  25       <div class="body"><p>A few days ago
  26 <a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/SOAP_based_webservice_from_Dell_to_check_server_support_status.html">I
  27 reported how to get</a> the support status out of Dell using an
  28 unofficial and undocumented SOAP API, which I since have found out was
  29 <a href="http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2012-February/045959.html">discovered
  30 by Daniel De Marco in february</a>.  Combined with my web scraping
  31 code for HP, Dell and IBM
  32 <a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Checking_server_hardware_support_status_for_Dell__HP_and_IBM_servers.html">from
  33 2009</a>, I got inspired and wrote
  34 <a href="https://views.scraperwiki.com/run/computer-hardware-support-status/">a
  35 web service</a> based on Scraperwiki to make it easy to look up the
  36 support status and get a machine readable result back.</p>
  37
  38 <p>This is what it look like at the moment when asking for the JSON
  39 output:
  40
  41 <blockquote><pre>
  42 % GET <a href="https://views.scraperwiki.com/run/computer-hardware-support-status/?format=json&vendor=Dell&servicetag=2v1xwn1">https://views.scraperwiki.com/run/computer-hardware-support-status/?format=json&vendor=Dell&servicetag=2v1xwn1</a>
  43 supportstatus({"servicetag": "2v1xwn1", "warrantyend": "2013-11-24", "shipped": "2010-11-24", "scrapestamputc": "2012-06-06T20:26:56.965847", "scrapedurl": "http://143.166.84.118/services/assetservice.asmx?WSDL", "vendor": "Dell", "productid": ""})
  44 %
  45 </pre></blockquote>
  46
  47 <p>It currently support Dell and HP, and I am hoping for help to add
  48 support for other vendors.  The python source is available on
  49 Scraperwiki and I welcome help with adding more features.</p>
