# Module `netapp_ontap.resources.software`

Copyright © 2021 NetApp Inc. All rights reserved.

## Overview

You can use the ONTAP cluster software API to retrieve and display relevant information about a software profile, software packages collection, software history collection, and firmware packages collection. This API retrieves the information about all software packages present in the cluster, or a specific software package, or firmware upgrade status.
You can use the POST request to download a software package/firmware from an HTTP or FTP server. The PATCH request provides the option to upgrade the cluster software version. Select the `validate_only` field to validate the package before triggering the update. Set the `version` field to trigger the installation of the package in the cluster. You can pause, resume, or cancel any ongoing software upgrade by selecting `action`. You can use the DELETE request to remove a specific software package present in the cluster.

## Examples

### Retrieving software profile information

The following example shows how to retrieve software and firmware profile information. You can check the validation results after selecting the `validate_only` field. Upgrade progress information is available after an upgrade has started.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Software

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Software()
        resource.get(return_timeout=15)
        print(resource)

### Upgrading the software version

The following example shows how to upgrade cluster software. Set the `version` field to trigger the installation of the package. You can select the `validate_only` field to validate the package before the installation starts. Setting `skip_warning` as `true` ignores the validation warning before the installation starts. Setting the `action` field performs a `pause`, `resume`, or `cancel' operation on an ongoing upgrade. An upgrade can only be resumed if it is in the paused state. Setting`stabilize_minutes` allows each node a specified amount of time to stabilize after a reboot; the default is 8 minutes.
You can start the upgrade process at the cluster level. There are no options available to start the upgrade for a specific node or HA pair.

#### 1. Validating the package and verifying the validation results

The following example shows how to validate a cluster software package. You must validate the package before the software upgrade. Set the `validate_only` field to `true` to start the validation. You can check for validation results in the GET /cluster/software endpoint.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Software

    with HostConnection("<mgmt_ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Software()
        resource.version = "9.5.0"
        resource.patch(hydrate=True, validate_only=True)

The call to validate the software cluster version returns the job UUID, including a HAL link to retrieve details about the job. The job object includes a `state` field and a message to indicate the progress of the job. When the job is complete and the application is fully created, the message indicates success and the `state` field of the job is set to `success`.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Job

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Job(uuid="f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc")
        resource.get()
        print(resource)

Try it out

    Job(
        {
            "code": 0,
            "uuid": "f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc",
            "state": "success",
            "description": "PATCH /api/cluster/software",
            "_links": {
                "self": {"href": "/api/cluster/jobs/f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc"}
            },
            "message": "success",
        }
    )

You can check for validation results in the GET /cluster/software endpoint. The following example shows how to check the validation warnings and errors after setting the `validate_only` field to `true`.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Software

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Software()

#### 2. Updating the cluster

The following example shows how to initiate a cluster software upgrade. You must validate the package before the software upgrade starts. Set the `skip_warnings` field to `true` to skip validation warnings and start the software package upgrade. You can specify the `stabilize_minutes` value between 1 to 60 minutes. Setting `stabilize_minutes` allows each node a specified amount of time to stabilize after a reboot; the default is 8 minutes.

        resource.patch(hydrate=True, skip_warnings=True)

The call to update the software cluster version returns the job UUID, including a HAL link to retrieve details about the job. The job object includes a `state` field and a message to indicate the progress of the job. When the job is complete and the application is fully created, the message indicates success and the `state` field of the job is set to `success`.

                    "action": {
                        "message": "Ensure storage failover is enabled on all nodes of the cluster."
                    },
                },

#### 3. Pausing, resuming or canceling an upgrade

The following example shows how to `pause` an ongoing cluster software package upgrade. Set the `action` field to `pause`, `resume`, or `cancel` to pause, resume or cancel the upgrade respectively. Not all update operations support these actions. An update can only be resumed if it is in the paused state.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Software

    with HostConnection("<mgmt_ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Software()
        resource.version = "9.5.0"
        resource.patch(hydrate=True, action="pause")

