A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Node Form: Custom Polled Instances Tab

Tip The Custom Polled Instance Form provides details about the selected Polled Instance.

For information about each tab: See Also

(NNMi Advanced - Global Network Management feature) Any Custom Polled Instances are not sent from a Regional Manager (NNMi management server) to the Global Manager. From the Global Manager, use Actions → Open from Regional Manager to see the list of Custom Polled Instances on the Regional Manager.

Basics Attributes
Attribute	Description
Node	Name of the topology node from which the Custom Poller Policy information is being collected. This is the current value in the NNMi database for the Name attribute of the node. The value could be a DNS name, a MIB-II sysName, or an address (depending on how your NNMi administrator configured the discovery process).
State	The State of the Custom Polled Instance as determined by any Thresholds (High State / Low State value) or Comparison Maps (State Mapping = the NNMi administrator assigns a State value for each possible Polled Instance value) configured for the current Custom Poller Collection's MIB Expression. Possible State values for a Polled Instance (Threshold = High State/Low State; or Comparison Map = State Mapping) are: Normal Warning Minor Major Critical Note The most severe Threshold High State or Low State value or Comparison Map State Mapping value returned from the Polled Instances for a Custom Node Collection becomes the Custom Node Collection Status.
MIB Variable	Represents the MIB Expression that NNMi polls according to configuration settings. Additional information associated with the MIB Variable includes the MIB Expression Name and any Threshold settings configured for the Custom Poller Collection. Click the Lookup icon and select Show Analysis or Open to display more information about the MIB Variable. See MIB Variable Form for more information about the MIB Variable attribute.
MIB Instance	This attribute contains the multiple filtered instances for the MIB Expression. Each instance value identifies a row in the MIB table. If a MIB expression includes multiple MIB Variables that have multiple instances, each instance value that is valid across all MIB Variables for a node is listed here. If NNMi is unable to find the same instance for all MIB Variables in the expression, a Polled Instance is not created. This is because NNMi cannot correctly evaluate a MIB Expression with missing values. If Polled Instances are not created as expected, check the Custom Node Collection view for Discovery State and Discovery State Information values.
Last State Change Value	The value from the MIB Expression that caused the State to change. Note A value of null indicates that a value was unavailable or an error occurred while evaluating the MIB Expression.
State Last Modified	The date and time the Polled Instance was last modified.
