I'm trying to build an service template that needs to include an child element when two parameters in that element matches an wildcard. I've tried to following:
In the child element add an condition:
However this add all the targeted elements as excluded.
Then i tried to just add all the elements without condition on the element and tried to add an condition under global conditions
Now i cant apply the template with the error:
The Selected elements connot be combined into a service.
Question: how can i add only specific elements based on a text wildcard in a parameter?
Hi Gerwin,
I believe the main problem here is that the triggers/conditions that can be written to dynamically include or exclude an element from a service do not support wildcards. As far as I can tell, only fixed full value matches are supported for these kinds of conditions.
This is the same for non-service-template-services and their dynamic inclusion/exclusion configuration. You would see the same behavior if you would try to create a raw DataMiner Service with this condition (parameter value equal to "na*").
The Global Conditions for service templates are something else. These define which conditions need to apply to child elements at service creation time. Conditions in there will not be re-evaluated once the service has been created, so no dynamic include/exclude behavior there.
Hope this helps!
