I have been trying to add a minimal device to the MongoDB, just enough
fields so the GenieACS gui doesn't throw some errors, and then adding a
refreshObjects task to the new device. Then when the modem connects it
will read the rest of the fields from the modem itself, which I'm
assuming also updates the redis cache?
Once the device exists I can add additional tasks to update the
configuration fields on the modem, which will run in the order I add
them, so refreshObject first then update of the fields that have been
discovered during the refresh.
I'm not sure how redis might interfere with that though, but my tests
have not revealed any problems yet.
Honestly using Mongo and Redis is all new to me anyways, so big learning
curve.

The ability to pre-add a device manually is on the feature request list.
Touching the mongo db can lead to problems because there is a caching layer in
there - redis.
The way I handle this is a notification fork I did. Genieacs notifies my
service when an event occurs on a device. I check if that device needs to be
configured, if so I start pushing config to it.

Our company has our current ACS (OpenACS) tied to our inventory system so that
when we assign a modem to a customer we add the CPE to the ACS's MySQL
database. When the customer does their initial bootup of the device it already
exists in the ACS with the assigned login, which we add to the modem by a
configuration script and a couple database reads.
We want to move to GenieACS, but we need to do something similar with our
inventory setup. I'd like to be able to add the assigned inventory CPE to the
ACS, and then setup a couple tasks to refresh all the objects and update the
username and password when the customer boots up.
For GenieACS is it possible to add a device through the NBI, or will I need to
do this with a MongoDB interaction?
