One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions 7.0.5.1 LTS

With the /firmware/fetch endpoint you can avoid having to manually upload large SPS firmware ISO files before upgrading. Instead, you can install SPS firmware files by providing a URL through the SPS REST API. This also makes it easier to download and install a new firmware image on multiple SPS instances simultaneously. Download requests are processed asynchronously, as indicated by the 202 Accepted HTTP response.

URL

POST https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/firmware/fetch

Operations

Operations with the /firmware/fetch endpoint include:

Operation	HTTP method	URL	Notes
Start downloading a SPS firmware	POST	/api/firmware/fetch
Retrieve the status of SPS firmware downloads	GET	/api/firmware/fetch
Retrieve the status of a single SPS firmware download	GET	/api/firmware/fetch/<key-of-the-SPS-firmware-download>
Cancel a SPS firmware download	DELETE	/api/firmware/fetch/<key-of-the-SPS-firmware-download>	You can safely cancel running a SPS firmware file download while the status of the download is queued or in-progress. If you cancel running a firmware download while its status is in-progress, any partially downloaded files will be removed from SPS. However, the status information remains in the queue, and can be removed by sending a second DELETE request to the same URL. NOTE: After the firmware download and verification steps are completed, it is not possible to cancel the installation of the firmware.
Remove status information of finished, failed, and cancelled downloads	DELETE	/api/firmware/fetch/<key-of-the-SPS-firmware-download>	There is no automated procedure to remove outdated firmware downloads. You must remove them manually.

Sample request

Example: Start downloading SPS firmware files

The following command starts downloading SPS firmware files.

curl -X POST -b "${COOKIE_PATH}" --data "@-" https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/firmware/fetch

{

            "url": "https://example.com/sps.iso",

            "checksum": {

                "sha256": "e6837af0b5dcb5397c6bc8b52c0fb95aa49a3fea4303e274c7501f0857cb9b80"

            }

        }

Elements of the request message body include:

Element	Type	Description	Notes
url	string
checksum	object	When SPS downloads from a HTTPS URL, the server certificate is not validated during the SSL handshake. As a result, a checksum is required so that SPS can verify that the data was not tampered with in transit. The SPS download page for the respective version of the product provides the SHA-256 checksum of all official SPS images.	checksum is a required parameter and can only accept a sha256 hash as a value. This parameter must be used when you are running SPS in a production environment.
checksum.sha256	string	The SHA-256 hash of the SPS ISO image.

When the status of the firmware download is finished, the slot_id indicates the location where the downloaded firmware was installed. Note that if an administrator later runs other operations on that particular firmware slot, like deleting it or uploading another firmware, then these will not be reflected in the status of the firmware download.
start_time	string (ISO 8601)	The time at which the SPS firmware download job has started.
status	string	The status of the SPS firmware fetching job.	Possible values are: queued - the SPS firmware download is queued. in-progress - the SPS firmware download is being processed. finished - the SPS firmware download has been completed. failed - the SPS firmware could not be downloaded. canceled - the SPS firmware download was canceled.
url	string(URI)	The resource URL of the SPS firmware.	Example: https://example.com/sps.iso
