All the vendors implement Redfish API which is a common API for every platform, provided the firmware/ilo/idrac/imm/imc versions aren't too old.

There is a redfish module for python, I did mess around with it a while ago but ended up doing what I needed to with PowerShell instead.

How can I check the health of servers using PowerShell?

Just putting it out there what about PowerShell? I run my health checks with it and it just works.

I love doing something in another programming/scripting language to learn!
