SLA policy

For the SLA policy collection resource, you can use an object value to return another value for the same object.

Getting an {slapolicyId}

IBM Spectrum Protect Plus assigns an ID {slapolicyId} to each SLA policy.

Method and URI: To convert the value of an object for an SLA policy, use a GET method with a URI:

GET     https://{hostname|IP}/ngp/slapolicy

Path: Response body (JSON) > slapolicies > name & id.

Example: Assume that you added an SLA policy, Gold, to IBM Spectrum Protect Plus. A Python snippet that is similar to the following example can be used to return its {slapolicyId} value, 2113:

object_name = "Diamond"

_response = requests.get('https://' + spp_ipv4 + '/ngp/slapolicy',
    headers=..., verify=...)

_response_json = json.loads(_response.text)    # Convert to JSON

object_json = _response_json['slapolicies']

for keys in object_json:
    if keys['name'] == object_name
        object_id = keys['id']

print(object_id)
2113
