Title
Foglight script to display the objects that are causing topology object "churn" -
Description
Is it possible to run a Foglight script to display the objects that are causing topology object "churn"* on a Foglight Management Server (FMS) instance? -
Resolution
The attached script, find-churning-objects_KB188003, can be used within the Foglight Script Console (Administration | Tooling | Script Console) to determine which objects (with IDs) are currently causing topology churn on a FMS instance.
Script variables:
typeName = "Host"; (the topology object to report on)numDays = 1; (the time period the script queries)churnThreshold = 10; (the threshold of the number of changes to an object to report on. Setting this to 0 will report everything)numObjects = 10; (the list of entries reported in the output) -
