Ideas to maintain thresholds across thousands of devices and even more instances. | Product Discussions

I have an ask to standardize some thresholds based on device type. We break out folders out like so:Clients/CLIENTID/Location/TechstackWe then have roll up folders under each client for reporting/automationClients/CLIENTID/ZZZ_FirewallsThe ask brought to myself and my team is to standardize thresholds based on techstack. The first one I was given is that all Firewalls should have status and X% for in/out on Interfaces.My first idea was to script it and use our automation platform to run daily or every other day to check if a threshold is set, and if not, set it. The issue there is on the initial dry run, I am at over 11 hours and maybe 40% through. This script loops through each client ZZZ_Firewalls folder, gets the interfaces, then checks if a threshold is set. If not, it sets the base threshold. I figured I would break it in half A-N and M-Z and run both concurrently. But in testing M-Z, 1 client is taking almost 10 hours, and I have another of the same size in that block. I also have 1-3 clients of similar size in A-N.Second idea was to create a dynamic group that encompasses all of the /Firewalls/ devices and set the threshold on that folder. But I was leery of that as we could end up with oddities on deepest folder wins.We also cannot simply edit the datasource as this datasource applies to much more than just Firewalls. Any ideas would be appreciated.
