The Dell Storage enclosure REST API

accessible from a client device and from a Web browser. REST access is enabled by default.

• Device inventory using the GET commands available in the Server Hardware Management Command-Line Interface (SHM CLI)
• Device actions:
• Updating rmware
• Validating rmware
• Blinking a drive
• Turning o a drive slot within an enclosure

Modifying REST Conguration
NOTE
: Modifying the REST conguration le can disable or disrupt REST functionality.
The Server Hardware Manager REST conguration exists in a le named SHM.cong that exists in the ServerHardwareManagerMonitor
subdirectory under the main install directory.
• To enable or disable the REST server, under the “[SHMSYSTEM]” section, if REST value is ON, the REST service will run; if the value
does not exist or is OFF, the service will be disabled.
