Solved: Remove devices from LMS

Bill CARTER · ‎02-08-2011

I am working on a LMS 2.6 system. No ACS integration. LMS has not been touched in 3 years.

800 devices are in the database. Several offices have been closed so about 100 devices are no longer reachable.

Is there any automated method to remove these devices?

Can I run a report to see when a device was last contacted?

Bill,

With LMS 2.6 there is not a quick way to do this. Version 3.2 and up does have a poller in Common Services that can track devices that have been unreachable for a time period and report on that.

However, you can go to the RME application and look at the inventory collection screen and note any that have failed recently when collecting inventory on a regular basis. That list of devices should contain the ones out of commission now. Use that list to remove the necessary devices from the Device Credential Respository (DCR) in Common Services.
