IDP provisioning load balancing

Hi all,

In a system with IDP making the discovery and element provisioning, is it possible to define a load balancing between my agents?

We have a CI Type that will discover around 200 elements and user would like to split the load between the cluster instead of fully loading one DMA first and then the rest of them.

Hi Edson,

Some load balancing is possible but probably not exactly how you are thinking.

It is possible to define that you want to have all elements of a given CI Type to end up on a specific agent (Admin > CI Types > Edit, then Provisioning > DMA in script)

and it is also possible to define that certain IP Address ranges should end up on a specific DMA Agent (Admin > Provisioning)

Thanks João, the user was thinking in something more automatic where the elements discovered by the same CI Type would be equally distributed across the system instead of splitting the CI type and scan ranges to accommodate them.

Unfortunately, I am not aware of an out-of-the-box way of achieving it.
You would either need to use some custom logic together with Process Automation or you would need to request a new feature suggestion to be implemented natively in IDP (see here: https://community.dataminer.services/feature-suggestions/)
