Assumptions


IssueNotes Sign-off
1alternateId not used when processing 'deletedCmHandles' or 'upgradedCmHandles'Any alternateId stored in the cache earlier will be used

kieran mccarthy   

2In case of updating, when users try to change an alternateId we should ignore it.Ignore it a silent way (e.g: logging message), no exception should be thrown!

Kolawole Adebisi-AdeolokunYes, ignore as long as it is documented this is not supported (yaml) 

Issues & Decisions


IssueNotes Decision
1Is FDN optional?Is it possible to register a cmHandle without an FDN?

Toine Siebelink Yes it is optional as not everyone will use it

2In Hazelcast what is the key?Is it the FDN or the cmHandleId?

Toine Siebelink create 2 maps:

  1. alternate id → cm-handle-id
  2. cm-handle-id → alternate id
3Check alternateId in 'updatedCmHandles'Assuming updatedCHandle should NOT be used to correct/change the AlternateId for a CmHandleId

Alternate IDs are immutable once they are set.
However if a previously created CM Handle's alternate ID is not defined then an update should be possible.
The only way to change this value is to delete the current CM Handle and then re-register it.

4Should we persist the alternateId?Should we modify the registry model?

Toine Siebelink Yes, the Inventory Model should update with the AlternatId as detailed below

Alternate identifiers during registration

The first use case which should be handled is the storing of the new identifier ( called FDN or Fully Distinguished Name)

A fully distinguished name uniquely identifies an entry and describes its position.

To achieve this NCMP's CmHandle registration endpoint must be changed to accept a new String parameter which proposed name is alternateId.

Extending RestInputCmHandle object

During registration an object called RestInputCmHandle contains all the information to register new entities in the database.

The object should be extended at the top level with the new optional property:

RestInputCmHandle

Field nameType
cmHandle

String

cmHandleProperties

Object

publicCmHandleProperties

Object

moduleSetTag

String

trustLevel

String

alternateId

String

Save the cmHandleId and the alternateId to caches

During registration the new identifier must be saved to a cache. Because it could be reused later for queries.

The new cache must implement two maps (Map<String, String>).

The first map should be structured in a way where the original CM Handle ID is the key and the alternate ID is the value.

The second map should be the other way around.

Like this we will be able to map entities back and forth during queries quickly based on what value we have in the queries.

Inventory Use cases

create (initial inventory)

This use case is described above.

update

Assuming that alternateIds will not change during update.

delete

In case of a DELETE operation only the cmHandleId provided in an array of strings.

However during removal we should check if any of the two caches containing the cmHandleId and that is the case we should remove those entries.

upgrade

Assuming that it's ignored.
