How can I view objects that have clones?
You can create an index to show a Yes or No value in a display column.
Description
I want to display a column in my Search
Results view that will show Y
or
N
for the Cloned
value for objects.
Solution
In the TEXTML Administration perspective, perform the
following:
- Edit the Index Definition file.CAUTION: Be careful when editing the Index Definition document. Changes can significantly affect the indexing process, and any errors in the document can lead to data corruption or other errors.
- Add the following index:
<index NAME="clonedFromExist" CUSTOMPROPERTY="True" SYNC="True"> <stringindex KEEPEXTRACTEDVALUES="True"> <elements> <element DEPTH="INFINITE" XPATH="if (count(//clonedFrom) gt 0) then 'Yes' else 'No'"/> </elements> </stringindex> </index> <index NAME="clonedToExist" CUSTOMPROPERTY="True" SYNC="True"> <stringindex KEEPEXTRACTEDVALUES="True"> <elements> <element DEPTH="INFINITE" XPATH="if (count(//clonedTo) gt 0) then 'Yes' else 'No'"/> </elements> </stringindex> </index>
- In the Index Definition file, add the
following two fields to the Summaries
section:
<field NAME="clonedFromExist" TYPE="Index" VALUE="All"/> <field NAME="clonedToExist" TYPE="Index" VALUE="All"/>
- To add the index to the display columns, edit the system/conf/display.xml file and add the
following:
<key halign="LEFT" label="Cloned To" name="clonedToExist" sortOrder="ASC" sortType="ALPHA" type="Index" visibility="255" width="30"/> <key halign="LEFT" label="Cloned From" name="clonedFromExist" sortOrder="ASC" sortType="ALPHA" type="Index" visibility="255" width="30"/>
- When the index has finished indexing, restart your IXIA CCMS Desktop and add the Cloned To and Cloned From columns to your Search Results view.
