Remove file from Documents – DMS Notification

Solved1.12K views27th July 2022Automation documents

Joerg Stumpf [DevOps Advocate]178 27th July 2022 0 Comments

Dear Dojo,

How can I tell DataMiner system that a document was removed by an automation script?

protocol.NotifyDataMiner(41 /*NT_SEND_DMS_FILE_CHANGE*/, 33 .. is the tool to accomplish that in the context of a protocol driver.

I think something similar should exists with dms.Notify(12 /* DMS_FILE_CHANGED_BY_DMA */ ...,
but I have noticed that we should not use this function.

Background:
We take a weekly scheduled backup of DCM configurations into C:\Skyline DataMiner\Documents\CISCO DCM\ and would like delete setting - files older than 10 weeks.

Hi Joerg,

You can use the snippet below, where you need to define the path to the file in the strinfo1 variable:

Skyline.DataMiner.Net.Messages.Advanced.SetDataMinerInfoMessage SDIM = new Skyline.DataMiner.Net.Messages.Advanced.SetDataMinerInfoMessage
{
What = 41, // notify file change
bInfo1 = Int32.MaxValue,
bInfo2 = Int32.MaxValue,
IInfo1 = Int32.MaxValue,
IInfo2 = 33,
StrInfo1 = "path",
};

Engine.SLNet.SendMessage(SDIM);

Moderator note: This is an internal call and we do not recommend using this, as it is not officially supported and we cannot guarantee that it will still work in the future. As a rule, you should avoid using SLNet calls, as these are subject to change without notice.