The call to update the software cluster version and/or firmware version returns the job UUID, including a HAL link to retrieve details about the job. The job object includes a `state` field and a message to indicate the progress of the job. When the job is complete and the application is fully created, the message indicates success and the `state` field of the job is set to `success`.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Job

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Job(uuid="f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc")
        resource.get()
        print(resource)

Try it out

    Job(
        {
            "code": 0,
            "uuid": "f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc",
            "state": "success",
            "description": "PATCH /api/cluster/software",
            "_links": {
                "self": {"href": "/api/cluster/jobs/f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc"}
            },
            "message": "success",
        }
    )

You can check the progress of the upgrade in the GET /cluster/software endpoint. The following example shows how to check the progress of the pause upgrade state after setting the `action` field to `pause`.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Software

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Software()
        resource.get()
        print(resource)

### Downloading the software package

The following example shows how to download the software/firmware package from an HTTP or FTP server. Provide the `url`, `username`, and `password`, if required, to start the download of the package to the cluster.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import SoftwarePackageDownload

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = SoftwarePackageDownload()
        resource.url = "http://server/package"
        resource.username = "admin"
        resource.password = "*********"
        resource.post(hydrate=True, return_timeout=0)
        print(resource)

Try it out

    SoftwarePackageDownload(
        {"password": "*********", "username": "admin", "url": "http://server/package"}
    )

The call to download the software/firmware package returns the job UUID, including a HAL link to retrieve details about the job. The job object includes a `state` field and a message to indicate the progress of the job. When the job is complete and the application is fully created, the message indicates success and the job `state` field is set to `success`.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Job

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Job(uuid="f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc")
        resource.get()
        print(resource)

Try it out

    Job(
        {
            "code": 0,
            "uuid": "f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc",
            "state": "success",
            "description": "POST /api/cluster/software/download",
            "_links": {
                "self": {"href": "/api/cluster/jobs/f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc"}
            },
            "message": "success",
        }
    )

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import SoftwarePackage

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        print(list(SoftwarePackage.get_collection(return_timeout=15)))

Try it out

    [
        SoftwarePackage(
            {
                "_links": {"self": {"href": "/api/cluster/software/packages/9.7.0"}},
                "version": "9.7.0",
            }
        ),
        SoftwarePackage(
            {
                "_links": {"self": {"href": "/api/cluster/software/packages/9.5.0"}},
                "version": "9.5.0",
            }
        ),
    ]

The following example shows how to retrieve the details of a given cluster software package.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import SoftwarePackage

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = SoftwarePackage(version="9.7.0")
        resource.get()
        print(resource)

Try it out

    SoftwarePackage(
        {
            "create_time": "2018-05-21T10:06:59+05:30",
            "_links": {"self": {"href": "/api/cluster/software/packages/9.7.0"}},
            "version": "9.7.0",
        }
    )

### Deleting a cluster software package

The following example shows how to delete a package from the cluster. You need to provide the package version that you want to delete. The software package delete creates a job to perform the delete operation.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import SoftwarePackage

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = SoftwarePackage(version="9.6.0")
        resource.delete()

The call to delete the package returns the job UUID, including a HAL link to retrieve details about the job. The job object includes a `state` field and a message to indicate the progress of the job. When the job is complete and the application is fully created, the message indicates success and the job `state` field is set to `success`.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import Job

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        resource = Job(uuid="f587d316-5feb-11e8-b0e0-005056956dfc")
        resource.get()
        print(resource)

Try it out

### Retrieving software installation history information

The following example shows how to: - retrieve the software package installation history information. - display specific node level software installation history information. - provide all the attributes by default in response when the self referential link is not present.

    from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
    from netapp_ontap.resources import SoftwareHistory

    with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
        print(list(SoftwareHistory.get_collection()))

Try it out

    SoftwareHistory(
        {
            "from_version": "9.4.0",
            "to_version": "9.5.0",
            "start_time": "2018-09-03T16:18:46+05:30",
            "node": {
                "name": "sti70-vsim-ucs165n",
                "uuid": "58cd3a2b-af63-11e8-8b0d-0050568e7279",
                "_links": {
                    "self": {
                        "href": "/api/cluster/nodes/58cd3a2b-af63-11e8-8b0d-0050568e7279"
                    }
                },
            },
            "state": "successful",
            "end_time": "2018-05-21T10:14:51+05:30",
        }
    )

## Classes

`class Software (*args, **kwargs)`

  Allows interaction with Software objects on the host

  Initialize the instance of the resource.

