What would be the best practice approach on automatic management of DataMiner service objects?

My example scenario:

I have a DataMiner system which hosts approximately 500 DataMiner service objects. These service objects are all linked to the same Service Template object which was used to initially deploy these services in the platform. I’m now looking for an easy way to keep my services up to date as they change ever more often. Ideally we would just define what the changes are in a database file (Excel) which can easily be maintained by the operations team and these updates would be processed on a daily base so the monitoring system automatically adjusts itself based on this database file contents.

How would I best approach this implementation in the DataMiner system?

Hi Jeroen,

You could have a generic protocol that collects information from a database and/or data file.

This data can be presented in a table.
The table then, can be used to trigger the creation or update of services in your DataMiner system through a service template.
