pypowervm 1.1.27

NOTE
Current versions should utilize the local authentication mechanism. The remote
authentication mechanism is intended only for development and test purposes for
the time being.

Overview
pypowervm provides a Python-based API wrapper for interaction with IBM
PowerVM-based systems.

License
The library’s license can be found in the LICENSE file. It must be
reviewed prior to use.

Project Structure

debian/: Debian packaging metadata and controls.
pypowervm/: Project source code.

helpers/: Decorator methods suitable for passing to the helpers
parameter of the pypowervm.adapter.Adapter initializer.
locale/: Translated message files for internationalization (I18N).
tasks/: Modules for performing complex tasks on PowerVM objects.

monitor/: Modules for tasks specific to the PowerVM Performance and
Capacity Monitoring (PCM) API.

tests/: Functional and unit tests. The directory and file structure
mirrors that of the project code. For example, tests for module
pypowervm/wrappers/logical_partition.py can be found in
pypowervm/tests/wrappers/test_logical_partition.py.

data/: Data files used by test cases. These are generally XML dumps
obtained from real PowerVM REST API servers, often via the utilities
found in pypowervm/tests/test_utils/.
helpers/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/helpers/.
locale/: Directory structure containing sample
internationalization (I18N) files for I18N testing.
tasks/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/tasks/.

monitor/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/tasks/monitor/.

test_utils/: Utilities useful for test development and implementation.
utils/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/utils/.
wrappers/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/wrappers/.

pcm/: Tests for modules under pypowervm/wrappers/pcm/.

utils/: Common helper utilities.
wrappers/: Modules presenting intuitive hierarchical views and controls
on PowerVM REST objects. Simple operations involving getting or setting single,
independent attributes on an object are handled by the wrappers defined here.

pcm/: Wrapper modules specific to the PowerVM Performance and Capacity
Monitoring (PCM) API.

Using Sonar
To enable sonar code scans through tox there are a few steps involved.

Install sonar locally. See: http://www.sonarqube.org/downloads/
Create a host mapping in /etc/hosts for the name ‘sonar-server’. If the
sonar server were on the local host then the entry might be:
127.0.0.1 sonar-server
Alternatively, you can set the environment variable SONAR_SERVER prior to
invoking tox, to specify the server to use.

The following environment variable must be set in order to log onto the
sonar server:
SONAR_USER
SONAR_PASSWORD
An example invocation:
# SONAR_USER=user SONAR_PASSWORD=password tox -e sonar

Sonar output is placed in:
.sonar/

Developer Notes

The property pypowervm.base_partition.IOSlot.adapter is deprecated and
will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2017. It has been replaced by
the pypowervm.base_partition.IOSlot.io_adapter property. Removal will
break compatibility with PowerVC 1.3.0.0 and 1.3.0.1. The issue is resolved
as of PowerVC 1.3.0.2.
The xag argument to the pypowervm.wrappers.entry_wrapper.EntryWrapper.update
method is deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2017.
The xags member of the pypowervm.wrappers.virtual_io_server.VIOS
class is deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2017.
Please use the members of pypowervm.const.XAG instead.
Remote Restart in a NovaLink environment is handled by the consuming
management layer, not by NovaLink itself. As such, the properties
rr_enabled and rr_state of pypowervm.wrappers.logical_partition.LPAR
should not be used. These properties are now deprecated and will be removed
no sooner than January 1st, 2017. Use the srr_enabled property instead.
The method pypowervm.tasks.storage.crt_lu_linked_clone is deprecated and
will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2017. You should now use the
pypowervm.tasks.storage.crt_lu method to create a linked clone by passing
the source image LU wrapper via the clone parameter.
The Adapter cache is removed as of release 1.0.0.4. Attempting to
create an Adapter with use_cache=True will result in a
CacheNotSupportedException.
The property pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.pci_sub_dev_id is
deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2019. It has been
replaced by the pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.pci_subsys_dev_id
property.
The property pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.pci_revision_id is
deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2019. It has been
replaced by the pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.pci_rev_id
property.
The property pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.pci_sub_vendor_id is
deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2019. It has been
replaced by the pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.pci_subsys_vendor_id
property.
The property pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.dyn_reconfig_conn_index
is deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2019. It has
been replaced by the pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.drc_index
property.
The property pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.dyn_reconfig_conn_name
is deprecated and will be removed no sooner than January 1st, 2019. It has been
replaced by the pypowervm.wrappers.managed_system.IOSlot.drc_name
property.
Passing an arbitrary dictionary into the add_parms argument of
pypowervm.tasks.power.power_on and power_off is deprecated. Consumers
should migrate to using pypowervm.tasks.power_opts.PowerOnOpts and
PowerOffOpts instead.
The pypowervm.tasks.power.power_off method is deprecated and will be
removed no sooner than January 1st, 2019. Consumers should migrate to using
pypowervm.tasks.power.PowerOp.stop for single power-off; or
pypowervm.tasks.power.power_off_progressive for soft-retry flows.
