print sys.argv[1]
os.system("dellsyslog -s %s 'The Syslog is generated by python'" %(sys.argv[1]))
Sample script for dellsyslog in Python for S3100 Series

Sample script for dellsyslog in Perl
#! /usr/pkg/bin/perl
#system("dellsyslog" , "-s $ARGV[0] 'The Syslog is generated by Perl script'")
`dellsyslog -s $ARGV[0] "The Syslog is generated by Perl script"`

Dell EMC SmartScript Utilities
Dell EMC SmartScript utility is an easy API handler for scripting. When you install the Smart Scripting package, sample Perl, Python, and
Ruby scripts install in the /usr/pkg/scripts/sample_scripts directory. For S3100 series, the directory path is /f10/
flash/pkg/usr/pkg/scripts/sample_scripts. You can also create your own customized scripts and store them anywhere on
the switch, such as in a /f10/flash or /usr/pkg/ss-scriptsdirectory.
In addition, Dell EMC SmartScript Utils uses the Perl, Python, and Ruby APIs to create scripts that invoke function calls directly in the Dell
EMC Networking OS commands.
Following are the Dell EMC Networking OS APIs:
• DellExec — If you need to execute the script inside another script, you can make use of this API.
Syntax: DellExec (scriptName, [args])
• DellCliConfig — If you need to congure the list of Dell EMC Networking OS commands, you can make use of this API.
Syntax: DellCliConfig (CLI_list)
where CLI_list can be dened as (”interface vlan 10”, “no shutdown”)
• DellCli — If you need to execute a EXEC mode Dell EMC Networking OS command, you can make use of this API
Syntax: Dellcli (“<exec command>”)
