FOG Reboot

[chevengur]

Hi everyone, I ran into an issue: I’m trying to perform a one-time system reboot in Power Management via Python requests. However, the problem is that after this command, the computer creates a Cron Schedule, causing it to reboot continuously. Is there any way to avoid this? In the GUI, there is a “Perform Immediately” flag that sends a one-time reboot request.

def reboot(self):
        REBOOT_URL = "http://IP/fog/powermanagement"
        payload = {
            "performImmediately": 1, # doesn't work
            "hostID": 13,
            "min": 0,
            "hour": 0,
            "dom": 0,
            "month": 0,
            "dow": 0,
            "action": "reboot"
        }

        r = requests.post(
            REBOOT_URL,
            headers=self.headers,
            json=payload,
            verify=False
        )

        print(r.status_code, r.text)

@chevengur I believe you just check the box for perform immediately and dont’ define anythign against the cron side of things.

@Tom-Elliott That’s right, in the UI I check the box, but in the POST request this flag is missing, or maybe I’m not naming it correctly?

@chevengur The flag is onDemand -> 0 = No, 1 = yes.
