Enhancement for Redfish create session

[stephan-koch]

I use the Redfish-Mockup-Server to simulate an server for Management SW.
This SW tries to create a "Session" to Bmc/iLO. For real Server an HTTP will be created and commited by an HTTP-code 201 together with an json output. Redfish-Mockup-Server give back an HTTP code 204 "No Content"

Is there a chance to enhance this to interact more like an real system?

OR do i something wrong ?

Thanks for all your effort.

I stumbled across the same issue. The mock server doesn't handle sessions as an action but rather as a file:

Redfish-Mockup-Server/redfishMockupServer.py

Lines 719 to 720 in 2d39eb1

	if "SessionService/Sessions" in self.path:
	self.send_header("X-Auth-Token", "1234567890ABCDEF")

I think this is a bug as it doesn't really align with the official example found in the specification (session is on page 179f):
https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0266_1.23.0.pdf

For now I just manually patched the response code to 201 for all POST requests with a body. A proper solution should probably work similar as already existing actions:

Redfish-Mockup-Server/redfishMockupServer.py

Lines 726 to 728 in 2d39eb1

	if "EventService/Actions/EventService.SubmitTestEvent" in self.path:
	r_code = self.handle_eventing(data_received)
	self.send_response(r_code)
