Hi Philip, By default, within a C# code block, lists of primary key/display key mappings are cached for performance reasons. To prevent caching of table key mappings, add the following statement to your...
View QuestionMy recommendation would be to use DataMiner Correlation to achieve this functionality, by making use of the Persistent event. By result, you can check if alarms meet specific conditions and execute an...
View QuestionHey Andre, Low-code apps are stored into the c:\Skyline DataMiner\Applications. Every folder corresponds to a low-code app, and the name of the folder corresponds to guid that you'll find into the url....
View QuestionHi Carlos, For CU packages you can skip in between versions as long as you stay on the correct main version. E.g. don't apply a 10.0 CU1 on a 9.6 CU5. So yes, it is possible to upgrade your DMS directly...

View QuestionHi Ahmed, all recent QActions in connectors/drivers are written in C#, which is why the documentation also mostly covers that specific section. QActions do support JScript, which is different from JavaScript....
View QuestionHi Arun, What is the sliding window size that you have set on this system for real-time trending? I notice that you're looking already some time in the past, potentially the real-time trending window...
View QuestionHey James, The easiest way is probably to connect with the SLNetClientTest tool onto the DMA, then Advanced > Apps > DataMiner Object Model. That brings you to a page where you can see the different...
View QuestionHi Jason, Removing booking information and related components such as service definitions etc. is surely not a common action to be executed. Typically, this would only be executed on test systems, i.e....
View QuestionI believe it is sufficient to add the allowed MAC range with * into the Normal severity of the alarm template and set a * into another severity. By result, if a MAC matches the normal severity, it will...
View QuestionUnlinked resources are SRM resources that provide specific capacities and capabilities, but are not yet linked to existing instances of the device or product. Typically, the actual instances only get created/activated...
View QuestionDataMiner SRM has a concept of capacities and capabilities to manage resources correctly. Based on the booking profile information that the user enters, DataMiner will check that information against the...

View QuestionHi Carlos, this information is stored into the information event that is created when calling for a DataMiner restart. The username and message is displayed into the information event.
View QuestionHi Sergio, Just an idea, but you could try to set IE or Chromium as Web Browser Engine on the Cube > System Center > System settings > Plugins page, and check if that would make any difference....
View QuestionHi Tiago, The Automation Engine provides a SpectrumPreset class, which contains a method to set the center frequency. So, you could have the automation script first reading the frequency from a specific...
View QuestionHi Jeyaram, A first commonly used approach to have a better view on timeout statistics is using an 'Alarm Distribution Graph' in the Reports & Dashboards module. This can be filtered on timeout severity,...
View QuestionHi Steve, I believe that if you extend the url with '?embed=true', it will remove the headers. It is actually designed to be embedded in a Visio or webpage. Maybe that could be a help? More information...
View QuestionHi Bruno, DVEs are exported from a table that resides in the main element. That table has a column with option 'element' which will contain the ElementID that gets assigned to the exported DVE when...
View QuestionIndeed, the Config >> Events page on the Booking Manager allows you to add any custom event that should be executed during, or even outside the window of the bookings. Into the configuration...
View QuestionIt might be useful to understand the exact reason of exporting bookings. Indeed, there could be various options to export a snapshot at a specific moment in time, such as DMS Automation Script, DMS Reports,...
View QuestionHi Shaddad, As Toon mentions, the correlation engine is an excellent option for counting events and triggering or escalating an alarm when the number of occurrences exceeds a predefined threshold. Then...
View QuestionHey Mark, If the PSU reports an issue, it will be shown into the Alarm Table, available on the page 'Alarms' of the element. An example: The 'Cause' column into the alarm template contains a drop-down...
View QuestionMieke, Also adding, in the SRM Booking Manager, it is also possible to define properties which could be configured to be added by default for each booking. These properties can be requested through the...
View QuestionHi Carlos, I believe that the legacy dashboards are stored in the user settings, and can be found in C:\Skyline DataMiner\Users\SharedUserSettings\Dashboard. There is indeed no easy way to export and...
View QuestionIntroduced in 9.5.12, a custom property on an element, service or view has a option called 'Update alarms on value changed'. This is by default checked, so set to true, but can be disabled. When disabled,...
View QuestionHey Julio, any chance that you could elaborate on what the actual purpose is of retrieving these resources, and in what specific context you will use this information? In case of an SRM environment, I...

View QuestionI would recommend to use 'Extended conditional shape manipulation actions'. Please find more information on combining multiple conditions on DataMiner Help. The examples section does also provide some...
View QuestionAlso adding, it might be an option to have this completely managed by our IDP suite (Inventory, Discovery and Provisioning), as it is available on the platform and is designed to not only discover and...
View QuestionHey Michael, Not an expert on this matter, but based on this article, it will depend on the element timeout time and how the other HTTP sessions are answered. The article describes a case where the element...
View QuestionHi Alexander, Could a ParameterSummary shape be a possible solution? It is typically used to group multiple parameters of different elements, so might be more difficult to group on the element alarm state....
View QuestionHi Edson, As far as I know, it is surely possible to use an ArrayOptions tag with an index different from 0. The index attribute defines which column contains the primary key. The column containing the...
View QuestionHi Jeyaram, The general page when right-clicking the element will indeed show some information, such as when and by who the element was created, modified, alarm and trend template was assigned, and its...
View QuestionHi Robbie, Not sure about this, but I believe a USB gets mapped to a COM number on the server when plugged in. That is also visible in the Device Manager when plugging in the USB. The COM is then also...
View QuestionHi Carlos, For the currently supported releases of DataMiner, so including DataMiner 10, it is still possible to use a MySQL or MS-SQL database instead of Cassandra. You can also find more information...

View QuestionHi Stijn, From a solution perspective, it might also be interesting to know that we have recently introduced a LoggerUtil tool and LogHelper API, which allows applications and solutions to read/write...
View QuestionIndeed, I notice the same behavior when trying this internally. Cube also adds a log line with the message 'Value does not fall within the expected range'. I'm not aware of a possibility to escape this,...
View QuestionIt could be important to understand the reason why you want to retrieve information from the database tables. DataMiner offers many different interfaces to retrieve stored data, and our recommendations...
View QuestionI believe it does depend on where you Cassandra instance will be hosted. If you are running Cassandra on a different host or linux server, it could be different. However, for a simple migration from MySQL...
View QuestionI don't believe we have recommendations from our side, as key is to meet the specifications set in the DataMiner Requirements doc. Actually, a project that we're working on right now, will have multiple...
View QuestionHi Rajesh, You could use the VdxPage option to do this, as it allows you to show a page from a visio on a different view. If you e.g. would like to show the Channels//CH1 of the view Overview on the...
View QuestionHi Gelber, I'm not aware of a possibility to add an SRM system function file without restarting the DataMiner Agent. Any other SRM function can be uploaded through the Protocols & Templates App, but...
