    What's the largest device group a job will handle?

    I have a device group that is just over 600 devices.  Will NetMRI have any problem executing a job for this group?  I'm figuring that it will take about a minute per device, based on the times I saw with a few devices tonight.  I saw seven jobs running concurrently, so I should expect this job to run for about 85 minutes.  That beats doing it manually on 600 devices!  I'll post a follow-up on how it went.

    What's the largest device group anyone has had a job handle?

    I did just did a job that ran on 534 devices.  The job itself ran without a problem, but NetMRI didn't have credentials for about a dozen devices.  I think that's because we're running within about 20 devices of the license count and for some reason it is excluding some devices from the license.

    I found out that some of the devices in our network don't have valid login credentials or are not reachable.  So it doesn't look like a NetMRI problem, at least for some of them.  Some other devices have the correct login credentials and I can login using NetMRI's credentials, but for some reason NetMRI says that it doesn't have the credentials.  Maybe I'm overlooking something (like a license limit for the devices in question).  I've created device groups that should have put the critical devices into a high-ranking group that would supersede the default behavior.
