if(type.findProperty("host")){
def shell = topSrv.beginUpdate(type);
shell.addProperty("hmcName", null, stringType, false, false, false, "default", null);
topSrv.endUpdate(shell);
 
def objects = #!PowerVMVirtualManager#.topologyObjects;
 
if(objects){
def shells = []
objects.each{object ->

objShell.set("hmcName", object.host.name);
 
topSrv.mergeData(objShell);
}
}
 
def tmp = topSrv.beginUpdate(type);
tmp.removeProperty("hmcName");
topSrv.endUpdate(tmp);
 
topSrv.addProperty(type , "hmcName", null, "String", false, false, true, null);
 
tmp = topSrv.beginUpdate(type);
tmp.removeProperty("host");

For complete information about Foglight for Infrastructure, see Foglight for Infrastructure User and Reference Guide.
