664624 - script to power-cycle a tegra without a browser

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

A bit of Python to add to the tegra-management equipment so that we can power-cycle a tegra without clicking through the annoying PDU web interface.

For the record, I used tegra-069 and tegra-024 to test this.

What do you think?  Is the caching in the current directory OK?  How about error handling?  The Telnet object has a timeout, so this shouldn't hang indefinitely even if the PDU behaves badly.  It will raise some sort of exception, although I don't know what.  Any other changes I should make?

There are some small nits but none big enough to not r+ it so we can start testing.  I do think that the pdu - tegra linking needs to be changed, but that's because I'm in the middle of changing :)

I'm creating a *.json file that contains every tegra and what foopy and pdu it belongs to - so I would like to switch to that.

I would prefer that the telnet call be wrapped with a pretty greedy try/except so that anything except a connect would just fail out the whole call.

Looks good - thanks
