Protocol Action WMI – Polling IP when parameter is not initialized

Solved130 views3 days agoWMI

Hi Dojo team,

We have a question related to the WMI actions. According to the documentation, the server option can be used to define the host or IP address on which the WMI query is executed. In our case, we pass the ID of the parameter that contain IP address of the server.

What is the expected behavior when this parameter is not initialized? Will the WMI query still be executed, and if so, what will be the target server?

Thanks!

If the parameter has not been initialized since the element startup, the WMI query will be executed against the local DataMiner server (i.e. the server where the connector is running).

If the parameter was set at some point and later cleared without restarting the element, the WMI query will continue to target the last value that was configured.
