User-Defined API – Control Which DMA Handles the Request

38 views8 hours agoinformation message UDA user defined API User-Defined

Thomas Rich [SLC] [DevOps Advocate]1.16K 16 hours ago 0 Comments

Hello All,

We have a UDA (User Defined API) configured within a DataMiner system (5 DMAs total in the cluster) where an external system that is using the API is pointing to a single DMA IP address. However, when looking at Information events, it appears that any of the 5 DMAs are chosen at random to handle the API request.

Is this behavior expected?

Is there a way to control which DMA handles the API request each time?

Thank you,

Hi Thomas, this is indeed expected behavior. The DxM handling the API requests spreads these across the cluster.

If you would really need a specific DMA to handle certain logic, what you could do is have your API script execute a different automation script using an ExecuteScriptMessage, in that message you can define the DataMiner ID of the agent you want it to execute.
