Sophisticated RAD Searches in Python
You can search for a zone by its name or ID or a set of zones by pattern matching. You can extend the basic definition of a name provided by a proxy. For example, if zones are uniquely identified by the key name, then you can find a zone with the name test-0
as shown in the following example. The example uses glob patterns to find a zone.
Example 2-36 Python Language – Using Glob Patterns
>>> import rad.bindings.com.oracle.solaris.rad.zonemgr as zonemgr >>> import rad.client as radc >>> import rad.connect as radcon >>> with radcon.connect_unix() as rc: ... zonelist = rc.list_objects(zonemgr.Zone(), radc.ADRGlobPattern({"name" : "test-0"})) ... print zonelist ... [Name: com.oracle.solaris.rad.zonemgr:type=Zone,name=test-0,id=-1 Version: (1.0)] >>>
In this example, the ADRGlobPattern
class (imported from the rad.client
module) is used to refine the search. The list_objects
() method from the RADConnection
class is used, but the search is refined by extending the name definition. The ADRGlobPattern
class takes a key:value dictionary and extends the name used for the search.
