ServerView Resource Orchestrator Cloud Edition V3.0.0 Reference Guide for Infrastructure Administrators (Resource Management)

2.6.2 Modification

When modifying network devices, only elements that have been defined can be modified.

The following elements can be modified:

• Admin IP address

• Device name

• Location

• Type information

• Maintenance Mode

• Auto-configuration for the network device

• Group ID

• SNMP Information

• Login Information

• Monitoring Information

• Web Management Window URL

If defining multiple elements, they will be modified at the same time.
Be sure to define the admin IP address to identify the target resource for modification. For the rcxadm netconfig import command, specify "modify" for Registration Mode (the Mode element).

The XML definition for modification of each element is shown below.

Example

• Changing the admin IP address and name:

  <Netdevice ip="New Admin IP Address" name="New Device Name">
  ...
  </Netdevice>

• Modifying a Location:

  <Location>Modified Location</Location>

• Modifying the Type Information:

  <Types>
    <Type>Modified Type</Type>
  </Types>

• Modifying the Maintenance Mode:

• Modifying auto-configuration for network device (when changing the value to "true"):

  <AutoConfiguration>true</AutoConfiguration>
