Is there any way we can identify whether a server/device is part of any Service model in Spectrum?

Issue/Introduction

We have many service dashboards created in Spectrum, I need to validate some servers whether they are part of any of the Services or not, how can we do that from server model?

One way I know go to each service model and search verify if the concerned servers are part of any service model or not, which is really time consuming.

I want to know from server model itself, like from any attribute that would indicate if concerned servers are part of any Service model?

Environment

Release : 20.2

Component : Spectrum Applications

Resolution

You can search either via CLI (Command Line Interface) or RESTfull Web Services.

Here are the steps:

1. Take note of the model_handle attribute value of the server/device in question.

2. Go to the SpectroSERVER host.

3. Open a bash shell (bash -login) logged as Spectrum Install Owner account.

4. Connect to CLI:

$ ./connect

5. Run the following syntax to find if a server/device belongs to a Service:

$ ./show associations mh=<model_handle of the server> | grep SlmMonitors

Here are some examples:

$ ./show associations mh=0x1000fb | grep SlmMonitors

LMHandle    LMName                 Relation        RMHandle    RMName
0x100117    Service1               SlmMonitors     0x1000fb    Server_123

Where 0x100117 is the model_handle of the Service

$ show associations mh=0x10008b | grep SlmMonitors

LMHandle    LMName                 Relation        RMHandle    RMName
0x100119    Service1_Resource_mon  SlmMonitors     0x10008b    Server_456

Where 0x100119 is the model_handle of the Service

6. Disconnect from CLI:

$ ./disconnect

 

7. Paste the following URL in a regular browser (RESTful WebService API):

http://<OneClick_hostname>:<port>/spectrum/restful/associations/relation/0x4500004/model/0x1000fb?side=right

Where 0x1000fb is the model_handle of the server.

You will get an output like below: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="true"?>
-<association-response-list xmlns="http://www.ca.com/spectrum/restful/schema/response">
-<association-responses>
<association rightmh="0x1000fb" leftmh="0x100117" rh="0x4500004"/>
</association-responses>
</association-response-list>

Where 0x100117 is the model_handle of the Service.

 

http://<OneClick_hostname>:<port>/spectrum/restful/associations/relation/0x4500004/model/0x10008b?side=right

Where 0x10008b is the model_handle of the server.

You will get an output like below: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="true"?>
-<association-response-list xmlns="http://www.ca.com/spectrum/restful/schema/response">
-<association-responses>
<association rightmh="0x10008b" leftmh="0x100119" rh="0x4500004"/>
</association-responses>
</association-response-list>

Where 0x100119 is the model_handle of the Service.
