Example

In this example, the vmcli -f set_mapping command is issued to set the mapping between the Tivoli Storage Manager node "pvdc_oslo" and the real provider vDC, "Oslo Norway". The mappingInputFile contains this entry:
pvdcnode:pvdc_oslo
pvdcname:Oslo Norway
In this example, the vmcli -f set_mapping command is issued to set the mapping for the provider vDC node pvdc_oslo, the organization "Production", the organization vDC "Oslo 1", and the organization vDC node "ovdc_oslo1". The mappingInputFile contains this entry:
pvdcnode:pvdc_oslo 
orgname:Production
orgvdcname:Oslo1
orgvdcnode:ovdc_oslo1
