... which brings up the question: why do you need to access it Germano?

Just sending a simple change to the sos plugin, and I need to pass a constant.

Hi Nir, thanks for helping.

Well, the value is part of the schema AFAICS. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but this is what I get:

1. I want to set domainClass on a getStorageDomains() call.

# vdsm-client Host getStorageDomains -h
usage: vdsm-client Host getStorageDomains [-h] [arg=value [arg=value ...]]

positional arguments:
arg=value   storageType: Limit to Domains of this StorageDomainType
              storagepoolID: Limit to Domains belonging to this Storage Pool
              remotePath: Limit to Domains having this remotePath.
              domainClass: Limit to Domains of this StorageDomainImageClass   <---------------


              JSON representation:
              {
                  "storageType": {
                      "StorageDomainType": "enum ['FCP', 'CIFS', 'UNKNOWN', 'ISCSI', 'GLUSTERFS', 'LOCALFS', 'NFS', 'SHAREDFS']"
                  },
                  "storagepoolID": {
                      "UUID": "UUID"
                  },
                  "remotePath": "string",
                  "domainClass": {
                      "StorageDomainImageClass": "enum ['Iso', 'Data', 'Backup', 'Unknown']"
                  }
              }

This is its type:

    StorageDomainImageClass: &StorageDomainImageClass
        added: '3.1'
        description: An enumeration of Storage Domain classes.
        name: StorageDomainImageClass
        type: enum
        values:
            Backup: The Storage Domain is used for import and export of disk
                images
            Data: The Storage Domain is used for virtual machine disk images
            Iso: The Storage Domain is used for storing ISO images
            Unknown: The class is not known

But if I do this (or in sos.py)

# vdsm-client Host getStorageDomains domainClass=Data

Then the "Data" parameter ends up a unicode 'Data' and the comparison to the actual integer constant (1=DATA_DOMAIN) returns False, giving me no storage domains at all:

2018-06-12 13:58:31,266+1000 INFO (jsonrpc/5) [vdsm.api] START getStorageDomainsList(spUUID=None, domainClass=u'Data', storageType=None, remotePath=None, options=None) from=::1,60192, task_id=be93ee8d-d4d4-42c2-a292-9aeadf88e3da (api:46)
2018-06-12 13:58:31,608+1000 INFO (jsonrpc/5) [vdsm.api] FINISH getStorageDomainsList return={'domlist': []} from=::1,60192, task_id=be93ee8d-d4d4-42c2-a292-9aeadf88e3da (api:52)

That is why I'm trying to import the constant from the API.

Am I missing something? Is there a special way to use these values defined by enums?
