Quali Resource Family Attribute Inheritance
Lets say I have a pre-existing resource, i.e. Cisco-Switch-01 that is associated with resource family Cisco and Model Switch. Within the Cisco family I have an attribute called image with a default value set at the family level. If I change that default value at the family level (within Resource Manager) shouldn't that propagate down to the resource? Maybe I'm doing something incorrectly but that does not appear to be getting updated on the resource Cisco-Switch-01.
The default values that are set on the family/model are only relevant when you create a new resource - that's when they'll get these default values.
If you want to change a value on an existing resource, you'll have to use the Resource Manager client, the portal while the resource is reserved, or the API.
