HP OneView REST API Reference
unmanaged-devices
An unmanaged device is used to manually describe any device, such as a server, enclosure, storage array, networking
switch, tape drive, or display that takes up space in a rack or consumes power but cannot otherwise be managed by the
appliance. This API should not be used to describe BladeSystem enclosures, ProLiant G7 or Gen8 Servers unless the
intent is to never add them as fully managed resources by the appliance. This API allows you to get configuration data for
one or more unmanaged devices, create an unmanaged device, modify unmanaged device attributes, or delete an
unmanaged device.
URI: /rest/unmanaged-devices
Method API
GET Gets a set of unmanaged device resources according to the specified parameters. Filters can be
used to get a specific set of unmanaged devices. With no filters specified, the API returns a
potentially paginated list of all the unmanaged device resources subject to start/count/sort
parameters.
Parameter Attributes Description
start Optional The 0-based index of the first resource to return (start=0 starts
with the first available resource). If the specified count does not
return all resources within the maximum allowed time (see count),
use the start parameter to view additional resource pages. The
default value for start is 0 (first available resource).
count Optional Optional parameter that specifies the number of resources to return
from each API invocation. The number of resources returned on
each call is referred to as a page. If you specify a count, the API
attempts to return the specified number of resources, however this
may be limited due to response time constraints and/or actual
number of resources available to return. The results include the total
number of resources that match the filter or query, the actual
count returned, and the URIs to go to the next page, previous
page, or both. If necessary, you can make several requests using
the URI for the next or previous page (or different start
parameters) to get the desired count.
sort Optional The sort order of the returned data set. By default, the sort order is
based on the create time, with the oldest entry first.
query Experimental This parameter is experimental for this release: While generally
functional when used in simple cases, restrictions might be noted in
the implementation description.
