Using the Add Ports Action
A Manage-type Action lets you add Juniper device ports to the OpenManage Network Manager
(OMNM) database before resync picks them up. These can be ports created by Adaptive CLI
actions that simply add ports without updating the database, or those added outside the OMNM
application. Once ports are in the database, you can then use them in services in in the Service
Center. The advantage of having this action available explicitly is that you do not have to wait for a
resync to populate the database correctly.
CAUTION:
This Management Action works only for ports already added to the device. Using it to add to the OMNM
inventory first then running automated or manual resync removes the port from the database.
Use the Add ports action from the Managed Resources portlet as follows.
1 Right-click a device and then select Actions.
The Actions Selection window is displayed.
2 Click the Manage tab.
