This new element installs hpssacli utility (for configuring RAID) and installs proliantutils python module (which has ironic-python-agent hardware manager for HP ProLiant hardware). This module also exposes a new environment variable DIB_HPSSACLI_URL which allows operator to pass a custom HTTP(S) URL for RPM of hpssacli utility. NOTE: This module currently supports only installing from source. Change-Id: I0494e3db623fdd7ea9182ffba21c0652aaad113c

==============
|
||
|
||
* This element can be used when building ironic-agent ramdisk. It
|
||
enables ironic-agent ramdisk to do in-band cleaning operations specific
|
||
to HP ProLiant hardware.
|
||
|
||
* Works with ubuntu and fedora distributions (on which ironic-agent
|
||
element is supported).
|
||
|
||
* Currently the following utilities are installed:
|
||
|
||
+ `proliantutils`_ - This module registers an ironic-python-agent hardware
|
||
manager for HP ProLiant hardware, which implements in-band cleaning
|
||
steps. The latest version of ``proliantutils`` available is
|
||
installed. This python module is released with Apache license.
|
||
|
||
+ `HP Smart Storage Administrator (HP SSA) CLI for Linux 64-bit`_ - This
|
||
utility is used by ``proliantutils`` library above for doing in-band RAID
|
||
configuration on HP ProLiant hardware. Currently installed version is
|
||
2.30. Newer version of ``hpssacli`` when available, may be installed to
|
||
the ramdisk by using the environment variable ``DIB_HPSSACLI_URL``.
|
||
``DIB_HPSSACLI_URL`` should contain the HTTP(S) URL for downloading the
|
||
RPM package for ``hpssacli`` utility. Availability of newer versions can
|
||
be in the Revision History in the above link. This utility is closed source
|
||
and is released with `HP End User License Agreement – Enterprise Version`_.
