SRM – What is the best approach to retrieve the ID’s of child DVE’s in an LSO script?

Hi Dojo

A Lifecycle Service Orchestration (LSO) script needs to set alarm templates on certain elements when they are getting booked. These elements are child Dynamic Virtual Elements (DVE). To set the alarm templates, I would need to know the ID's of these child DVE's.

For now, my approach is to cast the Skyline.DataMiner.Net.Messages.Resource object to a Skyline.DataMiner.Net.ResourceManager.Objects.FunctionResource object as this makes the ID of the parent DVE available. But I seem to be stuck here.

SrmResourceConfiguration[] resources = srmBookingConfiguration.GetResources().ToArray();

foreach (var resource in resources)

{

FunctionResource functionResource = resource.Resource as FunctionResource;
Element element = engine.FindElement(functionResource.MainDVEDmaID, functionResource.MainDVEElementID);

element.SetAlarmTemplate(alarmTemplateName);

}

What is the best approach to be able to retrieve the element ID's of these child elements?

Thank you in advance!

Kind regards

Hi Michiel,

A better way to do it, is by using the LinkerTableEntries property present in your FunctionResource object.

This tuple contains the [Generic DVE Linker Table] mapping (see table below) between the primary key ([Linker Index]) of your functionResource and the DVE PK ([FK Data]).

You can see this table by open your main element and then clicking on GENERAL PARAMETERS => Configure...

After getting your DVE PK, you can search in your exportTable (in this example is 3000) for the elementId/dmaId.

Below is an example of code that you can use:

public class ExtCard
{
private const int ExportedTableId = 3000;

public static string GetDveDmaIdElementId(ScriptInfo script, FunctionResource resource)
{
try
{
var dveGenericLinkerTable = resource.LinkerTableEntries.FirstOrDefault();
if (dveGenericLinkerTable != null)
{
return GetDveExportedTableElement(script, resource, dveGenericLinkerTable.Item2);
}
}
catch (Exception)
{
// ignore
}

return string.Empty;
}

private static string GetDveExportedTableElement(ScriptInfo script, FunctionResource resource, string dvePk)
{
try
{
var columns = script.Engine.GetColumns(
resource.MainDVEDmaID,
resource.MainDVEElementID,
ExportedTableId,
new uint[] { 0 /*Pk*/, 2 /*ElementInfo*/ },
(string dveIdx, string dveElementInfo) => new { DveIdx = dveIdx, DveElementInfo = dveElementInfo });

foreach (var row in columns)
{
if (row.DveIdx == dvePk)
{
return row.DveElementInfo;
}
}
}
catch (Exception)
{
// ignore
}

return string.Empty;
}
}

Please, let me know if you have any questions.
