Hi Rene,
we deployed the plugin and noticed its flooding the event log with login events for the user its using via the REST API. can you please add persistent session to the REST API calls so login will happen only once and won't flood the log?
It's one of the features in the latest version (1.2):
-o, --cookie Use cookie based authenticated sessions (requires RHEV >= 3.1)
I implemented it in the following way: - Plugin checks if file with session cookie exists (per default in /var/tmp) - If not: login with username and password (that's why you need to specify auth pair or authfile) and fetch JSESSIONID -- Writes ID into session cookie file - If cookie file is found: login using JSESSIONID and ignore username and password. So you can change username/password and login will still work. - If login using session ID fails and cookie file exists, it will be deleted and a login with username and password is tried the next time the plugin is executed
If you start the script with -vvv you can see if login is down with auth session or with username/password...
I didn't test it with oVirt 3.2 (yet), but works fine in RHEV 3.1.
well, we are trying it with next version of RHEV actually :) sasha - can you please start the script with -vvv to provide the log for login behavior? Thanks, Itamar
