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?

It seems to me that you did start the plugin without "-o" option...
Without -o plugin uses username + password authentication (to be compatible with RHEV 3.0, oVirt 3.0 - especially to not break existing setups): $ ./check_rhev3 -H localhost -f authfile -D -vvv [V] REST-API: cookie filename: cmhldm0tYWRtaW5AaW50ZXJuYWwK [D] rhev_connect: Using username and password authentication.
With -o a cookie file it uses username + password when the cookie file is missing (first call): $ ./check_rhev3 -H localhost -f authfile -D -vvv -o [V] REST-API: cookie filename: cmhldm0tYWRtaW5AaW50ZXJuYWwK [D] rhev_connect: Using cookie authentication. [D] rhev_connect: No cookie file found - using username and password
And uses session cookie if it exists: $ ./check_rhev3 -H localhost -f authfile -D -vvv -o [V] REST-API: cookie filename: cmhldm0tYWRtaW5AaW50ZXJuYWwK [D] rhev_connect: Using cookie authentication. [D] rhev_connect: Using cookie: JSESSIONID=wbYehfrValieFzkv6GBWes-g
Please try again with "-o".

Thanks, Itamar
Hi Rene,
I expect most will fail on this -o. maybe add auto-detection of version or engine capabilities to try and use it, else failback to use/password?
Thanks, Itamar
That sounds like a good idea - thanks! Will think on how I can implement it - either store engine version/capability into a temp file or query version/capability. I think a temp file is the better solutions as I don't need an additional API call...
Regards, René
michael - is there a rest api capability that can be used to test support of user level api?
api maintains <features> section for the features been added in the version, check if you see something related to the "user level api" (if you don't, - this is a bug). -- Michael Pasternak RedHat, ENG-Virtualization R&D
