Chassis Config Script - Partial vs Whole

Dan Robinson_4 — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 18:11:23 GMT

I was wondering if the Chassis Config Script has to have ALL entries populated or can I import a config script with only the settings I wish to change?

If I need to make a quick change to a particular group of fields, like for instance the NTP settings, I am hoping I can just generate a script with JUST those settings and import it into the chassis rather than having to export all the settings, change the NTP stuff and then reimport the whole thing.

I know with iLO XML scripts you can do this but I wasn't sure about the Blade OA since the syntax is different.

Thanks

Hi,

Yes You can, check the config script output from OA, those are invidual "commands" to set specific parameters.

Awesome thanks!

I am hoping to have a site specific script with all the common things like NTP, SNMP, AD Auth, etc and then have a Chassis Specific script with things like IP, Asset Tag and such.

Then I will just import both scripts one after another to deploy a chassis.

Something changes on the Site_Common script, I can change it and reimport to all chassis in that site.
