      assoc_type="association type"
      ,source="source"
      ,dest="destination_target"
      [,separator="separator:attribute_name:character"]
      [,subseparator="subseparator:attribute_name:character"]

[ ]  indicates that the parameter is optional.

Options

• source_type

  Source target type.

• source

  Source target.

• dest

  Destination target.

• separator

  By default, multi-value input attributes use a semicolon ( ; ) as a separator. Specifying this option overrides the default separator value.

  Example: separator="<attribute_name=sep_char>" where attribute_name is name of the attribute for which you want to override the separator character, and sep_char is the new separator character.Example: separator="att=#"

• subseparator

  By default, multi-value input attributes use a colon ( : ) as a subseparator. Specifying this option overrides the default subseparator value.

  Example: subseparator="<attribute_name=sep_char>" where attribute_name is name of the attribute for which you want to override the separator character and sep_char is the new subseparator character.Example: separator="att=#"

Note:

The name and owner options must be used together.

Exit Codes

0 indicates that the verb processing was successful.

Non-zero values indicate that the verb processing was not successful.

Example

This example creates an association of type cluster_contains from target "abc_cluster:cluster" to targets "def.oracle.com:host" and "ghi.oracle.com:host":

emcli create_assoc
       -assoc_type="cluster_contains"
       -source="abc_cluster:cluster"
       -dest="def.oracle.com:host;ghi.oracle.com:host"
