The current set of changes are rather major in the FRU and ATCA areas,
so this is current a release-candidate for people to test. Get it at
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=36127&package_id=181090
This release has two major functional improvements:
* You can now edit and write FRU inventory data symbolically.
Yes, in the GUI, you can pull up some FRU data, right-click on it,
change it, and write the changes out. You can add entries to FRU
arrays by right-clicking on the array to append, or on items to
insert before. You can delete entries from FRU arrays by right
clicking on them and selecting "delete". It's pretty cool, and I
worked way too much on it.
* I added quite a bit of support for ATCA ECN002, including
monitoring all the IP addresses of an ATCA shelf, safe writing of
FRU shelf data, power feed controls, and full support of all the
FRU inventory tables.
Also, if you have your own custom OEM FRU multirecords, I added
substantial support for making it easy to define
those records. It's not terribly well documented yet, but I hope to fix
that soon, and there are some good examples. But please, send me
patches for your data formats. Then you can symbolically edit your FRU
inventory data, too!
There's a couple of little things left to fix (editing raw multi-record
data is quite a pain and I'd like to keep the raw multi-record data and
symbolic data in sync), but this should be quite functional to use. The
writing is still a experimental, so be careful as it may not be perfect
and may corrupt your FRU inventory data. I've done quite a bit of
testing, but be careful.
The main thing left from ATCA ECN002 is handling of the fans and fan
overrides, but I'm not sure exactly what to do about that. But not in
this release.
Please try it out, especially if you have an ATCA ECN002-compliant chassis.
