Extracting a script from a configured Onboard Administrator using REST APIs

When you perform a GET operation on an enclosure, the script URI is returned inside of the response body.

  1. Select an enclosure.

    GET /rest/logical-enclosures

  2. Get the enclosure using the URI from step 1.

    GET {id}/rest/logical-enclosures/

  3. Get the script using the configuration script URI returned in step 2.

    GET {id}/rest/logical-enclosures//script

For security, the retrieved current configuration does not contain any user passwords. You can manually edit the script to add the user passwords after the user name on the ADD USER lines.
