Overview

Given a username, password & organization, inventory Satellite 6 and return a report of the registered systems, which subscriptions cover them and which hardware facts that they have

Requirements

• Python >= 2.6
• Satellite >= 6.1.x
• OPTIONAL - PyYAML. If PyYAML is installed, the script will attempt to read /etc/hammer/cli.modules.d/foreman.yml and ~/.hammer/cli_config.yml to derive the correct username, password, and host to connect to. If PyYAML is not present, the script will require the parameters to be provided explicitly.

Example Output

When run without the -v/--verbose OR -d/--debug switches, sat6Inventory.py has no output, suitable for a cron script. Results are stored in $ORG_inventory_report.csv, where $ORG represents your Organization's Name

When run with the -v/--verbose switch, sat6Inventory.py outputs the URLs used for the various API calls and the parsed output for each system inventoried

↪ ./sat6Inventory.py -s satellite.example.com -l admin -o 'Example' -v
