Get Preferred Record Layout Operation

The Get Preferred Record Layout operation gets the layout that you can use to specify the input parameters in the JSON format for the Get Preferred Record operation. The layout contains parameters that you can use to retrieve the preferred record of a cluster or to define consolidation rules and generate the preferred record for a cluster in the run time.

Run the

run_client.sh

script located in the following directory to perform the Get Preferred Record Layout operation:

/usr/local/mdmbdrm-<Version Number>

Use the following command to run the

run_client.sh

script:

run_client.sh

--config=configuration_file_name

--operation=GETPREFERREDRECORDLAYOUT

[--outputfile=output_file_name]

The following table describes the options and arguments that you can specify to run the

run_client.sh

script:

Option	Argument	Description
--config	configuration_file_name	Absolute path and file name of the configuration file that you create.
--operation	GETPREFERREDRECORDLAYOUT	Type of operation that you want to perform. Specify GETPREFERREDRECORDLAYOUT.
--outputfile	output_file_name	Optional. Absolute path and name of the output JSON file to which you want to load the layout.

For example:

run_client.sh --config=/usr/local/tree/configuration.xml --operation=GETPREFERREDRECORDLAYOUT --outputfile=/usr/local/tree/output.json

The following sample response shows the layout that you can use to specify the input parameters for the GETPREFERREDRECORD operation:
