SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Network teams and MSPs struggle to track which managed devices are approaching end-of-life, lack warranty or service contract coverage, or have stale configuration backups, making hardware refresh planning and QBR reporting manual and error-prone.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-of-Life Posture: Query device lifecycle status across four dimensions (sales availability, software maintenance, security maintenance, last support) filtered by tenant or device.
  • Warranty & Service Auditing: Identify devices uncovered by manufacturer warranty or service contracts like SMARTnet to surface refresh and renewal candidates.
  • Configuration Backup Review: List backup history by device and time window, and retrieve full configuration text by config ID to verify backups after change windows.
  • Use Case: An MSP preparing a QBR pulls lifecycle and warranty data for a client tenant, filters for end-of-life devices with no service coverage, and records the prioritized refresh list in a GAIT audit branch.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to list all end-of-life devices without warranty coverage for a specific Auvik tenant and record the refresh candidates in GAIT.

Frequently Asked Questions about auvik-lifecycle

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find end-of-life network devices in Auvik?

Use the auvik_list_device_lifecycle tool with the last_support_status filter set to endOfLife to isolate unsupported hardware. You can scope the query to a specific tenant and combine it with warranty data to prioritize refresh candidates.

How to audit warranty and service contract coverage for Auvik devices?

Call auvik_list_device_warranty with covered_under_warranty=false and covered_under_service=false to find devices with no manufacturer warranty or service contract such as SMARTnet. Results can be filtered per tenant for MSP client reporting.

Can I retrieve the full configuration backup from Auvik?

Yes, pass a specific config_id to auvik_list_configurations to retrieve the full configuration text. Without a config_id, the tool returns only backup metadata such as timestamps, device, and backup type.

Does this skill support multi-tenant MSP environments?

Yes, all three tools accept an optional tenants parameter to scope queries to a single MSP client by name or domain prefix. Omitting it queries all visible tenants, and scoping is recommended to avoid mixing client data.

Can this skill update lifecycle records or trigger configuration backups?

No, the integration is strictly read-only and performs GET operations only. All lifecycle, warranty, and backup data reflects what Auvik has already collected; no records can be modified or backups initiated.
