Manage Relationships With Generic REST Web Services

Generic REST web services do not use an argument within the URL to manage relationships. Instead, generic REST web services rely on the basic operations alone to manage relationships. The endpoints filter on themselves to expose the information. These methods are used for managing relationships between the metric families and SNMP vendor certifications.

Relationships for generic REST web services are viewed, created, and deleted using the following methods:

GET http://hostname:port/genericWS/endpoint/name/endpoint
PUT http://hostname:port/genericWS/endpoint/name/endpoint
DELETE http://hostname:port/genericWS/endpoint/name/endpoint

Parameters

hostname:port

Specifies the Data Aggregator host name and the port number.

Default port: 8581

endpoint/name

Specifies the name of a metric family or SNMP vendor certification endpoint.

Example: List Metric Families Related to an SNMP Vendor Certification

To return a list of metric families that are related to a specified SNMP vendor certification, use the following URL syntax:

GET http://hostname:port/genericWS/certifications/snmp/name/metricfamilies
