Note

We have a view for this. ViewName:smart.YUSTART_CB_DETAILS_V

select node_name from smart.yustart_cb_details_v where owning_netid=?      This returns all nodes one owner netid owns. To filter node list by status,

select node_name from smart.yustart_cb_details_v where owning_netid=? and status_cd=?

Note

Need to know the exact flags to set. We want only Active nodes, owned by the netid. What is the flag we should set for status_cd?

Sample nodename strings

  • "tanner,cooper,radar"
  • "" (empty set)
  • "zuse"

...

update()

Arguments for update:
netid of ownercharge_code (gathered from a previous call to getSrvcChargeInfo() )
nodename (needs to be unique, and already exist)

client category (DS,MW,WS)
Client OS (Windows, Mac, Unix)
interval (backup time, or never)
PTAEO, passed as five separate strings

  1. What's a charge code (name and / or number)? Do I need to pass that with everything I send back and forth to netbill? ANSWER: It's a string that is returned from getSrvcChargeInfo(). Push it back to NetAdmin on update() and add() methods.
  2. Why would we care whether or not somebody is a student? Is there relevance to billing? ServiceNow already knows this information, and apparently NetBill already knows also. Do we really need to pass that back and forth? ANSWER: The answer is complicated. The short answer is that a student shouldn't own a backup system, but they may do so on behalf of a staff member, and they may also own one if they were a staff member and then their status changed to student. So the long answer is no, we don't care.

Process

Each group has responsibilities to get this process moving.

Note

Backeberg heard back from Norm Morales that he needs to know exactly which methods should be used for the purposes of granting rights on ACS1,ACS2,ACS3. Perhaps somebody from Rod's group can meet with Norm to work this out.

Rod Gustavson's group

We need Rod's group to review the API as specified and confirm that this seems to be complete and sufficient for CRUD methods on these records.

We need new interface to NetBill to conform with the API as specified here. Note, that it seems the existing methods are sufficient. Instead, we just need to build up WebMethods API to talk to the existing design. There doesn't need to be substantial rework here.

Kazi's group.

We need new Webmethods SOAP / XML api to bridge between the Oracle environment of NetBill and the ServiceNow SOAP interface. Kazi's group cannot begin until Rod's work is nearly completed. Kazi will need method names to bind to in Oracle.
