• Python

The following example shows how to update the boot parameters using curl.

curl -X PUT \
    [e-mail] \
    --header "Accept: application/xml" \
    --header "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
    "https://${SBCIP}/rest/v1.2/configuration/bootparams"

The following example shows how to update the boot parameters using Python.

import requests
from lxml import etree
headers = { "Accept":"application/xml", "Authorization":"Bearer " + token }
data = etree.tostring(etree.parse("request.xml"), xml_declaration=True, encoding='utf-8')
url  = "https://" + sbcip + "/rest/v1.2/configuration/bootparams"
resp = requests.put(url, headers=headers, data=data)

The following shows an example of the contents of the request.xml file sent as the request body.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<bootparams>
 <bootparam>
   <name>Target Name</name>
   <value>PRIMARY</value>
 </bootparam>
</bootparams>
