Start Report

  • Description – start a new report
  • Request URL – POST /ufmRest/reports/<report_type>
  • Request Content Type – Application/json
  • Note
    • report_type should be one of the following: Fabric_Health, UFM_Health, or Topology_Compare

      At least 1 parameter should be passed to the API.

      Name

      ValuesDefaultDependent On*Description

      duplicate_nodes

      Boolean

      False

      Lists all nodes with same node description. Does not include switches with the same description.

      map_guids_descBooleanFalseduplicate_nodesEnables the usage of a mapping file (between node GUID and node description) when running duplicate node description analysis of the fabric
      ufm_alarmsBooleanFalse
      Lists all open alarms in UFM
      sm_stateBooleanFalse

      Verifies that:

      • There is only one active (master) Subnet Manager in the fabric;
      • The master is selected according to highest priority and lowest port GUID;
      • The report lists all SMs in the fabric with their attributes
      firmwareBooleanFalse
      Checks for firmware inconsistencies. For each device model in the fabric, the test finds the latest installed version of the firmware and reports devices with older versions.
      cablesBooleanFalse
      Reports cable information as stored in EEPROM on each port: cable vendor, type, length and serial number
      cables_errors_onlyBooleanFalseCableserrors_only flag for cables
      non_opt_linksBooleanFalse
      Performs a full-fabric discovery and reports 'non-responsive' ports with their path
      non_opt_speed_widthBooleanFalse
      Enables link speed and link width checks
      link_speed["ALL", "SDR", "DDR", "QDR",
      "FDR_10", "FDR", "EDR"]
      "ALL"non_opt_speed_widthChecks if link speed is optimally used
      Link_width["ALL", "SDR", "DDR", "QDR",
      "FDR_10", "FDR", "EDR"]
      "ALL"non_opt_speed_widthChecks if link width is optimally used
      eye_openBooleanFalse
      Lists Eye-Opener information for each link
      min_boundInteger22eye_openMinimum bound for eye_open check
      max_boundInteger65eye_open

      Maximum bound for eye_open check

      eye_open_errors_onlyBooleanFalseeye_openerrors_only flag for eye_open
      duplicate_zero_and_lidsBooleanFalse
      Lists all ports with same LID or zero LID value
      effective_ber_checkBooleanTrue
      Lists errors and warnings for Effective Ber
      phy_port_gradeBooleanFalse
      Physical port grade information

      For example: “map_guids_desc” is dependent on “duplicate_nodes” in the sense that to set “map_guids_desc”, “duplicate_nodes” has to be set to True.
