Hi Dojo,
In v.9, when exporting elements I'm not always able to save all the required credentials for each element - is this by design or am I doing something in an incorrect way?
What's the behaviour in v10?
In my current use case I'm dealing with full views built on a staging system and then imported with the related components (visio, protocols, templates, services) in production. This seems to keep pw & id, despite a few exceptions found with older protocols.
Different case: when adjusting the capacity in production (due to a hybrid cluster not fully migrated to Cassandra yet), I tend to avoid the DELT function when source and destination DMA have a different DB type. I can get some support with CSV export (SNMP community is in the CSV - but I'm still testing with SNMPv3) - what about http login when required?
Also in the unlikely event of a temporary timeout between DMAs when performing a DELT migration of a few elements, what's the expected outcome in v10?
Alberto,
The export to CSV file has limited information and it is not the intention (or secure) to handle credentials via this operation.
For your use case targeting SNMPv3 I would recommend using the credentials library (see Managing predefined sets of credentials for SNMP authentication in the DataMiner help). This way you will have your credentials GUID in the exported CSV file which can be re-ingested accordingly.
Many thanks, Rene, this is exactly what I was looking for!
