Managing Validations

Validation enables you to review and manage the imported data in the staging table.

Validations to be executed:

  • Missing correlation id (Correlation id)
  • Missing parent correlation id in case the type is Control module (Control module parent id)
  • Missing serial number (Serial number)
  • Missing transformed name (Transformed name)
  • Missing MAC Address (validation is executed on column MAC Address 1)
  • Missing type (Type)
  • Missing rack number (Rack number)
  • Missing slot number (Slot number)
  • Equipment model entity path does not exist (Equipment model entity path)
  • Site name provided is invalid (Site name)
  • Validate duplicates on transformed name (Transformed name)

    Note: This validation is skipped for control modules.

  • Validate duplicates on MAC Address (check on all MAC Address 1 columns)

  • Validate duplicates on Serial number column (Serial number)
  • Validate duplicates on Correlation id column (Correlation id)
  • Validate duplicates on rack and slot numbers

    Note: This validation is only for control modules.

  • Validate Has Module and Control module Parent ID

    Note: This validation is only for PLCs and control modules.

  • Validate Invalid types - Compare against the default Excel type to OT device type mapping through the sn_otsm_sgc.SGOTAssetImportExtensionPoint extension point implementation.

    If you have additional mappings, create an extension point implementation for the base system sn_otsm_sgc.SGOTAssetImportExtensionPoint extension point.

For more information about adding a custom implementation for device classification, see Add a custom implementation for device classification.
