Modulo division - return the other part

[Kaloszer]

Hey,

This is a question due to this bug/limitation:
#5632

My idea was to simply get the length of the current AR array, modulo it, get how many full divisions I got and then use that in a loop to iterate n times over a module to deploy the rules sequentially (due to 'batchSize()' not working. However modulo only returns the 'rest', does not return the actual division value.

Wouldn't it make sense to also include an output of how many times it could divide?

eg. Result of

var d = 17 % 4
d.value = 1
d.divisionValue = 4

My current solution is to get the module, subtract it from the total count and divide it to get the actual count.

I think I might've overthinked it - normal division should work aswell.

It didn't even work with batchsize(1). What I've found is that for example:

I had >100 AR in the initial json which I parse to deploy the analytic rules
It would fail no matter what batchsize I would set:
As far as I remember I tested:

• 49 (due to AR limitation of max 50 at a time! NB!: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/sentinel/import-export-analytics-rules#:~:text=You%20can%20import%20up%20to%2050%20analytics%20rules%20from%20a%20single%20ARM%20template%20file.)
• 10
• 1
• no batchsize decorator

Only when truncated it to like 30 it would go through (arbitrary number, but I bet that if I'd trunc it to 49 it would work)

Okay, thank you for the extra information.

Do you mind sharing that doc link on the main issue? The 50 limit.

It's the link under the '49'

No worries, I shared the info that you provided, over there.
