AS3 declaration

In all the example declarations I've seen so far, it lists the virtual server name as serviceMain and if I deviate from that by giving it my own virtual server name like testme123.example.com-80 it complains about not using serviceMain. How can we supply a different VS name on an AS3 declaration?

 

Here is the error message. I used a Python get request to send the declaration. I'm using a Simple HTTP AS3 declaration.

 

('Status Code:', 422, '\n', u'{"code":422,"errors":["/Sample_01/A1: should have required property \'serviceMain\'"],"declarationFullId":"","message":"declaration is invalid"}')

 

 

 

  • I believe this has to do with the template type you are using.

    Try to change the template from http to generic and then change the serviceMain to testme123.example.com-80.

    When using the 'http' template I can get the same error:

             "Sample_01": {
                 "class": "Tenant",
                 "testme123.example.com-80": {
                     "class": "Application",
                     "template": "http",       <<<<<<<< Change to generic
                     "serviceMain": {
                         "class": "Service_HTTP",
                         "virtualAddresses": [
                             "10.0.1.11"
                         ],

    Altered the template type to generic and it deployed the virtual server with the matching name:

             "Sample_01": {
                 "class": "Tenant",
                 "testme123.example.com-80": {
                     "class": "Application",
                     "template": "generic",
                     "testme123.example.com-80": {
                         "class": "Service_HTTP",
                         "virtualAddresses": [
                             "10.0.1.11"
                         ],

  • Thank you very much! I tried the small change above and it works. There wasn't a lot of information on the documentation about doing it this way. I figured it's absolute nuts to see all your virtual servers named serviceMain. Do you have a sample template of the full declaration for a generic virtual server. I figure we would want to change some of the profiles like TCP protocol, etc.
