Hi Don,

So glad to see it worked. If you want to know more about how to use the Python SDK, the official documentation http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-sdk/ would introduce you the detailed guidance.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to post here.

Regards,

Joey

That WORKED just great. I am still trying to understand the services/service stuff. I was trying something similar earlier, but I was using

connection.system_service().vnic_profiles_service().vnic_profile_service(), I understand now from your code on what is going on and why was going down the wrong road.

Thanks again for your help

I am still not quite getting it. I am trying the below code and where it is commented out, I have tried different things, but I am no table to update the name of the object that I have found.

networks_service = connection.system_service().networks_service()

network = networks_service.list(

    search='name=ovirtmgmt and datacenter=%s-local' % HOSTNAME) [0]

print ("Network name is %s" % network.name)

print ("Network id is %s" % network.id)

vnics = connection.follow_link(network.vnic_profiles)

#vnicsprofile_service = connection.system_service().vnic_profile_service()

#vnicprofile_service = vnic_profiles_service.vnic_profile_service(vnics.id)

Hi Don,

The var `vnics` is actually a List, so the statement `vnics.id` would produce errors.

The following codes could successfully update the name of a vnicprofile, probably meets your needs.

```python

vnics = connection.follow_link(network.vnic_profiles)

# Iterate the var `vnics` would be better.

vnic_service = connection.system_service().vnic_profiles_service().profile_service(vnics[0].id)
vnic_service.update(

     types.VnicProfile(
         name='the-new-name',

     )

)

vnic = vnic_service.get()
print('new name', vnic.name)

```

If the above codes could not work as expected, please let me know.

Regards,

Joey

for dev in vnics:

    print ("Dev name is %s" % dev.name)

#    vnicprofile_service.update(types.VnicProfile(

#       name='%s' % HOSTNAME,

#       ),

#    )

connection.close()

./update-vnic.py 

Network name is ovirtmgmt

Network id is 740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4

Dev name is ovirtmgmt

Thanks

Hi Don,

Please using `network.vnic_profiles` instead of `network.vnicprofiles` as the parameter of  `connection.follow_link`.

Hi

I am trying to write some code to update the names of existing vnicprofiles in ovirt-4.2. The problem I am having is trying to follow the links to the vnicprofiles. Below is web info that I am trying to get:

<network href="/ovirt-engine/api/networks/740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4" id="740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4"><name>ovirtmgmt</name><description>LOOKING</description><comment/><link href="/ovirt-engine/api/networks/740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4/permissions" rel="permissions"/><link href="/ovirt-engine/api/networks/740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4/vnicprofiles" rel="vnicprofiles"/><link href="/ovirt-engine/api/networks/740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4/networklabels" rel="networklabels"/><mtu>0</mtu><stp>false</stp><usages><usage>vm</usage></usages><vlan id="4050"/><data_center href="/ovirt-engine/api/datacenters/1d00d32b-abdc-43cd-b990-257aaf01d514" id="1d00d32b-abdc-43cd-b990-257aaf01d514"/></network>

Below is the code that I am trying to do the same thing and I want to follow the vnicprofiles link to get to the actual data that I want to change:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import logging

import time

import string

import sys

import os

import MySQLdb

import ovirtsdk4 as sdk

import ovirtsdk4.types as types

#logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG, filename='/tmp/addhost.log')

### Variables to be used ###

#NUMANODE = 3

#MEM = 20

GB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024

#MEMORY = MEM * GB

GB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024

URL = 'https://host/ovirt-engine/api'

CAFILE = '/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem'

USERNAME = 'admin@internal'

PASSWORD = 'password'

HOSTNAME = 'rvs06'

connection = sdk.Connection(

    url=URL,

    username=USERNAME,

    password=PASSWORD,

#    ca_file='ca.pem',

    debug='True',

    insecure='True',

#    log=logging.getLogger(),

)

#dcs_service = connection.system_service().data_centers_service()

#dc = dcs_service.list(search='cluster=%s-local' % HOSTNAME)[0]

#network = dcs_service.service(dc.id).networks_service()

networks_service = connection.system_service().networks_service()

network = networks_service.list(

    search='name=ovirtmgmt and datacenter=%s-local' % HOSTNAME) [0]

print ("Network name is %s" % network.name)

print ("Network id is %s" % network.id)

vnic = connection.follow_link(network.vnicprofiles)

connection.close()

Below is the output of my code:

./update-vnic.py 

Network name is ovirtmgmt

Network id is 740cae1f-c49f-4563-877a-5ce173e83be4

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "./update-vnic.py", line 46, in <module>

    vnic = connection.follow_link(network.vnicprofiles)

AttributeError: 'Network' object has no attribute 'vnicprofiles'

The network name and network id is correct. Any help would be appreciated on what I am missing or what I am doing wrong. The actual updating of the name with code isn't written yet as I can't get past this part.

Thanks

Don
