Module netapp_ontap.resources.autosupport

Copyright © 2019 NetApp Inc. All rights reserved.

Overview

AutoSupport is NetApp's call home mechanism. AutoSupport sends configuration details, status details, and error reporting details to NetApp.

This endpoint supports both GET and PATCH calls. GET is used to retrieve AutoSupport configuration details for the cluster and PATCH is used to modify the AutoSupport configuration of the cluster. GET calls can also be used to check AutoSupport connectivity.


Examples

Configuring 'to' addresses

The following example configures AutoSupport to send emails to 'to' addresses.

# The API:
PATCH /support/autosupport
# The call:
curl -X PATCH "https://<mgmt-ip>/api/support/autosupport" -H "accept: application/hal+json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{ \"to\": [ \"abc@netapp.com\", \"xyz@netapp.com\" ]}"
# The response:
200 OK
{}

Configuring 'SMTP' transport

The following example configures AutoSupport to use 'SMTP' transport. The default transport is 'HTTPS'.

# The API:
PATCH /support/autosupport
# The call:
curl -X PATCH "https://<mgmt-ip>/api/support/autosupport" -H "accept: application/hal+json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{ \"transport\": \"smtp\"}"
# The response:
200 OK
{}

Retrieving the AutoSupport configuration

The following example retrieves AutoSupport configuration for the cluster.

# The API:
GET /support/autosupport
# The call:
curl -X GET "https://<mgmt-ip>/api/support/autosupport" -H "accept: application/hal+json" OR
curl -X GET "https://<mgmt-ip>/api/support/autosupport?fields=*" -H "accept: application/hal+json"
# The response:
200 OK

Retrieving AutoSupport connectivity issues

The following example retrieves AutoSupport connectivity issues for the cluster. The fields=issues parameter must be specified, for the response to return any connectivity issues. The corrective_action section might contain commands which needs to be executed on the ONTAP CLI.

Note that the connectivity check can take up to 10 seconds to complete.

curl -X GET "https://<mgmt-ip>/api/support/autosupport?fields=issues" -H "accept: application/hal+json"

Classes

class Autosupport (*args, **kwargs)

Allows interaction with Autosupport objects on the host

Initialize the instance of the resource.

Any keyword arguments are set on the instance as properties. For example, if the class was named 'MyResource', then this statement would be true:

MyResource(name='foo').name == 'foo'

Args

*args
Each positional argument represents a parent key as used in the URL of the object. That is, each value will be used to fill in a segment of the URL which refers to some parent object. The order of these arguments must match the order they are specified in the URL, from left to right.
**kwargs
each entry will have its key set as an attribute name on the instance and its value will be the value of that attribute.

Methods

def get(self, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Retrieves the AutoSupport configuration of the cluster and if requested, returns any connectivity issues with the AutoSupport configuration.


Important note: * The issues field consists of a list of objects containing details of the node that has a connectivity issue, the issue description, and corrective action you can take to address the issue. When not empty, this indicates a connection issue to the HTTP/S, SMTP, or AutoSupport On Demand server.

Expensive properties

There is an added cost to retrieving values for these properties. They are not included by default in GET results and must be explicitly requested using the fields query parameter. See DOC Requesting specific fields to learn more. * issues

  • system node autosupport show -instance
  • system node autosupport check show-details

Learn more


Fetch the details of the object from the host.

Requires the keys to be set (if any). After returning, new or changed properties from the host will be set on the instance.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

def patch(self, hydrate: bool = False, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: typing.Union = None, poll_timeout: typing.Union = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Updates the AutoSupport configuration for the entire cluster.

  • system node autosupport modify

Learn more


Send the difference in the object's state to the host as a modification request.

Calculates the difference in the object's state since the last time we interacted with the host and sends this in the request body.

Args

hydrate
If set to True, after the response is received from the call, a a GET call will be made to refresh all fields of the object.
poll
If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
poll_interval
If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
poll_timeout
If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
**kwargs
Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400
