3.9.33  createRoll 
Synopsis 
Description 
Prime Optical supports roll creation on optical CTPs. Electrical CTPs and FTPs are not 
supported for bridge and roll creation.  
Prime Optical generates an Object Creation event for the roll created and subnetwork 
connections created as part of the roll creation. The subnetwork connections that are created as 
part of the roll creation will be named as nativeEMSName of the SNC appended with _ROLL** 
where ** is a number. 
The creation of bridge and roll is an asynchronous process. If the operation fails, Prime Optical 
cleans up all resources. For example, if Prime Optical fails to create a bridge and roll on one 
node, it also cleans up resources on other nodes.

rollCreateData
 
multiLayerSubnetwork::RollCreateData_T
 
In
 
Structure describing the roll 
to create.
 
For details about the Roll_T structure, see 
. 
Prime Optical support for RollCreateData_T is as follows: 
•  multiLayerSubnetwork::RollType_T rollType 
–  Supported. 
•  multiLayerSubnetwork::RollMode_T rollMode 
–  Supported. 
•  globaldefs::NamingAttributesList_T sncNames 
–  Supported. This refers to the name of the SNC to roll partially or fully. If two SNCs are 
specified, the first SNC will be the RollFromSNC and the second SNC will be the 
RollToSNC. 
•  globaldefs::NamingAttributesList_T fixCTPs 
–  Supported. This refers to the fully qualified name of the CTP of the SNC. This CTP is the 
fixed point of the roll. In cases where the rollType is DUAL, there will be two fixed points in 
the roll. The first fixCTP indicates the first fixed point in the roll object and the second 
fixCTP indicates the second fixed point of the roll. 
•  globaldefs::NamingAttributesList_T rollFromCTP 
–  Supported. This refers to the fully qualified name of the CTP of the SNC. This CTP is either 
the source or destination or any other associated CTP of the SNC. In cases where the rollType 
is DUAL, the first element in the array indicates the first rollFromCTP point and the second 
element in the array indicates the second rollFromCTP point. If the rollFromCTP can be 
determined from the fixed CTP, the value is ignored. 
•  globaldefs::NamingAttributesList_T rollToCTP
