Chapter 3 Adding and Troubleshooting Devices Using Device Management
Using RME Device Selector
Only one Saved device list is created within the RME device selector. If concurrent users have
created Saved device list, only the last created Saved device list appears in the RME Device Selector.
The previous Saved device list is overwritten with the latest.
You can use the Previous selection and Saved device groups only when you are working on a RME
application. You cannot use these device groups when you are working on another CiscoWorks
application. That is, if you are working on the Campus Manager application, these groups must not
be used.
• The User Defined Groups folder lists RME devices that satisfy the group rules. The group rules are
defined by you at the time of creating the User-defined groups.
See Managing RME Device Groups Using Group Administration for further details on RME
User-defined groups.
• Based on the applications that are installed on your CiscoWorks server, you will also view device
folders related to other CiscoWorks applications:
CiscoWorks_ApplicationName@CiscoWorks_ServerHostName
For example: For CiscoWorks Common Services, you will see:
CS@CiscoWorks_ServerHostName.
In a stand-alone system, server name is not appended. For example, for Common Services, you will
see CS.
• Other application folders are displayed in RME based on the settings at Common Services > Device
Management > Device Selector Settings. For more details, see Common Services Online Help.
• In RME Device Selector, the other CiscoWorks application device folders will list only RME
devices.
For example: If you have devices, A, B, C and D in CiscoWorks Common Services and you have
devices A, B, and C in RME then in the RME Device Selector under Common Services device
folder, you will view on RME device list, A, B, and C.
• The device appears in a disabled (greyed out) state when:
–
Device type is Unknown in Device and Credential Repository. In all RME applications device
is shown as disabled except in Inventory job creation and reports.
–
Device type is known and correct in Device and Credentials (that is, the SysObjectID is correct
and is available in Device and Credentials). However, that device is not supported by RME
applications. (Inventory, Software Management, and Configuration Management).
There are two types of device selectors in RME:
• Single Device Selector
• Multiple Device Selector
Single Device Selector
In the single device selector, you can select a device only at the leaf-level (device-level). The radio
buttons at the node-level (folder-level) are grayed out.
Multiple Device Selector
In the multiple device selector, you can select devices at both the node-level and leaf-level.
The following are the usage notes for the multiple device selector:
• If you select devices at the node-level, all devices listed under this node are selected.
For example, if you select the All Devices node, all devices under this node are selected.
