osdeploy
========
**osdeploy** operating system provision process. Supports two modes - 'Realtime monitor' and 'Replay history'.
Realtime monitor: This is a default. This tool with monitor provision state of the node. Trigger 'Realtime monitor' before rebooting target node to do provisioning.
Replay history: Used after provisioning is finished to probe the previously completed provisioning.
**Note**: Currently, hierarchical structure is not supported.
Usage
-----
::
xcatprobe osdeploy -h
xcatprobe osdeploy -n <node_range> [-t <max_waiting_time>] [-V]
xcatprobe osdeploy -n <node_range> -r <xxhxxm> [-V]
Options:
* **-n**: The range of nodes to be monitored or replayed.
* **-r**: Trigger 'Replay history' mode. Follow the duration of rolling back. Units are 'h' (hour) or 'm' (minute). If unit is not specified, hour will be used by default.
* **-t**: The maximum time to wait when doing monitor, unit is minutes. default is 60.
* **-V**: Output more information.
``-r`` means replay history of OS provision, if no ``-r`` means to do realtime monitor.
Realtime monitor
----------------
To monitor OS provisioning in real time, open at least 2 terminal windows. One to run ``osdeploy`` probe: ::
xcatprobe osdeploy -n cn1 [-V]
After some pre-checks, the probe will wait for provisioning information, similar to output below: ::
# xcatprobe osdeploy -n c910f03c17k20
The install NIC in current server is enp0s1 [INFO]
All nodes which will be deployed are valid [ OK ]
-------------------------------------------------------------
Start capturing every message during OS provision process......
-------------------------------------------------------------
Open second terminal window to run provisioning: ::
nodeset cn1 osimage=<osimage>
rpower cn1 boot
When all the nodes complete provisioning, the probe will exit and display output similar to: ::
# xcatprobe osdeploy -n c910f03c17k20
The install NIC in current server is enp0s1 [INFO]
All nodes which will be deployed are valid [ OK ]
-------------------------------------------------------------
Start capturing every message during OS provision process......

==================osdeploy_probe_report=================
All nodes provisioned successfully [ OK ]
If there is something wrong when provisioning, this probe will exit when timeout is reached or ``Ctrl+C`` is pressed by user. The maximum time can be set by using ``-t`` as below(default 30 minutes) ::
xcatprobe osdeploy -n cn1 -t 30
Replay history
--------------
To replay history of OS provision from 1 hour 20 minutes ago, use command as ::
xcatprobe osdeploy -n cn1 -r 1h20m
Outout will be similar to: ::
# xcatprobe osdeploy -n c910f03c17k20
The install NIC in current server is enp0s1 [INFO]
All nodes which will be deployed are valid [ OK ]
Start to scan logs which are later than *********, waiting for a while.............
