Network Management System (NMS)

Have the option to automatically update Device Name if actual device name changes

When a device name changes, it does not update the SevOne NMS to reflect the new name. We have multiple use cases where the technician will update the name after the discovery is done. We are expected to reflect the changes for device name both on...

Improve SNMP walk API endpoint in SevOne NPM

There should be a v3 API endpoint to run a SNMP walk command from any peer to a device. Enhancing /api/v3/metadata/devices/snmpwalk might work for this purpose. Currently, it does not take a peer ID as an argument. The ability to specify a specifi...

Configuration option to preserve ifOperStatus data polled during ifLastChange updates

In the current implementation, SevOne discards all polled data for a given polling interval whenever it detects an update to ifLastChange. Although this behaviour is designed to maintain data consistency, it introduces a significant limitation for...

Expand WMI Poller's functionality to other WMI Classes

Currently, the WMI Poller is only able to poll and handle Win32_PerfFormattedData. This is extremely limited for complex environments where a given device has multiple instances of a process with key metrics, but the WMI Poller and the Process Pol...

"Di Device Summary" Customize or Disable

The "Device Summary" option works fine in a "small environment". When there are thousands of devices / thousands of objects for a device this functionality is incredibly painful. Either it should be able to be customized or disabled completely. Fo...

Support for GCP PubSub in addition to Kafka on SevOne Data Publisher

We would like to make use of the performance data exposure using a message bus for northbound data transfer . It is much cheaper to use Google PubSub instead of a managed kafka instance . We would like IBM to develop an SDK/gRPC based PubSub conne...

Device Groups and Object Groups, currently set to a static amount of 50 per page. It would be nice to change that to 1000 like you can on the Device Manager page.

We have thousands of devices and millions of objects, and we need to be able to scroll down quickly through the list instead of waiting and waiting for each page to load.

In the Cluster Master, on the Peers tab, it would be nice to be able to save the column configuration you choose.

I have to move the columns around to see the object volume next to the peer names. I'll make device move changes and have to refresh to see the new amounts, but the columns always jump back to the way they were initially. It would be nice to save ...

There should be a v3 API endpoint to run a ping command from any peer to a device

The ability to specify a specific peer to ping an arbitrary device by id, name or management address would be helpful for process automation, particularly for very large scale SevOne clusters. It's not clear what part of the API schema it should b...

Flow Reporting - Global Report Filters

We require the ability for an admin to create a complex flow filter or like, and make it available to any user running a flow report. So we want to see traffic between this "complex rule" and "another complex rule" where a complex rule for example...
