SRM Booking Manager – Build Service on Specific DMA

Solved162 views13th July 2023DMA enhanced services SRM SRM Booking Manager

Aston Galvin [DevOps Advocate]175 13th July 2023 0 Comments

Hi,

We are creating new bookings in SRM, but are noticing inconsistencies where the generated service is built on. We have new DMAs in our DMS which would be the preferred target for the service to be built on.

Looking at our SRM automation scripts it appears that when the CreateNewBooking is called, a reservation is created behind the scenes where the Service ID and DataMiner ID are determined. I am unable to see anything allowing us to override the target DataMiner ID for the reservation.

I know from memory that Services tend to be built on the DMA hosting the majority of child elements. I don't know if this logic is shared with SRM, but I took a look at one of our services built by SRM. The service is built on DMA 13 but only has a couple of children shared on the same DMA (2 x DMA 11, 2 x DMA 13, 5 x DMA 17, 5 x DMA 18, 4 x DMA 19, 5 x DMA 20). So it appears that this logic is not likely influencing the decision.

We have also changed the parameter DMA IDs to Store Reservations found on the Booking Manager (Config -> Wizard -> Default Booking Configurations). Once again this didn't seem to change where the service was built.

Finally, we ran the automation script responsible for creating the booking on one of the desired DMAs, along with the change above, but once again this didn't change the outcome.

We really require these new services to built on the correct DMA to mitigate risk on the platform.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Think this is a project specific implementation, where if the site property of a service was X it would only create those on a specific set of DMA's.

Probable in your case theire's a profile definition called RBM DMsPerSite and an instance Sites that lists on which DMA the service can be created.

In the background this is probably using the DMA IDs to Store Reservations feature.

I believe that in the your custom booking creating script it forces the DMA's ids based on the content of the Sites instance values.

I knew we should have just asked you directly 😀

For those playing along with slightly more standard Playout Manager, would setting “DMA IDs to Store Reservations” yield the desired result?

Yes that would have resulted in the desired result
