Hi,I’m documenting the physical locations of our new GEN5 appliances in our datacentre inventory system (Netbox under the hood), and looking for some nice images for the front/back of these devices.Anyone know of any appropriate for this?(Had a look at https://github.com/netbox-community/devicetype-library, but there’s nothing Bluecat-shaped there.)Best wishes,David

We are introducing DNS Splitview/Split Horizon at the moment. We have to Views on our BDDS Server, one external view and one internal view. BDDS is hidden Primary for both views. We have two PowerDNS servers as authoritative secondaries for the external view and two PowerDNS servers as auth secondary for the internal view. The deployment roles in the view are set to these servers.We use the supermaster feature of PowerDNS for zone transfer.The external view is working as expected. In the internal view the zone transfer is not really working it seems like the internal PowerDNS server seems to query the external view on the BDDS.How can we achive the split view in this setup? Is there a design error in our setup? 

I’ve not had any success in using the compressed files like “restv2-diagnostics.log.9.gz”. The data is nothing like the v1 logs. It looks as though every line that is in the normal file has a folder named after it and another subfolder resulting in thousands of folders and subfolders with an empty file. It’s not usable. Has anyone figured this out?

Has anyone gotten BSUS working on PodMan. We are not wanting to install Docker CE becuase our server team does not support Redhat Unix and Docker any more. We have moved everything to Oracle Linix and PodMan. So far the repomse from Bluecat is that they do not know if BSUS would work on PodMan and that it wouldn;t be supported. They have not tested the application that configuration.

I’m trying to find a way to retrieve the Associated Deployment Role Objects for servers, including the object info that I’m able to see in the GUI (zones, etc). I’m able to use this below to get the roles, but that embedded data doesn’t include the zone/network, and using the returned ID to get the object doesn’t contain that data either. Is there another way? {{bam_url}}/api/v2/servers/:id?fields=embed(deploymentRoles)

Hello,I’m working on converting all our scripts from V1 to V2 of the API on version 9.6.1, but I’m struggling to find the right call to replace “GetLinkedEntities”.  For reference, we’re needing to do a search by MacAddress and return all the IP Addresses associated with that mac address, or even a single IP associated with that address.   The V1 to V2 guide lists several API Areas where this should be possible:GET /api/v2/tags/{collectionId}/taggedResources GET /api/v2/userGroups/{collectionId}/users GET /api/v2/addreses/{collectionId}/resourceRecords GET /api/v2/resourceRecords/{collectionId}/dependentRecords GET /api/v2/macPools/{collectionId}/macAddresses GET /api/v2/serverGroups/{collectionId}/servers GET /api/v2/locations/{collectionId}/annotatedResourcesHowever, I have had zero luck getting any of these to work at all.  I can do a straight mac address search and return the MacID without any issues, but getting all the linked entities to this mac address within the system has bee

In Slack, it was occasionally helpful to privately message someone.   Does that functionality exist in this forum?
