Help needed to get redfishtest working

[berrfred]

Sending requests to an iLO using the python-ilorest-library just works fine, either using basic or session auth, I do get the json output with e.g. all the temperatures.

#!/usr/bin/python3

import json
import redfish

ilo_host="https://10.224.115.109"
ilo_account="Administrator"
ilo_password="xxx"

REDFISH_OBJ = redfish.RedfishClient(base_url=ilo_host, username=ilo_account, password=ilo_password)
REDFISH_OBJ.login(auth="basic")
response = REDFISH_OBJ.get("/redfish/v1/Chassis/1/Thermal/")
print(json.dumps(response.dict, indent = 1))

I'd like to achieve the same thing using libredfish and associated plugin in collectd, however it seems to give the same error I get while trying with redfishtest.

./redfishtest -v -H "https://10.224.115.109" -u Administrator -p xxx -W verdoc /redfish/v1/Chassis/1/Thermal/
Got a failure, httpCode = 65535

./redfishtest -v -H "https://10.224.115.109" -u Administrator -p xxx -W verdoc -S /redfish/v1/Chassis/1/Thermal/
Unable to create service enumerator

journalctl -f -u collectd.service
giu 01 12:39:15 hp-probook-450-g5-fred collectd[38042]: redfish: Query has failed, HTTP code = 65535

Help appreciated to understand what I am missing ... I hope that if I can understand what's wrong with redfishtest then I have a chance to also get collectd plugin right since they basically use the same parameters.

Redfishtest does not use URIs directly. It uses Redpath, (see the README or the Redpath spec). So for this case the Redpath would be "/Chassis[0]/Thermal" which translates to the chassis collection, the first entry in that collection, then the Thermal node under that resource.

@berrfred were you able to try the above suggestion?

Well I got the point for the redfishtest but that does not solve my issue with collectd plugin ... in the end I chose to run my python piece of code as a collectd exec and that does the job. Thanks

Closing; let us know if you need more help with the library.
