Issue/Introduction

What does the Spectrum poll_device.sh and poll_landscape_for_events.sh scripts located in the $SPECROOT/Install-Tools/SRM-Tools directory do?

Environment

Version: Any
Component: Spectrum Report Manager (SRM)

Resolution

poll_device.sh

When this script is run it will reschedule the SRM asset poll cycle of the device. SRM will update all inventory (device attributes ) details. I.e. device model and interface model table content. 

Syntax:

./poll_device.sh -s (http or https)://<SRM Tomcat host> -p <SRM Tomcat port> -u <OC user> -w <OC user password> -m <device model handle>

 

poll_landscape_for_events.sh

When this script is run, it will forcibly trigger the event polling task for a given landscape. It helps to fill gaps in the data on the SRM reporting database from Archive Manager (DDM) database on the SpectroSERVER system.

Syntax:

./poll_landscape_for_events.sh -s (http or https)://<SRM Tomcat host> -p <SRM Tomcat port> -u <OC user> -w <OC user password> -l <landscape name>

To run the scripts:

- Log into the SRM system as the user that owns the Spectrum installation

- If running Windows, start a bash shell by running "bash -login"

- cd to the $SPECROOT/Install-Tools/SRM-Tools directory

- Run the script

There is no need to restart tomcat after running these scripts.