  Any keyword arguments are set on the instance as properties. For example, if the class was named 'MyResource', then this statement would be true:

      MyResource(name='foo').name == 'foo'

  ## Args

  `*args`
    Each positional argument represents a parent key as used in the URL of the object. That is, each value will be used to fill in a segment of the URL which refers to some parent object. The order of these arguments must match the order they are specified in the URL, from left to right.
  `**kwargs`
    each entry will have its key set as an attribute name on the instance and its value will be the value of that attribute.

  ### Ancestors

  - Resource

  ### Methods

  `def get(self, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse`

    Retrieves the software profile of a cluster.

    ### Related ONTAP commands

    - `cluster image show`
    - `cluster image show-update-progress`

    ### Learn more

    - `DOC /cluster/software`

    Fetch the details of the object from the host.

    Requires the keys to be set (if any). After returning, new or changed properties from the host will be set on the instance.

    ## Returns

    A `NetAppResponse` object containing the details of the HTTP response.

    ## Raises

    `NetAppRestError`: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

  `def patch(self, hydrate: bool = False, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: typing.Union = None, poll_timeout: typing.Union = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse`

    Updates the cluster software version. Important note: * Setting 'version' triggers the package installation. * To validate the package for installation but not perform the installation, use the `validate_only` field on the request.

    ### Required properties

    - `version` - Software version to be installed on the cluster.

    ### Recommended optional parameters

    - `validate_only` - Required to validate a software package before an upgrade.
    - `skip_warnings` - Used to skip validation warnings when starting a software upgrade.
    - `action` - Used to pause, resume, or cancel an ongoing software upgrade.
    - `stabilize_minutes` - Specifies a custom value between 1 to 60 minutes that allows each node a specified amount of time to stabilize after a reboot; the default is 8 minutes.
    - `estimate_only` - Estimates the time duration; does not perform any update.
    - `nodes_to_update` - Specifies a subset of the cluster's nodes for update.

    ### Related ONTAP commands

    - `cluster image validate`
    - `cluster image update`
    - `cluster image pause-update`
    - `cluster image resume-update`
    - `cluster image cancel-update`

    ### Learn more

    - `DOC /cluster/software`

    Send the difference in the object's state to the host as a modification request.

    Calculates the difference in the object's state since the last time we interacted with the host and sends this in the request body.

    ## Args

    `hydrate`
      If set to True, after the response is received from the call, a a GET call will be made to refresh all fields of the object.
    `poll`
      If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
    `poll_interval`
      If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
    `poll_timeout`
      If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
    `**kwargs`
      Any key/value pairs passed will normally be sent as query parameters to the host. If any of these pairs are parameters that are sent as formdata then only parameters of that type will be accepted and all others will be discarded.

    ## Returns

    A `NetAppResponse` object containing the details of the HTTP response.

    ## Raises

    `NetAppRestError`: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

  `def upload(self, body: typing.Union = None, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: typing.Union = None, poll_timeout: typing.Union = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse`

    Uploads a software or firmware package located on the local filesystem.

    ### Related ONTAP commands

    - `cluster image package get`

    ### Learn more

    - `DOC /cluster/software`

    Perform a custom action on this resource which is not a simple CRUD action

    ## Args

    `path`
      The action verb for this request. This will be added as a postfix to the instance location of the resource.
    `body`
      The body of the action request. This should be a Resource instance. The connection and URL will be determined based on the values from this object.
    `poll`
      If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
    `poll_interval`
      If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
    `poll_timeout`
      If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
    `**kwargs`
      Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

    ## Returns

    A `NetAppResponse` object containing the details of the HTTP response.

    ## Raises

    `NetAppRestError`: If the API call returned a status code >= 400
