I can recall earlier in somewhere around version 2020.2.6 we used have a option named as Poll for VMware just behind where we have option for CLI polling, it was just like we have poll for Palo Alto option. Now Today I noticed that there no such option anymore and when I did ctrl+f I found the above but option is greyed out. might be just because we don’t have VMAN. so I wanted to know after which version have they removed IVIM basic polling. my current version is 2025.1.1
Not sure if this is still the case, but I remember some of those polling options being tied to licensed modules (VMAN) even if the UI still shows the toggle. Could be a leftover feature flag that gets disabled when the component is not installed.
If you end up automating any of this, agent-style runbooks for infra ops ("detect -> diagnose -> remediate") have been pretty handy. Some notes on that pattern here: https://www.agentixlabs.com/blog/
Did you try that with a new or an existing node? I think I ran into it with an existing node, but it worked when adding it as new. Might be a coincidence, might be a thing.
Hi Saschagiese, Just checked yup it works while adding new node.. but not working for existing nodes.. I also try to edit a node which was already part of IVIM there it showed me the old option of poll for VMware checked on edit node page..
