Did I do something wrong?
dlist=dmd.Devices.Server.Linux.java.getSubDevices()
dlist[0].zJmxAuthenticate=True
dlist[0].zJmxManagementPort=9000
dlist[0].zJmxUsername="jmxuser"
commit()


When I go into the Web UI the new values are not reflected.  But if I do a
dlist=dmd.Devices.Server.Linux.java.getSubDevices()
dlist[0].__dict__
The new values are shown.

In the Web UI, if I try to modify that specific device I get a
"BadRequest The property zJmxUsername does not exist" Reload/Dismiss

Ideas? Zenoss v3.2.1

zProperties are "special" you can't just assign values to them. You need to call setZenProperty, it takes a  property name and value.  You may need to clean up your object by deleting the zProperties you set incorrectly.

Couldn't just do a deleteZenProperty("zJmxUsername"). I deleted the device instead to clean up the object and did a setZenProperty("zJmxUsername","jmxuser") to resolve the issue.

Thanks
