Imported devices have alerting disabled?

Hi,

I have a CSV file of 100 servers I need to add into LM.  I did a NetScan with the CSV file option, but all the devices imported with Alerting turned off at the device level.  I really don't want to take the time to go into 100 servers and flip the toggle one-by-one and am looking for suggestions.

I didn't see an option to turn alerting on/.off during the import so I'm not sure if it uses Off as the default?

I do see that in my CSV file I can put in a Properties field.  Maybe I can put something in there to force it to be on?  AlertingEnable = Yes?

Or is there some way to mass enable alerting for all the servers if they're all in the same group in LM?  Alerting is on for the group, but not each individual server, so not sure if there's a way to do that.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

    That's odd. Have you tried disabling alerting at the group level then enabling it at the group level? That might cascade the enable to each device.

    Otherwise, the SDK is your friend.
