from-one-dma-to-another/)
we can no longer see the three columns for weight, change and polling. They used to be there a few months ago, and since then we did not perform any updates nor did we change any kind of configuration related to this (at least nothing that we are aware of).
Any idea how to make these columns reappear?
Thanks a lot! 🙂
Hi Nils,
You spotted this very well!
The information in those columns were actually inaccurate and therefore not reliable. That’s why we choose to remove those columns for the time being.
The fact that you now have this new version without upgrading the server, is related to the fact that Cube can now upgrade from dataminer.services independent from the server.

Hi Nils,
It is indeed quite challenging to get an accurate load one element is causing because there are so many variables in the equation. Polling traffic is indeed relevant, but also the processing load of the data coming in and how much trending and alarming is active, etc.
In general you could state that the more metrics (=single parameters + table cells) an element has, the heavier it would be. And the easiest to get a nice overview of all your elements in a DMS with the number of metrics and even more, is to use the DataMiner Size tool:

Hi Bert,
nice, we will look into that. Much appreciated!
Best
Nils
The documentation has been updated! https://github.com/SkylineCommunications/dataminer-docs/pull/2816
Hi Bert,
alrighty, fair enough. Thank you very much for the explanation!
Is there any other way to estimate which elements are causing lots of polling traffic? This seemed to be a nice way to get an idea if some elements/integrations are producing lots of load/traffic on the system (at least in theory)…
