Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| 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. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Name
nnmloadseeds.sh — load discovery node seed information
SYNOPSIS
nnmloadseeds.sh
-f seedFile [-t tenant] |
-n seeds [-t tenant] |
-list [-format LIST|TEXT|CSV|XML] [-fields name,tenant,results,modified,notes]
[-u <username> -p <password>]
[-jndiHost <hostName> Default: localhost]
[-jndiPort <port> Default: 1099]
DESCRIPTION
nnmloadseeds.sh allows
discovery seeds to be loaded using command line arguments (-n option)
or from a text file (-f option) or listed (-list option). A seed is a device
that you want NNM to use as a starting point for the spiral
discovery process. Seed values are either IP addresses or
host names. When using the -n option the seeds are entered
on the command line, separated by white space.
Seeds are always added to NNM even if they do not support SNMP.
The -f option accepts a file with a single entry specified per line. Each line has the following format:
IPAddress|HostName, "Optional Tenant Name or UUID" # (optional comment to help identify the node, if desired)
Where:
IPAddress = the IP address of the node you wish to add.
HostName = the host name of the node you wish to add.
Tenants can be optionally specified using either the tenant name or tenant UUID. The tenant specification must be contained within quotation marks. The node discovered from the seed will be assigned to the specified tenant. If no tenant is specified, the node will be assigned to the default tenant.
Comments can be deliminated with a # character.
Additionally, you can use INCLUDE-FILE filename to include other seedfiles.
If you specify the -t option, the tenant you specify will be used for all nodes passed in via the -n option, or all nodes in the seed file specified with the -f option. If you use -t and -f and your seed file contains seeds with tenants specified, all seeds with specified tenants will be rejected as invalid seeds.
Note that you should set up the SNMP configuration for the devices being loaded before running this command.
Parameters
The nnmloadseeds.sh command recognizes the following parameters and options:
-fseedFile-
Specify a text file to read the seeds from.
Note: The directory and filename of the seed file must be accessible for non-root users.
-nseeds-
Specify seeds to load directly from the command line, with each seed separated by a space.
-list-
Lists all seeds loaded by NNMi for discovery. The utility uses the standard formats defined for other NNMi tools: TEXT, CSV, XML, or LIST. The fields for the seed data can be limited by specifying: name, tenant, results, modified, and/or notes. These are pseudonyms for the column headers shown in the NNMi UI.
-ttenant name or UUID-
Specify the tenant to be used for all seeds being loaded.
-u <username>-
Supply the NNMi administrator username to run the script.
-p <password>-
Supply the NNMi administrator password to run the script.
-jndiHost <serverName>-
The server JNDI host; default is
localhost. -jndiPort <port>-
The server JNDI port; default is
1099.
EXAMPLES
Load a list of devices as seeds:
nnmloadseeds.sh -n mimcisco8540 15.2.112.22
Load seed for a node using its fully qualified name with username and password:
nnmloadseeds.sh -u username -p password -n mimcisco8540.superpoller3.mim
Load seeds from a file name that is named seeds_to_load.txt:
nnmloadseeds.sh -f /tmp/seeds_to_load.txt
Load seed for a node using its fully qualified name and specific tenant assignment:
nnmloadseeds.sh -n mimcisco8540.superpoller3.mim -t Customer1
Load seeds from a file name that is named seeds_to_load.txt and assign all seeds to a given tenant:
nnmloadseeds.sh -f /tmp/seeds_to_load.txt -t Customer2
List all loaded seeds in CSV format showing name and results of the seed discovery:
nnmloadseeds.sh -list -format CSV -fields name,results
