Symptome


Issue while running the REST api-scripts that are running on SAN-Switches with FOS v8.2.x the command execution is successful.
Parent command:
Curl -X POST -H "Accept=\"application/yang-data+json\" Content-Type=\"'application/yang-data+json\" --user "user:password" -i https://switch/rest/login

From the response-header. The "Authorization" header can be extracted with no issue.

Post inheriting the "Authorization-header", the below command must be performed:
Curl -X GET -H "Accept=\"application/yang-data+json\" Content-Type=\"'application/yang-data+json\" Authorization=\"Custom_Basic 'Authorization-header from above'\" " -i https://switch/rest/running/fabric/fabric-switch

On FOS 9.1.x the above command execution fails with error:
The error message received is "HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized"

Ursache


The cause of the issue is that the "GET" query for "fabric-switch" is not added in the "fabric" class of FOS v9.x command executions.

Lösung


FOS v8.2.x
In 8.2.3x the 'GET' query for 'fabric-switch' is in 'fabric' and brocade-fabric' classes so the query works for command:
"https://switch/rest/running/fabric/fabric-switch [switch]"
"https://switch/rest/running/brocade-fabric/fabric-switch [switch]"

FOS v9.x:
But in later releases from 9.x this is removed from 'fabric' class and is only included and available in the "brocade-fabric" class.
Hence the query as "https://switch/rest/running/ [switch]brocade-fabric/fabric-switch" works successfully.
