configRemoteResolveDn method not implemented #37

Open vallard opened 6 years ago

vallard commented 6 years ago

Description

I tried to get the FSM from each blade in UCS Central. The XML output tells me to do this I should be doing the call: 

<configRemoteResolveDn
dn="sys/chassis-1/blade-3/fsm"
cookie="SECURED"
inHierarchical="false"
inDomainId="1009">
</configRemoteResolveDn>

This method, however, does not show up on any of the libraries that are automatically generated.

What I Did

I looked through the code to see if there was some other way to get around this limitation but after searching and trying for 4-6 hours I'm struggling to find an answer.

It looks like what I'll need is configRemoteResolveChildren as well to get all the FSM status of the systems. As I've been hacking through the call I need to run is: 

out = handle.rawXML('''
<configRemoteResolveChildren
    cookie="{3}"
    inDn="sys/chassis-{1}/blade-{2}/fsm"
    inDomainId="{0}"
    inHierarchical="true">
        <inFilter>
        </inFilter>
</configRemoteResolveChildren>'''.format("1009", "1", "3", handle.cookie))

Where I created a subclass of UcscHandle and added the rawXML method. 

class EUcscHandle(UcscHandle):

    def rawXML(self, xml):
        # send the XML to UCS Central
        response_str = self.post_xml(xml, dme="resource-mgr")

The response comes back as I'd like, but now I need to format the objects. Since configRemoteResolveChildren is not recognized in the list I need to add the class. Dirty hack, but I seem to be making progress.
