Get AHS data

If not created already, create an instance of Rest or Redfish Object using the RestObject or RedfishObject class respectively. The class constructor takes iLO hostname/ ip address, iLO login username and password as arguments. The class also initializes a login session, gets systems resources and message registries.

Rest Object creation:

REST_OBJ = RestObject(iLO_host, login_account, login_password)

Redfish Object creation:

REDFISH_OBJ = RedfishObject(iLO_host, login_account, login_password)

Example 46: Get AHS data

The method ex46_get_ahs_data takes an instance of rest object ( or redfish object if using Redfish API ) as an argument.

def ex46_get_ahs_data(restobj):

Send HTTP GET request to manager URI '/rest/v1/Manager'.

response = restobj.rest_get("/rest/v1/Manager.")

From the response body find the ActiveHealthSystem URI.

for instance in instances:
    tmp = restobj.rest_get(instance["href"])
    response = restobj.rest_get(tmp.dict["Oem"]["Hp"]["links"]\
                                ["ActiveHealthSystem"]["href"])

Get the extref link for download through GET request.

ahslink = restobj.rest_get(response.dict["links"]["AHSLocation"]\
                               ["extref"])

Create and write to a binary file.

with open("data.ahs", 'wb') as ahsoutput:
    ahsoutput.write(ahslink.read)
    ahsoutput.close()
