To enable all interfaces of a particular interface type (or on the resource), right-click the interface type, and
select Enable All Interfaces.
To disable all interfaces of a particular interface type (or on the resource), right-click the interface type, and
select Disable All Interfaces. When you author by resource instances, all interfaces are enabled based on
the resource instance’s shared property. If the property is set to “true,” then you can enable or disable it. If
the shared property is set to “false,” then the resource cannot be shared, and therefore, all resources are
enabled by default.
This section also describes the following methods for authoring interfaces:
• Authoring Interfaces by Resource Type
• Authoring Interfaces by Resource Instance
Authoring Interfaces by Resource Type
Note To control the capacity of ports to be shared across session, an administrator can provision a
resource type with a new inventory parameter called the Capacity attribute at the interface level,
which is used and enforced by the scheduler (not at an inventory level). (The Capacity attribute
works for dynamic connectivity only.)
Note Values should be defined for each resource instance; otherwise, the interface can be used in an
unlimited session (the default value is infinite).
Table 11-8 lists and defines the default properties, when selecting interfaces for a resource type. You can
view the attributes of interfaces on the resource’s Properties view, and view and edit them on the interface’s
Properties view.
