Add Blade CIMC OOB Network Info using ucsmsdk

mystique99 · ‎04-20-2020

I'm trying to automate the assignment of the CIMC OOB mgmt interface network info (IP/GW/Mask) using ucsmsdk. It appears that the correct object is 'MgmtIf' but the properties ext_ip, ext_gw, ext_mask are all set to "access: READ_ONLY". Is there some other object that I can use to actually set these values?

Hi @mystique99

That should be the correct managed object indeed. Have you tried to modify it? What is the result?

I only have UCS-C managed by FIs, so I cannot really test your scenario. For me it shows mgmtIf access="unspecified".

Cheers,

Sergiu
