    Hi All,

    I tried to run the API call under to start & shut the VDb

    https://docs.delphix.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60492371" href="https://docs.delphix.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60492371">https://docs.delphix.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60492371

    Note: have changed the URL for the engine as per my project

    The log gave me a message API session is not established. Please advice

    Hi, This means that you didn’t get a cookie session, did you set you engine ip as DE var in script and also set VDB var to conform your environment Regards, Mouhssine

    Hi Anusha,

    API calls require an authenticated session, the page you linked to shows this, in that there are a series of calls to curl:

    1. Create session.
    2. Authenticate.
    3. Run command or commands.

    Are you running all 3 above steps, or just trying the Start/Stop command on it's own?

    Regards,

    Scott.

    Hi Mouhssine,


    yes have set the DE and VDb value.


    I started my script as ./<Script_Name> start, but it is not giving any log now.


    used the script https://docs.delphix.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60492371

    I used h script under https://docs.delphix.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60492371, which has all the above three. But still not able to get through
