sagcc create inventory components attributes
Adds a new search attribute for a specified run-time component. The command supports only single-valued search attributes. A run-time component can have several search attributes, but each attribute takes a single value, for example:
attribute1=value1            
attribute2=value2            
attribute3=value3            
...
Syntax

Arguments and Options
Argument or Option
Description
node_alias
Required. Specifies the alias name of the installation for which you want to add component information.
You can view a list of installations and their aliases using sagcc list landscape nodes.
componentid
Required. Specifies the ID of the run-time component for which you want to create a search attribute.
You can determine the IDs for run-time components using sagcc list inventory components.
[attribute=value]
Optional. The name of the new search attribute and its matching value.
If the search attribute already exists, the command returns an error.
[{--input | -i} filename{.xml|.json}]
Optional. Identifies an input file that contains the data for the new search attribute.
You retrieve attribute data for the .xml | json file using the sagcc get inventory components attributes command:
For more information, see input.
[options]
Optional. The command supports all options supported by Command Central. For a description of the options, see Common Options.
Usage Notes
After creating a new search attribute for a run-time component, you can include the new attribute as search criteria in a lifecycle or search command to execute an operation against all run-time components that match the new search attribute. For example, the sagcc execute lifecycle start group=AB command starts all run-time components included in the “AB” group.
For information about including search criteria in lifecycle commands, see Specifying Search Criteria for Lifecycle Commands. For information about including search criteria in search inventory commands, see Specifying Search Criteria for Inventory Commands.
Examples When Executing on Command Central
*To create two search attributes, one with name “group” that matches the value “Test” and another with name “tenant” that matches the value “abc.com”, for the run-time component that has the component ID “OSGI-SPM” and is installed on the installation with the alias name “sag01”:
sagcc create inventory components attributes          
sag01 OSGI-SPM group=Test tenantId=abc.com --password secret
*To create a new search attribute, using the attribute data from the attributes.xml file, for the run-time component that has the component ID “OSGI-CCE” and is installed on the installation with the alias name “sag01”:
sagcc create inventory components attributes          
sag01 OSGI-CCE -i c:\inputs\attributes.xml --password secret
To retrieve attribute data for the attribute.xml file use the following command:
sagcc get inventory components attributes sag01 OSGI-CCE -f xml
Because the {--username | -u} option is not specified, the command uses the default user name. For more information, see username. The command specifies “secret” for the user’s password.
