Hi,
While creating an service definition I found the grouping option. Other then groups highlights in de service defintion editor, is it possible to use these groups in LSO and other scripts? If so, where can i find the documentation about this(did a quick search on the both dev and user help but couldn't find it)
The grouping of nodes is a feature from very early days of SRM, and this was used to support workflows that we are now no longer supporting or supporting in a different way.
The only thing that remains is indeed the grouping itself in the service definition.
I see you would like to use that information in LSO , can you further describe what you would like to do here?
For each service definition, there is typically a custom LSO that you can tweak to support your use case. Do you then really need to access that information in LSO?
Hi Gerwin,
The grouping option:
- it is one of those very small features of SRM 1.0 (DataMiner 9.5.3.0) from the past that is not really being documented well. Sorry to read that no documentation is found.
I do have found the original task for it:
https://collaboration.dataminer.services/task/69946
- For now, this is currently only used as a visual UI feature in Cube.
- It could possibly be used in LSO scripts.
The nodes are stored in a nodeGroup. a collection of such groups can be found directly on the Service Definition object itself.
Hope this helps you further
Well on closer inspection it’s not really the LSO what i try to do.
what i try to do is have an Service defintion with multiple inputs with an backup input. We do have an script that lets us swap them around, however this is limited to only one input + backup input per service defintion. I’m trying to find a way to do multiple inputs/outputs
