Hello!
I am playing around with the Data Grid in the New Custom forms Designer - more precisely with the "disks" Grid. What I found so far:
- Adding the Grid to the Forms I got this Error:
Schema fields [[is_clone, initial_location, volumeId, id, label, custom_properties, userCreated, storage_reservation_policy, capacity]] should match the default value fields [[is_clone, initial_location, volumeId, id, label, userCreated, storage_reservation_policy, capacity]].
Cause: there is no "custom_properties" Field in the Grid Layout
Solution: Look at the "Default" Value and remove the "custom_properties," from the Header and the "," bevor the capacity - in my case before the "80":
is_clone,initial_location,volumeId,id,label,custom_properties,userCreated,storage_reservation_policy,capacity
true,,0,1525072814859,Hard disk 1,,false,,80
is_clone,initial_location,volumeId,id,label,custom_properties,userCreated,storage_reservation_policy,capacity
true,,0,1525072814859,Hard disk 1,,false,80
- Using the "disks" Grid "breaks" any approval Policies based on Storage Size
Cause: If you add more disks to the Grid the Value of "Storage (GB)" will not be incremented
Solution: Well... its more a workaround since I have not found a way to pass the Values of a Data Grid to an vRO Action. I created a vRO Action which fills the "disks" Grid based on Values in the Custom Form (the size of the template base disks are Hardcoded):
![]()
![]()
![]()
- If you use an external vRO Action for the Grid Values the Return type of the Action must be "Array/Properties". In my Case the Action was not found if I use this return Type.
Cause: Bug?
Workaround: I changed the Return Type to "Array/String" and the Action was found in vRA. After I changed the Values Binding in the Custom Form, Saved the Blueprint and corrected the Return Type of the Action to Array/Properties.
