If no ping test performed, getmacs writes the first adapter MAC to the xCAT database. If ping test performed, getmacs will write the first successfully pinged MAC to xCAT database.
For PPC (without HMC, using Direct FSP Management) specific:
If users run "getmacs noderange" directly for P7 IH LPARs, it will return the HIF MAC addresses which are owned by the LPARs. If run getmacs with ping test by default, it will return the physical mac address. If run getmacs with ping test using --hfi, it will return the HFI MAC address.
Note: If network adapters are physically assigned to LPARs, getmacs cannot read the MAC addresses unless perform ping test, since there is no HMC command to read them and getmacs has to login to open formware. And if the LPARs has never been activated before, getmacs need to be performed with the option "-D" to get theirs MAC addresses.
