Troubleshooting host part attribute mapping

If host part attribute mappings aren't working as expected, then the Gateway log file may give more information. Some problems that may be encountered while configuring host part attribute mapping are shown in the table below.

Configuration problem Effects
The Standard Name specified in the host part attribute mapping does not exist on the MI server

The host part attribute is not created, or (if it already exists on the part) is not updated.

A message will be written to the error log.

The Standard Name exists on the MI server, but:
  • is not mapped to any of the MI attributes on the record being assigned

  • is mapped to an MI attribute that has no data value on the record being assigned

  • is mapped to an attribute that is marked "not applicable" on the record being assigned

The host part attribute will be created on the part, but will be empty.

Note that in these cases, an error message is not written to the error log.
