Create an inventory template for a logical composite

Create an inventory template for the logical composite in the Telecommunications Network Inventory application. You can use this template to instantiate a logical composite record and its related equipment and rack records.

Use case

The following example shows an inventory template for a logical composite.

Figure 1. Inventory template for a logical composite

The inventory model has inventory relationships such as Multi Chassis to Equipment and Multi Chassis to Rack attached to it.

Figure 2. Example of the network relationship

After saving the inventory template, it creates the related equipment and rack templates depending on the count mentioned in the network model relationship.

Figure 4. Details of a logical composite related template

The default naming patterns of slot, subslot, and port records that are created under the equipment are as follows:

Tableau 1. Naming pattern

Inventory record	Naming pattern
Slot	"slot-”+"chassis_position+”/“+position"
Subslot	"subslot-”+"chassis_position+”/“+equipment_slot_position+”/“+position"
Port	"port-”+chassis_position+”/“+equipment_slot_position+”/“+parent_slot_position+”/“+position"

You can edit the Name Pattern field.
