Service Virtualization

Hello,

With DevTest 8.1 or 10.0, is there a simple way to change thinkscale or model behavior ?

I've tried the following : 

1 - gett VS using API GET /api/Dcm/VSEs/serviceName/virtualServiceName

2 - update thinkScale inside xml file

3 - put the new xml file using API PUT /api/Dcm/VSEs/serviceName/virtualServiceName

Is it a good way ? 

With this, I have the following error : "<Id>1009</Id><Message>Unsupported Media Type</Message>" with a java stacktrace.

I'm using wget command : 

wget --user=svpower --password=svpower http://slzqla:1505/api/Dcm/VSEs/vse-sandbox/TestFBA
wget --user=svpower --password=svpower --method=PUT --body-file=TestFBA http://slzqla:1505/api/Dcm/VSEs/vse-sandbox/TestFBA

Is there something wrong ?

Regards,

Benoit

In the DevTest Portal you can change the VS Think scale and Model behavior in Monitor-->Virtual Services. DevTest 10.0 documentation is available at Monitor Virtual Services - DevTest Solutions - 10.0 - CA Technologies Documentation.

The Swagger API does not support this, as far as I know.

These values may be set from the command line using VSEManager. The brief help for this tool is, below - the --update option is relevant to your question.

This command line tool is used for managing virtual service environments.
Syntax:
VSEManager options command [ ... command ]

where "options" may be one or more of the following:

--registry <name>
Used to set the name of the DevTest Registry to work through.

--vse <name>

--username=<name>
Used to set the ID of the user to authenticate with when ACL is in use.

--password=<name>
