The Ant .bat script on Windows (as of v1.9.9) has an error where it cannot parse angle brackets (< and >). This issue has been resolved in Ant .sh script in v1.9.9, but those same changes have not been made for Windows. This issue is meant to monitor this issue.

Work Around: Use a Linux server to run your angle bracket cli commands or plugin steps.

Hello,

I just starting using DCM, and I am very happy with it so far.
one question, how can I create FSH using command line? I couldn't find a task to do so?!

thank you

I am using DCM plugin version 8 with UrbanCode deploy.
My requirements is to copy a folder which has files and other sub-directories which then has more files and sub-directories to DataPower.

<dcm:upload local="${deploy.dir}/Mapping/**.*" remotedir="${mapping.dir}"/>
If I use the above statement in my dcm-upload definition, it only deploys the files and immediate folders under the Mapping folder to the DataPower destination folder. So if the Mapping folder has a folder 'xyz' under it, the contents of the folder 'xyz' do not get copied. i.e. no recursion.

The behaviour doesn't change with this statement
<dcm:upload localdir="${deploy.dir}/Mapping" match="**.*" remotedir="${mapping.dir}"/>
Can someone suggest a way to recursively deploy/upload files and sub-directories recursively to DataPower using DCM plugin using UrbanCode?

Hello,

Having downloaded the .zip src dist today, I find the build fails because the build appears to attempt to download a file that does not appear to exist (http://www.us.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.9.5-bin.zip). See Ant output below.

Hi There,
I am using the datapower plugin to do deployment to datapower. The deployment actually works however the status on UCD ends in failure due to the timeout issue. Please find the attached screen from UCD. Logs attached as well. Tks

Hi

Is there anyway i can get older stable version of this plugin ? i.e version#6.

Hi Folks,

I need more help :( I am not a programmer, so I am facing a lot of challenges to build my own code.
for example, if you follow the easyStart project, you can see that the author created load-balancer-group-to-ant.xml to create/update loadbalancer group. for that there were two important files specifically to this task:
1-load-balancer-group-to-ant.xml ( complicated)
2-ucdDemo.lbg.dcm.xml (easy after we have 1 built)

my question is I want to do the same for HTTPSSourceProtocolHandler to create/update it during deployment and many other objects . I tried to manually build HTTPS-SourceProtocol-Handler-to-ant.xml file by looking at xml-mgmt.xsd ..it's so time consuming process and complicated.

how can I do that? is there an easy way to figure out the definition dm for any datapower object?

BackupDomain is working correctly, but when I execute BackupDevice operation, it everytime fails with following error (stack-trace):

Hello Experts,

I'm looking at the DCM ANT Targets to import deployment policy object (zip) in to a particular domain and export all objects from that domain , I was wondering, If you could please point me to the ANT targets that are capable to do a simple import object and export all objects and all files of a given domain.

Thanks,
Bharath

Hi Experts,

we are testing out the DCM component for automated deployments within our enterprise, I have encountered an issue with importing validation credential object from definition approach. Please find the error logs

I have attached the definition file along with this post for your reference, I guess the ANT script is able to find out the file as this error would have popped up otherwise, however, I have feeling that the issue is with UTF-8 encoding. Please, Advise.

It would be great to have plugin step for "reset domain" functionality in UCD-DataPower plugin.

Hello,

I've started exploring the DCM tool and it is great.

Does it support Flush Stylesheet cache and Document cache yet? I did not see any targets defined for them in the "deploy.ant.xml".

I believe it is imperative to flush a stylesheet cache or document cache after using "upload-from-def" for xslt or any lookup documents.

Thanks

Hello,

Would it be possible to add a feature to make SOMA calls somewhat directly? It would simply take an in input request file, post it to the SOMA interface and write the response to an output file.

Why you may ask? There are often times when we need to do something and there is not an existing DCM feaure, or an existing DCM features doesn't quite do things as we need, and there is no time to wait for new DCM features/enhancements. The standard Ant tasks are inadequate so in the past I've used the Google Missing Link Ant library or Curl to make direct SOMA calls. But many customers won't allow us to install them, so I would like to see a DCM feature added to do it.

Hopefully this isn't a difficult feature to add since the existing tasks obviously make use of SOMA calls already - the underlying API just needs opening up a little to the public. I'm happy to attempt the change myself and submit a pull request if I'm pointed in the right direction..

