| =head1 NAME
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<configfpc> - discover the Fan Power Controllers (FPCs) and configure the FPC interface
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<configfpc> B<-i> I<interface>
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<configfpc> B<-i> I<interface> B<--ip> I<default ip address>
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<configfpc> [B<-V>|B<--verbose>] 
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<configfpc> [B<-h>|B<--help>|B<-?>]
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| B<configfpc> will discover and configure all FPCs that are set to the default IP address. If not supplied the default ip is 192.168.0.100.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The B<-i> I<interface> is required to direct B<configfpc> to the xCAT MN interface which is on the same VLAN as the FPCs.
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are several bits of information that must be included in the xCAT database before running this command.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You must create the FPC node definitions for all FPCs being discovered including the IP address and switch port information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The B<configfpc> command discovers the FPCs and collects the MAC address. The MAC address is used to relate the FPC to a FPC node using the switch information for this MAC. Once the relationship is discovered the FPC is configured with the FPC node IP settings. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| This process is repeated until no more FPCs are discovered. 
 | |
|

| =head1 OPTIONS
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 6
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<-i> I<interface>
 | |
| 
 | |
| Use this flag to specify which xCAT MN interface (example: eth4) that is connected to the NeXtScale FPCs. This option is required. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<--ip> I<default ip address>
 | |
| 
 | |
| Use this flag to override the default ip address of 192.168.0.100 with a new address. 
 | |

| =head1 EXAMPLES
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 6

| 
 | |
| =item 1.
 | |
| To discover and configure all NeXtScale Fan Power Controllers (FPCs) connected on eth0 interface. 
 | |
| 
 | |
|  configfpc -i eth0
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item 2.
 | |
| To override the default ip address and run in Verbose mode. 
 | |
