Gaia API access for Maestro/ElasticXL from SmartConsole CLI

Danny — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 14:23:47 GMT

I'd like to access my Maestro/ElasticXL systems via SmartConsole CLI.
When I try to access an API that is not listed for Maestro/ElasticXL, the following error is shown:

gaia-api/show-hostname target "10.10.0.1" --format json { "code" : "err_gaia_api_login_failed", "message" : "Cannot login to the Gateway: 10.10.0.1" }

When I try to access an API that is listed for Maestro/ElasticXL, the following error is shown:

gaia-api/show-maestro-gateway target "10.10.0.1" --format json { "code" : "err_gaia_api_send_command_failed", "message" : "Cannot send the command to the gateway: 10.10.0.1 " }

Of course, Gaia API access was enabled for user 'admin' on Maestro.
I'm also using 'admin' with SuperUser permissions in SmartConsole.

Any ideas?

Well, on my R82 VSNext cluster, it seems the Gaia API is just broken:

[Expert@DallasSC]# mgmt_cli -f json -r true gaia-api/show-hostname target a9cf9cc1-ba92-4dc4-8d4f-14fc70facf1f { "code" : "err_gaia_api_login_failed", "message" : "Cannot login to the Gateway: a9cf9cc1-ba92-4dc4-8d4f-14fc70facf1f" }