Cheers,
Sam

I am running this on a Lubuntu 14.10 workstation.

I cloned the repository, I installed the pre-requisites and I built the project as per your instructions in README.md. Everything went as expected.

Now I am looking through the resulting directory structure, and there is no documentation...

I am what I would consider a competent sytem admin/developer, but I need some sort of pointer as to where to go now...

Could you please add a file which would give some basic commands I would issue, from there I am sure I can dig in and discover the more advanced functionality, but without a starting point I find I am unable to do a thing.

Hello everyone,

I am trying out an ant task that downloads the filestore by using the downloadFilestore macrodef in datapower-configuration-manager/dcm/src/dcm-taskdefs.ant.xml but it is failing because this macrodef cannot find mbaas-downloadFilestore.xsl (line 683 of revision 3e25998, April 14 2016):
<nxslt inprop="rawxml" outprop="tmp" xsl="mbaas-downloadFilestore.xsl"/>

If you have this file, please commit into the repository?

Thank you.

Hello Experts,

I was evaluating the DCM easyStart module and It looks like we define properties on a environment level and we also define properties per appliance. Typically appliance properties are specific to the appliance such as host & IP, I was wondering If we could group appliances under a single environment so that a single command will automatically execute command on all appliances listed in that group.

Please advise

Thanks,
Bharath

Issue discussing the potential of migrating the SOMA calls to REST calls. This change would increase the ability to debug and contribute to the DataPower plugin.

This change could come in the form of a new plugin or update to this one. The plugin wrapping Ant calls wrapping SOMA calls provides a high level of complexity when debugging and modifying. Separating these REST calls into a new plugin would drastically simply the entire plugin.

As stated by the wiki documentation, the most popular commands are:

• domain-create
• domain-quiesce
• domain-unquiesce
• idcred-from-def
• import-dpo or import-from-def
• load-balancer-group-from-def
• save
• upload-from-def
• valcred-from-def
  These commands should likely be tackled first.

@tonyffrench indicated that the SOMA calls access several XSLTs that would need to be accounted for. This issue is meant to discuss the feasibility of this change.

There doesn't seem to be an obvious solution for adding/deleting/modifying individual stylesheet parameters attached to specific objects.

Is there a way to use DCM for such tasks?

Hi Experts,

Hi,

Knowing that UCD doesn't support for-each loops it would be nice to have the DataPower plugin to provide the option to Quiesce/Unquiesce multiple domains in one step.

Functionality would be simular to the backupdomains step.

Thanks,

Hello Experts,

I was evaluating the DCM component, I ran in to below error while executing Export-Object method,

C:\Users\<user>\Documents\dcm\dcm\deploy.ant.xml:658: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\Users\<user>\Documents\dcm\dcm\src\dcm-taskdefs.ant.xml:136: Failed to export object castIron_LogServer_POC of class=MultiProtocolGateway from domain Test_Bharath on nc-wec-esbgw-a0r.<company>.com.

It looks like the Soma request is executing correctly and I was able to see the Succusful Soma response in the capture file, however, the command seems to error out while exporting intended objects, I have included the DCM command & Soma Capture file for your reference.

When using as UrbanCode plugin, its not possible to pass multiple property values.

For example from command line it would like this:

ant -f deploy.ant.xml -Ddcm.dir=. -Dhost=masked -Ddomain=BLAH -Duid=admin -Dpwd=masked -Dservice.name=LondonTrades -Dservice.type="MultiProtocolGateway" service-status

Same thing through a UrbanCode gui, there you add "Invoke any deploy.ant.xml target". In the add. prop. field I would put service.name=LondonTrades service.type=MultiProtocolGateway and it would never work. I tried separating by comma,etc putting them in quotes, dosent work. The only thing that works if a single property value is stated(e.g. only service.name OR service.type but not BOTH)

From your code(plugin.xml):

hi guys,

I am using dcm to deploy zip. The issue arise when I change some file content and upload the same in git repository. And execute DCM job.Any change in file is not getting inported in DP...

From Hermann, I got to know there might be issue when I create zip not on DP..it might be not updating checksum. Do wo have any job to build DP export from GIT.

Hi,

I have tried upload-dir command today, it is giving me errors. All required properties are set but it is still throwing the following error may be because 'https://x.x.x.x:5550 /service/mgmt/current' there is a space between port and uri. Not sure where to correct this ( is it in Java ?? )

1. I have tried other commands like uploading a single file, importing services, they are all fine.
2. I have taken the same SOMA request from the -Dcapturesoma generated log and tried that with a testing tool to DP by removing space, it worked fine. Only the ant command line is giving a problem.

