Most definitely,
You will need to alter the switch tab for each port or add a regex to support
your switch definitions and define each node to that group (i.e. xxperswitch,
"tabedit switch" for examples )
Man switch:
port The port number in the switch that this node is connected to.
On a simple 1U switch, an administrator can generally enter
the number as printed next to the ports, and xCAT will
understand switch representation differences. On stacked
switches or switches with line cards, administrators should
usually use the CLI representation (i.e. 2/0/1 or 5/8). One
notable exception is stacked SMC 8848M switches, in which you
must add 56 for the proceeding switch, then the port number.
For example, port 3 on the second switch in an SMC8848M stack
would be 59
example: It might be something like this if you defined each switchport. May
have to adjust a little on your end.
[root@mgt21 ~]#tabdump switch
#node,switch,port,vlan,interface,comments,disable
"your_node", "your switch","1/1",,,, < for port 1>
"your_next node", "your switch","1/2",,,, <for port 2>

Subject: [xcat-user] Dell Force 10 discovery problems
Hi All,
Our Dell Force 10 switches have worked well with xCAT for some time.
Recently the
discovery process has stopped working. The only difference between our older
switches
and the newer ones is that the ports are now named GigabitEthernet 1/X instead
of the old
GigabitEtherent 0/X. Could this be the issue?
Otherwise I have tried enabling various print messages in switch.pm, and
MacMap.pm. I
am not a software developer so getting my head around the functions is a bit
hard. I tried
also enabling the xCAT_plugins::switch.pm via xcatdebug -c .. NO DICE.
How, and where should I be looking if I would like to have a good chance at
diagnosing
why the mac lookup fails...
Thank you very much
Gabriel
