No support for license pools for unmanaged devices in BigIQ 5.0

[torzillo]

We would like to be able to pass in the IP address of the BIGIQ server and the license pool UUID, and have the system make a call to the BIGIQ to license the system for unmanaged devices.

I have modified the onboarding scripts that support the functionality that you mentioned but for versions prior to 5.0. You can find my fork here: https://github.com/alonsocamaro/f5-openstack-image-prep

Not sure about the "unmanged" part of your comment. At least in BIG-IQ prior to 5.0 it is required to register to the BIG-IQ in order to get a license assigned.

Kyle Oliver has mentioned that the URIs have changed slightly for BIG-IQ CM 5.0 and mentioned the following example https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/big-iq-central-management-api-automation-and-programmability-bulk-discovery-import-and-licensing-perl-20846

This is how I have gotten it to work in BigIQ 5.0:

cat license-bigip

!/usr/bin/perl

use JSON; use Data::Dumper; use Getopt::Long;

$bigiq="172.20.50.58"; $poolid="4790de2b-eef5-4428-9357-99ac893a2bc3 "; $bigip="172.20.50.231"; $bigipuser="admin"; $bigippass="abc123"; $bigiquser="admin"; $bigiqpass="abc123";

$result = curl 'https://$bigiq/mgmt/cm/shared/licensing/pools/$poolid/members' -H 'Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8' -H 'Accept: application/json, text/plain, */*' --data-binary '{"deviceAddress":"$bigip","username":"$bigipuser","password":"$bigippass"}' --compressed --insecure -u $bigiquser:$bigiqpass | python -m json.tool;

$jsonresult = decode_json $result;

print "Result = $result\n";

print Dumper ($jsonresult);

Thanks Tony

I'm going to give it a go now.