Can someone please help ?

Hello Experts,

I'm working with DCM project to automate our deployments, As part of it, I'm working with Import-with-Def ANT target to import a service package with deployment policy. I was able to Modify Property through definitions file, I would like to filter out certain configuration items in the import package through Deployment policy definitions, I was trying out "delete-property" element in the deployment definition but, that isn't doing what I desire.

PFB property elements

<delete-property prop-name="Cryptocert_15" type="Certificate" name="valCred-CCS"/>
<delete-property prop-name="Cryptocert_16" type="Certificate" name="valCred-CCS"/>
<delete-property prop-name="Cryptocert_17" type="Certificate" name="valCred-CCS"/>

PFA validation credential snapshot

Please let me know what should be correct definition parameter in order filter out certificate entries in Validation credential object.

Hi
Since the ant startup script uses whatever ANT_HOME is set to, steps like Import Basic fail as the (current) default version of Ant included with UCD is different eg.
/opt/ibm-ucd/agent/opt/apache-ant-1.8.4)
Typical error is "deploy.ant.xml:922: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xalan/processor/TransformerFactoryImpl"

We worked around it by hacking the ant startup script from dcm to hardcode ANT_HOME.

Hello Experts,

I'm trying out "Import-with-Def" ANT Target as part of our deployment automation task, I ran in to an issue while executing this command to Import zip file based on the definitions. It looks like the java code is broken somewhere while execution, however, when I check DataPower import configuration, I see the objects are imported successfully, There are few objects down but, that could be be due to file missing in the Crypto Certificate objects. I guess import was successful however, java code seems to break at some point after importing zip file.

Hi,

I wanted to update a particular xslt/xml file from easy start project.
Will it possible ? .If possible could you please guide me how to do and where to start ?

When running this project it is dependent of DCM jar file.Can we run the easystart project without using the DCM jar ?

Can you please tell me the answer for this.

Thanks

Hi there

I am keen to use DCM in our enterprise environment.
I am working on testing selected ant target that we may use.

Is there any more updated documentation other WIKI?
Particularly, it is ok to run test-deploy.ant and test-wdp. Do i just need a test domain?

Normal Datapower SOMA and CLI commands are able to easily ignore basic import errors, such as when the import doesn't have access to certain file locations. These calls typical return a warning but continue successfully.

The import plugin steps however take this as a binary response and cannot differentiate between warnings and critical errors. Thus it will take a small warning as a complete failure and fail completely. The import commands do not contain a work around to succeed against a simple "No access to file" Import Error.

Hello,

I was planning to add some new features to DCM, however I saw this on the Wiki home page:

"Interior layers include XSLT and Java. You are discouraged from using these interior layers directly as a long-term project is underway to replace much of this code."

Can you please disclose how things are going to change? Until this is cleared up I fear any new features I add will be rendered obsolete when the design changes are made.

NB: in my opinion the mix of Ant, XSLT and tightly coupled Java makes things overly complicated. I would instead rather see the heavy lifting done entirely in XSLT, with the Java code acting as little more than a thin proxy to the SOMA web service interface. This way most DataPower developers would more easily be able to contribute and customise DCM, since they should already have XSLT skills to work with DataPower. This is just my initial opinion, happy to discuss in detail if you like :-)

Cheers,
Sam

It appears the last merge went wrong. See build.xml for example - it is now invalid xml

Hi,
I'm using the DataPower UCD plugin and wondered if it is it currently possible to use "Deployment Policy Variables" together with the "Import (Deployment Policy Object)" step?

If not, is it somewhere on the roadmap?

Thanks,
Jeroen

It appears the command line distribution is broken, I see this error when I try to use DCM (any target):

BUILD FAILED: [DCM root dir]/dcm-distros/dcm.1/deploy.ant.xml:137: The Ant property 'dcm.dir' doesn't seem to point to DCM since [DCM root dir]/dcm-distros/dcm.1/dist/dcm.dev.jar is not found.

I believe this is due to build.xml line 35:

<property name="version" value="dev"/> <!-- default -->

Before the value was "1", which produces a jar named "dcm.1.jar", which deploy.ant.xml expects. Reverting the value to "1" fixes the command line distribution easily enough, but I don't know if that breaks the UCD plugin distribution. I would try but I don't have a UCD setup right now. Maybe later this week.

