Getting EGW Advanced Enabled Functionality through API

[lallassu]

Hi,

I got vCloud 8.20 and want to know if the edge gateway has been enabled to use advanced features (that enables the HTML5 dashboard for configuration). In the database there is "advanced_gateway" true/false. So I guess there should be some way to get this information through the API, but I can't find it.

Requesting, through the REST API, /api/3.0/edges/status (or /summary) doesn't seem to yield any information regarding this activation.

Is it possible to get this information through the REST API?

Hello there,

I think that there is not an API call to enable this, you can try with vRO which bring with an action called "convertGatewayToAdvancedGateway". Also, you can try with oGateway.convertGatewayToAdvanced() where the "Gateway" is a parameter of kind vCloud:Gateway , in any case, if there a call to convert to advanced service you should send this to vCD not to NSX.

HTH

I don't want to enable it through the API, I just want to see its status (if the advanced gateway features has been enabled). But perhaps this should be in vCloud forum instead.
