From: Ian Jackson <[email protected]> We have been having trouble with our PDU ports: relays are getting stuck. This is affecting a distressing variety of machines and both our PDUs.
We have a theory the relays will work a lot better if we do not open and close them under the load of the main system. Deployment of this change for any one test box is as follows: * plug the test box's management port into the test network * give it an ip address and check that ipmi seems to work * set the test box not to come on after AC power loss * configure the ansible playbook to specify the appropriate config rune (see the final patch). Currently, I have done this for two of our boxes (rimava[01]) which are out of service because of relay trouble. I am about to run a full commissioning test with these changes. Ian Jackson (5): PDU::ipmi: Do not return until the power state has changed PDU::ipmi: Better username/password configuration PowerMethod: New "nest" psuedo-method PowerMethod: New pause functionality PDU::pause: Better pause time configuration Osstest/PDU/ipmi.pm | 28 ++++++++++++++++++-------- Osstest/PDU/pause.pm | 54 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Osstest/TestSupport.pm | 16 +++++++++++++-- 3 files changed, 88 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Osstest/PDU/pause.pm -- 2.1.4 _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel
