Launch the Actions: Status Poll Command

This URL is equivalent to the Actions → Polling → Status Poll command in the console.

NNMi calculates the status of devices each time additional information is gathered. You can instruct NNMi to gather real-time data for all the information that NNMi uses to calculate Status for the specified Node. A window displays with a report about which information was gathered. The NNMi administrator determines the list of information gathered by establishing Monitoring configuration settings. See Monitor Network Health for more information.

For a quick-reference list of all URL choices for launching NNMi, see Help → Documentation Library → Integrate NNMi Elsewhere with URLs. The Integrate NNMi Elsewhere with URLs page also contains a link to a list of sample URLs that you can copy/paste as a starting point.

To launch a window that reports the current status for a node, use the following URL:

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd=runTool&tool=statuspoll

<serverName> = the fully-qualified domain name of the NNMi management server (values allowed here are determined by the Enable URL Redirect setting in User Interface Configuration, see Configure the NNMi User Interface)

<portNumber> = the NNMi HTTP port number

After you specify a node, the real-time results of the node's status appear.

To launch the real-time results of a node's status, use the following URL:

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd=runTool&tool=statuspoll&nodename=<x>
