Jaroslaw Burtny [DevOps Advocate]678 15th January 2024 5 Comments

Hi All.

I have a problem, I can’t take the parameters for the query : Get DCF connection.

I don’t see any displayed parameters in the table.

I need this to create: Basic node edge graph layout and its connections

Big thanks for help.

Hi Jarek, can you confirm you have connections in Cube?

Jaroslaw Burtny [DevOps Advocate] commented 15th January 2024

Yes, I have.
I also don’t see: DCF Interface in the men : QUERIES

Sebastiaan Dumoulein [SLC] [DevOps Enabler] commented 16th January 2024

DCF interfaces are currently in soft launch through GQI. You can enable the ‘GenericInterface’ soft launch option to retrieve them. More info here: https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Reference/Soft-launch_options/Activating_Soft_Launch_Options.html?q=softlaunch and https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Reference/Soft-launch_options/Overview_of_Soft_Launch_Options.html

Hi Jarek,
I see that this question has been inactive for some time now. Do you still need help with this? If yes, what happened when you tried the client test tool as Sebastiaan suggested? Or if this question can be closed, could you select the most helpful answer?

Marieke Goethals [SLC] [DevOps Catalyst] commented 18th July 2024

As this question has now been open for a long time and there has been no further reaction from you, I will now close it. If you still want more information about this, could you post a new question?

Hi Jarek,

Can you verify with the client test tool that DCF connections are retrievable (SLNetClientTest tool)?

Connect to your DMS and go to the ‘Build message’ tab at the bottom of the tool where you can construct a message. Create a GetInfoMessage of type InterfaceConnectionInfo and send the message.

Please share the result once you have sent the request. You should see the results from the server in a list format.

Hi Sebastiaan.

after creating this file as in the screenshot and restarting DMA, I have a problem with Elements as below :

Miguel Obregon [SLC] [DevOps Catalyst] commented 16th January 2024

Hi Jaroslaw,
I believe due to the fact that the XML tags are not displayed correctly in the answer, the suggestion from Sebastiaan is not displayed correctly. Please could you go to https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Reference/Soft-launch_options/Activating_Soft_Launch_Options.html and check the example in the code snippet (XML). You will need to create an extra tag GenericInterface and set the value to true. You could remove the other tags displayed in the example (CloudConnectedAgents and AlarmSquashing). The parent tag (SLNet) must stay in the file.
After this change, could you restart the DMA?

Sebastiaan Dumoulein [SLC] [DevOps Enabler] commented 16th January 2024

Indeed, thank you Miguel.

Hi Sebastiaan.

My test done as below:

I don’t have the file C:\Skyline DataMiner\SoftLaunchOptions.xml  in my system.

Can you send me what an example looks like?

Big thanks for help.

You can create the xml file with the following content: https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Reference/Soft-launch_options/Activating_Soft_Launch_Options.html

You can remove the “CloudConnectedAgents” entry and change the second entry to contain “GenericInterface” instead of “AlarmSquashing”.

Do note that the DMA and web server both require a restart.

Jaroslaw Burtny [DevOps Advocate] commented 16th January 2024

Sebastiaan.
after creating this file as in the screenshot and restarting DMA, I have a problem with Elements as above in the message. Problem: lack of communication with Elements.
Have I created the file incorrectly?

Apologies, my answer got interpreted as html so you couldn’t actually see the raw content.

Jaroslaw Burtny [DevOps Advocate] commented 16th January 2024
