GetFirmwareInventoryREDFISH.py - Enhancement request: Add or create new version to save to network share #300

Closed srcauley closed 5 months ago

srcauley commented 5 months ago

Apologies if this is not the right place for this inquiry.

Is there any way to get an updated or separate version of this script that saves to a network share similar to ExportHWInventoryREDFISH.py or ExportSystemConfigurationNetworkShareREDFISH.py? Any plans for this?

Hi @srcauley

Currently there is no iDRAC support to only export firmware inventory details to a network share. ExportHWInventoryREDFISH.py script output will contain firmware inventory details along with hardware details, look for FirmwareVersion string in the XML which will report the firmware version for each component.

Example snippet from export hardware inventory XML:

<PROPERTY NAME="FQDD" TYPE="string">
<VALUE>iDRAC.Embedded.1-1</VALUE>
<DisplayValue>iDRAC.Embedded.1-1</DisplayValue>
</PROPERTY>
<PROPERTY NAME="FirmwareVersion" TYPE="string">
<VALUE>7.10.30.00</VALUE>
<DisplayValue>7.10.30.00</DisplayValue>
</PROPERTY>

Thanks Tex
