PATCH failure case
You can perform a POST request if a PATCH request fails with a require-instance test failed error message when a PATCH
request is made to a non-existing object. To configure the PATCH, change the operation from PATCH to POST.
The following is an example of a PATCH and POST request:
PATCH request
curl -i -k -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u
$USER_NAME:$PASSWORD -d '{"dell-bgp:bgp-router":{"vrf":[{"vrf-name":"default","local-as-
number":"200"}]}}' -X PATCH https://$MGMT_IP/restconf/data/dell-bgp:bgp-router
Error
{"ietf-restconf:errors": {"error": [{"error-type":"rpc","error-tag":"data-
missing","error-app-tag":"instance-required","error-message":"require-instance test
failed","error-info": {"error-number":350}}]}
POST request
curl -i -k -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u
$USER_NAME:$PASSWORD -d '{"dell-bgp:bgp-router":{"vrf":[{"vrf-name":"default","local-as-
number":"200"}]}}' -X POST https://$MGMT_IP/restconf/data/dell-bgp:bgp-router
Configuration notes
The "request-instance test failed" indicates that there is no target resource.
To create the target resource (dell-qos:trust-map-dot1p-to-tc-entry), use the POST request:
curl -i -k -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type:
application/json" -u $USER_NAME:$PASSWORD -X POST -d '{}'
https://$MGMT_IP/restconf/data/dell-qos:trust-map-dot1p-to-tc-entry
To check if a target resource is available, use the GET request .
curl -i -k -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type:
application/json" -u $USER_NAME:$PASSWORD -X GET
https://$MGMT_IP/restconf/data/dell-qos:trust-map-dot1p-to-tc-entry
