Device Group Service Operations

Overview

Using Device Group Service operations you can create, read, update, and delete device groups as well as view all device groups in the TIBCO LogLogic® appliance.

Device groups are groups configured on the TIBCO LogLogic® appliance of any source of log data that you want captured by the appliance. In the TIBCO LogLogic® appliance, to view the user interface implementation navigate to Management > Devices > Device Groups.

Implementation Guidelines

These are some general implementation guidelines for Device Group Service operations:

• A set of common request parameters are required for each operation. You must specify a value for all Required parameters.
• You must specify the value of the common request parameters only.
• All parameters must be implemented in the order in which they appear in the Request Parameters section for each of the operations.
• All values for common request parameters must be enclosed by double quotation marks (“value”). If the name of a device or a parameter value includes a forward slash (/), such as HP/UX, or IBM i5/OS, you must replace the forward slash with %2F. (The F is case-sensitive.)

Examples: HP%2FUX or IBM i5%2FOS

Description of Device Group Service Operation

There are two kinds of device groups:

• local - a group of log sources on the local appliance (that is, the appliance you are logged into)
• global - a group of log sources on multiple appliances. Global groups are created and managed only from Management Station appliances.

The Device Group Service operations are as follows:

• createDeviceGroup Operation
• createDeviceGroupRemote Operation
• addDevices Operation
• addDevicesRemote Operation
• removeDevices Operation
• removeDevicesRemote Operation
• readDeviceGroup Operation
• readDeviceGroupRemote Operation
• updateDeviceGroup Operation
• updateDeviceGroupRemote Operation
• deleteDeviceGroup Operation
• deleteDeviceGroupRemote Operation
• getList Operation
• getListRemote Operation
• deviceGroupResponse Type
