proliant-tools
==============
* 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`_.
