    Satellite API Question

    Posted on

    Hello all,

     

    I am trying to write a python script for Satellite's API that will schedule a remote command. The problem is that even though I schedule the command to run now Satellite schedules 2 hours later. Here is my code:

    def schedule_script

        earliest_occurrence = xmlrpclib.DateTime()

        print earliest_occurrence

        client.system.scheduleScriptRun(key, id, "root", "root", 300, script, earliest_occurrence)
     
    schedule_script()
    client.auth.logout(key)
     
     
    When I screen print the variable "earliest_occurrence" it returns the correct time but for some reason Satellite will schedule the command exactly 2 hours from that time (current time). Has anyone ran into this issue? (also I verified that the Satellite server has the right time as well)
     
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
