Description Andrew Robinson 2019-04-15 16:10:52 UTC

Description of problem:


Customer Commvault is using RHHI to package a backup solution as an appliance. The opened a support case asking this: "Does RHEV supports the RedFish API for Host Power management and if not is there any plans to add it? Currently the BMC we're using only supports ipmi over lan or redfish and there are some security concerns with using IPMI."


I asked in #sbr-virt, and the answer I got was "I think fence-agent for RedFish API was included in RHEL as per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1666848 . I can't see it in RHV. Probably need an RFE."


Consequently, I'm filing this RFE. Can the RedFish API for power management be added to RHEV?

Don't worry, Andrew, we'll ask you for anything else we need

Comment 2 Sandro Bonazzola 2019-04-16 09:11:57 UTC

On RHV-H side, the fence-agents-redfish is already included. If something is missing, it's probably the handling of this agent on engine side.
