This is a little late but maybe still useful. Checking whether a device exists
is relatively easy as long as you know the landscape it should be on, or you
can just try each landscape until you find it. Discovering it is more difficult
because you need to know which container to discover it to. Here are the basic
commands you will need. You will probably want to create a script. I use Perl
but you can use bash if you prefer.
cd $SPECROOT/vnmsh/
# Connect to whatever landscape you want by landscape handle
./connect lh=0x400000
# Search for the IP address using the Network_Address attribute handle (0x12d7f)
./seek attr=0x12d7f,val=<ip_address>
# That will return a list of models including all interfaces on the server,
which you probably don't want, so you can grep for the sysedge model if that's
what you're using
./seek attr=0x12d7f,val=<ip_address>| grep -i Host_systemEDGE
# You can get only the model handle by using awk
./seek attr=0x12d7f,val= <ip_address>| grep -i Host_systemEDGE | awk '{print
$1}'
# The above will give you the model handle if the IP address exists
if [ -z $(./seek attr=0x12d7f,val=<ip_address> | grep -i Host_systemEDGE | awk
'{print $1}') ]; then
echo Not Found. Need to create the device.
fi
# Create a new sysedge host device by IP address (substitute the model type
handle for something else if needed eg. 0x10290 for pingable, etc)
./create model mth=0x1160088 attr=0x112d7f,val=<ip_address>
# That command will return the model handle of the new device. You can append
any other attributes to the create command in the format:
attr=<attribute_handle>,val=<whatever_value_want>
# The create command will leave the new device in the lostfound container so
you need to create a "Collects" association to move it into the container you
want (you need to know the container handle for this)
create association rel=Collects lmh=<server_model_handle>
rmh=<container_model_handle>
Hope that helps to get you started.
