NAME

Siebel::Srvrmgr::ListParser::Output::Tabular::ListTasks - subclass to parse list tasks command

SYNOPSIS

See Siebel::Srvrmgr::ListParser::Output::Tabular for examples.

DESCRIPTION

This subclass of Siebel::Srvrmgr::ListParser::Output::Tabular parses the output of the command list tasks.

It is expected that the srvrmgr program has a proper configuration for the list tasks command. The default configuration can be seen below:

    srvrmgr> configure list tasks
        SV_NAME (31):  Server name
        CC_ALIAS (31):  Component alias
        TK_TASKID (11):  Internal task id
        TK_PID (11):  Task process id
        TK_DISP_RUNSTATE (61):  Task run state
        CC_RUNMODE (31):  Task run mode
        TK_START_TIME (21):  Task start time
        TK_END_TIME (21):  Task end time
        TK_STATUS (251):  Task-reported status
        CG_ALIAS (31):  Component group alias
        TK_PARENT_TASKNUM (11):  Parent task id
        CC_INCARN_NO (23):  Incarnation Number
        TK_LABEL (76):  Task Label
        TK_TASKTYPE (31):  Task Type
        TK_PING_TIME (11):  Last ping time for task

If you want to use fixed width configuration from srvrmgr this will be the expected configuration:

    srvrmgr> configure list tasks
        SV_NAME (31):  Server name
        CC_ALIAS (31):  Component alias
        TK_TASKID (11):  Internal task id
        TK_PID (11):  Task process id
        TK_DISP_RUNSTATE (61):  Task run state

If you want to use the field delimited output from srvrmgr then this the expected configuration:

    srvrmgr> configure list tasks
        SV_NAME (31):  Server name
        CC_ALIAS (31):  Component alias
        TK_TASKID (11):  Internal task id
        TK_PID (11):  Task process id
        TK_DISP_RUNSTATE (61):  Task run state
        CC_RUNMODE (31):  Task run mode
        TK_START_TIME (21):  Task start time
        TK_END_TIME (21):  Task end time
        TK_STATUS (251):  Task-reported status
        CG_ALIAS (31):  Component group alias
        TK_PARENT_TASKNUM (18):  Parent task id
        CC_INCARN_NO (23):  Incarnation Number
        TK_LABEL (76):  Task Label
        TK_TASKTYPE (31):  Task Type
        TK_PING_TIME (12):  Last ping time for task

The order of the fields is important too: everytime those fields are parsed, if they do not follow the order above an exception will be raised.

METHODS

Some methods from the parent classes are overrided.

get_servers

Returns a list of the Siebel Server names from the parsed output.

count_tasks

Returns an integer representing the number of tasks recovered from the parsed output.

Expects a string as parameter being the Siebel Server name, so the number of tasks are those related to the server passed as argument.

get_tasks

Returns an iterator to iterate over the list of tasks of a Siebel Server given as argument.

At each invocation of the iterator, a instance of Siebel::Srvrmgr::ListParser::Output::ListTasks::Task is return, or undef in the case that there are no more tasks to return.

Beware that depending on the type of output parsed, the returned instances will have more or less attributes with values.

To be compatible with the role Siebel::Srvrmgr::ListParser::Output::Duration, fixed width output data will have a default value of '2000-00-00 00:00:00' for start_datetime attribute, which is basically useless if you that kind of information. You should use delimited data for that.

CAVEATS

Unfornately the results of list tasks command does not works as expected if a fixed width output type is selected due a bug with the srvrmgr itself in recent versions of Siebel (8 and beyond).

Even though a Siebel::Srvrmgr::ListParser instance is capable of identifying a list tasks command output, this class is not being able to properly parse the output from the command.

The problem is that the output is not following the expected fixed width as setup with the configure list tasks show... command: with that, the output width is resized depending on the content of each column and thus impossible to predict how to parse it correctly.

That said, this class will make all the fields available from list tasks if a field delimited output was configured within srvrmgr.

This problems does not happens when a delimited output is selected, so all fields will be available.
