XMC-Workflow devices in parallel

XMC-Workflow devices in parallel

Hello,

I would like to start a workflow against multiple devices and read data from the devices.
The result should be in one variable  (for all devices) at the end.

For example "show vlan" switch 1 and "show vlan" switch 2.
I want to process the data I get back together on the end of the workflow.

By default the workflow is started like a script against both devices in parallel and so I can't simply exchange or merge data from both devices.

If I only have two devices I could of course change the IP from the first switch in the workflow to the second. But to do this I have to know all IPs before and on the other hand this is very time consuming for many devices.

Is there a way?

 

Regards

Stephan

Hi Stephan.

 

Check the ERS port counters workflow. The issue is solved there. In general = each activity has its own file with timestamp = I do not expect two users will execute the same workflow at exact same millisecond.

One of the activities then gathers the results and creates a final report.

 

Good luck.
