Universal Device Poller - Test Transform

  1. Define what the transform should calculate.
    1. Click Add Function, and select an algebraic function.
    2. Click within the function parentheses.
    3. Click Add Poller, and select the poller that should be used in the calculation.

      Insert poller names within the parentheses of the selected function.

      If a selected function operates on multiple pollers, add all pollers within the parentheses, separate them by a comma and a single space.

      Example: avg({poller1}, {poller2}, {poller3})

    For transform examples, see Universal Device Poller - common calculations for poller transforms.

  2. Test whether the formula returns correct values: Select a device to test the formula, and click Test. Results display bellow.
  3. Troubleshooting failed tests

    The formula results might return the following errors:

    • No Such Name - the polled device does not support the MIB value or table.
    • Evaluation error - there is an error in the formula syntax, or the device does not support the MIB value or table.
