  • 1.  Python script to automount usb on Juniper EX Swicthes

    Posted 01-27-2020 15:39

    Hello, i am trying to write a script that will mount a usb stick on the Juniper EX 2300/3400's. When I runst the script I gett he below error. Any help would be appreciated.

     

    root> op usb
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/var/db/scripts/op/automountusb1.py", line 11, in <module>
    with StartShell(dev) as ss:
    File "../../../../../../../../src/dist/python-add-ons/junos-eznc/lib/jnpr/junos/utils/start_shell.py", line 170, in __enter__
    File "../../../../../../../../src/dist/python-add-ons/junos-eznc/lib/jnpr/junos/utils/start_shell.py", line 102, in open
    RuntimeError
    :
    StartShell requires user credentials
    error: op script failed: /var/db/scripts/op/automountusb1.py

     

    My python script.

     

    #!/usr/bin/env python2

    from jnpr.junos import Device
    from jnpr.junos.utils.start_shell import StartShell
    import commands

     

    MOUNT_DIR = "/var/tmp/usb"

     

    with Device() as dev: #= Device(host='localhost', user='root', password='H!ghM@rk!ng')
        with StartShell(dev) as ss:
            dev.open()
            print (ss.run('cli -c "start shell user root"'))
            print (ss.run('cli -c "camcontrol inquiry da1 -S"'))

    To execute the python script make sure we have the following in the system configuration

     

    set system scripts language python

     

    Also make sure we have the correct permission for the script file. 

     

    Hope this helps.

    I believe this is what you are facing

     

    https://github.com/Juniper/py-junos-eznc/issues/908

     

    The start shell takes user credentials to make the connection. You might have to use the subprocess to achieve this.

    I believe the error is I/O operation and with subprocess module itself. You may try with subprocess32 on python3 as we are running the python on BSD platform.
