How to Run Inventory

To run inventory preform the following:

From repository1

1. Goto the tfptboot directory and make a symbolic link for the appropriate domain

   root@repository1:~# cd /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/
   root@repository1:/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg# ln -s inventory-nb-grid 0A0A
   

HEX	Domain
0A0A	Grid
0A0B	SB1
0A0C	SB2
0A0D	SB3
0A0E	SB4
0A0F	SB5
0A10	SB6
0A11	SB7
0A12	SB8
0A13	SB9
0A28	Outdoor

2. goto the /export/nfsroot/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d and make a symbolic link to head for the proper domain

   cd /export/nfsroot/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d
   root@repository1:/export/nfsroot/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d# ln -s head.grid head
   

From grid

3. Turn on nodes

   omf tell -a on -t <topo>
   

4. Wait 5-10 minutes for nodes to boot and load inventory information. If doing a large portion of the grid the nodes should be turned on in small batches to avoid overloading the server.
5. Turn nodes back off

   omf tell -a offh -t <topo>
   

From repository1

6. Break the link if this is not done the next person to use the grid will have a bad time.

   rm 0A0A
   

From internal1

7. run the ruby scripts:

   root@internal1:~# cd /usr/share/omf-aggmgr-5.4/omf-aggmgr/ogs_inventory/
   root@internal1:/usr/share/omf-aggmgr-5.4/omf-aggmgr/ogs_inventory# ruby mktopo_cpu.rb
   root@internal1:/usr/share/omf-aggmgr-5.4/omf-aggmgr/ogs_inventory# ruby mktopo_dev.rb
   root@internal1:/usr/share/omf-aggmgr-5.4/omf-aggmgr/ogs_inventory# ruby mktopo_disk.rb
   

   Note: each ruby script takes some time to preform all the actions, and the omf-agg-manager restarts every even hour on the 11th minute. If the ruby process is running at that time it will fail.
