This article details how to generate report using the RestAPI which will mirror as closely as possible the "OutputDevices" report which was available in V3 of iQSonar
Fields in the original report
This information is taken from the iQSonar Developer API guide for iQSonar V3
| Field | V3 Comment | RestAPI Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Hostname | Hostname of the device | Get this from the /devices RestAPI endpoint |
| FQDN | Fully QUalified Domain Name of the device | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint |
| OS | OS description and service pack | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint |
| OS Install Date | OS description and service pack | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint May not always be available |
| Location | Location of the device | In V4 this represents the target configuration set used to define the device. Get this from the /devices RestAPI endpoint |
| Serial Number | The serial number of the device | Get this from the /devices RestAPI endpoint |
| PhysicalCPUCount | Number of physical CPUs or sockets in the Physical Device (which may differ from the Virtual or Logical host when a device is a virtual machine or partition) | IF the device is a physical device, this information is derived from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint Where the virtualisation host is not scanned, then this field and all the other information about the physical host will not be able to be populated. |
| PhysicalCoreCount | Sum of cores across all CPUs in the Physical Device (which may differ from the Virtual or Logical host when a device is a virtual machine or partition) | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; May not always be available |
| PhysicalCoresPerCPU | Physical core count divided by the physical CPU count | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; May not always be available |
| PhysicalCPUManufacturer | Manufacturer of the CPU on the Physical Device | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; May not always be available |
| PhysicalCPUModel | Model of the CPU on the Physical Device | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; May not always be available |
| PhysicalCPUSpeed | Speed of the CPU on the Physical Device | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; May not always be available |
| PhysicalRAM | Total amount of RAM on the Physical Device | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; May not always be available |
| VirtualCPUCount | Number of Virtual CPUs perceived by the device (only populated when the device is Virtual or Logical) | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; Only available if device is virtual or logical |
| VirtualCoreCount | Sum of Cores perceived by the device (only populated when the device is Virtual or Logical) | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; Only available if device is virtual or logical |
| VirtualRAM | Amount of perceived RAM by the device (only populated when the device is Virtual or Logical) | Get this from the /devices/{Device_ID} RestAPI endpoint; Only available if device is virtual or logical |
| DeviceModel | Model of the device |
