server_hardware_facts

[pawelfi]

Hello. It looks that optional fields in gathering information about server hardware utilization don't work.

- name: Gather all facts about a Server Hardware
  oneview_server_hardware_facts:
    hostname: 172.16.101.48
    username: administrator
    password: my_password
    api_version: 1200
    name: "Encl1, bay 1"
    options:
      - utilization:           # optional
          fields: 'AveragePower'
          filter: ['startDate=2016-05-30T03:29:42.000Z']
          view: 'day'
  delegate_to: localhost
- debug: var=server_hardware_utilization

Instead of values it shows "Warning" array

When using just this code:

- name: Gather all facts about a Server Hardware
  oneview_server_hardware_facts:
    hostname: 172.16.101.48
    username: administrator
    password: my_password
    api_version: 1200
    name: "Encl1, bay 1"
    options:
      - utilization
  delegate_to: localhost
- debug: var=server_hardware_utilization

It showes me output for AveragePower, cpuUtilization.... just not formated but like a lot of json data:

"metricSamples": [
1702053300000,
244
]
[.....

Could you please check the issue?

Hi @pawelfi thank you for raising the issue. We will look into it and get back to you.

Hi @pawelfi we tried running the script you have shared and it seems to be working fine. Could you please elaborate on the issue. If you get any warning array could you share the warning message which you are getting.
