Hi all,

We have just purchased a rack of SD530 nodes for our cluster. We have been
deploying NextScale nodes for sometime now and are very familiar with the
process. Relatedly, xCAT group had a wonderful document outlining all
stages of NextScale deployment at this page:
https://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/wiki/XCAT_NeXtScale_Clusters/

I am wondering if such page exists for SD530 deployment using xCAT? I
searched for it and I can't find it. We are trying to deploy a single
chassis with 4 SD530 servers and is having little bit of trouble with SMM
and bmcsetup and things like that. Without a complete guide, it's not easy
to figure out how all pieces fit together. For example, is SMM equivelent
to FPC on NextScale, and if so, what is the configfpc equivalent command
for SD530? Also, each SD530 node has two eth ports in it...is one of the
ports IMM/Eth shared port that we run normal bmcsetup against or is the SMM
now a single IMM port that is shared across 4 servers in the chassis?

Things like this are not clear so any help is appreciated.

Thank you.
Damir
