So, is the direction to migrate to Confluent rather than xcat? This thread tends to suggest that…

So we can form a community. We've been hijacking the xCAT Users List to talk about Confluent, which is not ideal, IMHO. Theres' other issues in Confluent that halts the use on non Lenovo hardware, specially the branding. What didn't happen on xCAT. But that's it. Technically Confluent as today is superior, we just need to move on properly.

We can spend more time on it and will pivot to at least spend more time, though producing content is not necessarily going to make it very discoverable... So I'm quite concerned about whether we produce good documentation... But I think we'll be able to prioritize at least trying on our end (or if folks have an idea how to better collaborate on that...) ________________________________ From: Vinícius Ferrão <fer...@versatushpc.com.br<mailto:fer...@versatushpc.com.br>> Sent: Friday, October 18, 2024 10:16 AM To: Jarrod Johnson <jjohns...@lenovo.com<mailto:jjohns...@lenovo.com>> Cc: xCAT Users Mailing list <xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net>> Subject: Re: [External] [xcat-user] Fill the VPD table with rinv Hi Jarrod. I'll hack around with chdef: chdef nodeName serial=`rinv nodeName serial | head -1 | awk '{print $5}'` chdef nodeName mtm=`rinv nodeName model | tail -1 | awk '{print $4}'` That worked for me. Confluent is way superior, however this cluster is still on xCAT. Thank you!

It should be reasonably possible to use sed/grep to change rinv output into nodech commands to achieve it. For what it is worth, the confluent 'nodeinventory' command has a '-s' option to do this, but doesn't have anything to do with the xCAT tables. ________________________________ From: Vinícius Ferrão via xCAT-user <xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net>> Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2024 9:29 PM To: xCAT Users Mailing list <xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net>> Cc: Vinícius Ferrão <fer...@versatushpc.com.br<mailto:fer...@versatushpc.com.br>> Subject: [External] [xcat-user] Fill the VPD table with rinv Hello, is it possible to fill the VPD table for a given node with rinv command?
