Re: vRealize Automation API - Create a Machine Prefix

Kericmiles,

I'm trying to understand this...

What I believe I would need to do is create a vRO Action with this snippet in it.

var modelName = "ManagementModelEntities.svc";

var entitySetName = "HostNamePrefixes";

var entities = vCACEntityManager.readModelEntitiesByCustomFilter(host.id, modelName, entitySetName);

var inputProperties = {

  MachinePrefix:Prefix,

  NextMachineNo:NextNumber,

  MachineNumberLength:NumberofDigits

};

entity = vCACEntityManager.createModelEntity(host.id, modelName, entitySetName, inputProperties, entities[0].getLinks(host));

Supporting it I have created 3 parameters:

Prefix: String

NextNumber: Number

NumberofDigits: Number

Are there any other items that I should be providing the data for, such ashost, which my code seems to be failing at?

If so what should it be pointing at?

Others?

Thanks,

Bill S.
