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 e.g. for grid:

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

   for sb1:

   cd /export/nfsroot/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d
   root@repository1:/export/nfsroot/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d# ln -s head.sb1 head
   

3. If you are inventorying grid:

As root run the run_inventory script:

root@console.grid:~# cd /root/inventory/
root@console.grid:/root/inventory# ./run_inventory.rb

Starting Output will look like:

root@console.grid:/root/inventory# ./run_inventory.rb 
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/restclient/response.rb:11: warning: method redefined; discarding old body

.

This script will take 45 minutes to run.

If you are inventorying a sandbox:

1. Turn on (or restart) all nodes, so the boot into the inventory pxe-image
2. Check the inventory page for the sandbox you are inventorying, e.g. for sandbox9:

   http://internal1.orbit-lab.org:5054/inventory/attribute_list?set=node*.sb9.orbit-lab.org*
   

3. Wait until all the nodes check in, then proceed to next step.

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

   rm 0A0A
   

5. Update the inventory service "domain topology" cache (which nodes belong to what testbeds) by visiting the following URL:

   http://internal1.orbit-lab.org:5054/inventory/update_cache
   

From internal1

6. 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.
