=head1 NAME
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<getmacs> - Collects node MAC address.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I<getmacs [-h| --help]>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I<getmacs [-v| --version]>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I<getmacs noderange> [-F filter]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I<getmacs [-V| --verbose] noderange> [-f][-d] [--arp] | [-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<--arp>          Read MAC address with ARP protocal.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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.  Please be notified that in this way, the lpars will be reset.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<-f>          Force immediate shutdown of the partition.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
B<-F>          Specify filters to select the correct adapter.  Acceptable filters are Type,MAC_Address,Phys_Port_Loc,Adapter,Port_Group,Phys_Port,Logical_Port,VLan,VSwitch,Curr_Conn_Speed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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 RETURN VALUE
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  0 The command completed successfully.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  1 An error has occurred.

=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:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

2. To retrieve the MAC address with ARP protocal:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I<getmacs lpar4 --arp>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Output is similar to:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
lpar4:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#IP           MAC_Address
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
3. 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:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

4. To retrieve the MAC address for the HMC-managed partition lpar4 with filter Type=hea,VSwitch=ETHERNET0.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I<getmacs lpar4 -F Type=hea,VSwitch=ETHERNET0>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Output is similar to:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
lpar4:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
