Get license key

If not created already, create an instance of Rest or Redfish Object using the RestObject or RedfishObject class respectively. The class constructor takes iLO hostname/ ip address, iLO login username and password as arguments. The class also initializes a login session, gets systems resources and message registries.

Rest Object creation:

REST_OBJ = RestObject(iLO_host, login_account, login_password)

Redfish Object creation:

REDFISH_OBJ = RedfishObject(iLO_host, login_account, login_password)

Example 45: Get license key

The method ex45_get_license_key takes an instance of rest object ( or redfish object if using Redfish API ) as argument.

def ex46_get_license_key(restobj):

Find and get the system resource for HpSmartStorageArrayController.

instances = restobj.search_for_type("HpiLOLicense.")

Create a dictionary to hold license results. Create a list of license properties.

license_result = dict()
licenseproperties = ["License", "LicenseKey", "LicenseType"]

Send HTTP GET request to the system URI(s).

for instance in instances:
    response = restobj.rest_get(instance["href"])

For each license property, check the license property from the response body. Then print the value.

for licenseproperty in licenseproperties:
    sys.stdout.write("\t" + licenseproperty + ": " + \
                      str(response.dict[licenseproperty]) + "\n")
