First create an instance of Rest or Redfish Object using the RestObject or RedfishObject class respectively. The class constructor takes iLO hostname/ ip address formatted as a string (“https://xx.xx.xx.xx”), 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_https_host, login_account, login_password)

Redfish Object creation:

REDFISH_OBJ = RedfishObject(iLO_https_host, login_account, login_password)

Example 47: Clear AHS data

The method ex47_clear_ahs_data takes an instance of rest object (or redfish object if using Redfish API) as an argument.

def ex47_clear_ahs_data(restobj):

Search for Manager URI type.

instances = restobj.search_for_type("Manager.")

Set body to the ClearLog action, then set the response to the ActiveHealthSystem URI.

for instance in instances:
    tmp = restobj.rest_get(instance["href"])
    body = {"Action": "ClearLog"}
    response = restobj.rest_get(tmp.dict["Oem"]["Hp"]["links"]\
                                        ["ActiveHealthSystem"]["href"], body)
