Read parameters for DataMiner DCF Tables

Solved1.42K views10th December 2020Dashboards DCF Visual Overview

Hello everyone,

When trying to include DCF tables in a Dashboard or Visual Overview, it always gives me the possibility to perform writes.

Given the overview of the parameter IDs of the DCF tables in the DDL, do these parameters also have corresponding read parameters? If so, I could probably include these read parameters in the Dashboard or Visual Overview, preventing users to perform writes.

Hi Jan-Klaas, For the Visual Overview, you can use a so-called ParameterControlOptions DisableWritePids. It however needs the write parameters IDs (and afaik they are not exposed in Cube). For finding out the write parameter IDs you can use the Client Test tool (Advanced>Set Parameter…). I’m not sure though how this is done for Dashboards.

Thanks, this worked for the Visual Overview! I added the following ParameterControlOptions in the Visual Overview
DisableWritePids:65065,65067,65090|IncludedPIDs:65096,65062,65089,65064
65065 corresponds to the [Source Interface],
65067 corresponds to the [Destination Interface],
65090 corresponds to the [Destination DataMiner/Element],

Makes sense indeed to have a ‘read-only’ version of your table in dashboards. With GQI you can already get there, I believe. GQI even allows you to filter out rows and columns in an easy way.
At this moment, no alarm coloring will be applied in GQI tables, but that’s on the roadmap (currently forecasted for 10.1.4)
