Hi all, Is there a way of ingesting data through a DS that can accommodate the northbound data tick?

Assuming we’re talking to an element manager and the EMS has it’s own 9:00/9:05/9:10/etc timestamps, is there a DS template that will allow LM to use that existing time tick in it’s DS rather than applying the LM ‘Poll time’? Reason for the question: 
We may need to recover from a connection interuption/delay between EMS and LM and cant simply discard intervening data ticks
 

Regards,

Not with a datasource. Datasource data cannot be backfilled, nor future filled. Eventsources can, but I’m guessing that’s not what you’re looking for.

Thanks Stuart. In this case we’re specifically chasing the metric info so it’s good to have some confirmation on what directions are open to us.
