=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
B<getmacs> - Collects node MAC address.
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
I<getmacs [-h| --help]>
|
|
|
|
I<getmacs [-v| --version]>
|
|
|
|
I<getmacs [-V| --verbose] noderange> [-f][-d][-D -S server -G gateway -C client]
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The getmacs command collects MAC address from a single or range of nodes.
|
|
Note that on AIX systems, the returned MAC address is not colon-seperated (for example 8ee2245cf004), while on Linux systems the MAC address is colon-seperated (for example 8e:e2:24:5c:f0:04).
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
B<-C> Specify the IP address of the partition for ping test. The default is to read from xCAT database if no -C specified.
|
|
|
|
B<-d> Display MAC only. The default is to write the first valid adapter MAC to the xCAT database.
|
|
|
|
B<-D> Perform ping test.
|
|
|
|
B<-f> Force immediate shutdown of the partition.
|
|
|
|
B<-G> Gateway IP address of the partition. The default is to read from xCAT database if no -G specified.
|
|
|
|
B<-h> Display usage message.
|
|
|
|
B<-S> The IP address of the machine to ping. The default is to read from xCAT databse if no -S specified.
|
|
|
|
B<-v> Command Version.
|
|
|
|
B<-V> Verbose output.

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
1. To retrieve the MAC address for the HMC-managed partition lpar4 and write the first valid adapter MAC to the xCAT database, enter:
|
|
|
|
I<getmacs lpar4>
|
|
|
|
Output is similar to:
|
|
|
|
lpar4:
|
|
|
|
#Type Location Code MAC Address Full Path Name Ping Result
|
|
|
|
ent U9133.55A.10B7D1G-V12-C4-T1 8e:e2:24:5c:f0:04 /vdevice/l-lan@30000004 virtual
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. To retrieve the MAC address for the HMC-managed partition lpar4 and display the result only, enter:
|
|
|
|
I<getmacs lpar4 -d>
|
|
|
|
Output is similar to:
|
|
|
|
lpar4:
|
|
|
|
#Type Location Code MAC Address Full Path Name Ping Result
|
|
|
|
ent U9133.55A.10B7D1G-V12-C4-T1 8ee2245cf004 /vdevice/l-lan@30000004 virtual
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. To retrieve the MAC address while performing a ping test for the HMC-managed partition lpar4 and display the result only, enter:
|
|
|
|
I<getmacs lpar4 -d -D -S 9.3.6.49 -G 9.3.6.1 -C 9.3.6.234>
|
|
|
|
#Type Location Code MAC Address Full Path Name Ping Result
|
|
|
|
ent U9133.55A.10B7D1G-V12-C4-T1 8e:e2:24:5c:f0:04 /vdevice/l-lan@30000004 successful virtual
