Export UnDP pollers from NPM

If you want to use your custom UnDPs in later NPM versions or on different polling engines, you need to export them first.

  1. Start the Universal Device Poller application, for example by clicking Start > SolarWinds Orion > Universal Device Poller.
  2. Click File > Export Universal Device Pollers.
  3. In the Pollers pane on the left, navigate to the pollers that you want to export.
    • To select all pollers in a group, select the group.
    • To select multiple pollers, hold down SHIFT or CTRL and click the pollers to export.
  4. Select the pollers, and click Export. Pollers will move to the Selected Pollers pane.

    To remove a poller from the list of pollers for export, select the poller and click Remove.

  5. Click Save.
  6. Navigate to the location where you want to export the selected pollers, provide a File name, and click Save.

Selected pollers will now be stored as a .UnDP file in the specified location. You can use the .UnDP file to import the pollers on another polling engine.
