Reset iLO - HewlettPackard/python-ilorest-library GitHub Wiki

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)

The method ex19_reset_ilo takes an instance of rest object( or redfish object if using Redfish API) as argument.

def ex19_reset_ilo(restobj):

Find and get the system resource for manager.

instances = restobj.search_for_type("Manager.")

Action reset request is added for the POST request body.

for instance in instances:
     body = {"Action": "Reset"}

POST request for iLO reset is performed and response status is checked.

response = restobj.rest_post(instance["href"], body)
restobj.error_handler(response)
