Question & Answer
Question
I want to check my NCM database for a list of devices with last modified date older than a certain date.
Since I perform frequent configuration update, the result will show me devices that are not updated lately.
How do I achieve that?
Answer
You can make use of any REST API client or the "cURL" command to query NCM =>
curl -u 'username:password' -X GET -H "Accept: application/json" -k -i "https://<ncm-hostname>:<port>/nsm/device/modified/before/<YYYY-MM-DD>"
Eg.
curl -u 'administrator:abc123' -X GET -H "Accept: application/json" -k -i "https://ncm.ibmtest.com:16311/nsm/device/modified/before/2019-11-23"
The query should return you with a list of devices with "lastModifiedData" before 2019-11-23.
