Hi!
Agree.
In fact, you can do this by backing up database or exporting it using nxdbmgr. If you wish to backup only server configuration without collected data, you can just skip idata_xx, event_log, alarms, snmp_trap_log, and audit_log tables.
How this is different from DCI with external parameter as a source?
I'm not sure that this is needed in DCI transformation and event filtering scripts. Main concern here is performance - for example, if event filtering script calls external action and waits for it's completion, it potentially could block event processing for significant amount of time.
Could be implemented, but probably for "push" DCIs only (I mean allow to set value only for push DCIs).
This is one of priority changes - we have support request for this, so it should be ready soon.
Best regards,
Victor

1. Export for the NetXMS actions, event processing rules and script library

2. Or backup of the entire server configuration

3. Actions to be able to return a value(response from the command) to a specified DCI.

4. Or to call action from NXSL and receive/not receive value as response

5. From NXSL to be possible to set DCI values (activating their Thresholds as configured)
Could be implemented, but probably for "push" DCIs only (I mean allow to set value only for push DCIs).

6. Updated version for the DRBD subagent
This is one of priority changes - we have support request for this, so it should be ready soon.
