Importing name-value pairs into the DNCIM discovery database

After the name-value pairs have been discovered, they must be inserted into the DNCIM discovery database. Configure the DbEntityDetails.cfg configuration file so that the name-value pairs are inserted into the DNCIM discovery database.

1. Edit the DbEntityDetails.cfg configuration file.
   Note: Editing the ModelNcimDb.cfg configuration file makes it more difficult to migrate your customizations. Edit the DbEntityDetails.cfg configuration file instead.
2. Add an insert into the dbModel.entityDetails database table to extend the default EntityType filter.

   You can have only one entityDetails mapping per EntityType filter. For example, append a mapping similar to the following code:

   insert into dbModel.entityDetails
   (
       EntityType,
       EntityDetails
   )
   values
   (
       1,  -- chassis
       {
           NetworkEdge = "eval(text, '&m_ExtraInfo->m_NetworkEdge')",
           CustomerName = "eval(text, '&m_ExtraInfo->m_CustomerName')",
           CustomerType = "eval(text, '&m_ExtraInfo->m_CustomerType')"
       }
   );

3. Save and close the DbEntityDetails.cfg configuration file.
