Hi Ralf, thanks for the clarification. I was expecting this, but I didn't read the ABNF properly. Could we add this to the OCCI HTTP Rendering document in a future iteration (maybe just extending the existing example for Link inline creation with a mixin)? I tried to create an issue in GridForge once, but I couldn't find a button which said "create issue". If someone helps me with creating issues (maybe after the move of the OGF infrastructure is completed), I will put it into GridForge.

Hi Florian,
You can do this by specifying both the NetworkInterface Kind and the
IPNetworkInterface Mixin in the "category=" parameter.
E.g.:
Link: </network/722bb908-0c48-11e1-b25e-00163e211147>;
rel="http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/core#link";
category="http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/infrastructure#networkinterface
http://schemas.ogf.org/occi/infrastructure/networkinterface#ipnetworkinter face";
occi.networkinterface.mac="00:11:22:33:44:55";
occi.networkinterface.interface="eth0";
occi.networkinterface.address="192.168.0.2";
occi.networkinterface.gateway="192.168.0.1";
occi.networkinterface.allocation="static";
X-OCCI-Attribute: occi.compute.cores=2
This allows inline creation of Links with associated mixins.
The relevant ABNF from the HTTP spec would be:
...
[ ";" "category" "=" link-type
... ]
link-type = type-identifier *( 1*SP type-identifier )
regards, Ralf

Hi,
I have a question regarding inline creation of links. If I create an
OCCI
compute object and want to link to a network, I use the OCCI
Networkinterface Link to supply additional attributes like MAC or
interface name. If I want to add an IP address as well, I need to use
the
IPNetworkInterface Mixin. But the mixin has to be applied to the Link
and
not the OCCI Compute object. Thus I have a problem adding it during
inline
creation of the OCCI Compute object. Can anyone help me here? Adding the
Mixin later on is not an option, as the Compute resource instantly gets
deployed by the backend. It may be an option for the OCCI implementation
to check for supplied attributes in the link and apply the corresponding
Mixin automatically...
Here's an example:
Cheers,
Florian
