Question: I would like to query using the BVE API. How can I go about this?
Resolution: Please see the following commands and adapt as necessary as per Client Commands
Export all devices by Status and export to csv (Run on the BVE):
<TraverseHome>\utils>bveCLI.pl --host 127.0.0.1 --port 7661 --username superuser --password SUPERUSERPASSWORD --exec "device.status status=unknown" --format csv --output unknownDevices.csv
Export all devices by Status and export to txt (Run on the DGE or DGEx):
<TraverseHome>\utils>bveCLI.pl --host BveIPAddress --port 7661 --username superuser --password SUPERUSERPASSWORD --exec "device.status status=unreachable"--output unreachableDevices.csv
List All Devices:
bveCLI.pl --host 10.20.30.32 --port 7661 --username superuser --password traverse --exec device.list devicename=*," --output AllDevices.txt
List All Tests:
bveCLI.pl --host 127.0.0.1 --username superuser --password traverse --exec "test.list deviceName=*" --output testListAll11.txt
List All WMI Tests, CSV format:
bveCLI.pl --host 127.0.0.1 --username superuser --password traverse --exec "test.list deviceName=*, testType=wmi" --output testListCSV.csv --format csv
Create SNMP System Uptime Test:
(Test 'System Uptime_cli' gets created and shared credential is auto applied.)
bveCLI.pl --host 10.20.70.41 --user 195085 --pass xxxxx --exec "Test.create 'criticalthreshold=1800','devicename=IP_10.20.70.41_195085','resultmultiplier=1.0','resultprocessdirective=8','subtype=sys_uptime','testname=System Uptime_cli','testtype=snmp','warningthreshold=7200','maxvalue=0','snmpOId=.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1.0'"
