# RPC sync-to-network

This RPC is a combination of the sync-from-network and commit RPCs. If one of those RPCs fails, this RPC also fails without making any changes.

The purpose of this RPC is to synchronize configurations from UniConfig nodes in the Configuration datastore of the UniConfig transaction to network devices.

RPC input contains a list of UniConfig nodes to be updated on a network device. RPC output describes the results and matches all input nodes.

Calling this RPC with an empty list of target nodes syncs the configuration of all nodes modified in the UniConfig transaction. If any node fails, the entire RPC also fails. The admin-state of UniConfig nodes specified in the input must be set to unlocked.

# RPC examples

# Successful example

RPC input contains a list of nodes to be updated on the corresponding network device.

RPC Request
curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8181/rests/operations/uniconfig-manager:sync-to-network' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "input": {
        "target-nodes": {
            "node": ["R1","R2"]
        }
    }
}'

RPC Response, Status: 204

# Successful example

If RPC input contains no target nodes, the operation is invoked for all nodes touched in the transaction.

RPC Request
curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8181/rests/operations/uniconfig-manager:sync-to-network' \

        "target-nodes": {
        }
    }
}'

RPC Response, Status: 204

# Failed example

If the admin-state for some input nodes is not set to unlocked, the request results in an error that includes a list of nodes with the wrong state.

# Failed example

RPC input contains two nodes. Node R1 is valid and R2 has not been installed. If at least one node is invalid, the entire operation fails.
