C.4 Assigning a Drive from the CLI
Drive assignment from the CLI requires Curl and Python with the json.tools module installed
in a Linux environment. (Recommended versions: Curl 7.35.0 or later, Python 2.7.6 or later).
When assigning drives to hosts, start with the drives located closest to the front of the system
and work your way back. Also, alternate between sleds so that the drives used by each host
are spread between both sleds.
Getting Drive Information
1. Access a command line interface connected to the SSG-136R-N32JBF system.
2. To get drive information for a given zone, run the following command:
$ curl -k --user ADMIN:ADMIN -X GET https://<IP Address>/redfish/
v1/Fabrics/1/Zones/1 | python -m json.tool
For <IP Address> use the IP address of the system (see Section C.5). For "Zones/1" replace
"1" with the zone number corresponding to the host for which you are getting drive information.
In the output (see next page for example), the first item listed under "Endpoints" is the zone
number, and subsequent items are drive endpoint numbers.