IMO, having version numbers in internal build artefacts like this is a bad idea and just causes build maintenance problem (like this). It is OK putting a version number in the external distribution .zip file (e.g. DCM.1.0.zip and DataPowerUCDPlugin.1.0.zip) but I suggest keeping file names inside those packages consistent.

I see a task in build.xml (line 99):

<replace file="tmp/dcm/deploy.ant.xml" token="value=&quot;1&quot;" value="value=&quot;${version}&quot;"/>

This seems to patch the DCM command line distribution to work with UCD. Why does this all need to happen? Have I missed something?

Cheers,
Sam

Folks,
I would like to add an ant task that downloads specified files from a domain's filestore.

Use Case

In our existing automated deployment process in RAF, the concept of version (a service's version currently deployed in this device-domain) is implemented through a service version file that resides in the target domain's local filestore. In our deployment process in UCD, we would like to download that version file (if exists) for that service in the domain.

Proposal

An ant task (possibly UCD plugin step?) that downloads the specified files (1 to many) into a specified folder. I expect changes to the usual suspects:

• deploy.ant.xml
• src/dcm-taskdefs.ant.xml
• possibly, src/main/zip/*.xml

I will start working on this over the coming days followed by a pull request (hopefully in time for version 10). Please share your thoughts.

cheers
wen

Hello,

Please see below error output when attempting to execute the checkpoint task of the UCD plugin (latest version 8 - .zip downloaded directly from the UCD website). UBC is version 6.2.1.0.769568 running on Windows 7.

The key problem is at the bottom of the trace below: ..dcm/dist/dcm.8.774073.jar is not found

Upon inspecting the contents of the directory, there is a jar instead named "datapower-8.774073.jar"

I'm pretty sure this explains the problem. Note that the latest version of the DCM build from direct Github download builds it with the filename dcm.8.774073.jar, so I suspect there is simply problem with the way the plugin is packaged by the Ant build script.

Cheers,
Sam

A customer was asking me about executing arbitrary DataPower commands via the UCD DataPower Configuration Manager, using SOMA if need be. The specific things they're interested in are being able to modify a config so that they could change an NFS mount from hard to soft, and other admin. operations like listing users, deleting users, and so on.

Looking around, I see things like the dcm:object * elements. Would that do what they want? Or is there specific support for some of the things that they're looking for without having to drop down to SOMA? If the dcm:object* elements would be their best bet, which version first introduced support for dcm:object*?

Sorry if this isn't the right place to be asking these kinds of questions. I have even less experience with this than they do. . . .

I am trying to use the download-files task to download a target file, however, I am getting the following error:

Removed\datapower-configuration-manager-master\deploy.ant.xml:609: The following error occurred while executing this line:
Removed\datapower-configuration-manager-master\src\dcm-taskdefs.ant.xml:739: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Content is not allowed in prolog.

I am just trying to do something basic like pull a file named inputs.xml from temporary: I am using these two parameter inputs, however, for filename I've tried different variations.

-Dfilestore=temporary:
-Dfiles=inputs.xml

I am able to download the complete filestore successfully if I leave out the files parameter. I assume it has something to do with my syntax but I can't say for sure.

Hello Experts,

I'm working with uDeploy to automate our deployments and as part of this, I have been trying to export object through "export-object" target. I seem to get an error while executing the Process steps.

/apps/udeploy/agent_iaseng/var/plugins/com.ibm.datapower_14_c3a2c3a968584fd4f581528bd2cd099e0dfe97663c61ee533cccf732af1b63f6/dcm/deploy.ant.xml:658: The following error occurred while executing this line: /apps/udeploy/agent_iaseng/var/plugins/com.ibm.datapower_14_c3a2c3a968584fd4f581528bd2cd099e0dfe97663c61ee533cccf732af1b63f6/dcm/src/dcm-taskdefs.ant.xml:138: Failed to export object all-objects of class=all-classes from domain Test_Bharath on nc-wec-esbgw-a0r.wellsfargo.com.

I have tried to change the export.file property just to see If that is actually the culprit while running the process steps, I didn't get beyond this error.

I have attached the logs for your reference, Could you Please take a look at it and let me know If there is something wrong with my process step.

Thanks,
