SoftLayerAPIError(SoftLayer_Exception_Public): Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition (64 bit) (17-32 Cores), price ID# 210917, has a Cores capacity restriction that does not match the capacity of 8 x 2.0 GHz or higher Cores, price ID# 210181. Please submit prices that are compatible.

Need to check if a price has a capacity restriction, and if so, select the appropriate price id based on that.

[marcuswalton]

The price ID is written in the error message, how does this need to be written in the slcli order command ????

[allmightyspiff]

@marcuswalton At the moment this won't work in the slcli directly. The following Python code will allow you to place this order however.

Hi Christopher, I have edited the script to add the VLAN I want the new server to be in, I presume that packageId": 1035 is for SUSPEND_CLOUD_SERVER ?,but until last week had never used the Softlayer API, how do I place the order with a script ?

[allmightyspiff]

@marcuswalton that is basically just a pyhton script, so place the text in a file called something like order_suspend.py and then run python order_suspend.py and it should work (assuming you have the softlayer python package installed, which is part of the slcli)

I hope that helps, but let us know if you run into any problems.

One thing of note, at the bottom, this script calls https://softlayer.github.io/reference/services/SoftLayer_Product_Order/verifyOrder/ , which only checks to make sure your order is valid.

Change that to placeOrder(orderData) to actually order the server.

[marcuswalton]

Hi Christophe, Should I be able to run this from Windows 10, from the CMD line ?, need some clear instructions on how to run this script, does the attached look OK, I have added VLAN details, but not sure if the syntax is correct ?

@marcuswalton I don't see any attachment, try posting directly on this issue instead of responding ot the email.

Also, its just a python script, if you have python installed you should be able to run it.

Hi Christopher, I ordered “SUSPEND-CLOUD_SERVER”s with the below python script you helped me with last week, but I now need to order Data disks for the servers, I need to order a 100GB disk for one and a 1TB disk for the other, I have two questions: · What command do I use to find the priceid for the disks. · What command can I use to order the disks for the VM’s, I have the servers virtualGuestID’s Many thanks Regards Marcus """ Order a new VSI with post script.

Hi Marcus,

To add disks to your Servers you have to do an upgrade of them, you can use the following python script example to upgrade your SUSPEND-CLOUD_SERVER:

"""

To upgrade your other server to 1.00 TB disk you have to replace the item price id in the script above, like the below example.

{"id": 2279}   # "description": "1.00 TB (SAN)", 'keyName': 'GUEST_DISK_1000_GB_SAN_2',
                       # "categoryCode": "guest_disk4"

To get the item prices available for the disks you can use the following python script:

"""

This change has been added to the master branch, and will be released early next week. Look for this fix in v5.6.0
