HMScript problems

argis · Post by **argis** » Wed Jun 12, 2019 8:55 pm

I'm trying to change some test parameters using HMScript but I'm having trouble with some of them.
Is it possible to change SNMP profiles and status processing parameters using test groups? I'm trying to use the following but I'm having no success.
I don't get any error messages and the userlog shows it executed without errors.

Code: Select all

SetCurrentFolder Root\Servers\Server1
ReplaceTestParam _AllFreeSpace Profile "public v2" Custom_v2

SetCurrentFolder Root\Servers
IncludeSubFolders yes
SetTestParam _AllPerfCounter UnknownIsBad no
SetTestParam _AllPerfCounter WarningIsBad no
SetTestParam _AllPerfCounter UseWarning yes
SetTestParam _AllPerfCounter WarningExpr "'%SuggestedReply_Integer%' < 86400"

I think there are no such parameters.
Where did you find parameters like UnknownIsBad, UseWarning, WarningExpr?
May be there is mistake somewhere in the manual?

As I see manual lists the following parameters
- timeout
- retries
- username
- password
- comment
- commentlineNN
- testinterval
- AlertProfile
- AlertProfile2
- Schedule
- TestBy
- Threshold
- ThresholdUp
- Threshold2
- ThresholdDown
- usecommonlog
- reversealert
- unknownasbad
- warningasbad
- syncmastercounters
- syncmasterstatus

I exported a device that was working the way I wanted it, and assumed everything was a valid parameter name. Looks like I assumed a bit too much.

What's the quickest way to edit a large number of devices in a case like this?

May be just change SNMP profile settings without changing test settings?

Also you may export test settings into text file (menu File->Export..), open this file in any text editor, Find&Replace parameter you need, add ImportMode = Modify line on top, then import test settings (menu File->Import..)

Regarding UnknownAsBad, WarningAsBad options and expressions - you may use HMScript or GUI (select set of tests, click Edit button, modify settings, click Ok)

Thanks Alex, I'd missed that option but it looks like exactly what I need.
