Is there a way to list the retired elements using the command?
There are 4 possible values for nmsState:
71000 = NA (This is the default state, not retired, never un-retired)
71001 = Active (Element has been un-retired)
71002 = Deleted (You should generally not see these)
71003 = Retired (Retired)
So elements which are not retired can be Active or NA.
(1) To list the retired elements with basic nhListElements command:
nhListElements -where "nmsState = Retired" //for retired
nhListElements -where "nmsState != Retired" //for not retired
(2)Use sql statements to query DB:
$NH_HOME/bin/sys/nhisql "select name, n.nms_state from nh_element;" > elements.txt
//71000 is polled and 71003 is retired
$NH_HOME/bin/sys/nhisql "select name, n.nms_state from nh_element where nms_state like 71003;”
$NH_HOME/bin/sys/nhisql "select name, n.nms_state from nh_element where nms_state like 71000;”
