Vplex Restapi
I am trying to achieve "array re-discover" with RestAPI however i am getting the following error message.
Any idea, what have i missed out? Thanks
curl -k -H "Username:XXXX" -H "Password:XXXX" -d {"args": " array re-discover"} -X POST https://XX.XXX.XX.XX/vplex/clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/storage-arrays/EMC-XXXXXXXXXX/
{
"response": {
"context": null,
"message": null,
"exception": "POST request not supported for a context.",
"custom-data": null
}
No Events found!

Hi Jeffrey -
Couple things, as the array re-discover is a global command you need to write the curl command a bit differently and as the --force option is required at the cli level you will need it in the curl command as well. Try this and see if it works for you,
curl -k -H "Username:xxxxxx" -H Password:xxxxxxxx" -d '{"args": "-a /clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/storage-arrays/ "}' -X POST ' https://xx.xx.xx.xx/vplex/array+re-discover -f'

Hello Baron,
Thank you for your earlier post. I am trying to get the list of storage view but I am not able to. Could you please see whats wrong in my command.
curl -k -H "Username:xxxxx" -H Password:xxxxxx" -d '{"args": "-a /clusters/cluster-2/exports/storage-views"}' -X GET 'https://XX.XX.XX.XXX/vplex/clusters/cluster-1/exports/storage-views/'

Try the following:
curl -k -s \
-H "Username:******" \
-H "Password:******" \
-H "Accept: application/json;format=1;prettyprint=0" \
-o OUTPUT-FILE \
"https://VPLEX-MGMT-IP/vplex/clusters/cluster-*/exports/storage-views"
where OUTPUT-FILE is the name of the output file and VPLEX-MGMT-IP is the TCP/IP address or DNS name of the VPLEX management server.
