Hello,

I’m working on cleaning up my device inventory and have run into a few issues that must have solutions; however, I’ve been unable to find them.

I’ve added 40-50 devices to a custom group I’ve created but they still exist in the “With Scan Errors” section. Is there a way to take devices out of this list?

I guess where I’m going with this question is can I bulk move 40-50 devices into the “I don’t want hassle-free monitoring–I’ll manage this device myself. Like a caveman.” section and at the same time stop them showing up in the “With Scan Errors” report or list?


Are there scripting or command-line options available for Inventory Management tasks such as renaming, entering details, or adding to new groups?

I honestly do not know of a way to do that in bulk. As far as I knew you did have to go through them one by one if you want them not not show up in the scan errors section and click the manage myself option. I wonder if anytone else knows any different.

There’s a kind of loophole/cheat option. You can use the Import Devices CSV script to update all the devices your having trouble with to manually managed devices.

You’ll want to export the information (name, serial number, IP address, etc…) via a report, then use the Import Device CSV script to pull the exported report back in. Doing this should mark the devices as manually added devices.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure you make a backup before you do ANYTHING. In case things go awry.

Will make note of this for us for later use! THank you for this.
