Hi there
Does anyone know if it's possible to access the parent object (e.g. subnet/container group name) in a script?
return $node->parent_name?
I could only found the standard node variables like $node->id, $node->name...
Thank you
Joël
Hi!
No, it's not possible. I can add this as feature request.

Ok, thanks for your quick response.
For our purpose it would be a nice feature because we have several nodes for each subnet with custom names which are in fact our customer company names. For example we could make use of that in the action alerts like email and customize the subjects with the company names.
Thank you very much.
kind regards

Added to bugtracker as feature request. :)
Btw, some message customization can be done using custom attributes for the object. For example, you can define custom attribute MESSAGE and then insert it's value into alarm text by using macro %{MESSAGE}. Of course, this is not a replacement for functionality you was asking for, because it requires manual attribute configuration on each node, but it can help in some cases.
Best regards,
Victor
ok, nice :)
thanks for mentioning that possiblity, I already figure it out ;)
So I'm waiting with patience....
keep coding that way, it's great!
