nodegroup.5¶
NAME¶
nodegroup - a table in the xCAT database.
SYNOPSIS¶
nodegroup Attributes: groupname, grouptype, members, membergroups, wherevals, comments, disable
DESCRIPTION¶
Contains group definitions, whose membership is dynamic depending on characteristics of the node.
nodegroup Attributes:¶
groupname
Name of the group.
grouptype
The only current valid value is dynamic. We will be looking at having the object def commands working with static group definitions in the nodelist table.
members
The value of the attribute is not used, but the attribute is necessary as a place holder for the object def commands. (The membership for static groups is stored in the nodelist table.)
membergroups
This attribute stores a comma-separated list of nodegroups that this nodegroup refers to. This attribute is only used by PCM.
wherevals
A list of “attr*val” pairs that can be used to determine the members of a dynamic group, the delimiter is ”::” and the operator * can be ==, =~, != or !~.
comments
Any user-written notes.
disable
Set to ‘yes’ or ‘1’ to comment out this row.
