Set ESKM username password - 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)

Example 38: Set ESKM username password =============================

The method ex38_set_ESKM_username_password takes an instance of rest object ( or redfish object if using Redfish API ) and a ESKM username, password and account group settings as arguments.

def ex38_set_ESKM_username_password(restobj, username, password, accountgroup):

:

Find and get the ESKM settings URI from the systems resources collection.

instances = restobj.search_for_type("ESKM.")

:

For the ESKM settings, prepare the request body with the ESKM settings we want to change and perform the PATCH request.

for instance in instances:
    body = dict()

    body["KeyManagerConfig"] = dict()
    body["KeyManagerConfig"]["LoginName"] = username
    body["KeyManagerConfig"]["Password"] = password
    body["KeyManagerConfig"]["AccountGroup"] = accountgroup
    body["KeyManagerConfig"]["ESKMLocalCACertificateName"] = ""

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

:

A successful PATCH response will set the ESKM settings to the new values provided in ESKM settings, however the changes will go into effect only after a system reset or reboot.
