Hi,

I have been researching Zenoss zope and Zope in general and can't seem to find a good answer.

I need to be able to constantly query (daily) device classes and event classes and export in some form like a flat file.

I would imagine this can be done in zendmd but I am not that savvy with dmd right now.

I also read on a zope web site how you can query via a URL. This would actually be a great but it seems like this will not work with Zenoss zope.

Can anyone help?

I was able to create a small python script at

http://zenoss-vip.domain:8080/zport/dmd/Devices/manage http://zenoss-vip.domain:8080/zport/dmd/Devices/manage

return [ d.id for d in context.getSubOrganizers() ]

This shows all of the device classes but not in any kind of heirachy.

I think I figured it out

return [ d for d in context.getOrganizerNames() ]

This page was very helpful

http://docs.huihoo.com/zenoss/api/2.1/public/ZenModel.Organizer.Organizer-class.html#getOrganizerNames http://docs.huihoo.com/zenoss/api/2.1/public/ZenModel.Organizer.Organizer-class.html#getOrganizerNames

as it names many of the zendmd methods with arguments
