Removed the OpenBMC section since there's not enough content to justify

creating another bullet instead of re-using the OpenPower section. The
only real difference is the mgmt type.

Manually Define Nodes
=====================
If admin knows the detailed information of the physical server, ``mkdef`` command can be used to manually define it into xCAT database.
In this document, the following configuration is used as an example
Compute Node info::
CN Hostname: cn1
BMC Address: 50.0.101.1
OpenBMC username: root
OpenBMC Password: 0penBMC
Run ``mkdef`` command to define the node: ::
mkdef -t node cn1 groups=openbmc,all mgt=openbmc cons=openbmc bmc=50.0.101.1 bmcusername=root bmcpassword=0penBmc
The manually defined node will be ::
# lsdef cn1
Object name: cn1
bmc=50.0.101.1
bmcpassword=0penBmc
bmcusername=root
cons=openbmc
groups=openbmc,all
mgt=openbmc
postbootscripts=otherpkgs
postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
Hardware Management
===================
Remote Power Control
````````````````````
``rpower`` command can be used to control the power of a remote physical machine. ::
rpower cn1 on
rpower cn1 off
rpower cn1 boot
rpower cn1 reset
To get the current rpower state of a machine: ::
# rpower cn1 state
cn1: on
Remote Console
``````````````
``rcons`` command can be used to get command line remote console.
#. Make sure the ``conserver`` is configured by running ``makeconservercf cn1``.
#. Start command line remote console: ::
rcons cn1

IBM Power LE / OpenPOWER
=========================
The following sections documents the procedures in managing IBM Power LE (Little Endian) / OpenPOWER servers in an xCAT cluster.
These are machines use the IBM Power Architecture and is **IPMI** managed.
Most of the content is general information for xCAT, the focus and examples are for management of IBM OpenPower servers.
IBM OpenPower Servers
* based on Power8 Processor Technology is IPMI managed
* based on Power9 Processor Technology is OpenBmc managed [**Alpha**]
