Build for 24.04 is still on the way (there are some changes required and we were busy with other issues), but it will be available in next few days.

They should've been removed when instance DCI was removed from the template. Also "nxdbmgr check" should handle that, if I remember correctly.

Anyway, you can delete them either via API (e.g. using nxshell or custom java app) or by modifying database directly. I'd recommend API.

Something like this (do not run as-is, just an example):
for node in [o for o in session.allObjects if isinstance(o, objects.Node)]:
    c = session.openDataCollectionConfiguration()
    try:
        items_to_remove = []
        for item in c.items:
            if item.name == 'System.CPU.Usage':
                items_to_remove.append(item.id)
       
        for item_id in items_to_remove:
            c.deleteObject(item_id)
       
        if len(items_to_remove) > 0:
            c.commit()
    finally:
        c.close()


I have somehow wound up with a large number of nodes (>1500) that have a DCI that was created by a template dci with instance discovery, but the instance discovery DCI is no longer part of the template. Because of this, if I want to remove these DCI (which I do), I have to go through every node and individually delete each one.
If I go to edit the DCI, I get the popup that says 'This DCI was created through instance discovery' , but there is no instance discovery DCI left on the node.
I am at a loss, it seems there is no way to automate deleting a DCI through API or scripting, and I really don't want to pay someone to go through all of these nodes and sort out which DCI need to be deleted.
Is there a way to bulk delete DCI that I am missing?

Update: I just checked, and seems that there is another bug with same conversion (of instance filter scripts), that may lead to script corruption. We are currently building version 5.0.2 with the fix in upgrade procedure. If possible, restore database from backup and run upgrade again with version 5.0.2. Alternatively, restore only content of column "instd_filter" in table "items", and do script conversion manually where needed.

Best regards,

Hi!
This is instance filter script, number in script name is DCI ID. Please find this DCI and show the script.
Best regards,
Victor

Why do most data collection entries appear as yellow after upgrade, but they are still collecting metrics?

and i see error "Script(DCI::NODE-NAME::177748::InstanceFilter) execution error: Error in line 1: sytnax error, unexpected '?', expecting $end" Where can i find the script that is generating this error ?

update was done directly to 5.0.1.

At my installation I'm using a networkmap for every floor with a jpg or png image as background and some other informations. These images are of different sizes. Til now it worked fine getting the image from image-library and it was displayed perfectly.
With version 5.0.1 mapsize within map properties has to be changed from width=0 and height=0 to a value that fits imagesize to be displayed correctly.
Is this a bug or intended behavior?
If this is intended behavior I have to change the values for many, many maps....

Hi. Version 5.0.1 for macOS (Apple Silicon) is not available. Error 404 on download.
