HP Matrix Operating Environment 7.2 Update 1 Infrastructure Orchestration User Guide

Example 1 Received XML (PropertyXML)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<Name>LogicalServer:0577a0cc-8122-4802-8173-6161b2f8dcc4</Name>

</Property>

<Name>LogicalServer:15d20b1d-abee-45bb-88d8-d951dc1495d9</Name>

</Property>

</PropertyList>

The empty Value element is replaced by the host name creation workflow. See the returned XML

example below.

Example 2 Returned XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<Name>LogicalServer:0577a0cc-8122-4802-8173-6161b2f8dcc4</Name>

<Value>hostname-01</Value>

</Property>

<Name>LogicalServer:15d20b1d-abee-45bb-88d8-d951dc1495d9</Name>

<Value>hostname-02</Value>

</Property>

</PropertyList>

The new host names are inserted in the appropriate Value elements. Matrix infrastructure

orchestration uses these values as the host names.

If the OO workflow RESERVE operation fails, the current request also fails since no host names are

generated. No partial results are accepted. It is expected that the workflow is able to generate all

requested host names. In case it fails, for example, by generating only 9 of the 10 host names

requested, none of the host names are used. The workflow must ensure such host names can be

reused in a subsequent RESERVE operation if applicable.

HostnameOperationTypeEnum RELEASE option

The HostnameOperationTypeEnum RELEASE is used during the delete service and remove server

requests. Configure the workflow parameters as follows:

• PropertyXML contains the name/value pairs representing the IDs of the server(s) being removed

or deleted. The value field of each pair is empty.

• The workflow must find the appropriate logical servers in the InfrastructureServiceXML based

on the specified server IDs.

• The workflow must take the appropriate actions for each specified logical server depending

on its internal behavior. For example, the provided sample using a pool of host names

disassociates the host name from the server ID in the database.

• No return value is expected.
