Re: [xcat-user] ask for support the hardware raid in genesis image

[Yuan Y Bai]

Hi Peter,

 

You can have a try if you want to add command into genesis image, we do not have x86_64 system to verify:

 

1, copy your command into : /opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/genesis/x86_64/fs/usr/sbin

2, execute "mknb x86_64" command before nodeset command to update network boot root image.

 

 

 

Best Regards

Putting storcli64 in the genesis image should function.  The driver in the genesis image is sufficient to enable storcli64, and it has the needed libraries.

 

Storcli64 is proprietary, so we don’t bundle it in the rpm.

Hi ,All

    I check the xcat document and see that the xCAT have the support PPP64 with iprconfig to configure the Hardware Raid in the genesis image (https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/blob/1ad3a53108739f26531bdd52cd02da8ce68dff40/docs/source/advanced/raid/hardware_raid.rst ) , I would like to know if the genesis image will also support x86_64 system , or is there anyone that can tell me how to integrated the MegaCli64 or storcli64 command into the genesis image so we can setup the Hardware RAID in the node discovery stage . it would be better if we can integrated some command command into the genesis image like the lspci / dmidecode ,thanks
