Good afternoon team,
They could tell us if there is a way to extract data / tables from specific devices that are kept in the local dataminer database, either by means of a script or something similar.
Our dataminer version is 10.0.0.0-9517-CU6.
Regards
It 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 will always be to use these interfaces if any data needs to be consulted through any third-party application.

Hi Javier,
I totally recommend to start using the New Dashboards app to look for specific information from Dataminer, a very useful tool is the queries, so you can enroll to the course and start playing around with it.
Thanks.
Hi Javier,
Another options (from DataMiner 10.2.0/10.1.1 onwards) it is possible to offload data to a file in the local system cache folder instead of to an offload database:
You can find more information in the DataMiner Help:
The CSV files are stored in C:\Skyline DataMiner\System Cache\Offload
Edgar & Javier - Going into a distributed DB to try and query a consolidated list of elements and or parameters may poses its challenges.
Have you considered using our WebServices (DataMiner Web Services API reference guide) or generating such reports directly in our Dashboards (DataMiner Dashboards - DataMiner Dojo)module? I would strongly advise considering this route.
A similar use case is the combination of "Profiles" as Mediation layer, in combination with Dashboards.
Let's say you have different network devices such as Alcatel & Cisco Switches and you want to display information from both vendors in the same dashboard.
I forgot to mention that you could also use the web service API:
