Oh, btw, does nodels <nodes> vpd.serial give you what you expect?

If you want to do it, there's not a particularly well built in, but to make a 
script that would do it:

# rinv n2-n4 serial|grep System | sed -e 's/^/nodech /' -e 's/: System Serial 
Number: / nodepos.comments=/'
nodech n3 nodepos.comments=06CAWPX
nodech n4 nodepos.comments=06CAWPY
nodech n2 nodepos.comments=06CAWPW

Redirect that to a shell script and the shell script should do it's thing.

Subject: [xcat-user] best way to populate nodepos table

As of today we are not using nodepos table for anything. I started 
experimenting and while adding nodepos.rack, nodepos.chassis, and 
nodepos.height values are easy to add using nodech command, things that are 
different between nodes are not that easy to enter without a lot of manual data 
entry.

My table currently looks like this:


#node,rack,u,chassis,slot,room,height,comments,disable

"qnode5001","w22","1","qfpc01","left",,"1u",,

"qnode5002","w22","1","qfpc01","right",,"1u",,

"qnode5003","w22","2","qfpc01","left",,"1u",,

"qnode5004","w22","2","qfpc01","right",,"1u",,



w22 is the floor position of the rack, slot is u 1 in the rack and left or 
right indicates where in the chassis node resides.

Is there any way to automate slot and u position using nodech command? Also, 
under comments in this table I would like to read-in rinv serial number command 
but I am unsure how to do that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Damir
