Re: [xcat-user] confignics -s -r not removing ib0

Hi Javier,
 
`confignics -r` is only works in this scenario: If the compute node’s nics were configured by confignics and the nics configuration changed in the nics table, user the confignics -r to remove the undefined nic.
 
You can refer to doc: http://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/admin-guides/manage_clusters/ppc64le/diskless/customize_image/network/cfg_second_adapter.html?highlight=confignics#option-r-to-remove-the-undefined-nics
 
 
That means: IB interface should be configured by `confignics` at the beginning. When you delete IB interface from nics table, `confignics -r` should work.  Could you use `tabdump nics` to check your nics table? If it does not work, could you open a issue and describe your steps ?
 
 
Best Regards

Subject: [xcat-user] confignics -s -r not removing ib0

Hello,

 

I am hoping someone can help.

Deploying a host with xcat & the ib0 adapter config file is not being removed

 

 

 

running:

updatenode nodename -P 'confignics -s -r'

 

produces below output:

 

nodename: confignics on nodename: executed script: 'configib -r' to remove all ib nics and configuration files
nodename: nothing to do.

 

 

This is coming from the configib script, but does not remove the ib0 config file from network-scripts

 

 

 

#if $NIC_IBNICS is not defined, all ib nics' configuration files will be deleted.
if [ -z "$NIC_IBNICS" ]; then
    echo "nothing to do."
fi
