The configCECs script is written in ksh, and used to create a full

system partition for each CECs Managed by the HMC. It will use ssh to

Since for the large HPC environment the user usually does not use many
|
||||
nodes that are not IH nodes, so we only support Power6 IH servers in
|

this script. If the user wants to do LPAR setup for HV or HE servers,

he needs to modify this sample script manually.

To specify the name format to be used for the CEC/LPAR/Profile, this

script uses the same logic that the 'date' command uses for specifying

|
||||
will recognize:
|
||||
%F = the frame number of the frame that the CEC is in
|
||||
%N = the relative node number of the CEC in the frame
|
||||
%C = the cage number of the CEC in the frame
|
||||
%S = the serial number of the CEC
|

For example if you want the CEC name to be
|
||||
'airbus_f<frame#>n<node#>_SN<serial#>', then the format to use would be

The way the script finds the CECs on the HMC is to issue the
|
||||
'lssyscfg -r frame' command to find all the frames and then issues the
|
||||
'lssyscfg -r cage' command for each frame to list the contents of each
|
||||
cage position in a given frame. It then starts looking for CECs starting
|
||||
at cage 1 and going through to the last cage. The first CEC found in a
|
||||
frame is assumed to be node 1, the second node found is node two and so on.
|
||||
The script then will assign each CEC a frame number, a node number, a cage
|
||||
number and the Serial number of the CEC which can be used in naming the
|

CEC/LPAR/Profile. If no frames/cages/CECs are found on this HMC, an error

xCAT command rspconfig could be used to setup ssh remote shell from the
|

xCAT Management Node to the HMCs without prompting for the hscroot password;
|
||||
otherwise the user has to type in the password manually for many times.
|

And if the user wants to use the frame number in the name of the CEC or

LPAR then the frame number must be set on the frames through HMC Web GUI

supported hardware names or 'device_id's to exclude are RIO and 10G, RIO

Actually, this script will not change the CECs/LPARs directly but creates
|
||||
one or two scripts (Rename_cecs, Build_lpars) in /tmp directory on xCAT MN
|
||||
that will do the changes once the user executes them. The /tmp/Rename_cecs
|
||||
should be run first and then the /tmp/Build_lpars. The reason why we do it
|
||||
this way is to have the user see exactly what HMC commands would be executed
