Description Charles Rose (Dell) 2020-09-01 21:15:07 UTC

Description of problem:
On a Dell PowerEdge R740, When the USB NIC redfish interface on iDRAC is enabled, redfish-finder fails with the error shown below.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redfish-finder-0.3-4.el8.noarch

How reproducible:
Always when "Host IP Assignment Type" in dmi type 42 is DHCP.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install redfish-finder
2. Start redfish-finder service
3. systemd unit start fails

Actual results:
redfish-finder: Getting dmidecode info
redfish-finder: Unexpected error while parsing HostConfig!
redfish-finder: Building NetworkManager connection info
redfish-finder: Obtaining OS config info
redfish-finder: Converting SMBIOS Host Config to NetworkManager Connection info
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/redfish-finder", line 535, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/redfish-finder", line 523, in main
    if smbios_info.hostconfig.generate_nm_config(smbios_info.device, conn) == False:
  File "/usr/bin/redfish-finder", line 174, in generate_nm_config
    for i in range(len(self.assigntype)):
AttributeError: 'HostConfig' object has no attribute 'assigntype'

Expected results:
redfish-finder starts without error and pinging 'redfish-localhost' should succeed.
