Filtering

Filtering allows to select interesting parts of topology data by assigning a context to these CIs. This context allows to selectively apply mapping rules to CIs of the same context. All CIs that have no context attached will not be synchronized.

Note The <Rules> tag for filter mapping rules must not contain the Context attribute.

ClosedContext Mapping 
<Context>[Context Name]</Context>

In the following example, all CIs that are assigned to the service type definition exch_spi_std_server_role and that are below a service with a service type definition exch_spi_std_server are assigned to the exchange context.

Example: 

<Mapping xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../mapping.xsd">
  <Rules>
    <Rule name="Exchange Server Role Filter">
      <Condition>
       <And>
        <Exists>
         <XPathResult>ancestor::ci[omType='exch_spi_std_server']
         </XPathResult>
        </Exists>
         <Equals>
           <OMType/>
           <Value>exch_spi_std_server_role</Value>
         </Equals>
       </And>
      </Condition>
      <MapTo>
       <Context>exchange</Context>
      </MapTo>
    </Rule>
  </Rules>
</Mapping>
