Dump ESKM Event Log

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 41: Dump ESKM Event Log

The method def ex41_dump_eskm_event_log takes an instance of rest object ( or redfish object if using Redfish API ) as argument.

def ex41_dump_eskm_event_log(restobj):

Find and get the SecurityService URI from the systems resources collection.

instances = restobj.search_for_type("SecurityService.")

Send HTTP GET request to log ESKM URI(s).

for instance in instances:
    tmp = restobj.rest_get(instance["href"])
    response = restobj.rest_get(tmp.dict["links"]["ESKM"]["href"])
    for entry in response.dict["ESKMEvents"]:
        sys.stdout.write(entry["Timestamp"] + "\n" \
                         + entry["Event"] + "\n")

A successful GET response fetch ESKM Events along with a timestamp.
