Sending async command to wait on file transfer [ Edited ]

[#1]

Hello all,

I'm working on a python script to download a new version of IOS onto devices. The problem I'm running into is that NetMRI will say the command completed as OK while the file transfer is still ongoing. I was looking in the python library and found async command, but I can't get it to work. 

Is it possible to use this to make NetMRI wait until the device returns some specified text (seconds)?

How do I kill a long running async job? Now I can't run any more scripts on my test device because it says a command is still running?

If so, how can I make that work? Here's my command:

easy.send_async_command("copy scp://USERASS@SERVER/{} {}:.format(New_Code_Version,Location_Clean), (360), (""))

Any help would be much appreciated!

You need to use the following

import time

time.sleep(20)

NetMRI has a builtin as well

easy.send_async_command("SLEEP:60")

This will tell it to sleep for 60 seconds

Any chance you would be willing to share the rest of what you have built for your upgrade process?

I too am beginning to attempt to do use netmri to automate upgrades but I am very new to netmri and python - having a template that works would help tremendously.
