Hi Neil Williams,

Sometimes the devices are not in auto-testing, and we want to improve the devices usage by using the devices for some manual tests and do not want the manual jobs to be interrupted by a sudden auto-test task.

Have check the XML-RPC and it is very useful. However, the functions in xmlrpclib of my localhost is not as many as the website lists.

And unfortunately, no scheduler.put_into_maintenance_mode() and scheduler.put_into_online_mode() after running server.system.listMethods().

can you share the latest complete xmllib python file?

p.s.

All functions I get about scheduler are:

'scheduler.all_device_types', 'scheduler.all_devices', 'scheduler.all_jobs', 'scheduler.cancel_job', 'scheduler.get_pipeline_device_config', 'scheduler.job_details', 'scheduler.job_output', 'scheduler.job_status', 'scheduler.notify_incomplete_job', 'scheduler.pending_jobs_by_device_type', 'scheduler.resubmit_job', 'scheduler.submit_job', 'scheduler.validate_yaml', 'scheduler.worker_heartbeat', 'system.getCapabilities',

Thanks.
